Abstract

This essay probes the political and ideological status of such images in the officially Calvinist state after 1579. Focusing on the relationship between representations of the body of dead priests and the collective body of Catholic believers, Marquaille’s essay addresses one visual expression of the paradoxical situation whereby Catholics were reduced to minority status, not in numbers but through restrictions on public worship, including the public display of images. These prohibitions on the display of images notably extended to funerary rites, which were strictly regulated. This repressive context, according to Marquaille, gave rise to the posthumous clerical portrait as a new class of image with specific resonance for the emergent Dutch Catholic community. While Protestants shunned the representation of mortal remains, Dutch Catholics in particular came to embrace such depictions as an affirmative and distinctive feature of their newly proprietary visual culture.

天主教的体现天主教信仰的
本文探讨了1579年后这些形象在加尔文主义国家的政治和思想地位。马奎尔的文章关注的是死去的牧师尸体的表现与天主教信徒集体之间的关系,阐述了一种矛盾局面的视觉表达,即天主教徒被沦为少数民族的地位,不是在数量上,而是通过限制公共崇拜,包括公开展示图像。这些对展示图像的禁令特别延伸到葬礼仪式,这是严格管制的。根据Marquaille的说法,这种压抑的背景导致了死后神职人员肖像作为一种新的图像类别,与新兴的荷兰天主教社区产生了特殊的共鸣。新教徒避开了对人类遗体的描绘,而荷兰天主教徒则特别接受了这种描绘,认为这是他们新近专有的视觉文化的一种肯定和独特的特征。
