Pregnancy, an erased beginning – See the visible in the invisible

The author develops a reflection on the irrepresentable of pregnancy in Renaissance painting, investigating the after effects it might have today. Interdictions related to the Council of Trent might still be somewhat current. However, today’s research on the psychological life of the woman who has conceived via medically-assisted procreation shed light upon mortiferous problem complexes paradoxically related to the act of giving life.
