Description
This innovative new volume explores one of the most crucial elements in art creation and reception: scale. It examines how scale has influenced audiences' perceptions of specific works, taking a comparative approach to various forms, including Islamic architecture and contemporary photography.
A global perspective is presented through examples from ancient Egypt, eighteenth-century Korea, and contemporary Europe, offering a comprehensive understanding of the role of scale in art history.
