Description

This scholarly volume from Routledge examines the complex history of copies, imitations, and deliberate forgeries in early modern art from the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries. Through focused case studies, contributors analyse how artists and audiences engaged with the concept of inganno - or deception - in the creation and viewing of artworks across paintings, prints, and sculptures. The essays investigate contemporary sensibilities surrounding the fine line between imitation and fakery, exploring how deception was sometimes regarded as pleasurable or desirable within artistic practice. The collection addresses broader questions about the dissemination, reception, and use of copied works within art history, revealing how Renaissance and baroque societies understood authenticity, originality, and artistic value in ways fundamentally different from modern perspectives.
