Simultaneously, artists and the public became increasingly interested in the depiction of specific body parts or excretions. This book explores the concept of indecency and its relation to the human body across drawings, prints, paintings, sculptures, and texts. The ten essays investigate questions raised by such objects about practices and social norms regarding the body, and they look at the particular function of those artworks within this discourse. The heterogeneous media, genres, and historical contexts north and south of the Alps studied by the authors demonstrate how the alleged indecency clashed with artistic intentions and challenges traditional paradigms of the historiography of Early Modern visual culture. 410 0$aVisual and material culture, 1300-1700 ;$vVolume 40. 606 $aArt, European 606 $aHuman beings in art 606 $aObscenity (Aesthetics) 615 0$aArt, European. 615 0$aHuman beings in art. 615 0$aObscenity (Aesthetics) 676 $a709.4 702 $aJonietz$b Fabian 702 $aRichter$b Mandy 702 $aStewart$b Alison G. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910796061403321 996 $aIndecent Bodies in Early Modern Visual Culture$93671761 997 $aUNINA
