Overview
When we say that love is blind or time flies - making disembodied ideas sound like living beings - we are using the language of allegory and incidentally bringing abstract notions within the scope of the visual arts. Painters in the past, and commercial artists today, have relied on allegory to create message pictures. Once thought to rival literary works or political oratory in influence and prestige, such paintings, with their references to ancient myth, the Bible or medieval astrology, can all too often puzzle some modern viewers.
