Seller's Description:
VG-(Ex-art-library with few marks, bookplate & pocket. ) Blue & illus. boards, 436 pp., 156 BW illus., 25 color plates. Series: Proteus: Studies in Early Modern Identity Formation, volume 2. "Contributes to an ongoing interdisciplinary discussion of the changing functions, meanings, and values of material and mental images in early modern art and religious practice. Centering on various sets of art works and artefacts--indulgenced prints, illustrations in meditation treatises, sculptural ensembles for a Sacro Monte, wax works on a miniature scale, and fire and hell scenes by Flemish artists--[Gottler] argues that the imagery of the Last Things was linked to key problems of visual representation and to an increasing awareness of the artwork as a site of communication and exchange."
