The complex interrelationship between figurative art and dramatic art is one of the major questions of historiographic analysis, from the studies by Emile Male, George Kernodle, Pierre Francastel and Ludovico Zorzi, until the present days: not the scenography and the theatrical stagecraft in a narrow context, but figurative art not directly connected with theatre production.This essay proposes some innovative methodological considerations in order to trace the reasons which lie behind the need to bring together the study of theatrical performances and of iconographic evidence
La complessa interrelazione tra arti figurative e arti dello spettacolo è una delle questioni principali dell'analisi storiografica, dagli studi di Emile Male, George Kernodle, Pierre Francastel e Ludovico Zorzi, fino ai giorni nostri: non la scenografia e la scenografia teatrale in senso proprio, ma l'arte figurativa non direttamente connessa con la produzione teatrale. Questo saggio propone alcune considerazioni metodologiche innovative per rintracciare le ragioni che stanno alla base della necessità di collegare lo studio delle rappresentazioni teatrali e quello delle testimonianze iconografiche
