Abstract

Despite the affinities in contents and ambitions that link the Iconologia of Cesare Ripa and the studies initiated by Aby Warburg, the critical fortune of the ancient text in the varied field of iconological studies in Twentieth Century was hindered by a methodological gap, which has not been investigated. Some writings published in the Seventies by Ernst Gombrich, the latest representative author of that intercontinental line of research, are able to fill that gap as they recover and reassess the importance of Cesare Ripa’s Iconologia for coeval iconological studies and finally bring out its methodological value.
