[Blog Post] An Allegory of Salvation (Koen Gheuens & Cary Rapaport)

[DONJCH]

Koen I read your article when it was first put up but got interrupted before I could reply.
I reckon you could be on to something there and at the very least it provides a decent unifying model for further research.

Working with Cary is a stroke of genius too. We the viewers look and say "It means this!" or "It means that!" when the whole point is that it means both. That's what artists do. The ambiguity is intentional.

The objection is that this is medieval, but in actual fact the Renaissance started well before the dates usually given.
