Visual Culture and Art Theory

The article presents and interprets the engraving De smalle en de brede Weg (The narrow road and the broad way) by Hieronymus Wierix, created in 1600 in the city of Antwerp, in those days under Spanish rule. Its purpose is to analyze an example of the religious visual culture with possible influence in the Americas and colonial Brazil. In methodological terms, it follows the three steps of interpretation of Renaissance religious art proposed by Ernst Panofsky: a pre-iconographic description, an iconographic analysis, and an iconological interpretation.
