The paper should not exceed 3000 words and must include:
A short summary of the known facts about the selected art work, i.e. authorship, dating, place of production, patronage, place of actual conservation etc. (please indicate the bibliography you consulted to collect the information);
A thorough visual analysis (description) of the architectural elements represented;
A recovery of all the possible architectural sources for as much architectural elements as you can;
A reflection about the ‘meaning’ of the presence of architecture in the choosen work (answering the following questions should help: in which way the architectural setting contributes to the visual structure of the represented scene? Does the architecture help in indicating a definite place or epoch, or the passing of time? How does the interplay between represented architectural elements and actual ones – if any, like an original framing, for instance – function?...).
