Thank you Ellen, wish I had found your instructional videos sooner. They give added benefit and provide excellent foundation for practice and discussion in the class room.
Thank you so much Ellen. I have been looking for such a simplified version for a long time. Most scholars struggle to draw a clear line between iconography and iconology which makes the whole thing confusing.
I like this video, however at 5:36 you state that "An iconological analysis decodes the message or ideas the artist was trying to communicate". Iconological analysis, however, can come from what the artist has subconsciously communicated.
in 1997 they discovered that Arnolfini married Jeanne in 1447, thirteen years after the portrait was done, suggesting that this was not a marriage certificate, or affidavit, as Panovsky called it. It was documented by Lorne Cambell in 1998, the book is called The Fifteenth Century Netherlandish Paintings.
vinceven, you are quite right about that research ad I know the text well. Of course, scholars are still not in any broad agreement about what the painting is for and is about. I appreciate the comment. If the video were entirely about the portrait, I would certainly been bringing up these issues. I put these videos together most for my students and I am more concerned about the process of the analysis than any specific content. I am pleased, however that you took the time to watch and critique. I plan, eventually to redo them all so comments are valuable.

Thanks, Charles! I think the difference is not hugely important unless one is getting into deep scholarly waters. But I am glad you found it helpful!
Very detailed. Thank you
Finally, an explanation that I understand :D Thank you!!
You are entirely welcome. I wish someone had methodically taught me this too! But now you have a new skill you can use and customize!
