Ut pictura amor: The Reflexive Imagery of Love in Artistic Theory
and Practice, 1500-1700 examines the related themes of lovemaking
and image-making in the visual arts of Europe, China, Japan, and
Persia. The term 'reflexive' is here used to refer to images that
invite reflection not only on their form, function, and meaning,
but also on their genesis and mode of production. Early modern
artists often fashioned reflexive images and effigies of this kind,
that appraise love by exploring the lineaments of the pictorial or
sculptural image, and complementarily, appraise the pictorial or
sculptural image by exploring the nature of love. Hence the book's
epigraph-ut pictura amor-'as is a picture, so is love'.
