Morten Steen Hansen aims to reopen the question of Mannerism and societal crisis through an examination of artistic response to the Sack of Rome by imperial troops in 1527. Perceived on Italian soil as Lutheran iconoclasm, the Sack led to artists’ reinvestment in cult images to which miraculous agency was attributed.
