Panofsky E. Meaning in the Visual Arts. Papers in and on Art History

Anchor Books, 1955. — 364 p.The essays collected in this little volume have been chosen for variety rather than consistency. They range over a period of more than thirty years and deal with general problems as well as special topics involving archaeological facts, aesthetic attitudes,
iconography, style, and even that "theory of art,” now largely obsolete, which in certain periods played a role analogous to that of harmonics or Counterpoint in music.
