Images within Images: Exploring Composite Icons

The Icon Museum and Study Center

The talk focuses on "composite icons"– icons consisting of two panels, usually made at different times, joined together by inserting the smaller icon into a larger panel. It presents the internal diversity of the phenomenon and reinterprets the act of insertion in order to provide a better understanding of this unusual way of reusing icons.
