Poets on Paintings cover

Ekphrasis, the description of pictorial art in words, is the subject of this bibliography. More specifically, some 2500 poems on paintings are catalogued, by type of publication in which they appear and by poet. Also included are 2000 entries on the secondary literature of ekphrasis, including works on sculpture, music, photography, film, and mixed media.

“recommended”—Choice; “a unique resource that would be appropriate for an academic or museum library”—ARBA; “[W]e are extremely impressed with this volume. It is a seminal addition to ekphrastic scholarship”—Laverne and Carol Frith, editors of Ekphrasis: A Poetry Journal.
