Choosing ten symbols from the natural world (the sun the shell the bird) & ten man-made (the window the book the mirror) Francoise Barbe-Gall illuminates our understanding of how these have been used & developed in art from the fifteenth to the twenty-first century with sixty-eight wonderfully vivid examples. Painting has always made abundant use of forms & objects to convey abstract ideas: love hope for eternal life loyalty or betrayal. These recurring motifs which were familiar to many in the past have mostly become mysterious to the audiences of today.
