This article focuses on the issue concerning the interaction between different media, functioning as components of a single work of art. The authors consider a non-canonical case of intermediary relations between literature and painting, more particularly, a case when a phenomenon of verbal culture becomes the subject of a pictorial representation. The material of the research is a picture of the Italian Renaissance painter Andrea del Sarto Portrait of a Woman with a Volume of Petrarch (1528). It is proved that the image helps clarify the implications of the literary work. The authors conclude that the image of the reader serves as a commentary to the contents of the book depicted, and also helps understand the nature of its perception by contemporaries. This becomes possible as the painting in question is placed against a broad aesthetic background — the context of the presentation of the book and reading in European Renaissance painting.
