Summary note
"Mor's arresting portraits of princes, prelates, artists and merchants are considered in dialogue with his intriguing religious paintings, extending the medieval link between mimesis and devotion into the new era of art. Francisco de Holanda's treatise on portraiture, the first to survive since antiquity, is also brought into play in examining how a mirror-like painting could be regarded as both transparent to its authorizing model and the work of its author's mind and hand." "In a series of fascinating case-studies marking different moments in Mor's exceptionally varied and peripatetic career, Woodall envisages an early modern semiotic regime that, like the classical concept of friendship, had room for distinct positions and enabled beholders to entertain the shifting connections between their own 'exterior' face and 'inner' virtue."--BOOK JACKET.
