The secret language of the renaissance

decoding the hidden symbolism of Italian Art

During the Renaissance, artists traditionally encoded meanings into symbols, some of which drew upon a traditional repertoire available to educated people in the era. These hidden messages which ranged from the esoteric to the political to the religious could be communicated in everything from the position of a hand to the placement of the sun and moon. The author, Richard Stemp, teaches you the art of reading these paintings.
