Copp Catherine E 201405 “THE CARRACCI AND VENICE: ANNIBALE CARRACCI’S STYLISTIC RESPONSE TO VENETIAN ART, AND THE INTERMEDIATE ROLES OF LUDOVICO AND AGOSTINO CARRACCI by Catherine E. Copp A thesis submitted to the Department of Art History In conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada (May, 2014) Copyright © Catherine E. Copp, 2014 Abstract It has always been acknowledged that Venetian art was one of the components from which Annibale Carracci formed his painting style. There is little documentary evidence concerning Annibale’s career and no Venetian sources to inform us of his contact with Venice. Taking his art as the primary source, this study examines the timing and nature of Annibale’s contact with Venetian art and artists. It also investigates the works of his brother Agostino and his cousin Ludovico to discover their roles in directing Annibale towards Venetian art and communicating its qualities to him. The working method used is comparative analysis between Annibale’s art and key paintings he could have seen in Venice and North Italian collections. Sources such as the early biographies and the marginal comments in the Carracci’s copy of Vasari’s Vite supplement the primary artistic evidence. This study compiles and critically engages with analyses from previous scholarship. The thesis investigates the role of prints in the early orientation of the Carracci in Bologna, particularly those reproducing Titian’s work, and how these affected Annibale’s ideas about composition and the representation of figures and landscape. It reconsiders Agostino’s role as an engraver of Venetian paintings in transmitting ideas about Venetian art to Annibale. The Carracci practice of copying other artists is reviewed with a scenario tendered to explain why Annibale copied Correggio and Titian, but not Bassano, Veronese, or Tintoretto. Annibale’s and Agostino’s early adoption of drawing and painting techniques are investigated, as is Ludovico’s later technical experiments. Annibale’s travels in northern Italy as suggested by his annotations in Vasari’s Vite are explored in terms of which paintings he could have seen there and how this experience may be reflected in his art. The most highly ii Venetianizing period of all three Carracci, from about 1587 to its zenith in 1592, is refined. Annibale’s study of Venetian art is shown to have been more involved than suggested by previous scholars. Together with his observation of nature, accomplished draughtsmanship and his study of Correggio, Venetian art informed his mature style before he relocated to Rome. iii Acknowledgements I wish to thank Dr. David McTavish for his supervision of this thesis, for allowing my ideas to shape the research and analysis, leading to a unique final product. Dr. Gian Piero Cammarota and Dr. Elena Rossoni of the Pinacoteca Nazionale graciously assisted me in Bologna. The Staff at the British Museum, Louvre Cabinets des Dessins, and the Vienna Albertina, patiently brought out hundreds of drawings and prints by the Carracci for my study. Librarians at the Galleria Nazionale library in Parma and the Querini Stampalia library in Venice also assisted me. I must single out for special thanks, Dr. Baldassarre Giardina of Bologna for his intervention in obtaining entry to Palazzo Magnani, for his guidance through the San Michele complex to the Chiostro Carracci, and for his generous and continuing friendship. I owe a further debt of gratitude to Patrizia Valenti in Parma, and the staff and fellow students of the Domus Civica women’s residence, my temporary home in Venice. As time is money and vice-versa, I would like to express my thanks to the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada for four glorious years of worry-free academic study. Most especially I want to thank Dr. Alfred Bader and Dr. Isabel Bader for the generous Bader Fellowship Grant that allowed me to travel and study the works of art under consideration in this dissertation, and to realize a dream of seeing so many great works of art in person after more than thirty years of studying them as reproductions in books and slides. iv Table of Contents Abstract

The New York show, “Valentin de Boulogne: Beyond Caravaggio,” concentrated its attention on the French immigrant to Rome who became one of Caravaggio’s most important artistic successors. The National Gallery, for its part, ventured “beyond Caravaggio” with a choice display of Baroque paintings from the National Galleries of London, Dublin, and Edinburgh as well as other collections, many of them taken to be works by Caravaggio when they were first imported from Italy.

The Pastoral Concert - Once considered Giorgione – now considered Titian – though some have considered as by both (Louvre). • Portraits - Royal and Papal commissions late in career • Cabinet Pictures • Religious art • Allegorical / Classical Isabella d’Este “La Bella” • Lead the movement to having large pictures for architectural locations on canvas rather than Fresco – which lasted poorly in Venice’s damp climate • Sought to displace his teacher Bellini as official state painter – declined, but achieved on B’s death. • Married housekeeper by whom he already has two children • Wife dies young in childbirth – a daughter modelled for him for his group pictures • Does not remarry – described as flirting with women but not interested in relationships • Ran a large studio – El Greco was one pupil • Of his most successful pictures many copies were made in the studio Penitent Mary Madelene Two of many versions Christ Carrying the Cross.

  • Rethinking Savoldo's Magdalenes
    Rethinking Savoldo’s Magdalenes: A “Muddle of the Maries”?1 Charlotte Nichols The luminously veiled women in Giovanni Gerolamo Savoldo’s four Magdalene paintings—one of which resides at the Getty Museum—have consistently been identified by scholars as Mary Magdalene near Christ’s tomb on Easter morning. Yet these physically and emotionally self- contained figures are atypical representations of her in the early Cinquecento, when she is most often seen either as an exuberant observer of the Resurrection in scenes of the Noli me tangere or as a worldly penitent in half-length. A reconsideration of the pictures in connection with myriad early Christian, Byzantine, and Italian accounts of the Passion and devotional imagery suggests that Savoldo responded in an inventive way to a millennium-old discussion about the roles of the Virgin Mary and Mary Magdalene as the first witnesses of the risen Christ. The design, color, and positioning of the veil, which dominates the painted surface of the respective Magdalenes, encode layers of meaning explicated by textual and visual comparison; taken together they allow an alternate Marian interpretation of the presumed Magdalene figure’s biblical identity. At the expense of iconic clarity, the painter whom Giorgio Vasari described as “capriccioso e sofistico” appears to have created a multivalent image precisely in order to communicate the conflicting accounts in sacred and hagiographic texts, as well as the intellectual appeal of deliberately ambiguous, at times aporetic subject matter to northern Italian patrons in the sixteenth century.2 The Magdalenes: description, provenance, and subject The format of Savoldo’s Magdalenes is arresting, dominated by a silken waterfall of fabric that communicates both protective enclosure and luxuriant tactility (Figs.
