Uytbreyding Over De Schilderkonst Der Ouden Appendix 2 Uytbreyding over de schilderkonst der ouden Original Text Vroegste ontwikkelingen1 31 Indien wy de geheele Historie der Schilderkunst wilden ophaalen, dienden wy op te klimmen tot aan Adam, en al geduuriglijk neerwaards te loopen zoeken door de gan- sche Oudheyt: doch by gebrek van Wegwyzers zal men de Reys van een bekender plaats 32 voortzetten, en die plaats oordeelen wy Griekenlant te zijn, | of schoon er veel schijn is om te vermoeden dat de Egyptenaaren die Konst, gelijk als meer andere Konsten en Wetenschappen, vroeger hebben bezêten als de Grieken. Het is ons ongeraaden dat landverschil te beslissen door een beslechtent vonnis, te meer daar dat verschil maar is gesticht op ses duyzent jaaren, die Egypten voorgeeft ouder te zijn in de vinding der Schilderkonst; een getal maklijk te noemen, doch moeijelijk te bewyzen. Het is zeker dat de Nyldrinkers de aldereerste uytvinders zijn geweest van de Starrenkunde, in dien niet van de Schilderkonst, ook was hun Koning Belus den verzinner van het stokken- gevecht, een Krygsoefening waar in de Britten uytmunten, en eenige andere Natien, gelijk als zy noch dagelijks met bebloede koppen komen te bewijzen. De meeste groo- te Grieksche Wysgeeren trokken wel na Egypten, doch zo het ons voorkomt, min om te schilderen, dan om te studeeren, gelyk als wy konnen bewaarheyden met Thales, Pythagoras, Demokritus, Plato, en meer andere Filosoofen; of er nu eenige Schilders of Konstenaaren onder dien troep zich bevonden, konnen wy niet beëedigen. Altoos wy weeten, of ten minsten wy gelooven, dat de Schilderkonst zich eerst heeft neergezet te Korinthen, of te Sicyone, op wiens puynhoopen de Turken een steedje hebben gesticht genaamt Vasilica. Daar is wederom een verschil tusschen die twee Steden over den Voorrang, dewijl er op eene tijd uytneemende braave Schilders waaren in die beyde steden, gelijk als Cleanthus te Korinthen, en Telephanes te Sicyone; doch de Konst ley toen noch maar in de wieg, dewijl die Schilders zich vergenoegden om de omtrekken te tekenen met eene koleur, en die van binnen te schaduwen. 33 Doch alhier past het ons den Leezer te | waarschouwen, dat de Grieken die zich zo zeer beroemen over hun Naauwkeurigheyt in allerhande soorten van zaaken, niet 1 The division of the Uytbreyding in chapters was made by the present author. © Koninklijke Brill NV, Leiden, 2020 | doi:10.1163/9789004421875_011 Lyckle de Vries - 9789004421875 Downloaded from Brill.com09/29/2021 12:14:27AM via free access Appendix 2 Disquisition on the Art of the Ancients Translation Early developments1 If we want to recount the complete history of the art of painting, we would have to 31 climb up to Adam, thence steadily descending to rummage the whole of antiquity. However, for want of signposts, we will start out on our journey from a better known place, which, in my opinion, is Greece, | although there are many indications that the 32 Egyptians knew this art, as well as a number of other arts and sciences, before the Greeks mastered it. We would be ill-advised to pronounce a final judgement in this conflict between two countries, certainly because the dispute is about a mere six thou- sand years. Egypt claims to have invented the art of painting this much earlier, but that number is easier to pronounce than to prove.2 We know for sure that the drinkers of Nile water were the first to invent astronomy, if not the art of painting. Their king Belus introduced fighting with sticks,3 a method of warfare in which the British and some other nations excel, as their blood-stained heads demonstrate until the present day. Most great Greek philosophers went to Egypt, but we assume they did so for their studies, not to practice painting. Thales, Pythagoras, Democritus, Plato and others are there to prove us right, but if there were any painters or artists among them we cannot ascertain. Leaving this aside, we know, or at least we assume, that the art of painting first took root in Corinth or in Sicyon; the Turks founded a small town on Sicyon’s ruins by the name of Vasilica. There is a dispute between both cities about the precedence, because both had commendable painters at the same time: Cleanthes in Corinth,4 for instance, and Telephanes in Sicyon. In their time, however, art was still in her infancy, since those painters were satisfied with drawing outlines, shading them on the inside with one colour.5 | Our readers should be on their guard, however, because the Greeks, who 33 boast their precision in all kinds of matters, disagree on the period in which the art of painting originated and when their first painters earned their fame. The Greeks make 1 The division of the Disquisition in chapters was made by the present author. 2 Pliny 16 mentions Philocles the Egyptian as the possible inventor of line drawing. 3 In Greek mythology Belus, son of Poseidon was one of Egypt’s early kings; Pliny does not mention him. 4 Pliny 16: Aridices the Corinthian. 5 Pliny 16: Ecphantus, the Corinthian, was the first to employ colour upon these pictures.

De Grieken maaken geen gewag van hun Schilders, dan veele (a) Olympiaden na hun Beeldhouwers en Plaatsnyders, dat is te zeggen stiptelijk in de Negentigste Olympiade; en ondertusschen verzekeren zy ons dat Phidias, die een ieder weet gebloeit te hebben in de zeven en tachentigste Olympiade, een Schilder was voor dat hy een Beeldhouwer wiert, en te Athenen heeft gekonterfijt den vermaarden Pericles, bygenaamt den Olympische, wegens de Majesteyt en den Donder van zijn Welsprekendheyt. Voegt er by dat Panenus, den Broeder van Phidias, heeft gebloeit in de drie en zeventigste Olympiade, en zelve het binnenste schilderde van Minervas Schild, zijnde dat schild het onsterflijk werk vab Colotês, een Discipel van Phidias, en zijn Medehulper in het Gebouw van den Olympische Jupiter. Dat alles toont dat er Schilders waaren voor de negentigste Olympiade. Maar hier zal iets fraais voor ’t licht komen. Dat is dat de gant- sche Weerelt weet dat er een oude Schildery van den Schilder Bularchus is geweest, waar op in het kleyn den strijd, of liever den nederlaag der Magneten stont verbeelt, welk tafereel tegens de zwaarte van Goud wiert opgewoogen, gekogt, en betaalt, by (b) Candaules den Koning van Lydien, anders genaamt Myrsiles, den laatste van het geslagt der Hera- (a) Een Olympiade vervat Vier jaaren.

Nu wiert dat stuk waarschijnlijk geschildert ten tijde van Romulus, dewijl Candaules stierf in de Achtiende Olympiade, of zo ik my niet vergrijp, in dat zelve jaar toen Romulus he- melde, als wanneer de Schilderkonst reeds in Italien en elders tot een aanzienlijken trap van volmaaktheyt was opgeklommen. En zo dat waar is, gelijk als daar aan niet kan getwyfelt worden, dan moet men bekennen dat die Konst veel ouder is, als men gemeenlijk die zegt te zijn, en dat die geenen onder de meest afgezonderste Schilders, waar van wy eenige kondschap hebben, zonder dat wy er eenig tijdmerk van konnen aanwyzen, dewelke met een kleur hebben gepenseelt, gedoopt Menochromates, de Voorzaaten waaren van Bularchus, en van alle de Grieksche Schilders. Wy verstaan door die oude Schilders, of zo je wilt, door die eerste Tèkenaars, Hygiemon, Dinias, en Charmades, en onder anderen Eumarus den Athener, die aldereerst de kunnens dorst onderscheyden, en alderhande soorten van Figuuren nabootsen. Voegt er by (a) Cimon van Cleonea, die de denkbeelden des eersten volgde, en die de Konst nog verder uyt- breyde. Want hy was die Cimon die voor alle andere Schilders de tronien van de eene zy, en in ’t gemeen alle andere voorwerpen die zich schuyns vertoonen, behoorlijk wist te verbeelden, en bedacht was om aldereerst zijn Figuuren en zwieren des Hoofds op onderscheyde wyzen te veranderen, die opwaards of neerwaards, of zylings of van Lyckle de Vries - 9789004421875 Downloaded from Brill.com09/29/2021 12:14:27AM via free access Disquisition on the Art of the Ancients 195 no mention of their painters before the ninetieth Olympiad exactly, many Olympiads (a) later than their sculptors and printmakers.6 At the same time, they assure us that Phidias was a painter before he became a sculptor, everybody knowing that he flour- ished in Athens in the eighty seventh Olympiad. Then he painted the portrait of the famous Pericles, surnamed the Olympian on account of the impressiveness and thun- der of his eloquence.7 Moreover, Phidias’ brother Panaenus flourished in the seventy third Olympiad and he painted the inside of the shield of Minerva, an unforgettable work by Colotes, a pupil and assistant of Phidias, when the last worked in the build- ing of the Olympian Jupiter.8 The above proves that Greece had painters before the ninetieth Olympiad. But now we will present you with something special. It is generally known that there once was an old small-scale painting by Bularchus, depicting the battle or rath- er the Defeat of the Magnetes. This work was bought and paid for with the painting’s weight in gold by Candaules alias Myrsilus, (b) king of Lydia, last scion of the lineage of the Heraclids; (a) An Olympiad comprises four years. (b) The same king who exposed his naked queen to Gyges.

  • Two Books on Ancient Perspective Illustration Jim Barnes, Architect -- 2Nd August 2011
    REVIEW: Two books on ancient Perspective illustration Jim Barnes, Architect -- 2nd August 2011 Alan M.G. Little; Roman Perspective Painting and the Ancient Stage , 1971, ~71 pages. John White; The Birth and Rebirth of Pictorial Space , 1957, Chapter XVI, 36 pages. These are two good books by two very fine researchers; and I recommend them for the study of ancient Greek and Roman perspective illustration. Alan M.G. Little’s career goes back to the 1930s when he received grant funding to research ancient Greek and Roman theater while serving on Harvard’s faculty. His lifetime study in this specialty led to this 1971 publication on Roman painting. Little starts by explaining that prior archaeological expertise sorted the ancient Roman frescos of Pompeii into four epochs, called “Styles”. His book goes on to provide compelling reason to believe that certain Roman frescos, especially during the Second Style epoch, are reproductions of ancient theatrical stage sets. Citing Plutarch’s biography of Alcibiades (c. 450-404 B.C.), Little recites the historical account of theater scenery first being transplanted onto the walls of ancient Athenian homes. We have no surviving Greek wall paintings today, but we know that Roman murals were copied repetitively, the same picture often copied in several places, even among the tiny number of Roman specimens surviving to our modern age. Greek stage set design similarly followed a conservative tradition; a single format was used repeatedly; while only details were varied. Quoting ancient sources, such as Plato’s Republic (c. 380 B.C.), Alan Little shows how the archetypical elements of Greek stage sets appear in Roman murals.

  • Antiquity and the Middle Ages 7 Chapter 1 Antiquity and the Middle Ages
    Antiquity and the Middle Ages 7 Chapter 1 Antiquity and the Middle Ages The Shield of Achilles Ancient Greece and Rome produced a large and varied literature about the visual arts, but little is left of it, and the only theoretical text to survive in its entirety is the treatise On Architecture by Vitruvius. Writings of the kind we would classify as theoretical, critical, and even art-historical were in existence by the fifth century bce – associated with the “high classical” phase of Greek art – and continued to be produced throughout antiquity, but what we know of them comes to us in the fragmentary form of citations in texts of other kinds: any effort to discuss systematic thought about art in the ancient world has to be built around the ideas of philo- sophers such as Plato and Aristotle, and of rhetorical theorists such as Cicero and Quintilian, authors whose interest in visual art was fairly tangential to their work as a whole. Before attempting to do this, however, it is useful to consider the evidence of what might be called unsystematic thought: ancient literature also records ideas about art that reflect broadly based, “popular” attitudes, and these can be seen as the ground from which more sophisticated thought grew. Some of these ideas continued to be of concern down to the modern period, so that they were assumed to constitute the perennial or universal sources of art’s interest. The importance of the visual arts in the ancient world, their nearness to life as lived and imagined, is suggested even in myth.

  • The Scenery of the Greek Stage
    THE SCENERY OF THE GREEK STAGE. WHILE most of the dispositions of the ancient Greek theatre have been submitted in recent years to a searching examination, the question as to the scenery used as a background to plays has been somewhat neglected. It seems to me that a fresh enquiry on this particular point may be of service. I must preface this enquiry by a statement of the view which I adopt as to the presence or absence of a raised stage in the Greek theatre, since it is obvious that any theory as to scenery must depend in a great degree upon the solution of the stage question which is adopted. It is quite impossible on this occasion to discuss fully the question whether the place of the actors in Greece was the orchestra or the Xoyelov. I can only say that I assume the latter view to be correct. I think that from the time of Aeschylus onwards the stage, which had at first been a low platform of varying size, grew steadily in height as the part of the actors in the performance grew more important, and their independence of the chorus more complete. And as the stage grew higher it also grew narrower by an obvious necessity, until we have the long narrow stone stage of the Hellenistic age, which exactly corresponds with the assertions of Vitruvius and other ancient authorities. * In the last few months a fresh piece of evidence, which tends strongly to confirm this view, has been brought forward. Mr. Fossum,1 who was engaged in 1891 on behalf of the American School of Athens in excavating the theatre at Eretria, has now declared his conviction that he discovered there remains of the elcricvic\r)/ji,a, a pair of parallel lines of slabs of bluish marble on which the eicicv/c\7)/Aa ran backwards and forwards between the skene' and the proscenium.

  • The Attitude of Marcus Tullius Cicero to Greek Art*
    Elżbieta Woźniak Uniwersytet Marii Curie-Skłodowskiej, Lublin THE ATTITUDE OF MARCUS TULLIUS CICERO TO GREEK ART* This great orator, philosopher, scholar and at the same time a statesman, is one of the best-known figures in the period of the Late Republic owing to the fortunate preservation of his rich and diverse works until the present time. That is why ancient historians refer to his testimony in many of their studies. When investigating the problems connected with the Late Republican art, it is essential that we focus attention on the views and attitude of this eminent representative of nobilitas towards Greek art. In his speeches, and oratorical and philosophical works Cicero reveals two somewhat different attitudes towards art. When he tries to be more of an advocate and moralist in the spirit of Roman traditionalism and practicalism, he shows detachment from the matters of art. For example, he finds it right to worship the statues built in memory of the citizens who served the Republic well1 but he adds that the works of painters and sculptors are not essential for the fame of eminent people2. In another work he says that equally unreasonable are those who delight too much in statutes, paintings, decorative silver articles, Corinthian vases, and sumptuous houses3, even if they wish to emphasize their dignity and position in the State in this way. At this point he points to L. Mummius, who scorned all of Corinth4. This statement requires an extensive comment: Mum- mius spurned the magnificent works of art from Corinth, having kept nothing for himself but bringing these spoils to Rome to adorn the temples and squares in the capital.

  • Tragic Themes in Large Paintings. from the Work on the New Overbeck
    Hyperboreus Vol.16-17 (2010-2011) “VARIANTE LOQUELLA” 232 Bernd Seidensticker Bernd Seidensticker TRAGIC THEMES IN LARGE PAINTINGS. FROM THE WORK ON THE NEW OVERBECK Johannes Overbeck’s Antike Schriftquellen zur Geschichte der bildenden Künste bei den Griechen of 1868 has been – and still is – an essential work-tool not only for all disciplines of Altertumswissenschaften, but also for art history and many other areas of the cultural sciences. But time has taken its toll: After almost 150 years, the increase in the pertinent material and in our knowledge of Greek art and the considerable changes in the qualifi cations and needs of the different users call for a substantial philological and archaeological revision of the book to turn the collection of sources into a modern interdisciplinary research tool. A small group of philologists, archaeologists and epigraphers in Berlin1 have undertaken this task and are presently working to update – or perhaps rather to replace – the Old Overbeck. The most important steps of the revision are: 1. The addition of new or overlooked testimonia Overbeck has 2400 testimonia (plus a supplementum of about 100). We will be able to add approximately 500 new literary testimonia. They come from new texts, yet unknown to Overbeck, as e. g. Herondas’ Mimiamb IV (with the mention of the sons of Praxiteles and of Apelles) or the New Poseidippos which contains nine epigrams on masterpieces of sculpture, among them statues, about which we had no previous knowledge – like the Tydeus (or perhaps a group of the Seven against Thebes) by Myron (Nr. 69 AB), or the statue of the poet Philitas by Hecataeus (Nr.

    Hyperboreus 18:1 (2012) Antonio Corso THE EDUCATION OF ARTISTS IN ANCIENT GREECE Introductory Remarks The aim of this article is to collect the written evidence which may help us to understand what type of education and training ancient Greek artists enjoyed throughout the different ages and in the most important artistic centres. As I shall point out several documents may be also enlightening about the relations between masters and pupils and may indicate the infl uence of philosophical ideas on this phenomenon. I believe that this topic has been little studied and that several relevant sources have not yet been fully used in order to enhance our knowledge of this issue.1 These considerations hopefully justify the present study of this topic. Masters and pupils in the workshops of artists of archaic Greece In archaic Greece the rivalry among craftsmen who work with the same materials and the same techniques was very harsh. 1 I delivered lectures on the education of ancient Greek artists in the University of Pavia in March, 2007 as well as at Saint-Petersburg, in the Bibliotheca Classica, in September, 2007. I thank Prof. Harari, who invited me to deliver my lecture in Pavia, as well as Profs. Kazansky, Gavrilov, Verlinsky, who encouraged me to talk about the results of my research in Saint-Petersburg. About workshops in ancient Greece, see S. Nolte, Steinbruch – Werkstatt – Skulptur (Göttingen 2006) 9–303 who cites the most important previous bibliography. About workshops of painters see A. Anguissola, “La bottega dell’artista”, in: C. Gallazzi and S. Settis (eds.), Le tre vite del Papiro di Artemidoro (Milan 2006) 124–131 with relevant previous bibliography.
