The implication is that scholars believe that his nobility had little bearing on his artistic career. I shall argue the contrary: Michelangelo’s nobility had a profound impact on his career. Michelangelo came not simply from a noble family, but from one that had lost its wealth, and, therefore, its relevance among the Florentine patriciate. In this paper, I will discuss how this condition caused a crisis of identity in the Florentines who suffered from it, and resulted in a characteristic raison d’être specific to these individuals. In doing so, I will detail the ways in which Michelangelo was affected by this condition. From this exploration, I conclude that one of Michelangelo’s primary goals throughout his life was to restore his family’s prior status within Florence’s patriciate, and that Michelangelo saw his career and used it as a means to this end. In the process of building these arguments, I reconsider some major themes central to previous analysis of Michelangelo: his poverty and attitude toward money, and his biography (especially as seen through Condivi’s account), in addition to his artistic accomplishments. By considering Michelangelo in these terms, I propose a view of an artist deeply involved in a quest not only to fulfill an aesthetic vision, but, by securing a reputation for artistic brilliance, to restore his family and his own estate to its historical position within Florence’s upper echelons. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES .................................................................................................................v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.....................................................................................................vi Introduction..............................................................................................................................1 Chapter 1 The Noble Origins of the Buonarroti Family and their Descent into the Poveri Vergognosi .......................................................................................................................16 Chapter 2 Poverty as Performance..........................................................................................25 Chapter 3 Biography as Performance .....................................................................................64 Chapter 4 Art as Gloria...........................................................................................................90 Conclusion ...............................................................................................................................106 Bibliography ............................................................................................................................109 Appendix..................................................................................................................................117 v LIST OF FIGURES Figure 3-1: Michelangelo Buonarroti, Battle of the Centaurs, 1492.

It is through our mutual love of art that I feel connected to you. And, it is through my work as an art historian that I hope to honor your memory and can only imagine to match your intellect and your sophistication; I dedicate this thesis to you. Introduction Michelangelo (1474–1564) is probably the most written about artist in the field of art history; thousands of publications have been dedicated to his personality and oeuvre. Except for William Wallace and Rab Hatfield who both began publishing on the topic during the first two years of the millennium, almost nothing has been written about his identity as a nobleman. Those academicians who have addressed his nobility have done so only in passing, typically in biographies about the artist for the purpose of introducing his origins, as John Addington Symonds did in The Life of Michelangelo Buonarroti (1928).1 Michelangelo descended from a noble family, but its position had been compromised, so it existed on the shamed margins of the nobility at the time of his birth. This background and the lack of more sustained research into the 1 John Addington Symonds, The Life of Michelangelo (New York, Modern Library, 1928), 1–3. Symonds devotes only two pages out of 544 to Michelangelo’s nobility. He uses this history to provide background information about Michelangelo family before he discusses Michelangelo’s birth and childhood. This history, in other words, serves no agenda in Symonds’s biography. He begins the biography: “The Buonarroti Simoni, to whom Michelangelo belonged, were a Florentine family of ancient burgher nobility. Their arms appear to have been originally ‘azure two bends or.’ To this coat was added ‘a label of four points gules inclosing three fleur-de lys or.’ That augmentation, adopted from the shields of Charles of Anjou, occurs upon the scutcheons of many Guelf houses and cities.” To this Symonds adds a few comments about the alliance Michelangelo made with the Count of Canossa to claim that they share part of their lineage, and a brief account of a couple of the positions Michelangelo’s ancestors held in the Florentine government. 2 impact this position had on his oeuvre suggests that art historians have found little reason to think that such facts are relevant to understanding his artistic achievements. Instead, his background as a member of a family that had experienced a humiliating drop in social status is taken as an unremarkable fact of his origin. It is subsequently ignored as having had little bearing on his sense of artistic purpose and artistic production. The following comment by Charles de Tolnay represents this prevailing outlook: It is significant, however, that young Michelangelo did not feel bound to class prejudices, as is shown by the fact that he chose his art as his vocation against the wishes of his father and uncle, who regarded it as unworthy of the prestige of their house. Michelangelo on the other hand seems to have been proud of it, so that for a long time he signed his letters ‘Michelangelo scultore.’ He did not care for social conventions, since he liked to be with artisans, stonecutters, and lowly artists; that is, lower-class people.2 Tolnay acknowledges Michelangelo’s patrician origins and recognizes that his artistic career deviated from an acceptable career choice for a Florentine patrician, but he assumes that Michelangelo chose this path, in part, because

This dissertation seeks to challenge the argument that the cardinal virtues, as described by humanists like Leonardo Bruni and Matteo Palmieri, were models of behavior that only men adhered to. Elite men and women alike embraced the same civic ideals of prudence, justice, fortitude, and temperance. Although they were not feminists advocating for social changes, women like Alessandra Strozzi, Margherita Datini, and Lucrezia Tornabuoni had a great deal of opportunity to actively support their own interests and the interests of their kin within popular cultural models of civic virtue.

Taking the considerable critical investment in the affective dimension of Ferrante’s work as a point of departure, my dissertation examines the representation of emotions in My Brilliant Friend and in two Italian novels written between the 1960s and the 1970s – La Storia (1974, History: A Novel) by Elsa Morante (1912-1985) and L’arte della gioia (The Art of Joy, 1998/2008) by Goliarda Sapienza (1924-1996).

    International Journal of Art and Art History December 2018, Vol. 6, No. 2, pp. 22-30 ISSN: 2374-2321 (Print), 2374-233X (Online) Copyright © The Author(s).All Rights Reserved. Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/ijaah.v6n2p4 URL: https://doi.org/10.15640/ijaah.v6n2p4 Cellini vs Michelangelo: A Comparison of the Use of Furia, Forza, Difficultà, Terriblità, and Fantasia Maureen Maggio1 Abstract: Although a contemporary of the great Michelangelo, Benvenuto Cellini is not as well known to the general public today. Cellini, a master sculptor and goldsmith in his own right, made no secret of his admiration for Michelangelo’s work, and wrote treatises on artistic principles. In fact, Cellini’s artistic treatises can be argued to have exemplified the principles that Vasari and his contemporaries have attributed to Michelangelo. This paper provides an overview of the key Renaissance artistic principles of furia, forza, difficultà, terriblità, and fantasia, and uses them to examine and compare Cellini’s famous Perseus and Medusa in the Loggia deiLanzi to the work of Michelangelo, particularly his famous statue of David, displayed in the Galleria dell’ Accademia. Using these principles, this analysis shows that Cellini not only knew of the artistic principles of Michelangelo, but that his work also displays a mastery of these principles equal to Michelangelo’s masterpieces. Keywords: Cellini, Michelangelo, Renaissance aesthetics, Renaissance Sculptors, Italian Renaissance 1.0Introduction Benvenuto Cellini was a Florentine master sculptor and goldsmith who was a contemporary of the great Michelangelo (Fenton, 2010). Cellini had been educated at the Accademiade lDisegno where Michelangelo’s artistic principles were being taught (Jack, 1976).

  • Michelangelo Biography
    Michelangelo Biography Michelangelo (1475 – 1564) Italian Renaissance sculptor, painter, poet and architect. One of the most influential Western artists of all time. “I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free. “ – Michelangelo Short biography of Michelangelo Michelangelo Buonarroti was born on 6 March 1475, in a Florentine village called Caprese. His father was a serving magistrate of the Florentine Republic and came from an important family. However, Michelangelo did not wish to imitate his father’s career, and was attracted by the artistic world. At the time, this was considered an inferior occupation for a family of his standing. But, aged 13, Michelangelo was apprenticed to Domenico Ghirlandaio, the leading fresco wall painter in Florence. Here Michelangelo learned some of the basic painting techniques, and also taught himself new skills such as sculpting. Madonna of the stairs – Michelangelo’s earliest works His talents were soon noticed by one of the most powerful families in Florence – Lorezo de’ Medici. Here, at de Medici’s court, Michelangelo was able to learn from the classic Masters and he became determined to improve upon the great classics of Greek and Latin art. Michelangelo, was born in the heart of the Renaissance movement, at exactly the right place – Florence. But, despite being at the heart of the Renaissance, Florence was undergoing tremendous political turmoil. His first patrons, the de Medici’s, lost power and Michelangelo was forced to look elsewhere for commissions. In 1496, he travelled to Rome where he began a long relationship of doing commissions for the Popes who were making St Peter’s Basilica a pinnacle of Western art.

Latency of visual studies within the Vienna School of Art History? Abstract This article investigates a research method of the so-called Vienna School of Art History, mainly its transformation by Max Dvořák around the First World War. The article suggests the possible influence of Georg Simmel’s philosophy on Dvořák in this time, evident mainly in Dvořák’s interpretation of Pieter Bruegel the Elder’s art, written by Dvořák in 1920 and published posthumously in 1921. This another view on the Vienna School of Art History is then researched in writings on Pieter Bruegel the Elder by Dvořák’s students Hans Sedlmayr and Charles de Tolnay when Tolnay extended Dvořák’s thinking and Sedlmayr challenged its premises – both Tolnay and Sedlmayr thus in the same time interpreted Bruegel’s art differently, even though they were both Dvořák’s students. The article then suggests a possible interpretative relationship of the Vienna School of Art History after its transformation by Max Dvořák with today’s approaches to art (history), mainly with the so-called visual studies.

  • Rethinking Savoldo's Magdalenes
    Rethinking Savoldo’s Magdalenes: A “Muddle of the Maries”?1 Charlotte Nichols The luminously veiled women in Giovanni Gerolamo Savoldo’s four Magdalene paintings—one of which resides at the Getty Museum—have consistently been identified by scholars as Mary Magdalene near Christ’s tomb on Easter morning. Yet these physically and emotionally self- contained figures are atypical representations of her in the early Cinquecento, when she is most often seen either as an exuberant observer of the Resurrection in scenes of the Noli me tangere or as a worldly penitent in half-length. A reconsideration of the pictures in connection with myriad early Christian, Byzantine, and Italian accounts of the Passion and devotional imagery suggests that Savoldo responded in an inventive way to a millennium-old discussion about the roles of the Virgin Mary and Mary Magdalene as the first witnesses of the risen Christ. The design, color, and positioning of the veil, which dominates the painted surface of the respective Magdalenes, encode layers of meaning explicated by textual and visual comparison; taken together they allow an alternate Marian interpretation of the presumed Magdalene figure’s biblical identity. At the expense of iconic clarity, the painter whom Giorgio Vasari described as “capriccioso e sofistico” appears to have created a multivalent image precisely in order to communicate the conflicting accounts in sacred and hagiographic texts, as well as the intellectual appeal of deliberately ambiguous, at times aporetic subject matter to northern Italian patrons in the sixteenth century.2 The Magdalenes: description, provenance, and subject The format of Savoldo’s Magdalenes is arresting, dominated by a silken waterfall of fabric that communicates both protective enclosure and luxuriant tactility (Figs.

The Emperor drew his sword from its sheath, and it was magnificently ornamented with gold and precious stones. Then said Messer Azzolino: it is very fine, but mine is finer by far. And he drew it forth. Then six hundred knights who were with him all drew forth theirs. When the Emperor saw the swords, he said that Azzolino’s was the finer.1 In the harsh conflict opposing the Guelphs and Ghibellines – a conflict of utter importance for the late medieval and early modern history of Italy and Europe – the feudal lord Ezzelino sends the Emperor a clear message: honours, reputation, nobility, beauty, ultimately rest on force.

  • Following the Early Modern Engraver, 1480-1650 September 18, 2009-January 3, 2010
    The Brilliant Line: Following the Early Modern Engraver, 1480-1650 September 18, 2009-January 3, 2010 When the first engravings appeared in southern Germany around 1430, the incision of metal was still the domain of goldsmiths and other metalworkers who used burins and punches to incise armor, liturgical objects, and jewelry with designs. As paper became widely available in Europe, some of these craftsmen recorded their designs by printing them with ink onto paper. Thus the art of engraving was born. An engraver drives a burin, a metal tool with a lozenge-shaped tip, into a prepared copperplate, creating recessed grooves that will capture ink. After the plate is inked and its flat surfaces wiped clean, the copperplate is forced through a press against dampened paper. The ink, pulled from inside the lines, transfers onto the paper, printing the incised image in reverse. Engraving has a wholly linear visual language. Its lines are distinguished by their precision, clarity, and completeness, qualities which, when printed, result in vigorous and distinctly brilliant patterns of marks. Because lines once incised are very difficult to remove, engraving promotes both a systematic approach to the copperplate and the repetition of proven formulas for creating tone, volume, texture, and light. The history of the medium is therefore defined by the rapid development of a shared technical knowledge passed among artists dispersed across Renaissance and Baroque (Early Modern) Europe—from the Rhine region of Germany to Florence, Nuremberg, Venice, Rome, Antwerp, and Paris. While engravers relied on systems of line passed down through generations, their craft was not mechanical.
