Abstract
"The Dionysos Archive: a Methodological Approach to Theatre Iconography. The article illustrates the Dionysos Digital Archive of Theatrical Iconography, created by the research team of the University of Florence directed by Renzo Guardenti.

Keywords: theatre iconography; history of theatre; performing arts; digital archive; cataloguing "
