Art History 636: Titian Syllabus Fall 2017 Prof Art History 636: Titian Syllabus Fall 2017 Prof. Benjamin Paul Office: Art History Dept., 60 College Ave, Room 101 A Office Hours: Wednesday, 2:45-3:45 pm and by appointment Tel.: 732-9320122, ext. 21 Email: [email protected] Course description: Titian is the central figure in sixteenth-century Venetian art. In his long career he redefined virtually every aspect of Venetian painting including history painting, portraiture, the altarpiece, and ducal votive paintings. Together with Giorgione, he also invented the pastoral and introduced a new, much more open brushwork. This seminar will consider all these aspects within their historical context, discuss Titian’s style in relation to contemporary art theory, and investigate his self-fashioning as the Republic’s “Prince of Painters.” Requirements will include the weakly preparation of three questions concerning the readings, an oral report on specified readings and the object of the student’s research, as well as a written research paper (12 pages in double space).

  • A Second Miracle at Cana: Recent Musical Discoveries in Veronese's Wedding Feast
    BASSANO 11 A SECOND MIRACLE AT CANA: RECENT MUSICAL DISCOVERIES IN VERONESE'S WEDDING FEAST Peter Bossano 1.And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: 2. And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage. 3. And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine. 4. Jesus saith unto her, Woman what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come. 5. His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it. 6. And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece. 7. Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim. 8. And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it. 9. When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, 10.And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worst; but thou hast kept the good wine until now. —John 2: 1-10 (KingJames Version) In Paolo Veronese's painting of the Wedding Feast at Cana, as in St. John's version of this story, not everything is as at seems.

  • Ave Maris Stella” (1610)
    “In the Flesh as Well as in Spirit”1: (Meta) Physical Embodiment in Monteverdi’s setting of “Ave Maris Stella” (1610) Gordon Haramaki San José State University In 1610 Monteverdi published his setting of the plainchant hymn, “Ave maris stella” as part of his massive Vespro della Beata Vergine. Based on the thirteenth-century hymn used for vespers on the feast days of the Virgin Mary and of other female saints, the words are in seven litany-like verses that open with praise for the Virgin Mary, implore for intercession in the central verses, and end with a doxological commendation of the Trinity (ex. 1 and 2). Example 1. Monteverdi’s version of the plainchant “Ave maris stella” Example 2.

  • Rethinking Savoldo's Magdalenes
    Rethinking Savoldo’s Magdalenes: A “Muddle of the Maries”?1 Charlotte Nichols The luminously veiled women in Giovanni Gerolamo Savoldo’s four Magdalene paintings—one of which resides at the Getty Museum—have consistently been identified by scholars as Mary Magdalene near Christ’s tomb on Easter morning. Yet these physically and emotionally self- contained figures are atypical representations of her in the early Cinquecento, when she is most often seen either as an exuberant observer of the Resurrection in scenes of the Noli me tangere or as a worldly penitent in half-length. A reconsideration of the pictures in connection with myriad early Christian, Byzantine, and Italian accounts of the Passion and devotional imagery suggests that Savoldo responded in an inventive way to a millennium-old discussion about the roles of the Virgin Mary and Mary Magdalene as the first witnesses of the risen Christ. The design, color, and positioning of the veil, which dominates the painted surface of the respective Magdalenes, encode layers of meaning explicated by textual and visual comparison; taken together they allow an alternate Marian interpretation of the presumed Magdalene figure’s biblical identity. At the expense of iconic clarity, the painter whom Giorgio Vasari described as “capriccioso e sofistico” appears to have created a multivalent image precisely in order to communicate the conflicting accounts in sacred and hagiographic texts, as well as the intellectual appeal of deliberately ambiguous, at times aporetic subject matter to northern Italian patrons in the sixteenth century.2 The Magdalenes: description, provenance, and subject The format of Savoldo’s Magdalenes is arresting, dominated by a silken waterfall of fabric that communicates both protective enclosure and luxuriant tactility (Figs.

  • Boschini E Il Restauro, Fra Tutela E Mercato
    Fig. 91. Giorgione, Pala di Castelfranco, radiografia. 306 Boschini e il restauro, fra tutela e mercato Monica Molteni Un bel zardin no’ valerave niente, Se no ghe fusse un zardinier perfeto, Che dale ortiche el mantegnisse neto: El saria un bosco in breve certamente. Che cosa valerave un Arsenal Pien de armadure de molto valor, Se qualcun no netasse con amor El ruzene nemigo a quel metal? Ma meglio: che remedio, e che partio Sarave per drezzar chi havesse smosso De liogo, o roto per desgracia, un osso, Senza el Barbier de San Bartolamio?1 Ai fini della messa a fuoco del punto di vista di Boschini sul tema del restauro il passo della Carta (1660) citato è indubbiamente altamente esemplare, poiché l’elenco di beni – compreso lo stesso corpo umano – la cui buona conservazione dipende dalla costante erogazione di cure amorevoli e professionali qui sciorinato è sostanzialmente finalizzato a rafforzare il concetto espresso nella quartina precedente, e cioè che in una città come Venezia, «dove gh’è milioni de Piture», se non vi fossero «degne cure. / La sarave una pena manifesta»2. Nella lapidarietà di siffatta affermazione traspare in filigra- na uno dei motivi fondamentali sottesi all’intero poema, ovvero l’orgogliosa coscien- za dell’esistenza di un capitale artistico rappresentato dalla grande pittura del passato, particolarmente cinquecentesca, che è al contempo ricchissimo e fragilissimo, e ha un valore inestimabile in quanto elemento fondante dell’identità culturale veneziana: la cui tutela è dunque un atto materiale dovuto, necessitato dal senso di responsabilità morale che il possesso consapevole di un bene di pregio incorpora.

Samuel H. Kress Collection 1957.14.6 ENTRY The picture originally formed the central element of the ceiling decoration in the so-called Albergo Nuovo of the Scuola di San Giovanni Evangelista in Venice. Set within an elaborately carved and gilded wooden framework, [1] it was surrounded by 20 much smaller panels (now in the Gallerie dell’Accademia, except for one that is lost), variously representing the symbols of the Four Evangelists, with putti or reclining nudes [fig. 1]; winged putto heads; and masks of females and satyrs. The ensemble is recorded in situ, as the work of Titian, by all the main Venetian sources of the 17th and 18th centuries, beginning with Francesco Sansovino in 1581. [2] The ceiling was demolished and the framework destroyed after the suppression of the confraternity in 1806, when the paintings were confiscated by the state, and in 1812 all 21 were consigned to the Accademia. The Venetian superintendent of paintings, Pietro Edwards, then decided not to retain the Saint John on Patmos for the Accademia galleries, judging that it was “a very lively composition, of which no more than a miserable trace has survived, having first been ruined, and then shamefully repainted.” [3] He considered the options of sending it to the Brera Saint John the Evangelist on Patmos 1 © National Gallery of Art, Washington National Gallery of Art NATIONAL GALLERY OF ART ONLINE EDITIONS Italian Paintings of the Sixteenth Century Gallery in Milan or of installing it on the ceiling of the Sala della Bussola in the Doge’s Palace, before ceding it in 1818 to the dealer Barbini in Turin as part of an exchange.
