How have the concepts of law and justice been represented in (public) art from the Late Middle Ages onwards? Justices and rulers had their courtrooms, but also churches, decorated with inspiring images. At first, the religious influence was enormous, but starting with the Early Modern Era, new symbols and allegories began appearing. Throughout history, art has been used to legitimise the act of judging, but artists have also satirised the law and the lawyers; architects and artisans have engaged in juridical and judicial projects and, in some criminal cases, convicts have even been sentenced to produce works of art. The book illustrates and contextualises the various interactions between law and justice on the one hand, and their artistic representations in paintings, statues, drawings, tapestries, prints and books on the other.Ius Gentium: Comparative Perspectives on Law and Justice,1534-6781 ;66Law—PhilosophyLawConflict of lawsConflict of lawsCultural studiesTheories of Law, Philosophy of Law, Legal Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R11011Private International Law, International & Foreign Law, Comparative Law https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/R14002Cultural Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22040Law—Philosophy.Law.Conflict of laws.Conflict of laws.Cultural studies.Theories of Law, Philosophy of Law, Legal History.Private International Law, International & Foreign Law, Comparative Law .Cultural Studies.344.43097Huygebaert Stefanedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMartyn Georgesedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtPaumen Vanessaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBousmar Ericedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtRousseaux Xavieredthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910299862203321The Art of Law2065553UNINA
