And, Pierrot, next time we pass a fine periwinkle thou hadst best jump down and pluck a fresh bunch for my Barbo's ears."

That is to say, he spent his time riding from castle to castle, playing on his lute or viol, and singing beautiful songs of his own making. -

Animal Life in Italian Painting

At the Ballantyne Press, Edinburgh / VX-/ e3/^ H67 To ©. H. PREFACE I OWE to Mr. Bernhard Berenson the suggestion which led me to make the notes which are the foundation of this book. In the chapter on the Rudiments of Connoisseurship in the second series of his Study and Criticism of Italian Art, after speaking of the characteristic features in the painting of human beings by which authorship " may be determined, he says : We turn to the animals that the painters, of the Renaissance habitually intro- duced into pictures, the horse, the ox, the ass, and more rarely birds. They need not long detain us, because in questions of detail all that we have found to apply to the human figure can easily be made to apply by the reader to the various animals. I must, however, remind him that animals were rarely petted and therefore rarely observed in the Renaissance. Vasari, for instance, gets into a fury of contempt when describing Sodoma's devotion to pet birds and horses." Having from my schooldays been accustomed to keep animals and birds, to sketch them and to look vii ANIMAL LIFE IN ITALIAN PAINTING for them in painting, I had a general recollection which would not quite square with the statement that they were rarely petted and therefore rarely observed in the Renaissance. -

Stumpf Et L'historiographie Valaisanne
Stumpf et l'historiographie valaisanne Quelques documents Catherine SANTSCHI A la fin de l'année 1547 paraît à Zurich, dans l'imprimerie de Chris tophe Froschauer, la monumentale chronique de Johannes Stumpf en deux volumes in-folio, intitulée Gemeiner loblicher Eydgnoschafft Stetten, Landen und Völckeren chronickwirdiger thaaten beschreybung K Le projet de Stumpf, de composer une grande chronique de la Confédération, est assez ancien, puisque la première version de son ouvrage, terminée en 1535, est une copie augmentée et continuée jusqu'en 1534 de la Chronik von den Helvetiern bis 1509, composée entre 1508 et 1516, probablement déjà en vue de l'impres sion, par Heinrich Brennwald, dont Stumpf avait épousé la fille Regula en 1529. Ce premier état de la chronique de Stumpf, publié partiellement à l'époque moderne, n'a pu être imprimé du vivant de l'auteur, à cause des tensions entre catholiques et réformés qu'il n'aurait pas manqué de provo quer 2.

MARTEN VAN CLEVE I (C. 1527 – Antwerp – Before 1581) a Wedding

(155.3 X 256 cm) PROVENANCE Marchesa de Bermejillo del Rey, by the early 20th century And by descent to the previous owner Private Collection, Spain, until 2015 LITERATURE M. Diaz Padrón, ‘La Obra de Pedro Brueghel el jóven en Espana”, Archivo Espanol de Arte, 1980, p. 309, fig. 18. K. Ertz, Pieter Brueghel der Jüngere, Lingen, 2000, vol. II, p. 702, no. A830. Against a backdrop of rolling farmlands and a giant windmill, a wedding party makes its way along a road from the village on the right, where preparations are being made for the wedding feast, to the church in the upper left-hand corner. As was customary, the bride and groom walk separately, each processed by a man playing a doedelzac (bagpipes). Tall trees single out the groom, who is identified by the wedding crown he wears on top of his bright red cap. He is followed by two older men, probably the fathers of the bridal couple, and the other menfolk of the village. Then comes the plump and solemn-looking bride, wearing a bridal crown and flanked on either side by pages. She is attended by the two mothers and the other female members of the party. Work in the fields has all but stopped: three sacks of flour sit at the foot of the windmill and a cart stands idle. The workers have all turned out to accompany the wedding procession on its way: among the crowd of well-wishers are young men and old, a shepherd, a miller, his face white with flour, and many more besides. -

ISSN: 1949-9833 JHNA 3:1 (Winter 2011) 1 ENVISIONING NETHERLANDISH UNITY: CLAES VISSCHER’S 1612 COPIES OF THE SMALL LANDSCAPE PRINTS Alexandra Onuf Scholars have long recognized the formal significance of Claes Jansz. Visscher’s 1612 copies of the Small Landscape prints for the development of seventeenth-century Dutch landscapes. The prints, which were originally published in Antwerp in the mid-sixteenth century, represent the rural terrain of Brabant with a direct naturalism and topographic specificity that would later become a hallmark of Dutch Golden Age landscape prints and paintings. This article focuses on the content of the series and attempts to understand the Dutch market and appreciation for views of Brabant in the early seventeenth century. Published in the early years of the Twelve Years’ Truce, likely with the vast émigré population of Southern Netherlanders in mind, the prints visually restore Brabant to its pre-Revolt past of peace and prosperity at the same time as they stimulate hope for a reunification of this lost southern province into a new United Nether- lands.10.5092/jhna.2011.3.1.4 1 laes Jansz. -
