Abstract
This article examines the genesis and development of the expression «stenografia pittorica», which has been crystallised in art criticism in reference to Filippo de Pisis following a contribution by Cesare Brandi, who had in turn internalized Sergio Solmi’s assertions. The construct, tied to a network of interrelated metaphorical systems and other recurring linguistic and stylistic motifs, has been propagated throughout the realms of art and literary criticism and the poetic output of numerous critics and poets, most notably that of Eugenio Montale. The spread of this expression reveals a series of continuous refractions that go beyond traditional distinctions between professional and non-professional criticism.
