Brings to light the significant influence of Boccaccio's text on the representation of classical heroines in Renaissance art. The author demonstrates that "Famous Women" was employed as a guide by patrons and artists to draw the teeth from the challenge of powerful women by co-opting their stories into the service of Italian standards.
