>The historian Bill Kent has noted "the tendency, ubiquitous in 
>medieval society, to see areas of feeling and experience through 
>kinship colored glasses," but art historians have hardly noted that 
>imagery with genealogical content was everywhere in the Middle Ages:

>Holladay will examine this phenomenon, considering some specific 
>examples, their audiences, functions, and social or political contexts.
