Description

Ad Vivum? examines the Latin term and its European vernacular equivalents - al vivo, au vif, nach dem Leben, and naer het leven - through an in-depth analysis of visual materials created and utilised across Europe before 1800. This scholarly work explores how artists, patrons, and viewers understood and applied concepts of life-likeness across painting, drawing, printmaking, and sculpture. Part of the Intersections series published by Brill, this volume investigates the linguistic and visual frameworks that shaped Renaissance and early modern attitudes towards representation, authenticity, and mimesis. Ideal for art historians, scholars of visual culture, and anyone interested in how European societies conceptualised the relationship between artistic creation and lived experience.
