'... this book should be part of any reading list on objects in the early modern period.' Sixteenth Century Journal 'This bold and distinctive volume is a welcome departure from the traditional historiographical preoccupation with Reformation iconoclasm. It contributes to a recent wave of interest in the modification and re-contextualisation of visual art that occurred in response to the processes of reform and counterreform in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, but offers something new by shifting the focus to the reception of artefacts and buildings over time. In so doing it engages in ’a global conversation about the nature of art, religion and cultural property’ (p. 17), exploring the indissoluble connections between art, faith and ideology from the early modern period up to the present day.'
