La main humaine, flexible, mobile et sensible, est un élément fascinant et unique de la nature. Sa forme et sa fonction pratique et sociale ont inspiré d'innombrables artistes à travers l'histoire. Ce livre explore les représentations de la main humaine et du gant comme accessoire de prédilection, dans l'art allant du XVIIe siècle à nos jours. Richement illustré, il offre un panorama de périodes et de médias tels que le dessin, la gravure, la peinture, la vidéo et la sculpture qui démontre le pouvoir créatif et métaphorique de la main humaine en tant que motif dans l'art. Les essais explorent la symbolique riche et variée entourant les mains et les gants et jettent en particulier un nouvel éclairage sur l'œuvre du peintre expressionniste autrichien Oskar Kokoschka (1886-1980).
