The Visible and the Legible; 4. Flea Catching and the Vanity of Painting; 5. Painting as Portal: "Birth" and "Death" of the Sacred Image; Epilogue; Notes; Selected Bibliography; Index; Color plates. This interdisciplinary study explores George de La Tour's (1593-1652) enigmatic representations of light, vision and the visible in order to question the nature of painting and its religious, artistic and conceptual aspects. Challenging the familiarity of vision, it proposes a spiritual understanding of painting and its engagements with the world |
