Press Release
FRICK TO PRESENT FIRST MAJOR NORTH AMERICAN EXHIBITION ON RENAISSANCE PAINTER GIOVANNI BATTISTA MORONI MORONI: THE RICHES OF RENAISSANCE PORTRAITURE February 21 through June 2, 2019 In Renaissance Italy, one of the aims of portraiture was to make the absent seem present through naturalistic representation of the sitter. This notion—that art can capture an individual exactly as he or she appears—is exemplified in the work of Giovanni Battista Moroni. The artist spent his entire career in and around his native Bergamo, a region in Lombardy northeast of Milan, and left a corpus of portraits that far outnumbers those of his contemporaries who worked in major artistic centers, including Titian in Venice and Bronzino in Florence. Though Moroni never achieved their fame, he innovated the genre of portraiture in spectacular ways. This winter and spring, Giovanni Battista Moroni (b. 1520–24; d. 1579/80), Portrait of a Young Woman, ca. 1575, oil on canvas, private collection; photo: the Frick presents the first major exhibition in North Michael Bodycomb America devoted to his work, bringing together nearly two dozen of Moroni’s most arresting and best known portraits from international collections to explore the innovations and experiments that belie his masterful illusion of recording reality. They will be shown alongside a selection of complementary objects— Renaissance jewelry, textiles, arms and armor, and other luxury items—that exemplify the material and visual world that Moroni recorded, embellished, and transformed. Moroni: Moroni, Giovanni Gerolamo Grumelli, called The Man in Pink, dated 1560, oil on canvas, Fondazione Museo di Palazzo Moroni, Bergamo–Lucretia The Riches of Renaissance Portraiture was organized by Aimee Ng, Associate Curator, Moroni Collection; photo: Mauro Magliani 1 The Frick Collection; Simone Facchinetti, Researcher, Università del Salento, Lecce; and Arturo Galansino, Director General, Palazzo Strozzi, Florence.

Libraries: Architecture and the Ordering of Knowledge
Libraries: Architecture and the Ordering of Knowledge English text of March 29, 2009, by J. Connors for “Biblioteche: l’architettura e l’ordinamento del sapere,” with Angela Dressen, in Il Rinascimento Italiano e l’Europa, vol. 6, Luoghi, spazi, architetture, ed. Donatella Calabi and Elena Svalduz, Treviso-Costabissara, 2010, pp. 199-228. All the texts describing ancient libraries had been rediscovered by the mid-Quattrocento. Humanists knew Greek and Roman libraries from the accounts in Strabo, Varro, Seneca, and especially Suetonius, himself a former prefect of the imperial libraries. From Pliny everyone knew that Asinius Pollio founded the first public library in Rome, fulfilling the unrealized wish of Juliuys Caesar ("Ingenia hominum rem publicam fecit," "He made men's talents public property"). From Suetonius it was known that Augustus founded two libraries, one in the Porticus Octaviae, and another, for Greek and Latin books, in the temple of Apollo on the Palatine, where the sculptural decoration included not only a colossal statue of Apollo but also portraits of celebrated writers. The texts spoke frequently of author portraits, and also of the wealth and splendor of ancient libraries. The presses for the papyrus rolls were made of ebony and cedar; the architectural order and the revetments of the rooms were of marble; the sculpture was of gilt bronze. Boethius added that libraries were adorned with ivory and glass, while Isidore mentioned gilt ceilings and restful green cipollino floors. Senecan disapproval of ostentatious libraries, of "studiosa luxuria," of piling up more books than one could ever read, gave way to admiration for magnificent libraries.

Chapter �� The Musaeum: Its Contents 12.1 Introduction When Strada in 1568 thanked Duke Guglielmo of Mantua for the benefice conferred on his elder son Paolo, he offered the use of his house to the Duke, providing a brief description of its contents and adding that ‘most of these things have been seen by all those gentlemen of the court of Your Excellency that have been here [in Vienna]’.1 This confirms the accessibility of Strada’s Musaeum and the representative function it fulfilled. To have any idea of the impact the Musaeum had on such visitors, it is useful to provide a quick sketch of its contents. A sketch, an impression: not a reconstruction. There are a number of sourc- es which give a very elementary impression of what Strada’s studiolo may have looked like, and there are some other sources which give slightly more con- crete information on which specific objects, or type of objects, passed through his hands. Some of these—in particular the large-scale acquisitions of antique sculpture for the Duke of Bavaria in 1566–1569—were certainly not intended for Strada’s own collection, and they did never even come to Vienna. In most cases the information is too scanty to identify objects mentioned with any cer- tainty, or to determine what their destination was. We just do not know wheth- er Strada bought them on behalf of the Emperor, whether he bought them on commission from other patrons, whether he bought them on speculation— that is as a true art-dealer, hoping to sell them to the visitors of his house or dispose of them advantageously in some other way—or whether he bought them after all just for his own collection.

(år) Vårterm. (år) Sommartermin (år) 2021 The portrait of sculptor emerged in the sixteenth century, where the sitter’s occupation was indicated by his holding a statue. This thesis has focus on portraits of sculptors at the turn of 1900, which have indications of profession. 60 artworks created between 1872 and 1927 are analyzed. The goal of the thesis is to identify new facets that modernism introduced to the portraits of sculptors. The thesis covers the evolution of artistic convention in the depiction of sculptor. The comparison of portraits at the turn of 1900 with portraits of sculptors from previous epochs is included. The thesis is also a contribution to the bibliography of portraits of sculptors. 2 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor Karin Wahlberg Liljeström for her help and advice.

Museo Correr
Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia — The neo-classical rooms and the Canova collection Museo Correr ENG The neo-classical rooms and the Canova collection The Correr Museum is laid out in various sections that offer a fascinating insight into the art and history of Venice. The first section occupies the Napoleonic Wing, a 19th century kings and emperors’ palace; here the sumptuous Neoclassical Rooms house a noteworthy collection of works by the great Antonio Canova Museo Correr sculptor (1757-1822). Venice, St. Mark’s Square LAYOUT AND COLLECTIONS BALLROOM This sumptuous and opulent ballroom is unique in the palace for the thoroughness and refinement of its Empire-style decor. Lorenzo Santi began work on the design in 1822, and Giuseppe Borsato completed the decoration in 1837/38. At either end, the room is bound by loggias intended to house the orchestra; above the gilded Corinthian capitals of these fluted columns in polished stucco are two small apses that make the upper area of the ballroom into an oval. The centre of the ceiling is frescoed with Peace surrounded by the Virtues and the Geni of Olympus. Painted by Odorico Politi, the work is a clear reference to the restoration of the Hapsburgs after the period of Napoleon. The door on the right at the end of the room leads to the beginning of the new itinerary of the Imperial rooms. — ROOM I - CANOVA COLLECTION Sala del Trono Lombardo–Veneto Canova, from the drawing to the model: Ballroom from an idea to the form in space Museo Correr The museum houses a large nucleus of autograph drawings from the collections of illustrious figures that knew Canova (Leopoldo Cicognara, Bartolomeo Gamba, Francesco Aglietti etc.).

A Day in Venice"
"A Day in Venice" Criado por : Cityseeker 12 Localizações indicadas Praça de São Marcos "World-Famous Piazza" The only Venetian square to be granted the title of 'piazza', St. Mark's Square, or Piazza San Marco, is the city's political, religious and social center. The square lies at one end of the Grand Canal, surrounded by some of the city's most iconic historic edifices. The Basilica di San Marco is the focal point of the square - a 12th-century, Venetian-Byzantine by Zairon church highlighted with gold mosaics and lavish carvings. On either side lie the Procuratie Vecchie, stately buildings that once harbored the offices and apartments of the procurators. Two columns erected in honor of the city's patron saints, St. Mark and St. Theodore of Amasea, stand nearby, while the splendid Doge's Palace, the towering Campanile, the Procuratie Nuove, the National Library, and a couple of museums take up the rest of the space around Venice's largest square. The city's history comes together at the awe-inspiring St. Mark's Square. +39 041 724 1040 Piazza San Marco, Veneza St Mark's Campanile "Panoramic View of the City" You get a splendid view of Venice and the Basilica di San Marco from the tallest bell tower in Venice. It can be seen from the laguna and once you have reached the top, the whole laguna can be seen from above. Even though the Basilica di San Marco-Campanile was erected at the beginning of the 20th Century, it is an exact replica of the 15th-century bell tower.

Carlo Corsato and Deborah Howard (Eds.), Santa Maria Gloriosa Dei Frari: Immagini Di Devozione, Spazi Della Fede / Devotional Spaces, Images of Piety
Carlo Corsato and Deborah Howard (eds.), Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari: Immagini di Devozione, Spazi della Fede / Devotional Spaces, Images of Piety. Padua: Centro Studi Antoniani, 2015. xxviii + 324 pp. 128 plates. € 50. ISBN 978-8895908007 (pb). This book is not, as one might expect, a book of art or architectural history, although these subjects receive ample attention on its pages. It is first and foremost a book that aims to approach its topic, the Venetian church of the Frari, as a ‘living organism’ (ix) whose history did not end at any one time and which continues to serve visitors and Venetians alike. Despite this – or perhaps rather because of this – it has much to offer those with an interest in the period of the Renaissance. Based on a conference held in Venice in 2013 and consisting of twenty-four chapters by twenty-seven different authors, this is the closest to a monograph on Venice’s largest Franciscan church, and major landmark, that has ever been produced. At the same time it inevitably serves some topics and periods better than others. In their introductory chapter, Carlo Corsato and Deborah Howard outline their project’s ambition to study the church and the art, music and religious ritual it contained together in its manifold interactions and from a range of disciplinary perspectives. As such, it builds on the crucial work about the Frari by Rona Goffen and others. Corsato and Howard’s book coincides with the publication of a range of multi-authored, multidisciplinary projects about Venetian churches, the Chiese di Venezia series published by Marcianum Press, and it is perhaps to be regretted that theirs was not incorporated in this series.

VILLA DI MASER World Heritage
VILLA DI MASER World Heritage The Villa was built between 1550 and 1560 by Andrea Palladio for Daniele Barbaro, Patriarch of Aquileia, and his brother Marcantonio Ambassador of the Venetian Republic, trasforming the medieval palace of Maser into a splendid country residence, masterpiece of the Venetian Reneissance. Paolo Veronese decorated the Villa with his vastest and most important cycle of frescoes, while Alessandro Vittoria, brilliant pupil of Sansovino, cured the stuccos. The Villa passed by marriage from the Barbaro to the Trevisan, to the Basadonna, finally to the family of Ludovico Manin, the last Doge of Venice. In 1838, the Manin sold it to Gian Battista Colferai, who had been renting it as a country residence, but his daughters, suspicious of each other, not wanting to invest in a propriety individed within the family, let the Villa go into complete ruin. In 1850 the industrialist Sante Giacomelli bought it and completely restaured and rennovated it, with the assistance of artists like Zanotti and Moretto Larese. In 1934 Carlo Giacomelli sold it to Giuseppe Volpi di Misurata, and the Villa became the home of his daughter Marina who continued with immense care and love the works of restauration throughout the years. Her daughter now lives in it with her family. GUIDE TO THE VISIT 2. "CROCIERA" OR CRUCIFORM HALL The six illusionistic landscapes had been covered in 1850-52 by different paintings more in tune with the fashion of the time. Uncovered in 1934, the four landscapes towards the central balcony were reconstructed, while of the two near the entrance stairways one was left to testify the conditions in which it was discovered, the other was restaured more respectfully.

Venetian Well-Heads in Nineteenth-Century Taste
05-425290.qxd:Main article template.qxd 31/3/10 08:45 Page 49 Anna Tüskés Venetian well-heads in nineteenth-century taste Venetian well-heads may not strike the modern researcher as objects of any special importance, rooted as they are in everyday life as basic parts in the water- system. Instead, these works of art are mostly displayed in museums or can be found in public and private collections from the United States to Russia. Many well-heads have been destroyed or lost. Surviving examples are, in many cases, deprived of their original function, and are used for decorative purposes, for example as flowerpots in private gardens or parks. This loss of function poses several problems for the researcher that render the actual historical investigation all the more difficult. The aim of this article is to show how the growing cult of Venice contributed to the emergence of well-heads in Anglo-American literature, and to the development and re-animation of the related branch of the art trade in the nineteenth century. After a review of travel journals and other literary works, copies, forgeries, and the activity of collectors and dealers in the late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century art trade, three newly identified well-heads will be presented as examples. These were previously thought to have been lost and have not been analysed in the context of Venetian carvings. At first, interest in well-heads was often connected to commercial activities. During the nineteenth century, those who studied well-heads were mostly sculptors and art dealers, as well as art historians sent to Venice from foreign countries as agents for various museums.
