In the wake of the CounterReformation, Cardinal Gabriele Paleotti, the archbishop of Bologna, wrote a remarkable treatise on art during a time when the Church feared rampant abuse in the arts. Translated into English here for the first time, Paleottis Discourse on Sacred and Profane Images argues that art should address a broad audience and explains the painters responsibility to his spectators. The Discourse is introduced by historian Paolo Prodi, who explains howeven if the archbishop did not succeed in reforming the artsPaleottis treatise constituted one last synthesis of art as a reading of creation and salvation history, and sacred art as a vehicle of devotion.
