Reviews

This excellent collection of essays-well organized, carefully edited, and generously illustrated-is a welcome and salutary reminder that iconographic studies, allied with other methodologies and buttressed by meticulous research, can achieve genuinely fresh and even brilliant insights into a wide variety of medieval images and their multiple meanings. -Richard K. Emmerson, author of Apocalypse Illuminated: The Visual Exegesis of Revelation in Medieval Illustrated Manuscripts This collection offers a stimulating overview of current methods of iconographic research. The authors offer focused and rewarding case studies that address broadly varied material and periods, and they productively situate their work in dialogue with traditional and innovative approaches. -Erik Inglis, author of Jean Fouquet and the Invention of France: Art and Nation after the Hundred Years War
