It is collective and individual research for perspicacity and the origins of religion, mythology, and personal self-identity. Alchemy is at once a symbolic consciousness of substantial forms and a symbolic utterance of the spiritual and psychological transformations of the spirit, became a connection between wisdom and art. The artist has been given the possibility of integrating his outward and inward creation, his subject matter and his creative activity. Painting and other visual arts are one intent example of communication between physical and psychological world, and other is alchemy. If we look back at the whole art history existence, the appearance of art and artist, just like alchemist, seems a curious phenomenon indeed, an ethereal secret that cannot easily be explained in terms of contemporary lexicon that we may real understand. While the thrust of this study is directed at elucidating the history of alchemy and system of symbols, every chapter includes explicable the form of symbols from the origin of traditions.

The theme was given new life in the mid-sixteenth century through the works of the Flemish painters Pieter Aertsen (1508–75) and Joachim Beuckelaer (ca. 1533–ca. 1574), who incorporated slaughtered and disemboweled animals in their vivid renderings of abundantly supplied market stalls, and also explored the theme as an independent motif.[1] The earliest instances of the motif in the Northern Netherlands come only in the seventeenth century, possibly introduced by immigrants from the south. During the early 1640s, the theme of the slaughtered animal—split, splayed, and Fig 1.

  • Rembrandt Self Portraits
    Rembrandt Self Portraits Born to a family of millers in Leiden, Rembrandt left university at 14 to pursue a career as an artist. The decision turned out to be a good one since after serving his apprenticeship in Amsterdam he was singled out by Constantijn Huygens, the most influential patron in Holland. In 1634 he married Saskia van Uylenburgh. In 1649, following Saskia's death from tuberculosis, Hendrickje Stoffels entered Rembrandt's household and six years later they had a son. Rembrandt's success in his early years was as a portrait painter to the rich denizens of Amsterdam at a time when the city was being transformed from a small nondescript port into the The Night Watch 1642 economic capital of the world. His Rembrandt painted the large painting The Militia Company of Captain Frans Banning Cocq historical and religious paintings also between 1640 and 1642. This picture was called De Nachtwacht by the Dutch and The gave him wide acclaim.

'9^3 THE LIBRARY BRIGHAM YOUWG UIN/IVERSIT^ PROVO, UTAH PREFACE THE present catalogue is a revised edition of the one which appeared in 1912 in my Rembrandt's Etchings, an Essay and a Catalogue, with some Notes on the Drawings. The Introduction is also composed to a large extent of material from the same volume, but revised and re-arranged with the definite object of providing such notes as would be of most use to the student and collector of Rembrandt's etchings (e.g. in the addition of a list of values). The volume of plates, to which a few subjects have been added since 1912, will no doubt be of service for purposes of identifica- tion, and will, I hope, appeal equally to the amateur or artist who merely wishes to be reminded of this incomparable series of subjects.

  • Competition Programme 2020 Teylers Tweede Genootschap Haarlem
    COMPETITION PROGRAMME 2020 TEYLERS TWEEDE GENOOTSCHAP HAARLEM In keeping with the Teylers Stichting’s 200-year-old tradition of promoting academic research, the Directors of this foundation Teylers Stichting, together with the members of the Teylers Tweede Genootschap (Teyler’s Second Society), have decided to hold a competition for the year 2020 on a subject relating to history of science. SUBJECT We invite a study which illustrates and analyses interactions between the sciences and the humanities in the period after 1700. BACKGROUND In his Rede lecture of 1959 the British novelist and physicist Charles Percy Snow discussed – and criticized – the split of the Western intellectual world into two separate cultures, the sciences and the humanities. In his view, representatives of these cultures live in different spheres, a fact that hampered mutual communication. He held such dialogue to be a requirement for coping with many urgent social problems. The dichotomy between the sciences and the humanities has deep roots. In the early modern period, the studia humanitatis already distinguished itself from the study of nature and the related mathematical sciences. This distinction was embedded in institutions such as the Académie Française and the Académie Royale des Sciences. In more recent times, due to advancing specialization in academia, it became ever more difficult for scholars to make meaningful contributions to both domains. None of this takes away the fact that connections between these separate domains have persisted up to the present day. In the wake of Anthony Grafton several historians have pointed out the deep connections between early modern humanism and the investigation of natural phenomena.
