It was built around 1365 to house Edward III’s personal treasure as part of the palace at Westminster, and is one of the few buildings from this complex to survive today. In the 17th century, the Jewel Tower became the record office for the Houses of Lords and from 1869, it was the home of the Weights and Measures office, which set standards used across the British Empire.

The reports on the qualitative targets demonstrate just a sample of the many projects and activities through which the V&A helps the DCMS to deliver on its strategic priorities. Of course, the Funding Agreement does not cover everything that an organisation as diverse and complex as the V&A does. For the bigger picture, please see the V&A Annual Review of 2003/04 or the V&A Plan 2004/05 (which reports on the V&A Plan 2003/04), both of which are available from the V&A Directorate. This introduction gives a brief overview of the year as context for the performance measures, and there is also some discussion under each measure in the report that follows.

    National Gallery of Art NATIONAL GALLERY OF ART ONLINE EDITIONS Italian Paintings of the Sixteenth Century Workshop of Titian Italian 15th/16th Century Titian Venetian, 1488/1490 - 1576 Allegory of Love c. 1520/1540 oil on canvas overall: 91.4 x 81.9 cm (36 x 32 1/4 in.) Samuel H. Kress Collection 1939.1.259 ENTRY Ever since 1815, when it was discovered by Count Leopoldo Cicognara in the attic of a palace in Ferrara, the picture has attracted controversy with regard both to its attribution and to its subject. [1] Cicognara, a renowned antiquarian and connoisseur, had been commissioned by the Duchess of Sagan to find works by Titian for her, and he was convinced that his discovery was autograph. His friend Stefano Ticozzi agreed, and went on to identify the figures as Alfonso d’Este, Duke of Ferrara, and his mistress (later wife), Laura Dianti, partly on the basis of the Ferrarese provenance, partly on a supposed resemblance of the male figure to known portraits of Alfonso, and partly on the report by Giorgio Vasari that Titian had painted a portrait of Laura. [2] With these credentials, Cicognara sold the picture (together with Titian’s Self-Portrait now in Berlin) to Lord Stewart, British ambassador to the imperial court in Vienna and lover of the Duchess of Sagan. But Stewart was advised by the Milanese dealer Gerli that both pictures were copies, and he accordingly had them sent to Rome to be appraised by the Accademia di San Luca. The academicians pronounced the Self-Portrait to be authentic, but because of the presence of retouching (“alcuni ritocchi”) on the other picture, they Allegory of Love 1 © National Gallery of Art, Washington National Gallery of Art NATIONAL GALLERY OF ART ONLINE EDITIONS Italian Paintings of the Sixteenth Century were unable to decide between Giorgione and Paris Bordone.

  • The 1852 National Gallery Acquisition of the Tribute Money by Titian
    Art sales and attributions: the 1852 National Gallery acquisition of The Tribute Money by Titian Barbara Pezzini Figure 1 Titian, The Tribute Money, about 1560-8 (perhaps begun in the 1540s) Oil on canvas, 112.2 x 103.2 cm. London: National Gallery. © The National Gallery The evidence presented in this paper aims to complicate one of the core assumptions of cause and effect in art history: that poor quality and uncertain autography of a work of art cause poor critical reception and a poor sale. In fact, the opposite also occurs: a poor sale may contribute to the critical demise of a work of certain autography and, arguably, quality. To demonstrate this, the paper examines how the commercial circumstances around the 1852 acquisition of Titian’s The Tribute Money by the National Gallery [Fig. 1] had a definite impact on its subsequent, and factious, attribution history. The Tribute Money was a controversial purchase that flared up the already heated public debate around the National Gallery’s administration and it contributed to the implementation of the 1853 Parliamentary inquiry, a ‘Select Committee’ that eventually brought to the re- constitution of the museum and the appointment of its former Keeper and Trustee, Charles Lock Eastlake (1793-1865), as its first director.1 Francis Haskell already I wish to thank Susanna Avery-Quash, Lukas Fuchsgruber, Alycen Mitchell and Marie Tavinor who have read earlier drafts of this text and provided many insightful suggestions. Special thanks to Francesco Ventrella, the peer reviewer for the Journal of Art Historiography, who has generously provided many perceptive comments on this text.
