为绘画作品命名是如何影响其在整个现代历史中的接受程度的

一幅画的标题往往是我们理解它的**个指南。然而，并不是所有的话都有标题，许多画作的名字是从策展人、经销商和版画家那里获得的，而不是创作这幅画的艺术家。《画名》对西方绘画的命名方式进行了独特的历史研究，展示了这种做法是如何根据现代艺术世界的条件而发展的，以及标题是如何影响从勃鲁盖尔和伦勃朗时代到现在的艺术作品的接受情况的。

《画名》研究了从文艺复兴时期到今天的西方绘画，为我们解释和欣赏视觉艺术的方式带来了新的启示。

How the practice of titling paintings has shaped their reception throughout modern history

A picture's title is often our first guide to understanding the image. Yet paintings didn’t always have titles, and many canvases acquired their names from curators, dealers, and printmakers―not the artists. Taking an original, historical look at how Western paintings were named, Picture Titles shows how the practice developed in response to the conditions of the modern art world and how titles have shaped the reception of artwork from the time of Bruegel and Rembrandt to the present.

Examining Western painting from the Renaissance to the present day, Picture Titles sheds new light on the ways that we interpret and appreciate visual art.
