Very little coming up on JSTOR, and not particualrly mentionned in Royal River catalogue.
Are there references in the Royal Accounts regarding construction and decoration of barges?
Were artists such as Giovanni da Maiano ever employed in deocrating specifically barges? (re-visit biogrphical sources)
Were there are any authoratative texts that circulated europe-wide on barge design?

Dissertation thoughts - Maritime Theme
1) Comparison of medieval and early modern MARITIME CODES AND STATUTES?
Braudel draws on these at vol.1, p.248, his source being J.M.Pardesssus, Collection de lois maritimes, 1837 (BL holds copies)
Were these in Latin? Does Pardessus have one for England?
2) Activity of watermen in Plantaganet London? Can their records be used to shed light on the movements of Humph DoG and his Italian humanists collaborators?
3) Royal River Cat. – Tudor & Stuart Sections
- comparisons between Livery companies and Florentine/Venetian guilds?
- how early did liv.co.s barges feature wooden carved saints, and how did reformation affect this practise?
