The guest editorial by Joseph Koerner which opens this 24th issue of Res re-examines the vexed question of the relation between theory and practice. Directly related to this is Alexander Nagel's study of Leonardo's sfumato technique and Emily Umberger's analysis of Verlaquez's problematic painting Los Borrachos. Indra K. McEwen's article on Emperor Hadrian's building schemes is also based on the concepts of theory and practice. The issue also includes articles on Central-Asiatic imagery, archaeological and historical records of the representation of sexual and vitalistic powers and the relationship between Krasner and Pollock.

This is volume 23 of Res, which is a twice-yearly publication of anthropology and comparative aesthetics dedicated to the study of the object, in particular cult and belief objects and objects of art.
