I"m about to send this book back to the UGA library (ya gotta love InterLibrary Loan!). Not only does it have an enormous collection of paintings that I've never seen before, it also has a picture of, well, a sweater.
Figure cption reads "Women's camicola or knitted jacket. First quarter of seventeenth century. Florence, Museo Stibbert. "Camicola knitted in red and gold silk, made my male professionals. This type of garment, already present in Eleanora's wardrobe, is recorded with increasing frequency in the documents of the second half of the century."
