It highlights the crucial role played by her elite patrons and the sophisticated cultural circles in which she worked, and also offers a new history of the \u003cem\u003eAphrodite Kallipygia\u003c\/em\u003e motif (\"Venus with the Beautiful Bottom\"), bringing together the relevant imagery and texts to trace its development and significance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the book's heart is a previously unknown painting depicting three female nudes. Unpublished and unstudied until now, the work demonstrates extraordinary finesse and technical precision. Its unusual support, which subtly reflects the viewer, heightens the painting's sense of intimacy and invites a direct encounter with the figures—one of whom is identified as Maria de' Medici, soon to be Queen of France. The book traces the far-reaching implications of this striking identification and the iconographic innovations the painting introduces. A second key work, \u003cem\u003eMars and Venus\u003c\/em\u003e, is newly attributed to Fontana.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48038333677804,"sku":"9781915401298","price":107.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781915401298-lavinia-fontana.jpg?v=1785392126"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/dal-pozzolo-enrico-maria.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
