Vol 3 Issue 2 Artistic Impression Vol. 3, Issue 2 February, 2021 Burlington Artists League A Word from the President Dear BAL members, Welcome to the February edition of our newsletter. Our previous editor has resigned and until we can find another one, Angela Bostek is serving as our interim editor, taking on yet another responsibility. Our profound thanks, Angela. The month of February conjures up associations with the bleak mid-winter season. On the other hand, it anticipates the arrival of spring, especially if the ground-hog’s prognostications are correct. For us, it means the Small Art Contest. I am pleased that the contest this year has been a success. The entries were as fine as ever and my thanks to all participants and congratulations to the winners! Unfortunately, due to Covid restrictions, we could not have our usual reception to honor the winners. However, as usual, all entries will be on display for the month of February. Please take an hour or so during the month to drop by the gallery to admire all the art submitted for the contest. It’s quite impressive. Now we look forward to the next competition in April. Further information will be forthcoming, watch your email. We hope you will join us for our monthly business meeting by way of Zoom on Thursday, February 18, at 3 p.m. One of the main agenda items will be a discussion of possibly adding a competition at the end of the summer and your input is valuable. In the meantime, stay warm and safe.

The Artist’s Tool Box MARIA SAHAI (QUOTE VIA MYMODERNMET.COM) Landscape and nature photographer Maria Sahai specializes in images of the Arctic. Also a public speaker and writer, Sahai also runs Full Life Photo Adventures with her husband Karim. “Beginner photographers often view more experienced artists as unreachable. I remember how many times I had a desire to ask a photographer whose work I admire about her technique, a personal path or for advice about my images. But, shame on me, I rarely did, because I always assumed the person was too important and too busy to bother answering me. Luckily, I got more courageous with time and the reality was that 90% of my questions were met with a lot of openness and friendliness. Now every now and then I get emails from beginner photographers asking for advice and I make sure to respond to each one of them. I'd say to my younger self —'Go for it! You’ll be surprised how often you'll hear yes rather than no.'” Upcoming Workshops February 17 & 24, 10a – 12p, $35 Kate Lagaly will virtually instruct in Watercolor Pencil techniques. Please email [email protected] to pre-register for the class. Once you pre-register, Carolyn will send you Kate's address. You should then mail a check to Kate.

Art-i-facts Masolino da Panicale Masolino da Panicale (nickname of Tommaso di Cristoforo Fini; c. 1383 – c. 1447) was an Italian painter. His best known works are probably his collaborations with Masaccio: Madonna with Child and St. Anne (1424) and the frescoes in the Brancacci Chapel (1424–1428). Masolino ("Little Tom") was possibly born in Panicale near Florence. He may have been an assistant to Ghiberti in Florence between 1403 and 1407. In 1423, he joined the Florentine guild Arte dei Medici e Speziali (Doctors and Apothecaries), which included painters as an independent branch. He may have been the first artist to create oil paintings in the 1420s, rather than Jan van Eyck in the 1430s, as was previously supposed. He spent many years traveling, including a trip to Hungary from September 1425 to July 1427 under the patronage of Pipo of Ozora, a mercenary captain. He was selected by Pope Martin V on the return of the papacy to Rome in 1420 to paint the altarpiece for his family chapel in the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, and later by Cardinal Branda da Castiglione to paint the 4 Vol. 3, Issue 2 February, 2021 Saint Catherine Chapel in the Basilica of San Clemente, Rome. In the interim, he collaborated with his younger colleague, Masaccio, to paint the frescoes in the Brancacci Chapel in the Basilica of Santa Maria del Carmine, Florence, which were much admired by fellow artists throughout the fifteenth century. He painted a cycle of 300 famous historical figures in the Orsini Palace in Rome about 1433-4 and also worked in Todi. He spent his later years, after 1435, working for Cardinal Branda Castiglione in Castiglione Olona. Masolino was probably the first painter to make use of a central “Vanishing point” in his 1423 painting St. Peter Healing a Cripple and the Raising of Tabitha. The Annunciation, National Gallery of Art On Display Sandra Whitesell , Angela Bostek , and Sean Leahy have photographs on display at the Center for Creative Leadership in Greensboro.

    National Gallery of Art NATIONAL GALLERY OF ART ONLINE EDITIONS Italian Paintings of the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Centuries Jacopo di Cione Florentine, c. 1340 - c. 1400? Madonna and Child with God the Father Blessing and Angels c. 1370/1375 tempera on panel painted surface: 139.8 × 67.5 cm (55 1/16 × 26 9/16 in.) overall: 141.2 × 69 × 1.5 cm (55 9/16 × 27 3/16 × 9/16 in.) framed: 156.8 x 84.1 x 6.7 cm (61 3/4 x 33 1/8 x 2 5/8 in.) Samuel H. Kress Collection 1952.5.18 ENTRY The image of Mary seated on the ground (humus) accentuates the humility of the mother of Jesus, obedient ancilla Domini (Lk 1:38). The child’s gesture, both arms raised to his mother’s breast, alludes, in turn, to another theme: the suckling of her child, a very ancient aspect of Marian iconography. In the medieval interpretation, at a time when the Virgin was often considered the symbol of the Church, the motif also alluded to the spiritual nourishment offered by the Church to the faithful. [1] As is common in paintings of the period, the stars painted on Mary’s shoulders allude to the popular etymology of her name. [2] The composition—as it is developed here—presumably was based on a famous model that perhaps had originated in the shop of Bernardo Daddi (active by 1320, died probably 1348). [3] It enjoyed considerable success in Florentine painting of the second half of the fourteenth century and even later: numerous versions of the composition are known, many of which apparently derive directly from this image in the Gallery.

  • Circolo Culturale Masolino Da Panicale
    Masolino da Panicale Tommaso di Cristoforo FiniFini, noto come Masolino da PanicaPanicalPanica llleeee, nasce a San Giovanni Valdarno (Arezzo) nel 1383 ma dei suoi primi quarant’anni di vita non si sa praticamente nulla anche se si parla di un apprendistato presso la bottega di Gherardo Stamina e di una successiva in quella di Lorenzo Ghiberti nei primi anni del Quattrocento. Le prime notizie certe sono del 1422 quando il pittore prende in affitto una casa a Firenze iscrivendosi, l’anno successivo, alla corporazione dell’Arte dei Medici e Speziali che includeva anche l’arte pittorica. Per molto tempo si pensò a Masolino come maestro di Masaccio, ipotesi che venne poi scartata preferendo a questa quella di “collaboratore professionale”, un intesa che portò i due alla realizzazione di diverse opere a “quattro mani”. La prima opera conosciuta del pittore è “Madonna con Bambino” datata 1423, probabilmente ricordo di un matrimonio tra le famiglie Boni e Carnesecchi come si rileva, alla base del dipinto, dagli stemmi delle due famiglie, opera, in parte legata agli schemi tardo gotici, oggi conservata al Kunsthalle di Brema. Dello stesso periodo, ma decisamente legato al gotico, è la “Madonna dell’Umiltà” oggi conservata alla Galleria degli Uffizi di Firenze. Nel 1424 Masolino lavora ad Empoli, probabilmente assistito da Francesco d’Antonio, artista minore uscito dall'orbita di Lorenzo Monaco, eseguendo un vasto ciclo di affreschi nella Chiesa di Santo Stefano, dei quali però restano solo pochi frammenti quali “Sant'Ivo e i pupilli” e “Vergine col Bambino”. Nel Battistero della Collegiata affrescò inoltre un “Cristo in pietà”, oggi nel Museo della Collegiata di Sant’Andrea.

  • Early Renaissance
    Caroline Mc Corriston Early Renaissance Masaccio (1401- 1428) Italian ​ He was born as Tommaso Cassai but later became known as Masaccio, which is a pet name for Tommaso. It is not known where he trained as an artist. When he joined the artists guild of Florence in 1422 he was already an independant artist with his own workshop. He is most famous for his expert use of central perspective in his paintings, which was a technique developed to create the illusion of depth and space by Giotto, Ghiberti and Donatello. From Giotto he also learned to create three dimensional space, sculptural, realistic and naturalistic expressions and gestures. He preferred Greek and Roman sculpture rather than Gothic. ● The artist began by drawing a grid and sketching the objects and figures into it. ● He then chose a standpoint of the viewer in the centre of the painting. This is also called the vanishing point or centre of perspective. ● Using thread, he then measured lines outwards from the vanishing point to the objects and figures. This informed him of the depth of the objects within the painting. From this, he could figure out the sizes and dimensions of objects giving the impression they are receding into the distance or appearing close up. Important Works The Brancacci Chapel Frescoes, 1424-28 ● The frescoes that adorn the walls of the Brancacci Chapel in Florence are among the most famous of the entire Renaissance period. They are the result of contributions from a number of artists, including Masaccio. ● Masolino da Panicale began the paintings in 1424, assisted by a young Masaccio ● Masaccio took over the project in 1425 until his death in 1428 ● Filippino Lippi then completed the paintings.

  • Beato Angelico
    Beato Angelico Luce divina e ambienti reali Nato a Vicchio nel 1395 Angelico è un frate domenicano di umili origini, con un grande talento per la pittura che mette al servizio della fede, creando immagini per la preghiera e la meditazione. Poco dopo la sua morte, avvenuta a Roma nel 1455, è già conosciuto da tutti come l'Angelico e con il passare dei secoli la gente inizia persino a chiamarlo Beato Angelico, la Chiesa nel 1982 lo proclamerà beato. Attorno alla figura del frate pittore sono nate molte leggende. Si racconta che non dipingesse senza prima aver pregato e non correggesse mai le sue opere, perché era convinto che ogni pennellata avesse un'origine divina. Per tutta la vita dipinge soggetti sacri Beato Angelico, Particolare dalla Pala di Fiesole (1424-1425 circa), Fiesole, Chiesa di San Domenico. L'opera è considerata la prima conosciuta dell'Angelico Quando l'Angelico, che aveva cominciato come miniatore, iniziò a dare prove pubbliche della sua arte, Masaccio era morto, Donatello era a Padova, Gentile da Fabriano a Roma. Nel 1434 giunse a Firenze il papa Eugenio IV. Con lui era Leon Battista Alberti. L'incontro con le forze vive della città scosse profondamente Leon Battista, che scrisse allora il primo trattato teorico sulla pittura, dove nomina : Filippo Brunelleschi, Luca della Robbia, Lorenzo Ghiberti, Maso di Bartolomeo, non nomina Angelico perché ne rispetta i voti di umiltà, era l'Angelico. BEATO ANGELICO Caratteristica delle opere dell'Angelico è il cromatismo delicato e l'uso di una illuminazione piena; nelle sue prime

  • Picturing the Poor in Renaissance Italy Megan Cheng Director
    ABSTRACT Portraits of Compassion: Picturing the Poor in Renaissance Italy Megan Cheng Director: Alden Smith, Ph.D. At the beginning of the Renaissance, social policy towards the poor was geared only to help Christ’s poor: the orphaned, widowed, and disabled. The working poor received little, if any, assistance, and “false beggars,” or those who were able-bodied but thought to be too lazy to work, faced stiff penalties such as imprisonment and flogging. By the end of the Renaissance, however, there was recognition that poverty affected more than just those whom the New Testament describes as the most needy (James 1:27 “Pure religion and undefiled before God the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction…”). In this thesis, I note the growing presence of the poor in Renaissance art and observe how artists influenced and recorded these changing attitudes towards the poor in fifteenth century Florentine art. The thesis closes with an afterword where I also note modern parallels in social attitudes towards the poor and examine how art continues to play an important role in shaping opinions about poverty today.
