| Summary: | The point of departure for this article is Visión y símbolos en la pintura española del Siglo de Oro, Julián Gállego's study that has most interested literary historians of the same period. The narrow relationship between painting and literature is analyzed through the declarations of theoreticians of painting (Pacheco, Carducho) and literature (López Pinciano, Cascales), as well as renowned writers: Lope de Vega, Jáuregui, Quevedo, Calderón. Coincidences between both arts are examined in terms of their use for commemorative and didactic functions, and in relation to the three main pictorial genres: portrait, landscape (or interior scenes), and still life (descriptions of food, frequently in taverns), or in symbolic accumulations of objects, so characteristic of baroque hyperbole. The examples have been chosen from: Lope and Quevedo; the Avisos de José Pellicer; the picaresque novel; Maria de Zayas; novels of manners (Remiro de Navarra and Zabaleta); and finally Cervantes. |
