  • Che Si Conoscono Al Suo Già Detto Segno Vasari's Connoisseurship In
    Che si conoscono al suo già detto segno Vasari’s connoisseurship in the field of engravings Stefano Pierguidi The esteem in which Giorgio Vasari held prints and engravers has been hotly debated in recent criticism. In 1990, Evelina Borea suggested that the author of the Lives was basically interested in prints only with regard to the authors of the inventions and not to their material execution,1 and this theory has been embraced both by David Landau2 and Robert Getscher.3 More recently, Sharon Gregory has attempted to tone down this highly critical stance, arguing that in the life of Marcantonio Raimondi 'and other engravers of prints' inserted ex novo into the edition of 1568, which offers a genuine history of the art from Maso Finiguerra to Maarten van Heemskerck, Vasari focused on the artist who made the engravings and not on the inventor of those prints, acknowledging the status of the various Agostino Veneziano, Jacopo Caraglio and Enea Vico (among many others) as individual artists with a specific and recognizable style.4 In at least one case, that of the Martyrdom of St. Lawrence engraved by Raimondi after a drawing by Baccio Bandinelli, Vasari goes so far as to heap greater praise on the engraver, clearly distinguishing the technical skills of the former from those of the inventor: [...] So when Marcantonio, having heard the whole story, finished the plate he went before Baccio could find out about it to the Pope, who took infinite 1 Evelina Borea, 'Vasari e le stampe', Prospettiva, 57–60, 1990, 35. 2 David Landau, 'Artistic Experiment and the Collector’s Print – Italy', in David Landau and Peter Parshall, The Renaissance Print 1470 - 1550, New Haven and London: Yale University Press, 1994, 284.

  • What Differentiates Renaissance Copies, Fakes and Reproductions?
    AiA Art News-service What Differentiates Renaissance Copies, Fakes and Reproductions? An Austin exhbition argues that copies, despite the negative connotations associated with the word, are not inferior to so-called “originals” Left: Albrecht Dürer, "St. Thomas," 1514 / Right: Johann Ladenspelder, "St. Thomas," circa 1535 – 1561(Blanton Museum of Art, University of Texas at Austin) By Meilan Solly SMITHSONIAN.COM MAY 7, 2019 11:33AM Throughout art history, the lines between mimicry, reproduction and forgery have often been blurred. While forgery, defined as passing one’s work off as someone else’s, is fairly easy to differentiate, the boundaries of originality are harder to tease out. Take, for example, Andy Warhol’s Pop Art Brillo Boxes—which not only copied an existing commercial design, but also exist in such quantities that it is impossible to tell which were created directly by the artist versus his team of assistants and carpenters—or Marcel Duchamp’s “L.H.O.O.Q.,” a doctored, mass-produced version of da Vinci’s “Mona Lisa” indistinguishable from the original apart from hand-drawn facial hair and a string of letters inscribed below the portrait. Looking to ancient times, BBC Culture’s Jason Farago notes, the Romans considered their contemporary replicas on par with original Greek statues—a sentiment that persists to this day, with many museums spotlighting later copies of lost classics. For Albrecht Dürer, a master painter and printmaker active during the Northern Renaissance, originality was a more straightforward concept. As he warned in the impassioned introduction to his 1511 “Life of the Virgin” series, “Beware, you envious thieves of the work and invention of others, keep your thoughtless hands from these works of ours.” But what Dürer considered plagiarism, others, including engraver Marcantonio Raimondi, viewed as tribute, or even free publicity.

  • Presents the Chiaroscuro Woodcut in Renaissance Italy, the First Major Exhibition on the Subject in the United States
    (Image captions on page 8) (Los Angeles—April 26, 2018) The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) presents The Chiaroscuro Woodcut in Renaissance Italy, the first major exhibition on the subject in the United States. Organized by LACMA in association with the National Gallery of Art, Washington, this groundbreaking show brings together some 100 rare and seldom-exhibited chiaroscuro woodcuts alongside related drawings, engravings, and sculpture, selected from 19 museum collections. With its accompanying scholarly catalogue, the exhibition explores the creative and technical history of this innovative, early color printmaking technique, offering the most comprehensive study on the remarkable art of the chiaroscuro woodcut. “LACMA has demonstrated a continued commitment to promoting and honoring the art of the print,” said LACMA CEO and Wallis Annenberg Director Michael Govan. “Los Angeles is renowned as a city that fosters technically innovative printmaking and dynamic collaborations between artists, printmakers, and master printers. This exhibition celebrates this spirit of invention and collaboration that the Renaissance chiaroscuro woodcut embodies, and aims to cast new light on and bring new appreciation to the remarkable achievements of their makers.” “Although highly prized by artists, collectors, and scholars since the Renaissance, the Italian chiaroscuro woodcut has remained one of the least understood techniques of early printmaking,” said Naoko Takahatake, curator of Prints and Drawings at LACMA and organizer of the exhibition.

  • Chastening Pictures: Donne and Aretino
    Chastening Pictures: Donne and Aretino Yulia Ryzhik i n John Donne’s Satire IV of 1597, the speaker is accosted by a garrulous courtier, who reproaches him for keeping to himself and not recognizing “of Court life…the good”. Donne counters with a Isnide remark that there is nothing good to be learned at court: but Spartans’ fashion To teach by painting drunkards doth not taste Now; Aretine’s pictures have made few chaste; No more can princes’ Courts, though there be few Better pictures of vice, teach me virtue. (lines 68–72)1 The Spartans, according to Plutarch, used to make slaves drunk to show young men the disgusting effects of drunkenness and deter them from the habit – a method that Donne finds outmoded and ineffective. The incongruous reference to painting, which was not the Spartan practice, leads to a sharper, more current statement: “Aretine’s pictures have made few chaste”, with “few” as a sardonic understatement for “none”. Donne’s two examples make an odd pairing, which suggests that although nothing good can be gained from viewing the living pictures of vice at court, sexually explicit pictures, like filthy displays of drunkenness in ancient Sparta, could be used to teach virtue by counterexample, but are simply not potent enough for the modern world. Erotic images in Renaissance literature usually signify sexual self-indulgence and serve to stimulate, or at least to supplement, lust. In The Faerie Queene, tapestries of Venus and Adonis in the Castle Joyous of Malecasta (“badly chaste”) help “kindle 1. John Donne, The Major Works, ed.

Strong, Ph.D,-Chairman California State University, Northridge ii DEDICATION I dedicate this thesis to my children Bill and Dean Shapiro. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express my appreciation to Dr. Donald S. Strong for his class in the Art of the Sixteenth century, where I became fascinated with the historiography of the period and moved by the beauty of its art. As chairman of my thesis committee, he suggested readings that were always valuable and that enabled me to begin the work of reinterpreting the St. Jerome Altarpiece. Jean Weisz of the University of California at Los Angeles was most gracious in consenting to serve on my thesis committee. With her knowledge of Sixteenth century art and her suggestions on my work in progress, she provided helpful guidance. Louise Lewis has shared her knowledge in the field of prints, and her enthusiasm has meant a great deal to me. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Page LIST OF PLATES AND SOURCES . vi ABSTRACT .. xii INTRODUCTION • . 1 Chapter 1.

  • Marcantonio Raimondi and Raphael Exhibition Guide
    Marcantonio Raimondi and Raphael Exhibition Guide Large print version Please return after use Marcantonio LARGE PRINT guide A4.indd 1 27/09/2016 13:59 Marcantonio LARGE PRINT guide A4.indd 2 27/09/2016 13:59 Introduction Between about 1510 and 1520, Marcantonio Raimondi (c.1480-c.1534) and Raphael (1483-1520) entered into a creative collaboration that gave rise to some of the most famous printed images in western art. For the frst time, an artist of Raphael’s stature turned to a printmaker to spread his innovative designs and style to new audiences. Raphael recognized Marcantonio Raimondi as a master of the new multiple medium of engraving, and Marcantonio brought an unprecedented graphic intelligence to the task of working from Raphael’s designs. Their partnership in the early 16th century changed the way we see art today. Yet Marcantonio’s close working relationship with Raphael is only one facet of his career and its impact. Throughout his life as an engraver Marcantonio made prints from his own designs as well as those of other artists, consistently fashioning innovative images for the new medium of print. Before the invention of printmaking in the mid-1440s, nearly all visual images were singular. Marcantonio was a skilled and radical innovator in the new technology of copperplate engraving – a modern invention only about ffty years old at the time – and he was instrumental in driving a proliferation of images that still reverberates in our own information age. It is worth remembering that all historic art was contemporary art when it was created.

  • Rembrandt's Durer
    embrandt van Rijn (1606/07-1669) was a master of many media. He was an artist with a wide range of interests and an encyclopedic knowledge of the Rembrandt’s Rwork of his predecessors. He collected prints and drawings by artists from Italy, Germany and the Low Countries and drew upon them as inspiration for his own work. In his pri- vate and professional life he could display traits of multiple Durer personalities. And everywhere he turned, he ran into one of the greatest predecessors of them all, the master from Nürnberg, Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528). by Gary Schwartz Rembrandt did not avoid these confrontations. He em- braced them. In this essay we will examine the meeting of two masters separated from each other by more than a century and by considerable distance. Rembrandt’s Dürer was a source of motifs and techniques. He was a teacher to whom Rembrandt turned for written instruction. He stood for an ideal of artistic prestige to which Rembrandt too aspired. And not in the last place, Rembrandt dealt in Dürers the same way as does Christopher-Clark Fine Art. Just as we acquire from others the words and languages by which we communicate our personal thoughts, artists have recourse to the same motifs and techniques used by everyone else in their field to produce their creations, no matter how personal they may be. There was no such concept in the early modern age as intellectual property. Whatever was out there was up for grabs. A particularly dramatic instance of this was the early history of one of Figure 1 Dürer’s most successful print series, The Life of the Virgin.
