Diverse peoples acquired economic and political hegemony, they imposed laws, customs and artistic models which merged with pre-existing backgrounds and styles which then expanded throughout Northern European and African countries. Ideas from the East, such as science, religion and artistic models, fil- tered throughout the Mediterranean. Nomadic populations reached Mediterranean shores and so cultures and customs were brought to- gether for several centuries in a relatively small circle. It was on the edges of the Mediterranean where the two fundamental ideas of gar- den design, the formal and the informal, were created and confronted each other. Here, the garden became the idealization of a perfect and immutable world, the mimesis of nature.

  • Production at Doccia Between 1790 -1847 and Royal Commissions for the Lucca Palaces
    PRODUCTION AT DOCCIA BETWEEN 1790 -1847 AND ROYAL COMMISSIONS FOR THE LUCCA PALACES By Atidrcina d’Agliano Production at the Doccia manufactory in the last decade of the 18th century was particularly influ­ enced by the taste for the antique, which affected the development of the Tuscan manufactory in two principal directions. On the one hand there was the influence of the taste for classical ruins introduced through prints by French artists working in Rome in the circle of Piranesi1, and on the other hand the archaeological discoveries made in Naples, and the dynastic links between the Neapolitan and the Florentine courts, which added extensive Neapolitan iconographical sources to the Doccia repertoire2. In 1785, the extremely good relationship between the Marchesi Ginori and the Neapolitan sovereigns inspired Ferdinand IV of Naples to send Lorenzo Ginori the first two volumes of the most valuable publication to be printed in Naples, Le Antichitd di Ercolano esposte. This was a collection of prints repre­ senting the frescoes and statues brought to light during the archaeological excavations at Hercula­ Figure 2.

  • Urns, Planters & Finials
    Urns, Planters & Finials ‘A vase with a rounded body, usually a narrowed mouth and often a foot’. The Urn, alongside Statues and Fountains, is one of the key elements in any classic garden and as such can be traced back to Antiquity. It is here that many of the models we are familiar with today were conceived and with the rebirth in the Italian Renaissance of interest in the classical world, newly discovered (excavated) models laid the foundations for the designs of the preceding centuries. The most famous and much copied examples are the Vases Borghese, discovered around 1569 near the present day Casino Massimo in Rome, and Medici, discovered around the same time at the Villa Medici also in Rome. The Borghese Vase came to its namesake Villa in 1645 and there it stayed for 150 years until purchased by Napoleon and transported back to Paris around 1809, eventually being on permanent display at the Louvre. The Medici Vase, now in the Uffizzi Florence, is often paired with the Borghese Vase. One sees these models being copied in Terracotta by Coade and then Blashfield, in the late 18th and early 19th Centuries. However, they were not only copied in terracotta – stone, marble, lead, bronze, and cast iron versions have been made by many makers, such is the iconic power of these beautiful urns. The Warwick and Townley vases, both discovered by Gavin Hamilton, the former at Hadrian’s Villa in 1770, have also been much copied. Their stories give a sense of how it was in the 18th Century with the great collecting wealth of the English Country House and the Grand Tour that developed the English love of Neo Classical ornamentation in the garden.

  • November the Month
    Susan Horner Diary, extracts for November 1861 1 In November Susan and Joanna begin taking Italian lesssons with Signorina Giarré and Susan has a near disaster with her petticoat. The family become acquainted with Professor Parlatore of the Natural History Museum and the Marchese Gino Capponi. They continue to visit galleries, and make repeat visits to the Esposizione Nazionale. One amusing evening is spent at the Pergola for a performance by the ‘improvisatrice’ Giannina Milli, and another at Palazzo Vecchio for a Lottery. Clough’s sister arrives on 10 November and a few days after this the poet dies. 1 November All Saints Day All the Galleries and shops closed. Professor Parlatore called – We think him very agreeable. He told us the Marchese Sauli has given away all the income he has received as Governor of Tuscany to the Infant Asylums and other Charitable Institutions – His office is now abolished, and a Prefect is to be appointed in his stead – so he will leave Florence and return to Genoa or Turin. Professor Parlatore is a Sicilian and knows the Admiral Ruggiero Settimo, of whom he spoke in the warmest terms. He cautioned us about the sources of information on the state of Italy, as he said, men were much carried away by party spirit, and told us both the Nazione and Gazetta del Popolo were paid by the Government – The Europa is the Republican Paper, the Armonia , the organ of the clerical party. He shook his head about the state of matters – said, the Government had mismanaged the Provinces, and in Sicily though all hate the Bourbons, there is not one man for the present Government – Thousands have lost their means of subsistence, and the Sicilians do not like to be reduced to a Province of the Italian kingdom.
