"Unger achieves a generous and fresh analysis of this notoriously fraught aspect of seventeenth- century art historiography, which he proves is overdue for revisionist inquiry. He succeeds in demonstrating the vital need to recalibrate the conventional lexicon of terminology typically used to (pejoratively) uphold status quo narratives." -- James R. Jewitt, The Sixteenth Century Journal, vol 3, no2., Summer 2022
