Andrea Del Castagno 1 Andrea Del Castagno Andrea del Castagno 1 Andrea del Castagno "Castagna" redirects here. For other meanings, see Castagna (disambiguation). Andrea del Castagno (or Andrea di Bartolo di Bargilla) (c. 1421–1457) was an Italian painter from Florence, influenced chiefly by Tommaso Masaccio and Giotto di Bondone. His works include frescoes in Sant'Apollonia in Florence and the painted equestrian monument of Niccolò da Tolentino (1456) in the Cathedral in Florence.[1] He in turn influenced the Ferrarese school of Cosmè Tura, Francesco del Cossa and Ercole de' Roberti. Life Early years Andrea del Castagno was born at Castagno, a village near Monte Falterona, not far from Florence. During the war between Florence and Milan, he lived in Corella, returning to his home after its end. In 1440 he moved to Florence under the protection of Bernadetto de' Medici. Here he painted the portraits of the citizens hanged after the Battle of Anghiari on the facade of the Palazzo del Podestà, gaining the nickname of Andrea degli Impiccati. Fresco of Niccolò da Tolentino (1456). Little is known about his formation, though it has been hypothised that he apprenticed under Fra Filippo Lippi and Paolo Uccello. In 1440-1441 he executed the fresco of Crucifixion and Saints in the Ospedale di Santa Maria Nuova, whose perspective-oriented construction and figures shows the influence of Masaccio. In 1442 he was in Venice where he executed frescoes in the San Tarasio Chapel of the church of San Zaccaria. Later he also worked in St. Mark's Basilica, leaving a fresco of Death of the Virgin (1442–1443). Back in Florence, he designed a stained window with Deposition for the local Cathedral. On May 30, 1445 he became member of the Guild of the Medicians. From the same year is the fresco of Madonna with Child and Santi in the Contini Bonacossi Collection (Uffizi). Andrea del Castagno 2 The Last Supper In 1447 he worked in the refectory of Sant'Apollonia in Florence, painting, in the lower part, Last Supper fresco,[2] accompanied by other scenes portraying the Deposition, Resurrection,[3] and Crucifixion, which are now damaged. He also painted a lunette in the cloister, depicting a Pietà. The Last Supper displays del The Last Supper of Sant'Apollonia. Castagno's talents at his best. The detail and naturalism of this fresco portray the ways in which del Castagno departed from earlier artistic styles. It is likely that Leonardo da Vinci was already familiar with this work before he painted his his own Last Supper in a more dramatic form to contrast with the stillness of these works, so that more emotion would be displayed.[4] Late activity In 1449-1450 he painted the Assumption with Saints Julian and Miniato for the church of San Miniato fra le Torri (now in Berlin). In the same years he collaborated with Filippo Carducci to a series of Illustrious People for the Villa Carducci at Legnaia. These include Pippo Spano, Farinata degli Uberti, Niccolò Acciaioli, Dante, Petrarca, Boccaccio, the Cumaean Sibyl, Esther and Tomiri. Also from around 1450 is the Crucifixion in London, as well as the David with Goliath's Head and the Portrait of a Man in Washington. Between January 1451 and September 1453 he completed the frescoes with Scenes of Life of the Virgin left unfinished by Domenico Veneziano in the Florentine church of Sant'Egidio (now lost). In October Filippo Carducci commissioned him frescoes for his villa at Soffiano, of which today an Eve and a ruined Madonna with Child survive. In 1455 Andrea del Castagno worked in the Basilica della Santissima Annunziata (frescoes with Trinity with Saints Jerome, Paula and Eustochium and St. Julian and the Redeemer, the former showing a stressed realism). Also to those years is attributed a Crucifixion for St. Apollonia. In 1456 he executed in the Cathedral the famous fresco of the Equestrian Statue of Niccolò da Tolentino, paralleling the similar painting by Paolo Uccello portraying John Hawkwood. Giorgio Vasari, an artist and biographer of the Italian Renaissance, alleged that Castagno murdered Domenico Veneziano,[5] although this seems rather unlikely - given that Veneziano died in 1461, four years after Castagno died of the plague.

  • “Sacrum Convivium”. Formas E Conteúdos Da Ceia Do Rei De Portugal Na Idade Moderna a Partir Das Figurações Icónicas
    De Arte, 4, 2005, pp. 89-120 “Sacrum convivium”. Formas e conteúdos da ceia do rei de Portugal na Idade Moderna a partir das figurações icónicas Marco Daniel Duarte RESUMO. Os reis da Idade Moderna portuguesa, como os monarcas da restante Europa, tinham plena consciência da importância da alimentação e do simbolismo que, desde os tempos mais antigos da humanidade, a alimentação condensava através dos seus ritos. Faziam, assim, do acto de comer um cerimonial através do qual demonstravam o seu poder: ante os maiores do seu povo, o rei mostrava-se alimentador do seu reino e, também, alimentado pelo seu reino. Os vários ritos estavam de tal sorte associados ao ritual eucarístico que, inclusivamente, se poderá falar de um verdadeiro “sacrum convivium”. De entre as várias fontes que concorrem para esta percepção, têm um lugar primordial as fontes iconográficas (ceias, representação de festas, naturezas-mortas…), pois condensam em si, mais do que uma reprodução à maneira de reportagem, os valores que, na Idade Moderna, gravitavam em torno da sacralidade dos alimentos. Palabras‐chave: ceia, iconografia da alimentação, banquete, ritual, liturgia régia, eucaristia, natureza-morta, comida pública do rei, Última Ceia. ABSTRACT. The kings of the Portuguese Modern Age, such as the monarchs of the rest of Europe, had plain conscience of the importance of food and of the symbolism that, since the most ancient times of humanity, food condensed through its rites. They did, thus, from the act of eating a ceremonial through which they would show their power: in the face of the greatest of his people, the king showed himself as the feeder of his realm and, also, as the one who was fed by his kingdom.

  • The Last Supper Seen Six Ways by Louis Inturrisi the New York Times, March 23, 1997
    1 Andrea del Castagno’s Last Supper, in a former convent refectory that is now a museum. The Last Supper Seen Six Ways By Louis Inturrisi The New York Times, March 23, 1997 When I was 9 years old, I painted the Last Supper. I did it on the dining room table at our home in Connecticut on Saturday afternoon while my mother ironed clothes and hummed along with the Texaco. Metropolitan Operative radio broadcast. It took me three months to paint the Last Supper, but when I finished and hung it on my mother's bedroom wall, she assured me .it looked just like Leonardo da Vinci's painting. It was supposed to. You can't go very wrong with a paint-by-numbers picture, and even though I didn't always stay within the lines and sometimes got the colors wrong, the experience left me with a profound respect for Leonardo's achievement and a lingering attachment to the genre. So last year, when the Florence Tourist Bureau published a list of frescoes of the Last Supper that are open to the public, I was immediately on their track. I had seen several of them, but never in sequence. During the Middle Ages the ultima cena—the final supper Christ shared with His disciples before His arrest and crucifixion—was part of any fresco cycle that told His life story. But in the 15th century the Last Supper began to appear independently, especially in the refectories, or dining halls, of the convents and monasteries of the religious orders founded during the Middle Ages.

  • 2021 Sacred Hear Nesletter
    Benedictine Monastery, 5 Mackerston Place, Largs KA30 8BY, SCOTLAND, Tel. 01475 687 320 [email protected] Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart June 2021 Dear Friends, When we were dead through sin, God brought us to life again in Christ, -because He loved us with so great a love. That He might reveal for all ages to come the immeasurable riches of his grace. - because He loved us with so great a love. (Responsory for the Office of Readings, The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus: Ephesians 2:5,4,7) The Solemnity of the Sacred Heart is a time of remembrance and celebration of the everlasting love of God in the Sacred Heart. The whole of the Church’s celebration from Easter to this feast has been the victory of the Sacred Heart. We celebrated the Paschal mystery of God’s redemptive love in Christ Jesus, when Love Incarnate gave Himself for us unto death, reconciling us to His Father and making us co-heirs with him; when His bride the Church, was born from His pierced Heart from which the Sacramental life of the Church flows; when by His resurrection, love triumphed over death; then He ascended into heaven to prepare a place for us to be with Him forever. He then sent us His Spirit of Love to be our teacher, guide and sanctifier, to make potent and fruitful in our souls His redemptive sacrifice; pouring upon us the streams of living water from His pierced Heart so that our hearts too will flow with that water. On the Octave of Easter the Sacred Heart enveloped His Church in the rays of His merciful Heart inviting us to meditate on His inexhaustible mercy, His greatest attribute.

  • Scrovegni Chapel 1 Scrovegni Chapel
    Scrovegni Chapel 1 Scrovegni Chapel The Scrovegni Chapel, or Cappella degli Scrovegni, also known as the Arena Chapel, is a church in Padua, Veneto, Italy. It contains a fresco cycle by Giotto, completed about 1305, that is one of the most important masterpieces of Western art. The church was dedicated to Santa Maria della Carità at the Feast of the Annunciation, 1305. Giotto's fresco cycle focuses on the life of the Virgin Mary and celebrates her role in human salvation. The chapel is also known as the Arena Chapel because it was built on land purchased by Enrico Scrovegni that abutted the site of a Roman arena. This space is where an open-air procession and sacred representation of the Annunciation to the Virgin had been played out for a generation before the chapel was built. A motet by Marchetto da Padova appears to have been composed for the dedication on March 25, 1305.[1] The chapel was commissioned by Enrico Scrovegni, whose family fortune was made through the practice of usury, which at this time meant charging interest when loaning money, a sin so grave that it resulted in exclusion from the Christian sacraments.[2] Built on family estate, it is often suggested that Enrico built the chapel in penitence for his father's sins and for Capella degli Scrovegni absolution for his own. Enrico's father Reginaldo degli Scrovegni is the usurer encountered by Dante in the Seventh Circle of Hell. A recent study suggests that Enrico himself was involved in usurious practices and that the chapel was intended as restitution for his own sins.[3] Enrico's tomb is in the apse, and he is also portrayed in the Last Judgment presenting a model of the chapel to the Virgin.
