Demonstrates how much early modern science owed to an unlikely source: artists and artisans. Including nearly 200 images of artisans' objects alongside their writings, this work also demonstrates that artisans viewed knowledge as throughly rooted in matter and nature. It provides examples of this Renaissance synergy among art, craft, and science.
