Description The affectivity of works of art and the affective response to them remain a difficult subject for art history and theory. Among the key issues for art history and theory are questions such as: What constitutes the affectivity of the image? The essay focuses on these issues by considering a few micro case studies through the prism of the emerging theory of affective response to images.
