Studio preliminare sulla commitenza artistica femminile nella Sardegna tra X e XI secolo

Abstract

In Sardinia many are the medieval fragments recovered in currently destroyed churches and frequently recognized as out of context. Therefore, specialists find it difficult to proper investigate artefacts such as the Greek-Sardinians epigraphs. Some of those report the men and women names who probably were part of the aristocratic families that ruled the island. Comparing Sardinian evidences with the ones found in south Italy could allegedly provide responses about this period. Moreover, it might be significantly effective in order to reveal all the connections between artistic patronage and women in Sardinia.
