Item description from seller

Good Condition. Wear and tear on cover. Sticker residue on cover. Please see photos for visual details. Studies in Iconology: Humanistic Themes in the Art of the Renaissance (1972) by Erwin Panofsky is a landmark work of art history that explores the meanings, symbols, and intellectual traditions underlying Renaissance art. Panofsky, one of the most influential art historians of the twentieth century, examines how paintings and other works of art communicate ideas through imagery, allegory, and cultural references. The book investigates themes drawn from classical mythology, Christian theology, and Renaissance humanism, demonstrating how artists incorporated philosophical and literary ideas into their visual compositions. Panofsky's approach helped establish iconology as an important method for interpreting artworks within their broader historical and intellectual contexts.
