The care and repair of works of art, broadly known as art conservation, is an activity as old as art-making. Art objects grow old, and while some last for centuries, others last for only a few years.

When serious damage has occurred, either through again or some catastrophic event, what can be done to restore the object's former beauty?
These questions lie at the heart of conservation efforts, and just as medical sciences have led to longer, healthier lives... The care and repair of works of art, broadly known as art conservation, is an activity as old as art-making. Art objects grow old, and while some last...

ISBN: 9789004215153 / Angielski / Twarda / 710 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book examines scriptural authority and its textual and visual instruments, asking how words and images interacted to represent and by representing to constitute authority, both sacred and secular, in Northern Europe between 1400 and 1700. Like texts, images partook of rhetorical forms and hermeneutic functions - typological, paraphrastic, parabolic, among others - based largely in illustrative traditions of biblical commentary. If the specific relation between biblical texts and images exemplified the range of possible relations between texts and images more generally, it also operated...

The Sunday Christ: Sabbatarianism in English medieval wall painting
ISBN: 9781841710402 / Angielski / Miękka / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book addresses a particular form of medieval imagery found in parish churches from the mid-14th century that was designed to reach a literate and illiterate audience of parishioners. The Sunday Christ' imagery contains the same basic elements, depicting Christ with a series of tools. These images were to teach the parishioners that the use of such tools was forbidden on holy days (Sabbath-breaking), something which would perpetuate the suffering of Christ, as at the crucifixion. Athene Reiss discusses examples of these images found in England and Wales, the variations in their content,...
