A Cross-Disciplinary Approach to Visual Culture Before 1600
Studies in Iconography (ISSN 0148-1029) is an annual publication housed at the Index of Medieval Art at Princeton University since October 1999. It is dedicated to publishing innovative work on iconography and other aspects of visual culture of the period up to 1600. Past articles have dealt with subjects as diverse as Byzantine fresco programs, Carolingian architectural diagrams, Jewish ritual images, and the iconography of Raphael. These topics are approached from an interdisciplinary, theoretical, or critical perspective by a range of established and emerging scholars. Reviews of published studies in iconography and art history are included in every volume.
