Professor Slim deals here with the several roles that music can
play in the artworks of the Renaissance, looking in particular at
Italian painting of the 16th century. For understandable reasons,
art historians sometimes neglect the role of music and, especially,
that of musical notation when studying works of art. These studies
not only identify musical compositions, wholly or partially
inscribed in paintings - and tapestries, ceramics, prints as well -
but also seek reasons why these particular musical compositions
were included and analyse their relevance to the scene depicted.
Furthermore, as many of these studies show, identifying a musical
composition, especially if it has a text, leads to the formation of
ideas about iconographical functions and thus augments
interpretations of the visual art.
