  • Juan Pantoja De La Cruz and the Circulation of Gifts Between the English and Spanish Courts in 1604/5
    Juan Pantoja de la Cruz and the Circulation of Gifts Between the English and Spanish Courts in 1604/5 Gustav Ungerer UNIVERSITÄT BERN The present paper has to be situated in the context of a discipline that has become fashionable in the last two decades: the study of gift-exchange among the elite classes in Europe. In terms of Anglo- Spanish cultural relations, it breaks new ground in dealing with the gift-giving rituals, the formalized international exchange of state portraits, the competitive display and presentation of jewels negotiated between the courts of England and Spain. In particular, it focuses on the cultural policy pursued by the two courts to exploit portraiture and jewelry in order to advance both their political and dynastic aims on the occasion of the peace negotiations and celebrations of the new alliance that was signed in London (1604) and in Valladolid (1605). Thus the English and the Spanish monarchs indulged in a diplomatic interchange of miniatures and full-length royal portraits. In London, Queen Anna harnessed Isaac Oliver’s ability as court painter; in Valladolid, Juan Pantoja de la Cruz, court painter to King Philip III, was commissioned to paint the miniatures and the portraits of the Spanish monarchs as well as of the Infanta Ana de Austria. The article, moreover, takes up the unresolved debate about Pantoja’s contested authorship of The Somerset House Conference, a memorial painting acquired by the National Portrait Gallery in 1882. The political settlement initiated by the Archdukes in Brussels and concluded

  • Images of Elizabeth I by Contrasting These Two Pictures
    Lecture (2 hours with a 15 minute break) • When Elizabeth came to the throne in 1558 she was besieged by problems. The had been terrible harvests in the previous two years and rampant inflation partly caused by Henry VIII’s reducing the silver content of coins. In the previous eleven years the country had veered from extreme Protestantism to extreme Catholicism and in 1558 the country had lost Calais, its last remnant of French territory. In addition to all this Elizabeth was a woman and it was assumed she would soon marry with the danger of the country being run by a foreigner for their own country’s interests. • Yet, by the end of her reign, England was a world power. Pope Sixtus V could not understand it: "She is only a woman, only mistress of half an island, and yet she makes herself feared by Spain, by France, by all". • How did she do it? She was intelligent, shrewd, chose her advisers well and became popular by creating and reinforcing powerful images of herself. This talk explores those images and we start by comparing two. Notes (Wikipedia and other sites & books) • Education. The nobility had a different education from us, Lady Elizabeth for example, was taught grammar, theology, history, rhetoric, logic, philosophy, arithmetic, literature, geometry, music and above all languages. By the age of eleven Elizabeth was able to speak fluently in six languages - French, Greek, Latin, Spanish, Welsh and of course English. • Many of her closest advisors were similarly schooled and Elizabethans loved puzzles, word play, and decoding obscure references.

Introduction The history of the Reformation is still a controversial topic which continues to stir debate in England— even doctrinal controversies between Catholics and Protestants. Given the importance of Protestantism in the construction of English national identity, the role that the Reformation played in the history of the country and its long-lasting impact still lie at the center of public debate. The 16th and 17th centuries— with episodes and characters like the Reformation, Henry VIII, Elizabeth, the Gunpowder Plot, the Civil War, and the Commonwealth—are viewed as founding moments in the history of the country.

  • Painted Wood: History and Conservation
    PART TWO Historical Perspectives 82 Support and Polychromy of Altarpieces from Brussels, Mechlin, and Antwerp Study, Comparison, and Restoration Myriam Serck-Dewaide , comprising painted and sculpted ele- ments (really pieces of liturgical furniture) had already appeared in Cgreat number by the middle of the fourteenth century in different regions. They functioned at this time as tabernacles,1 and cupboards for relics and for individual figures of saints and narrative scenes. Gilded archi- tectural elements, baldachins,2 and rhythmic colonnettes strictly compart- mentalized the space. The painted wings served to close these “cases,” revealing the figures to the faithful only on feast days. Altarpieces were popular throughout Europe in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. The regional workshops—for example, Germanic, Franco-Flemish, Spanish, and Italian—evolved differently, varying the dimensions, space, perspective, lighting, and polychromy of the altarpieces (Skubiszewski 1989). Only altarpieces from the historic Brabant region3 are considered here—in particular, the sculpted parts of these Brabantine altarpieces. In the fifteenth century, Brabantine altarpieces evolved toward a more realis- tic expression and a more accentuated relief. Compositions were grouped in successive arrangement, presenting scenes of small characters, related as in a theatrical setting. Over time, the architecture changed, reducing in size, until eventually there was no more than a frame presenting scenes consecrated to the Virgin, to the lives of the saints, or to cycles of the infancy and Passion of Christ. This evolution progressed very slowly dur- ing the mid–sixteenth century, from late Gothic decoration to Renaissance motifs. From the second half of the fifteenth century, Brabantine altar- pieces became so successful that, in order to satisfy the demand, a division of labor became necessary.
