I see the WP article has #Siena, Italy listed as one centre of #RenaissanceHumanism.So excited.
This just has to (figure of speech) explain the paintings that were made in Siena.
There is a modern #Book, #Literature, called #AMonthInSiena that centres around those paintings.

The metaphors and allegories in those paintings seem utterly subversive. The author confines himself to only milder interpretations.
I won't go there either.
