Press Release: Jubilee for Catechists Catechists from around the World in Rome for the Jubilee Contemplating Mercy in Caravaggio’s painting, in the Church of San Luigi dei Francesi, which can be admired this evening during special hours, from 20:00 to 22:00 . The Jubilee for Catechists is in full swing in Rome today, welcoming catechists present from all over the world. The Jubilee event began yesterday at 18:00 with reflections on“Contemplating Mercy” on the basis of the theme “Miserando atque eligendo” (Showing mercy and choosing) in Caravaggio’s painting "The Call of Saint Matthew" , located in the Contarelli Chapel of the Church of San Luigi dei Francesi. Thousands of pilgrims attended the catecheses, which were presented for different lingustic groups. The Church of San Luigi dei Francesi will remain open from 20:00 to 22:00 to allow the catechists on pilgrimage to contemplate Caravaggio’s painting. Today, between 9:00 and 14:00, pilgrims can frequent Eucharistic Adoration and the sacrament of reconciliation in the Jubilee Churches (S.Salvatore in Lauro, S. Maria in Vallicella, S. Giovanni Battista dei Fiorentini), and make the Pilgrimage to the Holy Door of Saint Peter’s Basilica, passing through the special display”In the Footsteps of the Saints and Blesseds of Catechesis”. In the afternoon, the catechesis on mercy will be presented in Italian at 16:00 in the Basilica of Saint Paul Outside the Walls, followed by several testimonies and Evening Prayer (Vespers) at 18:00. The Jubilee for Catechists will reach its culmination tomorrow at 10:30 with the Celebration of the Eucharist by Pope Francis in Saint Peter’s Square. www.im.va - 1 -.

Ribera's Drunken Silenusand Saint Jerome
99 NAPLES IN FLESH AND BONES: RIBERA’S DRUNKEN SILENUS AND SAINT JEROME Edward Payne Abstract Jusepe de Ribera did not begin to sign his paintings consistently until 1626, the year in which he executed two monumental works: the Drunken Silenus and Saint Jerome and the Angel of Judgement (Museo di Capodimonte, Naples). Both paintings include elaborate Latin inscriptions stating that they were executed in Naples, the city in which the artist had resided for the past decade and where he ultimately remained for the rest of his life. Taking each in turn, this essay explores the nature and implications of these inscriptions, and offers new interpretations of the paintings. I argue that these complex representations of mythological and religious subjects – that were destined, respectively, for a private collection and a Neapolitan church – may be read as incarnations of the city of Naples. Naming the paintings’ place of production and the artist’s city of residence in the signature formulae was thus not coincidental or marginal, but rather indicative of Ribera inscribing himself textually, pictorially and corporeally in the fabric of the city. Keywords: allegory, inscription, Naples, realism, Jusepe de Ribera, Saint Jerome, satire, senses, Silenus Full text: http://openartsjournal.org/issue-6/article-5 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5456/issn.2050-3679/2018w05 Biographical note Edward Payne is Head Curator of Spanish Art at The Auckland Project and an Honorary Fellow at Durham University. He previously served as the inaugural Meadows/Mellon/Prado Curatorial Fellow at the Meadows Museum (2014–16) and as the Moore Curatorial Fellow in Drawings and Prints at the Morgan Library & Museum (2012–14).

Journal of Arts & Humanities Volume 09, Issue 06, 2020: 01-11 Article Received: 26-04-2020 Accepted: 05-06-2020 Available Online: 13-06-2020 ISSN: 2167-9045 (Print), 2167-9053 (Online) DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.18533/journal.v9i6.1920 Caravaggio and Tenebrism—Beauty of light and shadow in baroque paintings Andy Xu1 ABSTRACT The following paper examines the reasons behind the use of tenebrism by Caravaggio under the special context of Counter-Reformation and its influence on later artists during the Baroque in Northern Europe. As Protestantism expanded throughout the entire Europe, the Catholic Church was seeking artistic methods to reattract believers. Being the precursor of Counter-Reformation art, Caravaggio incorporated tenebrism in his paintings. Art historians mostly correlate the use of tenebrism with religion, but there have also been scholars proposing how tenebrism reflects a unique naturalism that only belongs to Caravaggio. The paper will thus start with the introduction of tenebrism, discuss the two major uses of this artistic technique and will finally discuss Caravaggio’s legacy until today. Keywords: Caravaggio, Tenebrism, Counter-Reformation, Baroque, Painting, Religion. This is an open access article under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 License. 1. Introduction Most scholars agree that the Baroque range approximately from 1600 to 1750. There are mainly four aspects that led to the Baroque: scientific experimentation, free-market economies in Northern Europe, new philosophical and political ideas, and the division in the Catholic Church due to criticism of its corruption. Despite the fact that Galileo's discovery in astronomy, the Tulip bulb craze in Amsterdam, the diplomatic artworks by Peter Paul Rubens, the music by Johann Sebastian Bach, the Mercantilist economic theories of Colbert, the Absolutism in France are all fascinating, this paper will focus on the sophisticated and dramatic production of Catholic art during the Counter-Reformation ("Baroque Art and Architecture," n.d.).

WALK ONE Campo Dei Fiori; Small Lanes; Chiesa Nuova; Piazza Navona
WALK ONE Campo dei Fiori; small lanes; Chiesa Nuova; Piazza Navona. CAMPO DEI FIORI Begin your first morning in the center of Rome at Campo dei Fiori, the best outdoor fruit and vegetable market. Then spend the rest of the day on a walking tour through some of the most fascinating and historic neighborhoods within the curve of the Tiber River. Campo dei Fiori is teeming with friendly people, tasty fruits, vibrant colors, animated conversations, varieties of vegetables, sweet smells, energetic vendors, local shoppers, and atmo- sphere galore. This setting is perfect, surrounded by very old buildings with cobbled pedestrian lanes leading off in all direc- tions into a great neighborhood we shall explore next. This friendly and lively piazza is one of the major focal points of the city, just three blocks south of Piazza Navona (coming up later in this walk) and an easy walk if your hotel is in the historic center. If you’re staying further away, take a taxi. Arriving any time in the morning is good, but earlier is better. Campo dei Fiori makes a great startfor our walk: it is the only main attraction opening by 6am and it is simply a wonderful morning scene. This magical Campo has multiple personali- ties, changing character throughout the day: Rome’s main veg- gie market in the morning, a ring of busy restaurants at lunch, peaceful in the afternoon, and a party scene at night. Campo dei Fiori’s produce stands are very popular with the nearby residents and chefs seeking fresh items on their daily shopping rounds.

Chiesa Di San Luigi Dei Francesi in Campo Marzio
(092/37) Chiesa di San Luigi dei Francesi in Campo Marzio San Luigi dei Francesi is the 16th century titular and French national church located near Piazza Navona in rione VIII (Sant’Eustachio). The full dedication is to the Blessed Virgin Mary, St Dionysius (St Denis) and St Louis IX, King of France. History: The site was acquired by the French community in Rome from the monks of the Abbey of Farfam in 1478. The deal was facilitated by Cardinal Guillaume d'Estouteville. Pope Sixtus IV approved the project, sponsored by King Louis XI, and authorized the foundation of the Confraternita della Concezione della Beata Vergine Maria, San Dionigi et San Luigi Re di Francia, the ancestor of the present Les Pieux Etablissements. The area was full of remains of Roman buildings, including the Baths of Alexander Severus and the Baths of Nero. Pope Sixtus IV (1471-1484) confirmed the exchange uniting various small churches into a single parish in honor of “The Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. Dionigi (Denis) and St. Louis, King of France” (patron saints of the French nation), and also set up a Confraternity with the same name to manage the area. In the early 16th century, the Medici family took over. Cardinal Giulio de Medici, later Pope Clement VII, commissioned Jean de Chenevière to build a small round church for the French community here in 1518. Building was halted when Rome was sacked in 1527. In the mid-16th century, with the support from Caterina de’Medici who lived in the nearby Palazzo Madama, a new church was begun.

You are required to closely examine the below prior to our travel to Italy. While abroad, you must be prepared to discuss these ideas and academic resources. I will be leading several discussion sessions while in Italy, and it is imperative that you are prepared for the conversation. Additionally, if you do not closely look over the below readings and videos, you will have no context for our museum visits. The result will be an experience that is not as deep and rich as possible. Additionally, being unprepared and non- participatory in the discussions will adversely affect your grade. To help you prepare, I listed a series of questions and bullets I will use to drive the discussions. I also inserted many webpage Wiki links to supplement the readings. I urge you to look these over as well. As you read/watch these items, please take notes when appropriate so you will be able to contribute to the conversation and ask pertinent questions.

Matthew Page 7 2.3 The Calling of S. Matthew Page 13 3.1 The Shape of Art to Come Page 19 Sources Bibliography Page 20 1 1.1 Caravaggio and Rome In 1599, while a young Caravaggio was working on his first public commission for the decoration of the Contarelli Chapel, another great artist whose name was William Shakespeare wrote “All the world’s a stage, And all the men and women merely players, They have their exits and their entrances”1. It is a fascinating notion put fourth by the English playwright that life follows art, that our journey from birth to death has its entrances on the world’s stage as well as its exits. For most their entrances are minor in the vast theatre of history. But for those who aspired to greatness their entrances forever changed the story and structure of history. Caravaggio was one of these. His story, perhaps even to a greater extent than most other stories of the life of an artist, shares a narrative of the common tropes of literary frameworks and structure. His artistic story begins in the late Cinquecento Italian high renaissance as an apprentice of Simone Peterzano in the city of Milano, the birthplace of Caravaggio.2 Caravaggio artistic journey would however find no prosperity in Milano.

In the autograph works are included all paintings which on documentary or stylistic evidence appear to be by, or partly by, the hand of Caravaggio. The attributed works include all paintings that have been associated with Caravaggio’s name in critical writings but which, in the opinion of the present writer, cannot be fully accepted as his, and those of uncertain attribution which he has not been able to examine personally. Some works listed here as copies are regarded as autograph by other authorities. Lost works, whose catalogue numbers are preceded by “L,” are paintings whose current whereabouts are unknown which are ascribed to Caravaggio in seventeenth-century documents, inventories, and in other sources. The catalogue of lost works describes a wide variety of material, including paintings considered copies of lost originals. Entries for untraced paintings include the city where they were identified in either a seventeenth-century source or inventory (“Inv.”). Most of the inventories have been published in the Getty Provenance Index, Los Angeles. Provenance, documents and sources, inventories and selective bibliographies are provided for the paintings by, after, and attributed to Caravaggio.

W. NORTON AND COMPANY Ƌ ƋĐƋ W. W. Norton & Company has been independent since its founding in 1923, when William Warder Norton and Mary D. Herter Norton first published lectures delivered at the People’s Institute, the adult education division of New York City’s Cooper Union. The firm soon expanded its program beyond the Institute, publishing books by celebrated academics from America and abroad. By midcentury, the two major pillars of Norton’s publishing program—trade books and college texts— were firmly established. In the 1950s, the Norton family transferred control of the company to its employees, and today—with a staff of four hundred and a comparable number of trade, college, and professional titles published each year—W.
