Progetto editoriale: Angelo Pontecorboli Tutti i diritti riservati Angelo Pontecorboli Editore, Firenze www.pontecorboli.com – [email protected] ISBN 978-88-00000-00-0 2 Mariella Zoppi e European Garden ANGELO PONTECORBOLI EDITORE FIRENZE 3 4 C 5 Introduction As with all written histories of the garden, this one begins with the most ancient civilizations and thus dedicates much attention to the Roman Empire. is way, the ordinary has little that is ritual or can be foreseen and one can witness the true origins of gardens which arrived from western culture. ese origins were not lost in the centuries which passed by each other, but were a constant source of inspiration for the civilizations which came and went in the Mediterranean Basin. e Mediterranean, for an extremely long period stretching from 2000 BC to the late fourteenth century, was almost exclusively the scenery of western culture. Diverse peoples acquired economic and political hegemony, they imposed laws, customs and artistic models which merged with pre-existing backgrounds and styles which then expanded throughout Northern European and African countries. Ideas from the East, such as science, religion and artistic models, fil- tered throughout the Mediterranean. Nomadic populations reached Mediterranean shores and so cultures and customs were brought to- gether for several centuries in a relatively small circle. It was on the edges of the Mediterranean where the two fundamental ideas of gar- den design, the formal and the informal, were created and confronted each other. Here, the garden became the idealization of a perfect and immutable world, the mimesis of nature.

  • Production at Doccia Between 1790 -1847 and Royal Commissions for the Lucca Palaces
    PRODUCTION AT DOCCIA BETWEEN 1790 -1847 AND ROYAL COMMISSIONS FOR THE LUCCA PALACES By Atidrcina d’Agliano Production at the Doccia manufactory in the last decade of the 18th century was particularly influ­ enced by the taste for the antique, which affected the development of the Tuscan manufactory in two principal directions. On the one hand there was the influence of the taste for classical ruins introduced through prints by French artists working in Rome in the circle of Piranesi1, and on the other hand the archaeological discoveries made in Naples, and the dynastic links between the Neapolitan and the Florentine courts, which added extensive Neapolitan iconographical sources to the Doccia repertoire2. In 1785, the extremely good relationship between the Marchesi Ginori and the Neapolitan sovereigns inspired Ferdinand IV of Naples to send Lorenzo Ginori the first two volumes of the most valuable publication to be printed in Naples, Le Antichitd di Ercolano esposte. This was a collection of prints repre­ senting the frescoes and statues brought to light during the archaeological excavations at Hercula­ Figure 2.

  • PIAZZA SIGNORIA E DINTORNI Centro Storico Di Firenze Inscritto Nella Lista Del Patrimonio Mondiale Nel 1982 SOMMARIO / TABLE of CONTENTS
    PIAZZA SIGNORIA E DINTORNI Centro Storico di Firenze inscritto nella Lista del Patrimonio Mondiale nel 1982 SOMMARIO / TABLE OF CONTENTS Storia History 4 Itinerario Itinerary 7 Approfondimenti Further Insights 21 Informazioni Information 55 HISTORY In questa visita ti porteremo attraverso il Centro Storico a spasso nel cuore politico e commerciale della città, in alcune delle piazze più belle di Firenze, da piazza della Repubblica a piazza della Signoria. Questa area era una delle più caratteristiche di Firenze, punteggiata non solo di chiese, tabernacoli, torri medievali, palazzi nobiliari, ma anche di botteghe storiche e delle sedi delle corporazioni delle Arti. Avevano qui sede soprattutto botteghe di abbigliamento e di calzature, ma anche laboratori di artisti come Donatello e Michelozzo. Traccia di questa antica presenza sono, ad esempio, le monumentali statue delle nicchie di Orsanmichele, ciascuna dedicata ai rispettivi santi protettori delle diverse Arti e opera di grandi scultori come Donatello, Verrocchio, Ghiberti e Giambologna. L’intera area subì pesanti trasformazioni a fine Ottocento, in occasione di Firenze capitale d’Italia, trasformazioni che interessarono non soltanto piazza della Repubblica, ma anche via dei Calzaiuoli, sottoposta a diversi progetti di ampliamento. Piazza della Repubblica, centro nevralgico fin da epoca romana, che aveva mantenuto durante tutto il Medioevo la funzione di luogo di ritrovo destinato al commercio, vide stravolto il proprio assetto. A conservare in gran parte, invece, il proprio antico aspetto è stata piazza della Signoria, zona di grande importanza fin dall’epoca romana, i cui resti sono ancora oggi visitabili sotto Palazzo Vecchio. La piazza iniziò ad assumere l’attuale forma intorno al 1268, in seguito alla demolizione delle case dei Ghibellini da parte dei Guelfi vincitori.

  • The Palazzi of Lucca
    The Palazzi of Lucca PALAZZI 287 Palazzi For entries followed by (F) the family is dealt with in the Family section. 1. Palazzo Moriconi—Reconstructed in the 1500s on medieval houses and the remains of the Roman theatre. The entranceway with a lovely iron lunette is very similar to the nearby Palazzo Fanucci (#7). Evidence of Guelph windows can be seen on the piano nobile. (F) 2. Palazzo Boccella—One of the grandest and most interesting mansions. It was built in the 1500s and 1600s by the extremely wealthy Boccella family in the Manneristic style of the great Tuscan villas. It is an extravagance in conservative Lucca and was looked on somewhat askance when it was built. The exterior has a profusion of fantastic mascheroni (grotesque masks), an imposing main entrance, and excellent detailing on the wood eaves. The interior was once elaborately painted and the salon is still in excellent condition. The themes of its paintings are somewhat uncertain, portraying what looks like Pope Julius II but is perhaps Paul III, who visited Lucca in 1541. (The Boccella family had long and close ties with the papacy.) Another painting portrays a victory over the Turks, and others show familial scenes and banquets, all done in a vibrant Mannerist palette. The stemma (coat of arms) over the main door is that of the Bernardini, who were its later owners. (F) 3. Palazzo Ottolini—Today best known as Palazzo Poschi Meuron. Along Via San Giorgio it has a typical Lucchese façade of the 1500s, understated but with a grand entrance door.

  • Urns, Planters & Finials
    Urns, Planters & Finials ‘A vase with a rounded body, usually a narrowed mouth and often a foot’. The Urn, alongside Statues and Fountains, is one of the key elements in any classic garden and as such can be traced back to Antiquity. It is here that many of the models we are familiar with today were conceived and with the rebirth in the Italian Renaissance of interest in the classical world, newly discovered (excavated) models laid the foundations for the designs of the preceding centuries. The most famous and much copied examples are the Vases Borghese, discovered around 1569 near the present day Casino Massimo in Rome, and Medici, discovered around the same time at the Villa Medici also in Rome. The Borghese Vase came to its namesake Villa in 1645 and there it stayed for 150 years until purchased by Napoleon and transported back to Paris around 1809, eventually being on permanent display at the Louvre. The Medici Vase, now in the Uffizzi Florence, is often paired with the Borghese Vase. One sees these models being copied in Terracotta by Coade and then Blashfield, in the late 18th and early 19th Centuries. However, they were not only copied in terracotta – stone, marble, lead, bronze, and cast iron versions have been made by many makers, such is the iconic power of these beautiful urns. The Warwick and Townley vases, both discovered by Gavin Hamilton, the former at Hadrian’s Villa in 1770, have also been much copied. Their stories give a sense of how it was in the 18th Century with the great collecting wealth of the English Country House and the Grand Tour that developed the English love of Neo Classical ornamentation in the garden.
