  • Hans Rottenhammer's Use of Networks in the Copper
    arts Article Intermediaries and the Market: Hans Rottenhammer’s Use of Networks in the Copper Painting Market Sophia Quach McCabe Department of History of Art and Architecture, University of California, Santa Barbara, Santa Barbara, CA 93106, USA; [email protected] Received: 1 February 2019; Accepted: 16 June 2019; Published: 24 June 2019 Abstract: In Willem van Haecht’s Gallery of Cornelis van der Geest, The Last Judgment by the German artist Hans Rottenhammer stands prominently in the foreground. Signed and dated 1598, it is one of many copper panel paintings Rottenhammer produced and sent north of the Alps during his decade-long sojourn in Venice. That the work was valued alongside those of Renaissance masters raises questions about Rottenhammer’s artistic status and how the painting reached Antwerp. This essay examines Rottenhammer’s international market as a function of his relationships with artist-friends and agents, especially those in Venice’s German merchant community. By employing digital visualization tools alongside the study of archival documents, the essay attends to the intermediary connections within a social network, and their effects on the art market. It argues for Rottenhammer’s use of—and negotiation with—intermediaries to establish an international career. Through digital platforms, such as ArcGIS and Palladio, the artist’s patronage group is shown to have shifted geographically, from multiple countries around 1600 to Germany and Antwerp after 1606, when he relocated to Augsburg. Yet, the same trusted friends and associates he had established in Italy continued to participate in Rottenhammer’s business of art. Keywords: Hans Rottenhammer; social network; intermediaries; mediation; digital humanities; digital art history; merchants; art market; copper painting; Jan Brueghel the Elder 1.

  • The Artistic Patronage of Albrecht V and the Creation of Catholic Identity in Sixteenth
    The Artistic Patronage of Albrecht V and the Creation of Catholic Identity in Sixteenth- Century Bavaria A dissertation presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Adam R. Gustafson June 2011 © 2011 Adam R. Gustafson All Rights Reserved 2 This dissertation titled The Artistic Patronage of Albrecht V and the Creation of Catholic Identity in Sixteenth- Century Bavaria by ADAM R. GUSTAFSON has been approved for the School of Interdisciplinary Arts and the College of Fine Arts _______________________________________________ Dora Wilson Professor of Music _______________________________________________ Charles A. McWeeny Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT GUSTAFSON, ADAM R., Ph.D., June 2011, Interdisciplinary Arts The Artistic Patronage of Albrecht V and the Creation of Catholic Identity in Sixteenth- Century Bavaria Director of Dissertation: Dora Wilson Drawing from a number of artistic media, this dissertation is an interdisciplinary approach for understanding how artworks created under the patronage of Albrecht V were used to shape Catholic identity in Bavaria during the establishment of confessional boundaries in late sixteenth-century Europe. This study presents a methodological framework for understanding early modern patronage in which the arts are necessarily viewed as interconnected, and patronage is understood as a complex and often contradictory process that involved all elements of society. First, this study examines the legacy of arts patronage that Albrecht V inherited from his Wittelsbach predecessors and developed during his reign, from 1550-1579. Albrecht V‟s patronage is then divided into three areas: northern princely humanism, traditional religion and sociological propaganda.

  • In Hans Jakob Fuggers's Service
    Chapter 3 In Hans Jakob Fuggers’s Service 3.1 Hans Jakob Fugger Strada’s first contacts with Hans Jakob Fugger, his chief patron for well over a decade, certainly took place before the middle of the 1540s. As suggested earlier, the possibility remains that Strada had already met this gifted scion of the most illustrious German banking dynasty, his exact contemporary, in Italy. Fugger [Fig. 3.1], born at Augsburg on 23 December 1516, was the eldest surviving son of Raymund Fugger and Catharina Thurzo von Bethlenfalva. He had already followed part of the studious curriculum which was de rigueur in his family even before arriving in Bologna: this included travel and study at foreign, rather than German universities.1 Hans Jakob, accompanied on his trip by his preceptor Christoph Hager, first studied in Bourges, where he heard the courses of Andrea Alciati, and then fol- lowed Alciati to Bologna [Fig. 1.12]. Doubtless partly because of the exceptional standing of his family—the gold of Hans Jakob’s great-uncle, Jakob ‘der Reiche’, had obtained the Empire for Charles v—but certainly also because of his per- sonal talents, Fugger met and befriended a host of people of particular political, ecclesiastical or cultural eminence—such as Viglius van Aytta van Zwichem, whom he met in Bourges and again in Bologna—or later would ascend to high civil or ecclesiastical rank. His friends included both Germans, such as the companion of his travels and studies, Georg Sigmund Seld, afterwards Reichs- vizekanzler, his compatriot Otto Truchsess von Waldburg, afterwards Cardinal and Prince-Bishop of Augsburg [Fig.

  • “A NEW WAY of BEING CHURCH” the Title Is from a Speech of Cardinal Blaise Cupich Quoted More Fully at the Conclusion
    “A NEW WAY of BEING CHURCH” The title is from a speech of Cardinal Blaise Cupich quoted more fully at the conclusion This presentation has three sections. 1. What I will call The Pius X Church – for reasons that will become obvious very shortly. This part is largely historical because I think it is useful to have a sense of where we have been and why we were that way. 2. Then I will move on to what I describe as The John XXIII Church – again for obvious reasons – and some of its characteristics as spelt out by the 2nd Vatican Council. 3. Finally, I’d like to make some suggestions for a way forward – which I hope you will find worthwhile and challenging. Born in 1944, my early experiences of Church were of an institution described by Pope Pius X, in his 1906 encyclical Vehementer Nos. This encyclical was addressed specifically to the Church in France because of the particular circumstances in that country. Before dealing with those particular circumstances, Pius lays down principles on which to base his subsequent reasoning. He describes the Church thus: “… essentially an unequal society, that is, a society comprising two categories of persons, the Pastors and the flock, those who occupy a rank in the different degrees of the hierarchy and the multitude of the faithful ” (par.8). For Pius, the underlying rationale is a legal concept – the Church as a perfect society: a self-sufficient or independent organisation which has all the necessary resources and conditions to achieve its overall goal, notwithstanding any imperfections or the sinfulness of individual members.

  • 073-Santa Maria Dell'anima
    (073/31) Santa Maria dell'Anima Santa Maria dell'Anima (Our Lady of the Souls) is a 16th Catholic church in central Rome dedicated to the Blessed Virgin as patroness of the souls of the departed in purgatory, located just west of the Piazza Navona and near the Santa Maria della Pace church. It was the church of the Holy Roman Empire and is now the church of the German and Austrian community in Rome. History: 14 th and 15 th century Santa Maria dell'Anima is one of the many medieval charity institutions built for pilgrims in Rome. The church found its origin in 1350, when Johannes (Jan) and Katharina Peters of Dordrecht bought three houses and turned it into a pilgrims hostel, at the occasion of the Jubilee of 1350. Jan Peters may have been a Dutch merchant or papal soldier. A marble group was discovered here, so they named the hostel "Beatae Mariae Animarum" ("Saint Mary of the Souls"). A copy of this group is on the tympanium over the main doorway. (5) (8) (b) The hostel was first mentioned in 1398 in a bull of Pope Boniface IX, and on May 21, 1406 Pope Innocent VII in his bull Piae Postulatio declared the hostel protected by the Holy See. In 1431 a full- sized church was built to replace the former small chapel, which was made possible because of a large legacy provided by the famous German mediaeval historian Diedrich of Niem. The new (073/31) church was consecrated by Pope Eugene IV in 1444. In the 15th century Santa Maria dell'Anima expanded to be a hostel for visitors from the entire Holy Roman Empire, though initially the occupants were primarily from the Low Countries and (from the middle 15th century) the Rhineland.

Inoue: Threefold bookkeeping by Matthaus Schwarz The Accounting Historians Journal Vol. 9, No. 1 Spring 1982 Kiyoshi Inoue SAITAMA UNIVERSITY ''THREEFOLD BOOKKEEPING" BY MATTHÄUS SCHWARZ Abstract: In 1518, when nothing but Paciolo's "Summa" had been printed in the world of bookkeeping, Matthäus Schwarz, who was a bookkeeper of the Fuggers, wrote a manuscript on bookkeeping known as "Threefold Bookkeeping." This manu- script showed an illustration of three kinds of bookkeeping methods, of which the first and second methods aroused the most interest and research in ways of com- parison with one another. This paper will attempt to show how the first and second methods are an integrated part of and incorporated into the third method of "Threefold Bookkeeping" system as a whole; and to exemplify the superiority that "bookkeeping in practice" has to "bookkeeping in text." Introduction The earliest text on bookkeeping, "Summa," was published in 1494 in Venice by Paciolo.

  • Luther and the Media
    LUTHER AND THE MEDIA Gary North On October 31, 1517, Martin Luther fired the initial shot of what has come to be known as the Protestant Reformation. Few social transformations can be dated this precisely. Military invasions that launch a major war can be dated. Revolutions and assassinations can be dated. But large-scale social turning points can only rarely be dated. The Protestant Reformation is the great exception in the history of the West. It is the most comprehensive social movement whose origin can be accurately dated to the day. Five centuries, in the little German town of Wittenberg, Luther sat at his desk. He had been thinking of this moment for weeks. He had organized his thoughts. He was ready to make his points, one by one. He began to write. He had no idea that what he was writing would radically change his life, and then change history. To the Most Reverend Father in Christ and Most Illustrious Lord, Albrecht of Magdeburg and Mainz, Archbishop and Primate of the Church, Margrave of Brandenburg, etc., his own lord and pastor in Christ, worthy of reverence and fear, and most gracious. Then he issued a personal challenge. His words did not allow any doubt about the importance of what he was about to say and do. This now-legendary master of confrontational rhetoric pulled no punches. Spare me, Most Reverend Father in Christ and Most Illustrious Prince, that I, the dregs of humanity, have so much boldness that I have dared to think of a letter to the height of your Sublimity.
