O Lord, save your people and bless your inheritance. To you, O Lord, I have cried, O my God. The reading is from St. Paul's Letter to the Ephesians 2:4-10 Brethren, God who is rich in mercy, out of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up with him, and made us sit with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not your own doing, it is the gift of God: not because of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. Gospel Reading Luke 18:18-27 At that time, a ruler came to Jesus and asked him, "Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone. You know the commandments: 'Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honor your father and mother.' " And he said, "All these I have observed from my youth." And when Jesus heard it, he said to him, "One thing you still lack.

  • Saint Peter and Saint Paul EL GRECO from the State Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg Rome 15 December 2019 - 5 March 2020
    2019 Saint Peter and Saint Paul EL GRECO From the State Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg Rome 15 december 2019 - 5 march 2020 2 The show is the second event in a three-year collaboration between the Fondazione Alda Fendi – Esperimenti and the famous Russian museum. A prestigious agreement arising from a desire to increase cultural dealings between Italy and Russia, through the exhibition of masterpieces from the State Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg. After the great success of the previous year, when the exhibition of Michelangelo’s Crouching Boy attracted over 22,000 visitors, the 2019 choice is a genuine tribute to the city of Rome. The subjects of the masterpiece – Saint Peter and Saint Paul – are the patron saints of the Italian capital, and their showing at the palazzo rhinoceros established them as “tutelary deities” of the space and, by extension, the city of Rome. The exhibition, promoted by the Fondazione Alda Fendi – Esperimenti and the State Hermitage Museum, and organized by Il Cigno GG Edizioni in collaboration con Ermitage Italia and Villaggio Globale International, is akin in ideal terms to the El Greco retrospective held at the Grand Palais in Paris. 3 THE WORK Having entered the collections of the museum on the banks of the Neva in Saint Petersburg in 1911, a gift from Pëtr Pavlovič Durnovo, governor-general of Moscow during the Russian Revolution of 1905, the work is usually on display in the museum’s room of Spanish masterpieces, next to one of the Skylight Halls characterizing the so-called New Hermitage built between 1839 and 1851.

Traveling from the Museo e Real Bosco di Capodimonte in Naples, the exhibition offers a rare opportunity to see works by significant Italian, French, and Spanish artists who worked in Italy including Artemisia Gentileschi, El Greco, Parmigianino, Raphael, Guido Reni, Jusepe de Ribera, Titian, and more. The Capodimonte Museum is a royal palace built in 1738 by Charles of Bourbon, King of Naples and Sicily (later King Charles III of Spain). The core of the collection is the illustrious Farnese collection of antiquities, painting, and sculpture, formed in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and inherited by Charles of Bourbon. Italian and Spanish masterpieces of the Baroque period, grounded in realism and produced in Naples, build on this foundation. The Farnese collection traces a century of creativity, inspiration, and a constant search for beauty, followed by masterpieces of the Baroque era characterized by grandeur, dramatic realism, and theatricality. This exhibition marks the first time that this many works from the Capodimonte Museum will travel together at the same time.

  • El Greco's Espolio
    Introibo ad Altare Dei: El Greco’s ‘Espolio’ in the Context of Church and State in Post-Tridentine Spain By ROBERT FRANCIS SWAIN A thesis submitted to the Department of Art in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston Ontario Canada August, 2011 Copyright © Robert Francis Swain, 2011 Abstract In the vestry of the cathedral church of Santa Maria in Toledo hangs a large painting by El Greco entitled El Espolio, the ‘Disrobing of Christ’. Executed shortly after his arrival in Spain the painting marks a major stylistic departure from the artist’s earlier work and would command attention on that basis alone. The subject, while iconographically obscure, is, at another remove, utterly familiar as a Passion scene tied to a well known iconographical canon. Compositionally, the Christ figure predominates but the ‘legionnaire’ occupies a contrasting and almost equivalent space in his carapace of steel. These figures beg for further elaboration I will argue that this painting can be read as a nexus between a reformed liturgy and a post-Tridentine programme of Church renewal in Spain allied to a monarchical programme of nación under Philip II (1527-98) that was essentially one and the same. The salient questions needing a response are these: How, in a vestry, can we expect such a subject to have much impact beyond the very limited audience it was designed for? This is the crux of the matter in many ways. What in the painting suggests more than the straightforward analysis of the subject matter? What in the times suggests another reading of this great work of art? The pursuit of the answers to these questions constitutes the driving force behind this investigation.
