Inventing the Renaissance Putto - Bettie Allison Rand Lectures in Art History
Charles Dempsey
The putto (often portrayed as a mischievous baby) appears frequently in the art and literature of Renaissance Italy. The ""spiritelli"" embody a minor species of demon, neither good not bad. This book discusses the manifestations of the putto-spiritello in 15th-century art and literature.
