Since its original publication, Erwin Panofsky's "Meaning in the
Visual Arts" has been standard reading for students of art history.
It is both an introduction to the study of art and, for those with
more specialized interests, a profound discussion of art and life
in the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Panofsky's historical technique
reveals an abundance of detail, detail he skillfully relates to the
life and work of individual painters and their times.
The papers in this volume represent a cross-section of Panofsky's
major work. Included are selections from his well-known "Studies in
Iconology" and "The Life and Art of Albrecht Durer," plus an
introduction and an epilogue--"The History of Art as a Humanistic
Discipline" and "Three Decades of Art History in the United States:
Impressions of a Transplanted European"--as well as pieces written
especially for this collection. All display Panofsky's vast
erudition and deep commitment to a humanistic conception of art and
art history.
