Allegory and the migration of symbols1977

Rudolf Wittkower

About this book

"This book has a taxonomy of sets of similar symbols with which the history of their locations, uses, and meanings can be put together to see the whole. Well researched and written/translated. Not a dictionary of symbols with definitions, or even an encyclopedia - more like a collection of specific histories."--Amazon. Fourteen essays written between 1937 and 1970.
