Devotional Portraiture and Spiritual Experience in Early Netherlandish Painting de Ingrid Falque

Devotional Portraiture and Spiritual Experience in Early Netherlandish Painting: Brill's Studies in Intellectual History / Brill's Studies on Art, Art History, and Intellectual History, cartea 299/38

Autor Ingrid Falque
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 sep 2019
In Devotional Portraiture and Spiritual Experience Ingrid Falque analyses the meditative functions of early Netherlandish paintings including devotional portraits, that is portraits of people kneeling in prayer. Such paintings have been mainly studied in the context of commemorative and social practices, but as Ingrid Falque shows, they also served as devotional instruments.
By drawing parallels between the visual strategies of these paintings and texts of the major spiritual writers of the medieval Low Countries, she demonstrates that paintings with devotional portraits functioned as a visualisation of the spiritual process of the sitters.

The book is accompanied by the first exhaustive catalogue of paintings with devotional portraits produced in the Low Countries between c. 1400 and 1550. This catalogue is available at no costs in e-format (HERE) and can also be purchased as a printed hardcover book (HERE).

Recenzii

“With Falque’s lucid description of the complex visual language of the paintings, this project will be appreciated by art historians already familiar with the pictorial conventions of the era but it will also serve as an effective lens for scholars in neighboring disciplines – especially those concerned with devotional literature – who seek to explore the participation of the visual arts in theological and devotional discourse.”
Mitzi Kirkland-Ives, Missouri State University. In: HNA Reviews, April 2020.

“A monumental achievement.”
