More about the book
Focusing on the unique interplay between objects and viewer engagement, this monograph reinterprets fifteenth-century northern European art. The author examines both large-scale and small-scale art objects, highlighting their ability to influence movement and interaction. Drawing from an anti-anthropocentric perspective, the work explores the "agency of things" in late-medieval art, revealing how these objects shaped liturgical, devotional, and social behaviors. This innovative approach contributes to contemporary research in early Western art.
