Ut pictura amor: The Reflexive Imagery of Love in Artistic Theory and Practice, 1500-1700 examines the related themes of lovemaking and image-making in the visual arts of Europe, China, Japan, and Persia. The term ‘reflexive’ is here used to refer to images that invite reflection not only on their form, function, and meaning, but also on their genesis and mode of production. Early modern artists often fashioned reflexive images and effigies of this kind, that appraise love by exploring the lineaments of the pictorial or sculptural image, and complementarily, appraise the pictorial or sculptural image by exploring the nature of love. Hence the book’s epigraph—ut pictura amor—‘as is a picture, so is love’.

Recenzii

“extremely stimulating […] Ut pictura amor delivers a richly rewarding, interdisciplinary look at the different ways love was understood and visualized in the early modern period.” - Jeffrey Chipps Smith, University of Texas at Austin, in: Jounal of Jesuit Studies, Vol. 5, No. 2 (2018), pp. 324-326 [DOI: 10.1163/22141332-00502005-13]
“Meticulously researched, beautifully illustrated and with a thematic coherence rarely found in edited volumes, this volume presents its central argument with flair and erudition. Although at over 750 pages it is not for the faint- hearted, the consistently high standard of the contributions provides a compelling insight into the relationship between art and love, and the complexity of the affective viewing experience, in early modern northern art.” - Lisa Beaven, La Trobe University, in: Emotions, Vol. 2, No. 2 (2018), pp. 352-354
