| Abstract: | This paper seeks to discuss the significance of a select group of altar paintings as commissions in response to the 1614 razzia. It seeks to read the history of the razzia and its aftermath through the evidence which the paintings provide, in visual and document form, define the profiles of some of the patrons behind particular altar paintings and how their views and direct experience of the 1614 razzia relate to their painting. |
