Shows how, once an art work is seen and understood, communicative function is effectively added to the work. This book also shows a range of language in art - from the magical to impious, from the ambiguous to the didactic, from the scientific to the propagandistic. It includes over one hundred illustrations as an integral part of the discussion.
