One of the most prominent French art historians of the second half of the 20th century, Daniel Arasse (1944-2003), in a short book first published in 2000, closely analyzes several classic paintings of the 16th-17th centuries, including such textbook works as Titian's Venus of Urbino and Velázquez's Meninas.The book is organized in the form of letters to a student, written in a relaxed and engaging manner, and shows how the most insignificant, at first glance, details can be of great importance in art, and how fruitful an iconological approach with elements of semiotics can be when applied to them.
