Abstract

The Iconologia of Cesare Ripa represents a fundamental text to understand the exegetical selection processes that distinguish the perception of Classicism in the Renaissance. The objective of this contribution focuses on the figure of Venustà, in an attempt to understand what are the ways and cultural processes that lead Ripa to build this allegorical image.
