The article suggests that the pictorial turn and the recent configuration of the visual studies field have stimulated (rather than caused) a more ancient and well-established relationship between historians, art historians, and visual sources. As for the studies on the long Nineteenth Century, historians should now produce more close and perhaps nuanced analysis both on the concrete practices of perception and on the autonomy of the visual dimension.

Keywords: Pictorial Turn, Periodization, Visual Practices, Long Nineteenth Century, Seriality
