Author: Arthur J DiFuria, Ian Verstegen (Eds.)
The essays in this book build on Marcia Hall’s seminal contributions in several categories crucial for Renaissance studies, especially the spatiality of the church interior, the altarpiece’s facture and affectivity, the notion of artistic style and the controversy over images in the era of Counter Reform. Expanding the ideas at the centre of her work, this title achieves a cohesion not usually seen in edited volumes honouring a single scholar. Accruing the advantage of critical engagement with a single paradigm, this volume better assesses its applicability and range. The book works cumulatively to provide blocks of theoretical and empirical research on issues spanning the function and role of images in their contexts over two centuries.
