Symbolismen var den fremherskende strømning i dansk kunst omkring 1900. Hos de kunstnere, der blev del af bruddet med naturalismen i 1890’erne, oplevede man en fornyet dyrkelse af tegnekunsten, og den formmæssige præcision i tidens billeder var påfaldende. Men hvad var hensigten med denne optagethed af veldefinerede plastiske og todimensionale former, detaljer og dekorative helhedsvirkninger? ”Hieroglyffer” søger svaret i periodens litteratur og hos kunstnere som bl.a. Vilhelm Hammershøi, L.A. Ring, J.F. Willumsen, Johannes Holbek og Jens Lund.

Hieroglyphs seeks answers to this question in literature from the period and in artists such as Vilhelm Hammershøi, L.A. Ring, J.F. Willumsen, Johannes Holbek and Jens Lund.
