It has been suggested that the interdisciplinary project of is no longer organized on the model of (as were the disciplines of art history, architectural history, film history, etc.) but on the model of anthropology. Hence, it is argued by some that visual culture is in an eccentric (even, at times, antagonistic) position with regard to the new art history with its social-historical and semiotic imperatives and models of context and text

Rembrandt, un maître dans son atelier
Très tôt l'art de Rembrandt est apparu unique en soi. Si l'on prend deux portraits réalisés par des peintres hollandais, il ne semble guère difficile de dire lequel est de Rembrandt (fig. 1, 2). L'arrière-plan assombri ou obscur sur lequel le couple amoureux se détache pour apparaître en pleine lumière, la palette limitée, les teintes peu nombreuses modelées en une matière richement travaillée, et surtout la présence de ce couple immobile qui nou…

Describe or Narrate? A Problem in Realistic Representation
HEN GIOVANNI PIETRO BELLORI, the leading Roman art critic and theorist of the second half of the seventeenth century, came to write his Lives of the greatest artists of his time, he somewhat grudgingly, and against his taste, included an account of Caravaggio.

Ever since Burckhardt, our consciousness and u…
