« Ce précieux volume, riche d'articles de première importance, constitue néanmoins un nouveau jalon dans l'étude de ce phénomène iconique singulier. » (Nicolas Sarzeaud, in Sehepunkte, 19.12, 2019)
“(…) o livro em recensão é de uma qualidade superior e essencial para os que se dedicam à Cultura Medieval, mas também aos que estudam a recepção da Antiguidade e às origens do cristianismo.” (Nuno Simões Rodrigues, in Cadmo, 40, 2022, p. 266)
