Such paintings have been mainly studied in the context of commemorative and social practices, but as Ingrid Falque shows, they also served as devotional instruments.\u003cbr\u003e By drawing parallels between the visual strategies of these paintings and texts of the major spiritual writers of the medieval Low Countries, she demonstrates that paintings with devotional portraits functioned as a visualisation of the spiritual process of the sitters.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The book is accompanied by the first exhaustive catalogue of paintings with devotional portraits produced in the Low Countries between c. 1400 and 1550. This catalogue is available at no costs in e-format (HERE) and can also be purchased as a printed hardcover book (HERE).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ingrid Falque\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004369759\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004369757\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/19\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.30w x 0.80d","brand":"Ingrid Falque","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44075253727487,"sku":"9789004369757","price":162.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_016929c4-4971-45b8-a009-dc90e30e9aae.jpg?v=1685458484","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/devotional-portraiture-and-spiritual-experience-falque-9789004369757","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
