Using art as a living testimony of bygone time, this work offers detailed explanations of the social and historical contexts of painting.
Is the bride pregnant? What are clogs doing in a marriage picture? Why is just one candle burning in the chandelier? And what does the mirror in the background reveal?
Rose-Marie and Rainer Hagen provide answers to these and other questions about world-famous works of art. Guiding our eye to revealing details, they also shed fascinating light on fashions and lifestyles, loves and intrigues, politics and people, and transform our encounter with art into an exciting adventure.
