Sabina de Cavi’s Architecture and Royal Presence: Domenico and Giulio Cesare Fontana in Spanish Naples (1592-1627) is an exemplary interdisciplinary study of the relationship between politics and art history. No finer or more vivid investigation exists of the role of the Spanish viceroyalty in Neapolitan architecture during its formative years. It offers an unparalleled examination of the viceregal claims to legitimacy, casts brilliant light on the relationship between architecture, etiquette and ceremonial, and makes clear the critical role played in these developments by the remarkable architecture of Domenico and Giulio Cesare Fontana.
