  • The Column Figures on the West Portal of Rochester Cathedral

    The Column Figures on the West Portal of Rochester Cathedral

    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society A QUESTION OF IDENTITY? THE COLUMN FIGURES ON THE WEST PORTAL OF ROCHESTER CATHEDRAL S. BLISS In the summer of 1991, the Romanesque west front of Rochester Cathedral (Plate I) underwent thorough cleaning and conservation.' This event draws attention, once again, to the significance of the façade and its sculptural enrichment within the development of English Romanesque art. The west portal (Plate II) is an important monument of this period and occupies a place of special significance in understanding some of the links between the theological, cultural and artistic concerns of the day. It would appear that both the patrons and sculptors of the west portal were highly aware of contemporary Continental precedents and this is made clear by an examination of the column figures incorporated into the jambs (Plates III and IV). They instigated work, which in its theological and aesthetic programme, was unusually rare in England and, perhaps more importantly, saw fit to adapt their subject-matter to express a number of concerns both spiritual and temporal. The figures' identities have been the subject of some debate and, though contemporary scholarship identifies them as King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba, it is the intention of this short paper to review their formal uniqueness within the English Romanesque, the debates surrounding their attribution and to provide a possible reading of their meaning within the context of the Rochester portal. Before describing and discussing the figures in detail, it will be useful to consider their physical context within the design of the cathedral's west front.

Florence’s beautiful Gothic cathedral, named Santa Maria del Fiore (Saint Mary of the Flower) can hold 20.000 people. Its exterior is made of green, pink, and white marble. Brunelleschi's Dome, La Cupola, is a masterpiece. You can climb the 463 steps to its top. The Baptistery is one of Florence's oldest buildings. It is made of green and white marble and has three sets of amazing bronze doors, one of them is so beautiful that Florentine people named it The Door of Paradise. The bell tower, known as the Campanile di Giotto, was designed by the famous artist Giotto. 2. Piazza della Signoria and Palazzo della Signoria Piazza della Signoria, Signorìa Square, is the heart of the historic center. It has been Florence's political center since the middle ages and Florence's town hall, the beautiful medieval Signoria Palace, sits on the piazza. 3. The Uffizi Loggia and the Uffizi Gallery This is one of the most famous museums of paintings and sculpture in the world. Its collection includes several universally acclaimed masterpieces of all time, including works by Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Raffaello, Botticelli, Giotto, Simone Martini, Piero della Francesca, Frà Angelico, Filippo Lippi, Mantegna, Correggio, and Caravaggio. German, Dutch and Flemish masters are also well represented with important works by Dürer, Rembrandt and Rubens. The Uffizzi Loggia can be visited anytime even when the gallery is closed. 4. Ponte Vecchio The Ponte Vecchio, the old bridge, was Florence's first bridge across the Arno River and is the only surviving bridge from Florence's medieval days as the others were destroyed in World War II.

    Local Romanesque Architecture in Germany and Its Fifteenth-Century Reinterpretation

    Originalveröffentlichung in: Enenkel, Karl A. E. ; Ottenheym, Konrad A. (Hrsgg.): The quest for an appropriate past in literature, art and architecture, Leiden 2019, S. 511-585 (Intersections ; 60) chapter 19 Translating the Past: Local Romanesque Architecture in Germany and Its Fifteenth-Century Reinterpretation Stephan Hoppe The early history of northern Renaissance architecture has long been pre- sented as being the inexorable occurrence of an almost viral dissemination of Italian Renaissance forms and motifs.1 For the last two decades, however, the interconnected and parallel histories of enfolding Renaissance humanism have produced new analytical models of reciprocal exchange and of an ac- tively creative reception of knowledge, ideas, and texts yet to be adopted more widely by art historical research.2 In what follows, the focus will be on a particular part of the history of early German Renaissance architecture, i.e. on the new engagement with the historical – and by then long out-of-date – world of Romanesque architectural style and its possible connections to emerging Renaissance historiography 1 Cf.
