| Early Modern Visual Allegory |
|
|
’Each of the essays makes a valuable contribution to our thinking about the potential and the instability of allegory. The broad scope of these case studies, which span the sixteenth through the early twentieth centuries, counts among the strengths of the volume, as the reader is challenged to compare and reconsider the nature of visual allegories over nearly five centuries of the visual tradition in Europe, as well as in the New World. Not only do the essays remind us of the playfulness of allegory, but they also expand our appreciation of the broader visual culture that shaped both the making and the interpretation of allegorical images in the early modern era.’ Renaissance Quarterly
