We are, as ever, ap- preciative of the time and effort of our board, and thank Martha Hollander, Yao-Fen You, and Lloyd DeWitt, who are rotating off the board, for their contribution over the past four years, and Dawn Odell, our treasurer, who will be taking a sabbatical. We look forward to seeing you at the College Art Associa- tion Annual Conference in Washington February 3-6, where HNA will sponsor a session and host a reception, and at the Renaissance Society of America Conference in Boston, March 31-April 2, where HNA and the Italian Art Society are co-spon- soring two sessions and co-hosting a reception.

  • Kunstkammer Wien a Selection of Important
    KUNSTKAMMER WIEN A SELECTION OF IMPORTANT OBJECTS „Krumau Madonna“ Prague (?), c. 1400 Sandstone, cloak originally white and blue, hair and edge of clothes gilt Provenance: acquired in 1913 for the Imperial Collections Kunsthistorisches Museum, Kunstkammer, Inv-no. KK 10156 This sculpture was discovered around 1900 in Krumau in southern Bohemia. It is a perfect example of the „beautiful Madonnas“ so popular in the art around 1400. The Virgin with Child is shown as both the Queen of Heaven and a loving mother. Characteristics of courtly refinement, such as the rich and heavy drapery, idealised features and her gilt hair, are combined with verisimilitude, e.g. the body of the baby. This Gothic masterpiece is clearly informed by the art at the court in Prague. Salt Cellar (Saliera) Benvenuto Cellini (Florence 1500 – 1571 Florence) Paris, made between 1540 and 1543 Gold, partly enamelled; ebony, ivory, Provenience: from the Kunstkammer of Archduke Ferdinand II of Tirol at Ambras; presented to the Archduke by King Charles IX of France in 1570 Kunsthistorisches Museum, Kunstkammer, Inv-no. KK 881 The only extant goldsmith work by the celebrated Renaissance artist, Benvenuto Cellini, perfectly reflects the refined taste of contemporary courtly society. We know it served as a container for the expensive spices, salt and pepper, but the complex pictorial programme culminates in an allegory of the cosmos (complete with the god of the ocean and the goddess of the earth, animals, the four winds and the four times of the day) dominated by the arms and emblems of the patron who commissioned it, Francois I of France (ruled 1515-1547).

[email protected] Abstract This article explores how painters responded to the crisis on the Antwerp art market in the 1580s. Although scholarship has stressed the profound crisis and subsequent emigration wave, prosopographical analysis shows that only a mino- rity of painters left the city. Demand for Counter-Reformation artworks allowed many to pursue their career in Antwerp, while others managed to survive the crisis by relying on cheap apprentices and the export of mass-produced paintings. Emigrant painters, on the other hand, minimised the risk of migration by settling in destinations that already had close artistic ties to Antwerp, such as Middelburg. Prosopographical analysis thus allows for a more nuanced understanding of artistic careers in the Low Countries. Keywords: Antwerp painters, career strategies, art market, guild of St.

    History of Art MA Dissertation, 2017 Ruptured Wisdom: The Unification of Violence and Knowledge in Cornelis van Haarlem’s Two Followers of Cadmus Devoured by a Dragon Cornelis van Haarlem, Two Followers of Cadmus Devoured by a Dragon, 1588 History of Art MA – University College London HART G099 Dissertation September 2017 Supervisor: Allison Stielau Word Count: 13,999 Candidate Number: QBNB8 1 History of Art MA Dissertation, 2017 Ruptured Wisdom: The Unification of Violence and Knowledge in Cornelis van Haarlem’s Two Followers of Cadmus Devoured by a Dragon Striding into the wood, he encountered a welter of corpses, above them the huge-backed monster gloating in grisly triumph, tongue bedabbled with blood as he lapped at their pitiful wounds. -Ovid, Metamorphoses, III: 55-57 Introduction The visual impact of the painting Two Followers of Cadmus Devoured by a Dragon (figs.1&2), is simultaneously disturbing and alluring. Languidly biting into a face, the dragon stares out of the canvas fixing the viewer in its gaze, as its unfortunate victim fails to push it away, hand resting on its neck, raised arm slackened into a gentle curve, the parody of an embrace as his fight seeps away with his life. A second victim lies on top of the first, this time fixed in place by claws dug deeply into the thigh and torso causing the skin to corrugate, subcutaneous tissue exposed as blood begins to trickle down pale flesh. Situated at right angles to each other, there is no opportunity for these bodies to be fused into a single cohesive entity despite one ending where the other begins.

  • Adolph Goldschmidt Im Jahre 1912 – Lehrer, Organisator, Netzwerker
    Claudia Rückert Adolph Goldschmidt im Jahre 1912 – Lehrer, Organisator, Netzwerker Die Berufung Adolph Goldschmidts im Jahre 1912 als Nachfolger Wölfflins an die Friedrich- Wilhelms-Universität mag aus heutiger Sicht erstaunen, assoziiert man doch – in der gegenwär- tigen Wahrnehmung unseres Fachs – Goldschmidt eher mit einem wenig visionären Gelehrten, der zudem Wölfflin kritisch gegenüber gestanden haben soll.1 Im Gegensatz zu diesem Ein- druck stehen indes die besondere Bedeutung des Berliner Kunstgeschichtsordinariats2 in der Preußischen Hochschullandschaft sowie Goldschmidts hohes Ansehen, innerhalb wie außer- halb akademischer Kreise, das weit über seine Emeritierung im Herbst 1929 hinaus anhielt. Absicht ist es im Folgenden nicht, Goldschmidts Berliner Ordinariat umfassend darzustel- len. Im Fokus des Beitrags stehen vielmehr die Motive, die 1912 zur Berufung Goldschmidts nach Berlin geführt haben. Obwohl man an dieser Stelle nicht mit neuen Fakten aufwarten kann, so lassen sich dennoch die Gründe für diese Entscheidung konkreter fassen. Manches erschließt sich allerdings erst, berücksichtigt man neben der Goldschmidt’schen Vita auch die oben ange- sprochene Wahrnehmungsverschiebung, weshalb diese zunächst thematisiert werden soll. »War Wölfflin der bewundertste Kunsthistoriker seiner Zeit, so Goldschmidt der gelieb- teste«, schreibt Alfred Neumeyer 1967 in seinen Memoiren.3 Für die Wahrnehmung der beiden Kunsthistoriker ist Neumeyers Einschätzung gleichsam repräsentativ, gilt doch bis heute Wölfflin als geistreicher Theoretiker und Redner, Goldschmidt hingegen als verehrter Lehrer und Positivist.4 Goldschmidt hat sich in der Tat nie im großen Stil der Kunsttheorie oder epo- Gedankt sei herzlich Julien Lehmann für die Recherchen im Universitätsarchiv und Romina Nowack für die unent- behrliche Unterstützung. 1 Betthausen 1999, S. 126. – Dass Goldschmidts Forschungen »langweilig« gewesen seien, wurde auf der Tagung auch in einem Diskussionsbeitrag geäußert.

In der Kirche des Dorfes Rothsürben unweit Breslaus entdeckte ich zufällig ein gänzlich unbekanntes Werk des Adriaen de Vries. Adriaen de Vries hat keinen Namen in der Kunstgeschichte. Aeltere Nachrichten, die sich über ihn hier und da finden, sind dürftig, auch nicht frei von Widersprüchen und Fehlern. Karl van Mander erwähnt ihn kurz an einzelnen Stellen seines Schilder- buchs, Sandrart bringt zuerst eine Art von Biographie des Künstlers. Er giebt als dessen Geburtsort „Gravenhaag" an und erzählt, dass er „von der Natur selbst zum Bildhauer angetrieben sehr viele Lebens- grosse Bilder von Stein, Wachs und Erden gemacht, solche auch hernachmals in Metall gegossen und sich durch die stete Uebung mehr als kein anderer zu seiner Zeit in Ruhm gebracht, wie dieses seine sehr lobwürdige Werke erstlich in Italien allwo er die Antiken aufs genaueste ergründet an Tag legen, dann er in der Akademie zu Florenz immerzu der beste gewesen".
