The dynamic of revealing/hiding characterizes both pre-modern pictorial practices and a peculiarity of pre-modern pictorial concepts, which derive from the tension between presence and withdrawal. For the first time, this volume presents interdisciplinary contributions from the field of pre-modernity with regard to the dynamics of unveiling/concealing, which are decisive for various pictorial phenomena, and thus presents different approaches that make the topic fruitful as a central moment for pre-modernity: for pictorial practices in their immediate social, religious, and historical contexts as well as for the conceptual-historical relevance of unveiling/concealing, which ultimately decides what is or can be an image in the respective cultural context.
