ABSTRACT This thesis examines a group of terracotta sculptures attributed to an artist known as the Master of the Unruly Children. The name of this artist was coined by Wilhelm von Bode, on the occasion of his first grouping seven works featuring animated infants in Berlin and London in 1890. Due to the distinctive characteristics of his work, this personality has become a mainstay of scholarship in Renaissance sculpture which has focused on identifying the anonymous artist, despite the physical evidence which suggests the involvement of several hands. Chapter One will examine the historiography in connoisseurship from the late nineteenth century to the present and will explore the idea of the scholarly “construction” of artistic identity and issues of value and innovation that are bound up with the attribution of these works.

ARTICLE ‘…con uno inbasamento et ornamento alto’: the rhetoric of the pedestal c. 1430-1550. Alison Wright School of Arts and Social Sciences, University College London When, in 1504, the Florentine painter Cosimo Rosselli gave his opinion on the best situation for Michelangelo’s colossal David, he suggested it be placed by the cathedral and raised up on a high pedestal (‘uno inbasamento et ornamento alto’).1 Rosselli imagined the marble statue dominating the corner of the entrance steps, just to the right of the façade. Sandro Botticelli lent his backing to Rosselli’s view with the argument that the sculpture would here be best visible to passers-by. Against both these painters, a goldsmith, Andrea Riccio - almost certainly a local Florentine and not the Paduan bronze sculptor - proposed a position in the courtyard of the town hall, the Palazzo della Signoria.2 Here, he claims, the sculpture would be better protected and passers-by would go to see it rather than, as he vividly puts it, ‘the figure should come and see us.’3 Differences of opinion expressed in this unusually well documented debate centred above all around questions of visibility, concern for the statue’s material preservation as well as the representational and ritual needs of the Florentine government.4 Tangentially, the debate also highlighted the crucial role of the pedestal and its physical and ritual situation in mediating the encounter with sculpture.

  • Passaporto Per Denaro E Bellezza Passport to Money and Beauty Passaporto Per Denaro E Bellezza
    PASSAPORTO PER DENARO E BELLEZZA PASSPORT TO MONEY AND BEAUTY PASSAPORTO PER DENARO E BELLEZZA Le banche rappresentano una parte talmente importante del mondo moderno che è impossibile immaginarlo senza di esse; tuttavia sono un’invenzione relativamente recente, nata dalla crescente mobilità e dal commercio sviluppatosi a partire dalla fne del XII secolo. Le grandi famiglie toscane di mercanti-banchieri – Bardi, Peruzzi e, molto più tardi i Medici – hanno lasciato durevoli testimonianze del proprio talento in campo fnanziario, non solo accumulando enormi fortune, ma traducendole in opere d’arte che sono divenute parte del patrimonio culturale mondiale. La più antica banca al mondo ancora operante – il Monte dei Paschi – fu fondata a Siena nel 1472, solo 25 anni prima dei “roghi delle vanità” del predicatore integralista Savonarola, per i quali i forentini consegnarono per essere bruciate le “cose vane” preziose come gioielli, specchi e opere d’arte possedute. Denaro e Bellezza. I banchieri, Botticelli e il rogo delle vanità non è una mostra su un singolo artista, sebbene si chiuda con molti dipinti di Botticelli e presti particolare attenzione all’infuenza esercitata su di lui da Savonarola. È qualcosa di anche più interessante: una mostra sulla nascita in Toscana del moderno sistema bancario. James M. Bradburne PASSPORT TO MONEY AND BEAUTY Banks are such an important part of the modern world that it is almost impossible to imagine the world without them. Nevertheless, banks are a relatively recent invention, born from increased mobility and growing European trade in the late 12th century. The great Tuscan banking families—the Bardi, the Peruzzi, and of course much later, the Medici—created lasting monuments to their fnancial ingenuity, not only by amassing vast fortunes, but by translating those fortunes into the works of art that have become a part of the world’s cultural heritage.

  • Sebastiano Del Piombo and His Collaboration with Michelangelo: Distance and Proximity to the Divine in Catholic Reformation Rome
    SEBASTIANO DEL PIOMBO AND HIS COLLABORATION WITH MICHELANGELO: DISTANCE AND PROXIMITY TO THE DIVINE IN CATHOLIC REFORMATION ROME by Marsha Libina A dissertation submitted to the Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland April, 2015 © 2015 Marsha Libina All Rights Reserved Abstract This dissertation is structured around seven paintings that mark decisive moments in Sebastiano del Piombo’s Roman career (1511-47) and his collaboration with Michelangelo. Scholarship on Sebastiano’s collaborative works with Michelangelo typically concentrates on the artists’ division of labor and explains the works as a reconciliation of Venetian colorito (coloring) and Tuscan disegno (design). Consequently, discourses of interregional rivalry, center and periphery, and the normativity of the Roman High Renaissance become the overriding terms in which Sebastiano’s work is discussed. What has been overlooked is Sebastiano’s own visual intelligence, his active rather than passive use of Michelangelo’s skills, and the novelty of his works, made in response to reform currents of the early sixteenth century. This study investigates the significance behind Sebastiano’s repeating, slowing down, and narrowing in on the figure of Christ in his Roman works. The dissertation begins by addressing Sebastiano’s use of Michelangelo’s drawings as catalysts for his own inventions, demonstrating his investment in collaboration and strategies of citation as tools for artistic image-making. Focusing on Sebastiano’s reinvention of his partner’s drawings, it then looks at the ways in which the artist engaged with the central debates of the Catholic Reformation – debates on the Church’s mediation of the divine, the role of the individual in the path to personal salvation, and the increasingly problematic distance between the layperson and God.

  • The Production Methods of Neri Di Bicci and the Prevalence of Cartoon Usage in Fifteenth-Century Florence
    The Production Methods of Neri di Bicci and the Prevalence of Cartoon Usage in Fifteenth-Century Florence Jennifer Adrienne Diorio A thesis submitted to the Graduate Program in the Department of Art in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada August 2013 Copyright © Jennifer Adrienne Diorio 2013 ABSTRACT Florentine artist Neri di Bicci (1418-1492) was one of the most prolific and financially successful artists of the fifteenth century. The hundreds of extant paintings from his workshop are a testament to his industry, which is further underlined by a close examination of the 798 entries he wrote between 1453 and 1475 in his account book, his Ricordanze. The purpose of this dissertation is to analyse the monetary and social history in Neri’s Ricordanze in order to provide a framework for an exploration of the way that paintings were constructed in Neri’s workshop, and a close examination of the evidence concerning collaboration between Neri and his contemporaries. This thesis determined that the repeated use of full-size paper patterns, known as cartoons, was a key aspect of Neri’s painting procedure. Cartoon usage was established by overlaying scaled images of paintings in Photoshop, which demonstrated that the outlines of many of Neri’s figures and architectural designs were identical. Analysing the price of Neri’s paintings also revealed trends which suggested that he used cartoons. Half of the 224 objects described in the Ricordanze cost 30 lire or less, and the average of the 40 paintings between two and four square meters was 151 lire, less than half the regional average for paintings of comparable size.

  • Renaissance to Regent Street: Harold Rathbone and the Della Robbia Pottery of Birkenhead
    RENAISSANCE TO REGENT STREET: HAROLD RATHBONE AND THE DELLA ROBBIA POTTERY OF BIRKENHEAD JULIET CARROLL A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Liverpool John Moores University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy APRIL 2017 1 Renaissance to Regent Street: Harold Rathbone and the Della Robbia Pottery of Birkenhead Abstract This thesis examines the ways in which the unique creativity brought to late Victorian applied art by the Della Robbia Pottery was a consequence of Harold Rathbone’s extended engagement with quattrocento ceramics. This was not only with the sculpture collections in the South Kensington Museum but through his experiences as he travelled in Italy. In the first sustained examination of the development of the Della Robbia Pottery within the wider histories of the Arts and Crafts Movement, the thesis makes an original contribution in three ways. Using new sources of primary documentation, I discuss the artistic response to Italianate style by Harold Rathbone and his mentors Ford Madox Brown and William Holman Hunt, and consider how this influenced the development of the Pottery. Rathbone’s own engagement with Italy not only led to his response to the work of the quattrocento sculptor Luca della Robbia but also to the archaic sgraffito styles of Lombardia in Northern Italy; I propose that Rathbone found a new source of inspiration for the sgraffito workshop at the Pottery. The thesis then identifies how the Della Robbia Pottery established a commercial presence in Regent Street and beyond, demonstrating how it became, for a short time, an outstanding expression of these Italianate styles within the British Arts and Crafts Movement.
