  • The Taking of Christ: Caravaggio As the Lantern-Bearer
    The Taking of Christ: Caravaggio as the Lantern-Bearer Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, The Taking of Christ, 1602, Oil on canvas. 133.5 x 169.5cm, National Gallery of Ireland, Dublin. author: alyssa cayetano The Taking of Christ (1602) is an oil painting on canvas by Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, which currently resides in the National Gallery of Ireland.1 The painting was a private commission from one of Caravaggio’s lead patrons, Ciriaco Mattei, and depicts the greeting of Christ by Judas as the soldiers arrive to arrest him for his crucifixion.2 On the right side of the painting, standing among the soldiers, is a man holding a lantern. This lantern-bearer has been identified as a self-portrait of Caravaggio.3 The inclusion of a self-portrait in a biblical painting, and particularly the nature of this self-portrait in relation to dress, gesture, expression, composition, and lighting, is extremely curious. Regarding Caravaggio’s self-portraiture, Michael Fried states that “the ‘presence’ of the artist within the depicted scene is the outcome of forces far more complex and conflictual than a desire for self-representation.”4 Thus, the inclusion of Caravaggio’s own likeness is more than a mere novelty. Prior depictions of Caravaggio in his violent biblical scenes, in combination with historical documents such as police and death records, point to his self-portraiture as an expression of his spiritual distance. In this essay, I will be discussing the significance of Caravaggio’s self-portrait as the lantern-bearer in The Taking of Christ, particularly with respect to his relationship with religion.

  • Department of Art History Annual Newsletter
    DEPARTMENT OF ART HISTORY ANNUAL NEWSLETTER FEBRUARY 2019 Cover image: Roy Lichtenstein Sandwich and Soda, 1964 Screenprint Permanent Collection, Zimmerli Art Museum Rutgers University–New Brunswick Before he became celebrated as a Pop Art painter, printmaker, and sculptor, Roy Lichtenstein taught art and design from 1960 to 1962 at Douglass College, (at the time, the women’s college at Rutgers). After his first solo exhibition at New York’s Leo Castelli Gallery in 1962, Lichtenstein gave up teaching to concentrate on creating art. Screenprinted in patriotic red and blue on a clear plastic sheet (which permits the white backing to show through), Sandwich and Soda features an ordinary American lunch. In this print, Lichtenstein used the stylistic elements of flat, stenciled signage and generic advertising design. This work is now regarded a landmark of early Pop Art printmaking. It was Lichtenstein’s innovative prints, exemplified by Sandwich and Soda, that helped to promote the fusion of high and low art forms to an international audience of art viewers and collectors. Marilyn Symmes, Director of the Morse Research Center for Graphic Arts and Curator of Prints and Drawings, Zimmerli Art Museum CONTENTS 1 CHAIR’S UPDATE 3 INTRODUCING AMBER WILEY 4 FACULTY NEWS 8 CHAPS NEWS 9 GRADUATE STUDENT NEWS 13 ALUMNI NEWS We in the Art History Department spend the better part of each day contemplating the aesthetic past.

  • Girolamo Muziano, Scipione Pulzone, and the First Generation of Jesuit Art
    journal of jesuit studies 6 (2019) 196-212 brill.com/jjs Girolamo Muziano, Scipione Pulzone, and the First Generation of Jesuit Art John Marciari The Morgan Library & Museum, New York [email protected] Abstract While Bernini and other artists of his generation would be responsible for much of the decoration at the Chiesa del Gesù and other Jesuit churches, there was more than half a century of art commissioned by the Jesuits before Bernini came to the attention of the order. Many of the early works painted in the 1580s and 90s are no longer in the church, and some do not even survive; even a major monument like Girolamo Muzia- no’s Circumcision, the original high altarpiece, is neglected in scholarship on Jesuit art. This paper turns to the early altarpieces painted for the Gesù by Muziano and Scipione Pulzone, to discuss the pictorial and intellectual concerns that seem to have guided the painters, and also to some extent to speculate on why their works are no longer at the Gesù, and why these artists are so unfamiliar today. Keywords Jesuit art – Il Gesù – Girolamo Muziano – Scipione Pulzone – Federico Zuccaro – Counter-Reformation – Gianlorenzo Bernini Visitors to the Chiesa del Gesù in Rome, or to the recent exhibition of Jesuit art at Fairfield University,1 might naturally be led to conclude that Gianlorenzo 1 Linda Wolk-Simon, ed., The Holy Name: Art of the Gesù; Bernini and His Age, Exh. cat., Fair- field University Art Museum, Early Modern Catholicism and the Visual Arts 17 (Philadelphia: Saint Joseph’s University Press, 2018).
