As a noun, it refers to an object, symbol, or animal commonly associated with a specific person, often used in art to identify figures, such as a lion with St. Mark. As a verb, it means to assign a work of art to a particular artist, usually based on stylistic analysis or other evidence, such as attributing a painting to an artist based on its technique and composition.
