The purpose of this paper is to show the argument-establishing features of a Renaissance altarpiece. Looking to Panofsky’s seminal studies and to more recent contributions, this essay shows how in a special environment like the Florentine pre-Renaissance, people could easily relate to the evocative and contrastive potential of images. In the Santa Lucia de’ Magnoli Altarpiece painted by Domenico Veneziano we see an interesting dialogue between the main piece and the predella panels. This juxtaposition can be formalized into a basic argumentative text.

多梅尼科·韦内齐亚诺 (Domenico Veneziano) 的早期文艺复兴祭坛画：视觉论证的一个案例？

本文的目的是展示文艺复兴时期祭坛画的论证建立特征。回顾 Panofsky 的开创性研究和最近的贡献，这篇文章展示了在像佛罗伦萨文艺复兴前这样的特殊环境中，人们可以很容易地将图像的令人回味和对比的潜力联系起来。在 Domenico Veneziano 绘制的 Santa Lucia de' Magnoli 祭坛画中，我们看到了主要作品和 predella 面板之间的有趣对话。这种并置可以形式化为基本的论证文本。
