After understanding what imagery is (read here) and also

Method (step 2) – adaptation Introduction The construction of the method for creating OldNewBox biblical illustrations is divided into four steps, the first three of which are strictly theoretical.

This series of articles, divided into four parts, is therefore intended for those who, in addition to consuming OldNewbox visual material, seek to delve deeper into its motivations and intentions. Previously, in the first text of this series, we observed what the
