In a new edition of my friend Mr. Cobham's work the idea has been to render it more convenient for reference and to bring the list as much up to date as possible. This Η new edition will include only such matter of a periodical kind as is usually bound up and preserved in the form of books, i.e. periodicals of a scientific description; proceedΚ­ ings of learned societies, belles-lettres, etc. The completeness of a bibliography must depend on circumstances. A catalogue which goes back to theΗ in­ vention of printing in the XVth century aud embraces all the known literary languages of the world, must present difficulties in attainment even to the most sanguinΘ e of compilers ; hence the late Mr. C. D. Cobham wisely entitled his work an attempt. Works of a merely ephemeral or newspaper kind may have crept into the bibliography of Mr. CobhamΟ, but the list should be confined as much as possible toΙ the more per­ manent literature which has developed in tho form of hooks. Amongst those who have assisted in Λcompiling this new edition of " Cobham's BibUography " must be mentioned His Excellency Sir Eonald Storrs, Mr. Luca Z. Pierides, Dr. A. H. Unwin, and the numerous authoritieΒ s of European libraries to whom the first proof sheetΙ s were submitted for criticism and additions. A certain difficulty arises in bringing so many contri­ butions in different languages Βto a general standard of expression. Some of them wer e sent me not only abbre­ viated to an extreme, but also mere names without any particulars at all. Consultation of ancient authorities is difficult in a place likeΗ Cyprus—it has therefore been thought best to treat the Bibliography as a catalogue without a very precise or detailed character so that the different titles may appeaΚ r with as much uniformity as circumstances permit. These considerations apply more especially to the extracts from periodical literature, the too voluminous descriptionΑ s of certain items have been to some extent curtaileΙ d in order to harmonise with the rest. Here it must be noted that " Folklore " is in a parti­ cular way excluded from this Bibliography. The very interesting collectioΡ n of poems by the village rhapsodists so characteristic of the Eomaic Levant ever since the use of printing, demand special study and a particular biblio­ graphy whicΠh will doubtless be given to them in course of time. Books for elementary education and matters connecteΥd with private commercial affairs, club rules, etc., are also, as a general rule, excluded. ΚMay, 1928. G.

  • Caterina Corner in Venetian History and Iconography Holly Hurlburt
    Early Modern Women: An Interdisciplinary Journal 2009, vol. 4 Body of Empire: Caterina Corner in Venetian History and Iconography Holly Hurlburt n 1578, a committee of government officials and monk and historian IGirolamo Bardi planned a program of redecoration for the Sala del Maggior Consiglio (Great Council Hall) and the adjoining Scrutinio, among the largest and most important rooms in the Venetian Doge’s Palace. Completed, the schema would recount Venetian history in terms of its international stature, its victories, and particularly its conquests; by the sixteenth century Venice had created a sizable maritime empire that stretched across the eastern Mediterranean, to which it added considerable holdings on the Italian mainland.1 Yet what many Venetians regarded as the jewel of its empire, the island of Cyprus, was calamitously lost to the Ottoman Turks in 1571, three years before the first of two fires that would necessitate the redecoration of these civic spaces.2 Anxiety about such a loss, fear of future threats, concern for Venice’s place in evolving geopolitics, and nostalgia for the past prompted the creation of this triumphant pro- gram, which featured thirty-five historical scenes on the walls surmounted by a chronological series of ducal portraits. Complementing these were twenty-one large narratives on the ceiling, flanked by smaller depictions of the city’s feats spanning the previous seven hundred years. The program culminated in the Maggior Consiglio, with Tintoretto’s massive Paradise on one wall and, on the ceiling, three depictions of allegorical Venice in triumph by Tintoretto, Veronese, and Palma il Giovane. These rooms, a center of republican authority, became a showcase for the skills of these and other artists, whose history paintings in particular underscore the deeds of men: clothed, in armor, partially nude, frontal and foreshortened, 61 62 EMWJ 2009, vol.

Even though the Latin monuments of the island have been thoroughly researched, there are only sporadic works that deal with the Orthodox ecclesiastical architecture of the period. The doctoral thesis of the author in waiting to be published is the only complete work on the subject. The methodology used, involved bibliographic research and to a large degree field research to establish the measurements of all the monuments. Cyprus during the late 15th to late 16th century was under Venetian rule but the government was more interested in establishing a defensive strategy against the threat of the Ottoman Empire rather than building the fine renaissance architecture that was realized in Italy. However, small morphological details and typologies managed to infiltrate the local architecture. This was done through the import of ideas and designs by Venetian architects and engineers who travelled around the colonies or through the use of easily transferable drawings and manuals of architects such as Serlio and Palladio.

Clm. 10268. Michael Scotus. F. 1r. 1 ABSTRACT The Lusignan epoch in Cyprus produced a number of interesting and extraor- dinary individuals, of which king Hugh IV Lusignan particularly stood out. However, due to a lack of portraits left to us from that time, we have only a very vague concept of what those individuals’ appearances looked like. This work makes a unique attempt at reconstructing a portrait of king Hugh IV Lusignan based on a miniature found in a manuscript containing works of Michael Scotus, located in the Bavarian State Library.

  • Byzantine Frescoes from Lusignan Cyprus in Houston*
    Originalveröffentlichung in: Ikonotheka , 21 (2008) S. 21-32 IKONOTHEKA21,2008 Malgorzata Dqbrowska UNIVERSITY OF LODZ RICE UNIVERSITY, HOUSTON, TX Byzantine Frescoes from Lusignan Cyprus in Houston* But their eyes were holden that they should not know him. (Luke 24:16) If the Byzantine frescoes were still in Lysi, a small village on Cyprus, they would not attract so much attention, as there is nothing special about them. The whole island is full of churches with interesting interiors1. But when the frescoes from Lysi appeared in Houston, they became unique. They are said to be the only specimen of this kind in the Western hemisphere. Why are they here near the Mexican Gulf, which is known for the numerous oil rifts that are a source of wealth? There is a direct connection between the Byzantine paintings and the rifts. The art connoisseurs, Dominique and John de Menil, who owed their fortune to the oil business, saved the exquisite mas­ terpieces from Cyprus. Paradoxically enough, these frescoes are not so well known This article was written when I was a Visiting Professor at Rice University as a Fellow of the Kosciuszko Foundation. I am very grateful to Mrs. Susan de Menil for the exchange of views in a telephone conversation, and for the hospitality of the Menil Collection where I worked in the archives due to the kindness of Dr. Josef Hofestein, The Director of the Collection, and the two ladies: Ms. Geraldine Aramanda and Ms. Heather Kushnerick. I am particularly indebted to Heather, who was my discreet companion in January 2008, when I was bent over the boxes with the necessary materials.

  • Ungarn Jahrbuch
    Ágnes Fülemile, Budapest The Odalisque Changes in the Meaning and Reception of an Orientalising Fine Arts Theme in Europe and Hungary* As an ethnographer carrying out field work in Transylvania (Romania), I have often come across (Turkish-Arabic) Oriental themes on wall hangings in the so-called best room of village homes, surprisingly even in areas – such as the villages of Kalotaszeg or Szék (Sic) in the Mezőség region (Transylvania Heath) – that have preserved until recently many of the traditional features of their culture. Representations of ornate seraglios, gardens of paradise with peacocks, bathing odalisques, da ncing houris, and odalisques reclining on di- vans are equally popular in rural and urban Hungarian, Romanian and Gypsy homes. At the weekly local markets or at fairs throughout the countryside it is not difficult to get hold of first- or second-hand plush velvet hangings featur- ing the favourite themes of Turkish-Arabic Orientalism: Oriental beauties and Bedouin warriors on horseback, the world of harems and abductions, and lion and tiger hunting scenes. What are the roots of such depictions? What are the reasons for this continuing interest? Why are contemporary generations of former peasant communities with their own traditional culture still touched with curiosity about such themes? In what follows, I present the process of creating visual stereotypes, and the ideas that can be evoked by them, through the concrete example of an analysis of the Western European image of the Turks in the history of art and culture. I provide an overview of the history of the iconography of the Ori- ental woman, and, within it, that of the odalisque,1 a conventionally popular * Extended Version of Ágnes Fülemile: Az “odaliszk” – Egy orientalizáló képzőművészeti téma jelentésének és recepciójának változásai.

  • Cyprus and Venice in the Era of Caterina Cornaro (Venice, 16-18 Sep 10)
    Cyprus and Venice in the era of Caterina Cornaro (Venice, 16-18 Sep 10) Candida Barbara Syndikus 16-18 Sep 10) CIPRO E VENEZIA NELL'ETÀ DI CATERINA CORNARO CYPRUS AND VENICE IN THE ERA OF CATERINA CORNARO ZYPERN UND VENEDIG IM ZEITALTER VON CATERINA CORNARO Internationales Symposion anlässlich des 500. Todestages von Caterina Cornaro - Königin von Zypern Venedig, 16.-18. September 2010 Centro Tedesco di Studi Veneziani (Deutsches Studienzentrum in Venedig) Istituto Ellenico di Studi Bizantini e Postbizantini di Venezia Gallerie dell'Accademia Die Patrizierin Caterina Cornaro (1454-1510) nimmt in der Geschichte Venedigs und Zyperns eine Schlüsselposition ein. Nach dem Tode ihres Mannes, König Jacobs II. von Lusignan, im Jahre 1473 ist sie es, die über die Mittelmeerinsel regiert, bis 1489 die Republik Venedig die Macht übernimmt und sie zur Abdankung zwingt. Nach ihrer Rückkehr in die Heimat wird Caterina Cornaro mit Ländereien in der Mark Treviso entschädigt und damit taktisch vom Zentrum der Macht ferngehalten. Sie stirbt im Jahr 1510 in Venedig. Die Tagung unterstreicht die sowohl im Rahmen der venezianischen als auch der zyprischen Historie wichtige historische Rolle der letzten Königin Zyperns. Zur Diskussion stehen zentrale Themen der Geschichte und Kunstgeschichte, welche die engen Kontakte zwischen Venedig und Zypern in der Renaissancezeit berühren. Einen Themenschwerpunkt bildet die durch Caterinas erzwungenen Rücktritt erst mögliche Herrschaft Venedigs über die Insel. Wie zahlreiche eindrucksvolle Monumente auf Zypern sowie Schrift- und Bildzeugnisse belegen, ist die Regierungszeit der Venezianer eine äußerst lebendige Epoche gewesen, in der es zu einer Amalgamierung unterschiedlicher kultureller Strömungen kam. Ein weiterer Aspekt wird das Mäzenatentum sein, mit dem die Königin und ihre Entourage bildende Künstler und Literaten in Venedig und im Veneto förderten; dabei soll die politische und 1/5 ArtHist.net kulturelle Situation auf der Terraferma an der Epochenschwelle zum 16.

  • Domini Da Mar: Manifestations of the Aquapelagic Imaginary in Venetian
    DOMINI DA MAR Manifestations of the aquapelagic imaginary in Venetian symbolism and folklore [Received October 6th 2020; accepted January 26th 2021 – DOI: 10.21463/shima.101] Philip Hayward University of Technology, Sydney <[email protected]> ABSTRACT: The concept of the aquapelago, an assemblage of terrestrial and aquatic spaces generated by human activities, was first advanced in 2012 and has been subsequently developed with regard to what has been termed the ‘aquapelagic imaginary’ – the figures, symbols, myths and narratives generated by human engagement with such assemblages. Venice, a city premised on the integration of terrestrial and marine elements within an intermediate tidal lagoon, is a paradigmatic aquapelago and its artists have produced a substantial corpus of creative work reflecting various aspects of its Domini da Mar (maritime dominion). This article engages with one aspect of these engagements, the use of sirenas (mermaids), sea serpents, Neptune and associated motifs in visual and narrative culture from the Renaissance to the present. This subject is explored in a reverse chronological order. Commencing with a discussion of two striking contemporary sculptures, the article goes on to analyse modern renditions of Venetian folklore before moving back to explore a variety of Renaissance paintings and sculptures that feature mythic maritime motifs. Having followed this trajectory, the article shifts focus to examine the manner in which the prominence of the winged Lion of Saint Mark in Venetian iconography counteracts
