The Vatican Museum contain an immense wealth of art. The museums offer a great variety of collections from ancient Greek to Etruscan art and of course Renaissance art. Vatican Museum is located within the Vatican City, in Rome. 3 HISTORY The Sistine Chapel stands on the foundation of an older chapel called the Capella Magna. In 1477, Pope Sixtus IV started a rebuilding of the chapel. The chapel’s exterior is simple and unassuming. In 1503, pope Julius II, decided to change some of the Sistine Chapel's decorations. He commissioned the artist Michelangelo to do it. Pope Clement VII commissioned Michelangelo to paint the giant fresco "The Last Judgment« in 1536. 4 MICHELANGELO BUONARROTI Michelangelo Buonarroti was born in the small village of Caprese in 1475 and died in Rome in 1564. In his life he painted and scolished a lot of important paintings and sculptures. The most important are: • The Pieta • David • The Creation of Adam • The Last Jugdement 5 SANDRO BOTTICELLI Sandro Botticelli was born around 1445 in Florence and died in Florence in 1510. His most important works are: • Adoration of Magi • Primavera • The Birth of Venus. 6 DOMENICO GHIRLANDAIO Domenico Ghirlandaio was born in Florence in 1449 and died in Florence in 1494. His most important works are: • The Birth of the Virgin • The Visitation 7 THE NORTH WALL 8 THE VOCATION OF THE FIRST APOSTLES The Vocation of the First Apostles is a fresco by Domenico Ghirlandaio made in 1481-1482. The Vocation scene is divided between foreground and background The most original element of the work is the multitude of spectators 9 THE DELIVERY OF KEYS The Delivery of the Keys is a fresco by Pietro Perugino made in 1481-1482. The theme of the decoration was the parallelism between the Stories of Moses and those of Christ. 10 TRIALS OF CHRIST Trials of Christ is a fresco by Sandro Botticelli made between 1480 and 1482. The scene of the Trials of Christ depicts the three Temptations of Jesus . 11 12 The south wall is divided into 4 horizontal bands: • the first includes the lunettes • the second represents a series of Popes • the third band represents the stories of Moses Lunettes • the fourth band sees paintings of drapes Series of Popes Stories of Moses Drapes 13 JOURNEY OF MOSES IN EGYPT There are 6 paintings depicting The Stories of Moses. Today the Old Testament cycle starts from the Journey of Moses in Egypt painted by Perugino. On the left background is a group of shepherds. 14 YOUTH OF MOSES Botticelli painted the second panel that describes the Youth of Moses in 1481. The fresco shows several episodes of Moses' youth taken from Exodus: • the killing of the Egyptian • Moses fights the shepherds • Moses receives from God the task to return • Moses drives the Jews to the Promised Land 15 Simonetta Vespucci 16 PUNISHMENT OF THE SONS OF KORAH Botticelli also painted the fifth panel in 1482. This illustrates a rather rare episode such as the Punishment of Korah, Dathan and Abiram. 17 SOURCES: • www.wikipedia.it • www.museivaticani.va • www.englishtours.it • www.biography.com • www.livesience.com • www.theartstory.org • www.britannica.com • www.history.com 18 QUESTIONS?

How has commissioning changed for the artist and for the entity requesting the art piece? What can be predicted as the future of the commissioning world? Our May issue explores the many and different ramifications of art commission in the past and in the present. Historical facts and recent scandals can make a quirky encapsulation of what is like to be commissioned to do art; to be commissioned an art piece for an individual, business, or government can sometimes be compared to making an agreement with the devil. “Commissioned artwork can be anything: a portrait, a wedding gift, artwork for a hotel, etc. Unfortunately, there are no universal rules for art commissions. Consequently, many clients take advantage of artists,” says Clara Lieu, an art critic for the Division of Experimental and Foundation studies and a professor at the Rhode Island School of Design. This issues aims to track down the history of ancient civilizations and the Renaissance in its relation to commissioned work, and its present manifestations in within political quarrels of 01 respectable art institutions.

    THE ESOTERICISM IN SANDRO BOTTICELLI’S LA PRIMAVERA © Esperanza Parra López. Registered in the Spanish Register of Intellectual Property. Register Number: 08/2011/549. ABSTRACT: This article proposes an iconographic and especially iconological interpretation about the picture La Primavera (Allegory of Spring) by Sandro Botticelli. This fresh interpretation has a strong esoteric component, characteristic of the period when it was created, which has remained largely unnoticed. But the author of this research maintains that in order to fully understand this picture, it is needed to penetrate the Italian Renaissance Mentality. KEYWORDS: Marsilio Ficino – Lorenzo of Pierfrancesco of Medici – Lorenzo The Magnificent – Simonetta Vespucci – Semiramide Appiani. RESUMEN: Se propone aquí, en el presente artículo, una interpretación iconográfica y sobre todo iconológica totalmente nueva y definitiva sobre el cuadro La Primavera de Sandro Botticelli. Esta novedosa interpretación tiene un fuerte componente esotérico, propio de la época en la cual se realizó esta obra de arte, que, muchas veces, ha pasado totalmente desapercibido. Pero la autora de esta investigación, insiste, en que hay que penetrar en la mentalidad del Renacimiento Italiano y sus escritos para comprender la totalidad de dicho cuadro.

  • Neoplatonism and the Visual Arts at the Time of Marsiuo Ficino
    NEOPLATONISM AND THE VISUAL ARTS AT THE TIME OF MARSIUO FICINO Francis Ames-Lewis Over the past fifty years or so, debate on the issue of the significance of Florentine Neoplatonic philosophy, and of Ficino's philosophical ideas in particular, for the visual arts in his time has primarily revolved around paintings produced for members of the Medici family, and most particularly two of Botticelli's great panel-paintings in the Uffizi, the Pallas and the Centaur and the Primavera. This debate reached its height around 1960 when Edgar Wind and Erwin Panofsky proposed variations on the classic Neoplatonic reading, Ernst Gom­ brich's celebrated article of 1945.1 Gombrich understood the Primavera in the light of a letter from Marsilio Ficino to Lorenzo di Pierfrancesco de' Medici, second cousin to Lorenzo the Magnificent, in which Venus is equated with the concept of humanitas. However, this does not really help to elucidate the meaning of the Venus who stands at the centre of the Primavera. Moreover, Gombrich's hypothesis was further compromised by his unsatisfactory attempt to identify the figures and their interrelationships in the light of the Golden Ass of Apuleius, which in its somewhat coarse character does not well match the lyrical, pastoral quality of Botticelli's pictorial treatment. In 1958 Edgar Wind suggested, citing Ficino at frequent inter­ vals, that the two groups on either side of Venus may represent two consecutive phases of one consistent Platonic theory of love. 2 Since Vasari had seen the Primavera and the Birth of Venus hanging in the villa of Castello, which then belonged to the heirs of Lorenzo di Pierfrancesco de' Medici, Erwin Panofsky proposed in 1960 that they were pendants (despite the fact that one is on panel and the other on canvas), both painted for Lorenzo di Pierfrancesco, the first 1 E.

My thesis offers the first full exploration of the literature and art associated with the Genoese noblewoman Simonetta Cattaneo Vespucci (1453-1476). Simonetta has gone down in legend as a model of Sandro Botticelli, and most scholarly discussions of her significance are principally concerned with either proving or disproving this theory. My point of departure, rather, is the series of vernacular poems that were written about Simonetta just before and shortly after her early death. I use them to tell a new story, that of the transformation of the historical monna Simonetta into a cultural icon, a literary and visual construct who served the political, aesthetic and pecuniary agendas of her poets and artists.

Events threaten to keep his unlikely muse out of reach, and so begins a tale of one of the art world’s most beloved paintings, La Primavera, as Sandro, a confirmed bachelor, and Floriana, a headstrong artist in her own right, enter into a turbulent relationship.

Once he meets Floriana, a Jewish weaver held prisoner at a near- by convent under the control of Sandro’s estranged older sister, Oslavia, everything changes. Although the Medici hold the purse strings, Floriana— the inspiration behind his painting La Primavera—holds his heart strings.

A tanner’s son, Sandro lives in a world of nobles, philosophers, and intellectuals, yet never belongs to it. Whether to love and leave his work behind, or love his work and leave Floriana behind—Botticelli’s divided loyalties torment him. How long can he refuse to choose?

  • Venus Anadyomene: the Mythological Symbolism from Antiquity to the 19Th Century
    VENUS ANADYOMENE: THE MYTHOLOGICAL SYMBOLISM FROM ANTIQUITY TO THE 19TH CENTURY By Jenna Marie Newberry A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS IN ART HISTORY University of Wisconsin – Superior December 2011 2 3 Title: Venus Anadyomene: The Mythological Symbolism from Antiquity to the 19th Century Author: Newberry, Jenna Marie Advisors: Famule, Olawole and Morgan, William Abstract: This thesis includes reading the chosen artworks as a visual interpretation of the written mythological birth of Venus by the sea. Reading the selected painting as visual novels, the pictorial symbolism helps prove or disprove the true theme of the Venus. The writer bases her theory on the inclusion of mythological symbols that represent the Venus Anadyomene; scallop shell, dolphins, Aros, dove, sparrow, girdle, mirror, myrtle, and roses. The comparison of various artists‟ interpretations of this theme and the symbols they use to recognize the Venus as such is a substantial part of the research. The writer concludes in this thesis that the chosen art pieces are or are not a Venus Anadyomene, and in fact just a female nude entitled and themed fallaciously for an allure or ambiance. Through extensive research in the mythological symbolism of the Goddess of Love, the above-mentioned symbols used by various artists across several eras prove the Venus a true character of mythological history.

Renaissance Art in Europe. The Birth of Venus different analyzes found in ancient and modern texts, the exact reading of the imagery of the cannot be provided. Although the two are not a pair, The Birth of Venus painting is inevitably discussed with Botticelli's other very large mythological painting, the Primaveraalso in the Uffizi. After centuries of oblivionthe painting was rediscovered only in the 19th century. More recently, questions have arisen about Neoplatonism as the dominant intellectual system of late 15th-century Florence, [31] and scholars have indicated that there might be other ways to interpret Botticelli's mythological paintings. Horne believed that the painting was commissioned soon after the purchase in of the Villa di Castelloa country house outside Florence, by Lorenzo and Giovanni, to decorate their new house, which they were The Birth of Venus. The painting is on two pieces of canvas, sewn together before starting, with a gesso ground tinted blue. Look for example, the way that the artist has highlighted her golden hair with actual lines of gold. This life-sized work depicts a similar figure and pose, partially clad in a light blouse, and contrasted against a plain dark background. He was overshadowed by revered characters such as Michelangelo and Leonardo. Pliny went on to note that Apelles' painting The Birth of Venus Pankaspe as Venus was later "dedicated by Augustus in the shrine of his father Caesar.

  • The Birth of Venus
    The birth of Venus Venus (literally: “love” or “sexual desire”) was a major Roman goddess associated with love, beauty, and fertility and commonly identified with the Greek goddess Aphrodite. Technically, she was the wife of Vulcan (the god of fire) but her son Eros was apparently the son of the god Mars (the god of war). Legend says that she was created from the foam of the waves, fully grown, emerging from a giant seashell, near the island of Cyprus in the mediterranean. Julius Caesar adopted her as his protectress and Augustus Caesar gave her an upgrade and officially designated Venus as the ancestor of the Roman people, hence a major goddess of Rome. Since antiquity, Venus/Aphrodite was a subject of art inspiration. She was usually created as a magnificent statue of a strikingly beautiful, naked or half-naked woman. From the 15th century to the present she was commonly painted in legendary situations from her life or as an imaginative ceiling decoration in European palaces. Almost every well known or lesser known artist has his/her “Venus”. The most famous works of Venus are the ancient Greek statue “Venus de Milo” that was discovered on the island of Milo (in the Muse de Louvre, Paris) and the painting “The birth of Venus” by Italian painter Sandro Botticelli (c. 1485–1586) in the Offici Gallery in Florence, Italy. What you see is a contemporary homage to the famous painting of Botticelli “The birth of Venus” as a young woman surfing a huge wave. Hidden clues: The surfing board is a large seashell, as in the legend.
