SynopsisCosme Tura came to prominence as a painter to the Este court in the city of Ferrara, a major cultural and artistic centre of Renaissance Italy. This book offers a wide-ranging approach to Tura's life and his enigmatic and stylistically idiosyncratic works., Amajor study of Cosm Tura (c.1430-1495) who came to prominence as painter to the Este court. As well as close examination of his paintings, Tura's life and works are used as a starting point for the investigation of the 15th cent artist's role and status at court, and urban culture.
