16th C Florentine: Moda di Firenze These are both "clothing oriented" but both have tons of pics. You can also look on line and find thousands of pics in museums and art sights.

I believe it's by Roy Strong (it's at home, I'm here and I haven't looked at it for a while). The up side: it's got practically every portrait you've ever wanted painted in England in the 16C. The downside: that it's been out of print forever, it's hard and expensive to find and it's all in black and white. I lucked out and bought a first edition from someone's library before they put it up for sale several years ago. Even then, it was pricy.
