Coombs, Bryony. 2013. Double Vision: Viewing and Visualisation in the Monypenny Breviary. (My doctoral thesis examines interest in the visual arts by patrons of Scottish descent, active in France, c.1445 to c.1545: the Monypenny family, Bérault and Robert Stuart d'Aubigny, and John Stuart, Duke of Albany. During this period the Auld Alliance played a key role in relations between Scotland and France, and large numbers of Scots travelled to France as mercenaries, scholars, and diplomats. Many relocated to France permanently and were granted letters of naturalisation). Edinburgh, Scotland: edinburgh.academia.edu/BryonyCoombs |
