In this second volume of his classic essays on the Renaissance, E H
Gombrich focuses on a theme of central importance: visual
symbolism. He opens with a searching introduction ('The Aims and
Limits of Iconology'), and follows with detailed studies of
Botticelli, Mantegna, Raphael, Poussin and others. The volume
concludes with an extended study of the philosophies of symbolism,
demonstrating that the ideas which preoccupied the philosophers of
the Renaissance are still very much alive today. Like its
predecessor, Norm and Form, this volume is indispensable for all
students of Renaissance art and thought as a work that has itself
helped to shape the evolving discipline of art history. Reflecting
the author's abiding concern with standards, values and problems of
method, it also has a wider interest as an introduction to the
fundamental questions involved in the interpretation of images.
