  • 3 LEONARDO Di Strinati Tancredi ING.Key
    THE WORKS OF ART IN THE AGE OF DIGITAL REPRODUCTION THE THEORETICAL BACKGROUND The Impossible Exhibitions project derives from an instance of cultural democracy that has its precursors in Paul Valéry, Walter Benjamin and André Malraux. The project is also born of the awareness that in the age of the digital reproducibility of the work of art, the concepts of safeguarding and (cultural and economic) evaluation of the artistic patrimony inevitably enter not only the work as itself, but also its reproduction: “For a hundred years here, as soon as the history of art has escaped specialists, it has been the history of what can be photographed” (André Malraux). When one artist's work is spread over various museums, churches and private collections in different continents, it becomes almost impossible to mount monograph exhibitions that give a significant overall vision of the great past artist's work. It is even harder to create great exhibitions due to the museum directors’ growing – and understandable – unwillingness to loan the works, as well as the exorbitant costs of insurance and special security measures, which are inevitable for works of incalculable value. Impossible Exhibitions start from these premises. Chicago, Loyola University Museum of Art, 2005 Naples, San Domenico Maggiore, 2013/2014 THE WORKS OF ART IN THE AGE OF DIGITAL REPRODUCTION THE PROJECT In a single exhibition space, Impossible Exhibitions present a painter's entire oeuvre in the form of very high definition reproductions, making use of digital technology permitting reproductions that fully correspond to the original works. Utmost detail resolution, the rigorously 1:1 format (Leonardo's Last Supper reproduction occupies around 45 square meters!), the correct print tone – certified by a renowned art scholar – make these reproductions extraordinarily close to the originals.

  • Meet the Masters February Program Grade 3 How Artists Portray Women
    Meet the Masters February Program Grade 3 How Artists Portray Women Mary Cassatt "The Child's Bath" Leonardo Da Vinci "Ginevra De' Bend" About the Artist: (See the following pages.) About the Artwork: "The Child's Bath" by Mary Cassatt was painted in 1893. This is one of Cassatt's most famous works, it is typical of her art due to it's emphasis on the figure and the common theme of woman and child. This was painted over one hundred years ago, when homes did not have running water and separate rooms for bathing. Unlike Renaissance painters who tried to create an illusion of reality and depth by using scientific perspective, Cassatt's composition tilt's toward us as if we were looking down from above. Our attention is drawn to the tenderness displayed between the woman and her child. The stripes of the woman's dress and the diamond patterns in the carpet provide an almost flat background on which the figures appear to be three dimensional. Both figures are totally absorbed in the bathing ritual. "Ginevra De' Benci" by Leonardo Da Vinci was painted around 1474. During the time of Leonardo it was customary for young women to have their portraits painted just before their weddings. This was probably Ginevra's wedding portrait as she was married in 1474 at the age of seventeen. In this portrait of Ginevra De' Benci the light floods her face and hair to reveal a glowing the tiny curls of her hair and the rounded shape of her face. The soft fabric of her clothing can be seen in the lower part of the painting.

  • Mona Lisa: a Comparative Evaluation of the Different Versions S
    ONA LISA: A COMPARATIVE EVALUATION OF THE MDIFFERENT VERSIONS AND THEIR COPIES Salvatore Lorusso* Dipartimento di Beni Culturali Alma Mater Studiorum Università di Bologna, Ravenna, Italy Andrea Natali Dipartimento di Beni Culturali Alma Mater Studiorum Università di Bologna, Ravenna, Italy Keywords: “Mona Lisa”, versions, copies 1. Introduction In a previous study [1], which included stylistic and diagnostic analyses, it was found that the oil painting on canvas “Mona Lisa with columns”, part of a private collection in a museum in St. Petersburg (Figure 1), is a copy of the “Mona Lisa” by Leonardo (Figure 2) dating to a period between 1590 and 1660. Noteworthy features include the good quality, readability and expressiveness emanating from the work, which presum- ably is of Nordic influence, specifically German-Flemish. Figure 1. Photograph in the visible of the painting “Mona Lisa with Columns”, St. Petersburg (oil on canvas 63.2 x 85.2 cm ) CONSERVATION SCIENCE IN CULTURAL HERITAGE * Corresponding author: [email protected] 57 Figure 2. The Louvre “Mona Lisa” More specifically, given the importance of the subject, which includes Leonardo’s well-known masterpiece, the conclusion that was reached in defining the above paint- ing a copy of the original, involved examining, from a methodological point of view, investigations carried out in 2004 on the Louvre “Mona Lisa” by the “Center for Re- search and Restoration of the Museums of France”, and published in “Au coeur de La Joconde – Léonard de Vinci Décodé”. This sequence of investigations – which were certainly not aimed at authentication – were examined together with those of the Na- tional Gallery in London, thus enabling comparisons to be made with other works by Leonardo [2-3].
