  • The Unification of Violence and Knowledge in Cornelis Van Haarlem’S Two Followers of Cadmus Devoured by a Dragon
    History of Art MA Dissertation, 2017 Ruptured Wisdom: The Unification of Violence and Knowledge in Cornelis van Haarlem’s Two Followers of Cadmus Devoured by a Dragon Cornelis van Haarlem, Two Followers of Cadmus Devoured by a Dragon, 1588 History of Art MA – University College London HART G099 Dissertation September 2017 Supervisor: Allison Stielau Word Count: 13,999 Candidate Number: QBNB8 1 History of Art MA Dissertation, 2017 Ruptured Wisdom: The Unification of Violence and Knowledge in Cornelis van Haarlem’s Two Followers of Cadmus Devoured by a Dragon Striding into the wood, he encountered a welter of corpses, above them the huge-backed monster gloating in grisly triumph, tongue bedabbled with blood as he lapped at their pitiful wounds. -Ovid, Metamorphoses, III: 55-57 Introduction The visual impact of the painting Two Followers of Cadmus Devoured by a Dragon (figs.1&2), is simultaneously disturbing and alluring. Languidly biting into a face, the dragon stares out of the canvas fixing the viewer in its gaze, as its unfortunate victim fails to push it away, hand resting on its neck, raised arm slackened into a gentle curve, the parody of an embrace as his fight seeps away with his life. A second victim lies on top of the first, this time fixed in place by claws dug deeply into the thigh and torso causing the skin to corrugate, subcutaneous tissue exposed as blood begins to trickle down pale flesh. Situated at right angles to each other, there is no opportunity for these bodies to be fused into a single cohesive entity despite one ending where the other begins.

  • Federico Etro and Elena Stepanova the Market for Paintings in The
    Federico Etro and Elena Stepanova The Market for Paintings in the Netherlands during the Seventeenth Century ISSN: 1827-3580 No. 16/WP/2013 Working Papers Department of Economics Ca’ Foscari University of Venice N o . 16/ WP/ 2013 ISSN 1827-3580 The Market for Paintings in the Netherlands during the Seventeenth Century Federico Etro University of Venice, Ca’ Foscari and Elena Stepanova S. Anna School of Advanced Studies, Pisa This Draft: July 2013 Abstract We analyze the price of paintings in Dutch inventories and auctions of the Golden Age. The econometric investigation emphasizes correlations between prices adjusted for inflation and characteristics of the paintings, of the painters, of the owners (job, religion, size of the house) and, in case of auctions, also of the buyers. Price differentials for alternative genres, for the characteristics of the traders and the purpose of the inventory tend to disappear after con-trolling for the unobservable quality of paintings with artists fixed effects. The real price of a representative painting declined over the XVII century. We argue that initial high prices were the fruit of the large increase in demand by the Dutch middle class, which attracted en - dogenous entry of painters. This led to intense competition and the development of cost-saving innovations for mass production (high specialization in genres, smaller paintings, mo -nochromatic styles) so as to gradually reduce prices. We also run a multinomial probit model to verify the Montias hypothe sis on the location of painting s between rooms of Dutch houses.

  • The Best of TEFAF Maastricht 2020 – Part One Susan Moore
    ART MARKET The best of TEFAF Maastricht 2020 – part one Susan Moore 4 MARCH 2020 Sammelband (detail; 1525–28), Albrecht Dürer. Dr Jörn Günther Rare Books at TEFAF Maastricht, €280,000 This month, the city of Maastricht once again hosts the flagship fair of the European Fine Art Foundation (TEFAF) – still the continent’s pre-eminent marketplace for art and antiques. From 7–15 March, 280 dealers will convene at the Maastricht Exhibition & Conference Centre (MECC); they bring with them works of art spanning some seven millennia, many of which have not surfaced on the market for decades. Twenty-five newcomers enter the fray, six of them in the now 98-strong Antiques section, the remainder divided among Ancient Art, Design, Haute Joaillerie, Modern, Paintings, Paper, and Tribal. Once more, courtesy of the fair’s Showcase scheme, five recently established galleries dip their toes in the TEFAF water. Below, and in two further instalments this week, Susan Moore selects her highlights of the fair. Old Lady II (1967), Jann Haworth The Mayor Gallery, €120,000 Fresh from the artist’s collection and a retrospective at Pallant House, Chichester, this much-exhibited work is the centrepiece of a display of women Pop artists. The American-born Haworth pioneered soft sculpture in the 1960s, creating life-sized installations inspired by her watching her father, a Hollywood production designer, at work. Her sewn bodies are a feminist riposte to the prevailing representation of women in Pop art. Old Lady II (1967), Jann Haworth. The Mayor Gallery at TEFAF Maastricht, €120,000 Jesus Preaching on the Sea of Galilee (1631), Frans Francken the Younger Caretto & Occhinegro, in the region of €600,000 For its TEFAF debut in the Showcase section, the Turin-based gallery offers an unpublished monumental painting by the most famous member of this dynasty of Flemish artists.

  • Cornelis Cornelisz, Who Himself Added 'Van Haarlem' to His Name, Was One of the Leading Figures of Dutch Mannerism, Together
    THOS. AGNEW & SONS LTD. 6 ST. JAMES’S PLACE, LONDON, SW1A 1NP Tel: +44 (0)20 7491 9219. www.agnewsgallery.com Cornelis Cornelisz van Haarlem (Haarlem 1562 – 1638) Venus, Cupid and Ceres Oil on canvas 38 x 43 in. (96.7 x 109.2 cm.) Signed with monogram and dated upper right: ‘CH. 1604’ Provenance Private collection, New York Cornelis Cornelisz, who himself added ‘van Haarlem’ to his name, was one of the leading figures of Dutch Mannerism, together with his townsman Hendrick Goltzius and Abraham Bloemaert from Utrecht. He was born in 1562 in a well-to-do Catholic family in Haarlem, where he first studied with Pieter Pietersz. At the age of seventeen he went to France, but at Rouen he had to turn back to avoid an outbreak of the plague and went instead to Antwerp, where he remained for a year with Gilles Coignet. The artist returned to Haarlem in 1581, and two years later, in 1583, he received his first important commission for a group portrait of a Haarlem militia company (now in the Frans Hals Museum, Haarlem). From roughly 1586 to 1591 Cornelis, together with Goltzius and Flemish émigré Karel van Mander formed a sort of “studio brotherhood” which became known as the ‘Haarlem Academy’. In the 1590’s he continued to receive many important commissions from the Municipality and other institutions. Before 1603, he married the daughter of a Haarlem burgomaster. In 1605, he inherited a third of his wealthy father-in-law’s estate; his wife died the following year. From an illicit union with Margriet Pouwelsdr, Cornelis had a daughter Maria in 1611.

    View metadata, citation and similarbroughtCORE papers to you at by core.ac.uk provided by Online Repository of Birkbeck Institutional Theses LOCATING El GRECO IN LATE SIXTEENTH‐CENTURY ROME: ART and LEARNING, RIVALRY and PATRONAGE Ioanna Goniotaki Department of History of Art, School of Arts Birkbeck College, University of London Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, July 2017 -1- Signed declaration I declare that the work presented in the thesis is my own Ioanna Goniotaki -2- ABSTRACT Much has been written about the artistic output of Domenicos Theotocopoulos during his time in Spain, but few scholars have examined his works in Venice and even fewer have looked at the years he spent in Rome. This may be in part attributed to the lack of firm documentary evidence regarding his activities there and to the small corpus of works that survive from his Italian period, many of which are furthermore controversial. The present study focuses on Domenicos’ Roman years and questions the traditional notion that he was a spiritual painter who served the principles of the Counter Reformation. To support such a view I have looked critically at the Counter Reformation, which I consider more as an amalgam of diverse and competitive institutions and less as an austere movement that strangled the freedom of artistic expression. I contend, moreover, that Domenicos’ acquaintance with Cardinal Alessandro Farnese’s librarian, Fulvio Orsini, was seminal for the artist, not only because it brought him into closer contact with Rome’s most refined circles, but principally because it helped Domenicos to assume the persona of ‘pictor doctus’, the learned artist, following the example of another of Fulvio’s friends, Pirro Ligorio.

  • Abstracts of Amsterdam 2010 Conference Workshops
    HNA in Amsterdam - "Crossing Boundaries" Workshop Summaries Rethinking Riegl Jane Carroll [email protected] Alison Stewart [email protected] In 1902, Alois Riegl wrote the Urquelle for all subsequent studies of Northern European group portraits, Das holländische Gruppenporträt. In that work, Riegl expanded art history beyond the contemporary emphasis on formalism and stylistic evolution. Drawing upon his interest in the relationship of objects within a work, Riegl asked his readers to expand that idea to include the viewer of art as an active participant in the understanding of visual works, an element he called “attentiveness.” In short, Riegl's book crossed the accepted boundary of what art history could consider and made viewing art a living exchange between present and past, and between viewer and object. Since its publication, all who have dealt with group portraiture have had to come into dialogue with Riegl’s book. In 1999, the Getty responded to a revived interest in Riegl's theories and republished The Group Portraiture of Holland in a new translation with historical introduction by Wolfgang Kemp. This reissuing increased the accessibility of Riegl’s work and reintroduced him to new generations of art historians. Prompted by that volume, we would like to gather together a group of scholars before the extensive collection of group portraits in the Amsterdams Historisch Museum. The venue of their Great Hall seems a perfect spot in which to reexamine the larger claims of Riegl’s work, and discuss current understandings of Dutch group portraiture. In keeping with the conference theme, we will explore how this genre crosses such boundaries as public vs.
