Narodna galerija, Moderna galerija in Restavratorski center ZVKDS so februarja 2005 skupaj organizirali medna- rodni simpozij Znanost za umetnost – Konservatorstvo in restavratorstvo danes. Simpozij je sovpadel z razstavo del Hansa Georga Geigerja (Mojstra HGG), umetnika iz sedemnajstega stoletja, v Narodni galeriji v Ljubljani. Nekatere slike so bile zanemarjene in poškodovane, posebno žuželke in vlaga so povzročile strukturno nestabilnost in luščenje barve. Ko so slike prispele v Narodno galerijo, jih je bilo treba najprej konservatorsko obdelati in restavrirati, preden so jih lahko JO KIRBY razstavili v sijoči podobi, v kakršni jih občinstvo lahko občuduje vse odtlej. Pred posegi je bilo treba dela najprej nadvse temeljito pregledati in proučiti. Izkušen restavrator ob pogledu na umetnino vidi veliko več kot povprečen obiskovalec galerije, še več pa lahko ugotovi, če so mu na voljo določeni pripomočki. Stanje in strukturo slik Mojstra HGG so proučili z rentgensko radiografijo, ki je med drugim pokazala spremembe, do katerih je morda prišlo med postopkom slikanja. Za dokumentiranje videza del pred in med posegi ter po njih je bila bistvena fotografija, preiskave z ultravijolično svetlobo pa so pokazale, kako obsežna so bila predhodna restavriranja. Preiskava prečnega prereza zelo majhnega vzorca barve je pokazala strukturo barvne plasti, to je, kako je umetnik izdelal sliko in katere materiale je uporabil. Vsi ti postopki so dobro znani. Obstajajo pa tudi drugi načini bolj poglobljenega proučevanja struktur, ki bi lahko bili – in tudi že so – koristni za konservatorje in restavratorje, čeprav so težje razumljivi. Kadar so podatki predstavljeni kot spekter, kromatogram ali kvantitativna ocena elementov v barvi z določenega območja, jih lahko nemudoma razbere le tisti, ki je analizo s tovrstno opremo opravil. Kako naj torej restavrator 12 ] 13 Predgovor Foreword The international symposium Science In Art – Conservation and Restoration Today, organised jointly by the Narodna galerija/ National Gallery of Slovenia, the Moderna galerija/ Museum of Modern Art, and the Restavratorski center RS/ Restoration Centre of the Republic of Slovenia in February 2005, coincided with an exhibition of works by the seventeenth-century artist, Hans Georg Geiger (the Master HGG), held in the National Gallery of Slovenia, Ljubljana. Some of the paintings had sufered from neglect; insect damage and damp had taken their toll, causing structural instability and flaking paint. When they arrived in the National Gallery of Slovenia, they required conservation treatment and restoration before they could be put on display in the splendid condition in which the public have been able to admire them, both during the exhibition and subsequently. Before this could be done, the works had to be examined and studied in depth. The experienced restorer sees a great deal more than the average gallery visitor when looking at a work of art, but even more can be observed when the restorer is assisted by certain aids. Thus, the condition and structure of the Master HGG’s paintings were studied by X-radiography; this reveals, for example, changes that may have been made during the painting process. Photography was essential for documenting the appearance of the work before, during and after its treatment; examination by ultraviolet illumination revealed the extent of previous restorations.

  • This Raphael Is for Real
    This Raphael is for real In the pinks: The National's Madonna. Photo: National Gallery, London For the next three months, Raphael's Madonna of the Pinks, acquired in March by the National Gallery for £22m, can be seen in our new exhibition Raphael: From Urbino to Rome, alongside 37 other paintings by the young artist. This provides an unequalled opportunity to examine the claims by Professor James Beck, reported in yesterday's Times, that this painting is not by Raphael. When a painting is as expensive as Madonna of the Pinks, it is to be expected that the gallery's decision to acquire it should be properly scrutinised. But the questions asked of the picture need to be the right ones. One person's opinion, however vociferously expressed, isn't sufficient reason to doubt a picture's authenticity. The story of the rediscovery of the painting is well known. Dr Nicholas Penny, then working at the National Gallery and the author of a major monograph on Raphael, noticed the picture on a visit to Alnwick in 1991. It had long been regarded as the best surviving copy of a lost composition by Raphael; no art historian believed it was by Raphael himself. But Penny thought it worth borrowing for examination in the gallery's scientific department. By the early 1990s, the National Gallery had recognised that a connoisseur's judgment needs to be backed up by science. Only by examining the way Raphael's painting was made could we abandon the idea that the picture was a copy. Penny found that a remarkable free drawing, very like many of Raphael's works on paper, lay under the paint.

Golden Triangles: In this exercise, you will be showing that all of the triangles shown in the triangle below have the ratio long side:short side in the Golden Ratio. Since any triangles with the same angles will be similar, and hence have sides in the same proportions, this will ultimately show that any 72◦-72◦-36◦ triangle or any 36◦-36◦-108◦ triangle will be Golden, although you will of course first have to discover those angles. (Also, any isosceles triangle whose sides have this ratio will be similar to one of these twoD types.) 36 x C 72 A B 1 (a) Show that triangle ABD is similar to triangle BCA. Hints: • Since you're given that AB = AC, you know that triangle BCA is an isosceles triangle. • Remember that the base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal, and if the base angles of a triangle are equal, it's an isosceles triangle. • Although triangle ABD looks like an isosceles triangle, you are not given that it is. • Also remember that the sum of the angles in a triangle are 180◦. Sklensky Spring, 2009 Math & Art Problem Set 5-Individual Due 2/25/09 (b) Show that triangle ADC is also an isosceles triangle. (c) Use the result of part (b) to write the length BC in terms of x. (d) Use the similarity you showedp in (a), and your result to part (c), 1 + 5 to show that x = ' = . 2 (e) Show that in the isosceles triangle ADC, the ratio of the longer side to the shorter side is again '.

Ash Wednesday is the time that traditionally people come into church and have the sign of the cross marked in ash on their foreheads. It begins a period of prayer, fasting and charitable acts, and a time when Christians reflect on their own journey of faith. It was a great privilege for me to be involved in the ‘Ashing’ at one of the Team’s schools, Old Bexley Church of England Primary School, with the Team Vicar Reverend Clive Wood and the Team Curate, Reverend Gary Best.

    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-13150-7 — Raphael and the Redefinition of Art in Renaissance Italy Robert Williams Frontmatter More Information i RAPHAEL AND THE REDEFINITION OF ART IN RENAISSANCE ITALY S Raphael was one of the most important artists of the Italian Renaissance and one of the most important and inl uential in the entire history of art. His prac- tice of “synthetic” or “critical” imitation became a model of creative method; his engagement with the principle of decorum revealed its deeper expressive and philosophical signii cance, and the operation of his workshop helped to redei ne the nature of the work that artists do. Robert Williams draws upon the history of literature, philosophy, and religion, as well as upon economic history, to support his detailed and illuminating accounts of Raphael’s major works. His analyses serve as the foundation for a set of hypotheses about the aims and aspirations of Italian Renaissance art in general and the nature of art- historical inquiry. Robert Williams is Professor of the History of Art at the University of California, Santa Barbara. He received his Ph.D. at Princeton, under the supervision of John Shearman, and is the author of Art, Theory, and Culture in Sixteenth- Century Italy: From Techne to Metatechne (Cambridge, 1997) and Art Theory: An Historical Introduction, which has been translated into Chinese and Korean. Among his recent publications is Michael Baxandall, Vision, and the Work of Words , co- edited with Peter Mack of the University of Warwick. © in this web service

  • The Madonna of the Pinks
    Eindexamen Engels vwo 2007-II havovwo.nl Tekst 7 The Madonna of the Pinks Andreas Whittam Smith I am not particularly nationalistic so far as works of art are concerned. If, as expected, Tessa Jowell, the Secretary of State for Culture, announces later this week that the Government is to defer the export of the lovely Raphael, Madonna of the Pinks, so that funds can be assembled to match the bid by the Getty Museum in Los Angeles, I won’t myself be rattling the collecting tin.
