Gothic Cathedras from the middle ages The Renaissance • French for “re-birth” • By the beginning of the 15th century (1400’s), people began to rediscover the world around them and realize that they were an important part of the world • This led to an interest in the “here and now” as opposed to strictly the afterlife, hence a re-awakening • The Renaissance is characterized by a philosophical movement called “Humanism” in which man was considered to be “a measure of all things” (taking the focus away from God) Renissance Cathedral: St. Paul’s Renissance Cathedral: painting by De Lorme Renissance Cathedral: Tuscany The Last Supper • Has been interpreted and painted in many ways over the centuries • Both the prevailing ideologies/moods of the times and the medium/media chosen (or available) to painters over the centuries has greatly influenced the paintings they have created • “In the Christian Gospels, the Last Supper was the last meal Jesus shared with his Twelve Apostles and disciples before his death.

“Sacrum Convivium”. Formas E Conteúdos Da Ceia Do Rei De Portugal Na Idade Moderna a Partir Das Figurações Icónicas
De Arte, 4, 2005, pp. 89-120 “Sacrum convivium”. Formas e conteúdos da ceia do rei de Portugal na Idade Moderna a partir das figurações icónicas Marco Daniel Duarte RESUMO. Os reis da Idade Moderna portuguesa, como os monarcas da restante Europa, tinham plena consciência da importância da alimentação e do simbolismo que, desde os tempos mais antigos da humanidade, a alimentação condensava através dos seus ritos. Faziam, assim, do acto de comer um cerimonial através do qual demonstravam o seu poder: ante os maiores do seu povo, o rei mostrava-se alimentador do seu reino e, também, alimentado pelo seu reino. Os vários ritos estavam de tal sorte associados ao ritual eucarístico que, inclusivamente, se poderá falar de um verdadeiro “sacrum convivium”. De entre as várias fontes que concorrem para esta percepção, têm um lugar primordial as fontes iconográficas (ceias, representação de festas, naturezas-mortas…), pois condensam em si, mais do que uma reprodução à maneira de reportagem, os valores que, na Idade Moderna, gravitavam em torno da sacralidade dos alimentos. Palabras‐chave: ceia, iconografia da alimentação, banquete, ritual, liturgia régia, eucaristia, natureza-morta, comida pública do rei, Última Ceia. ABSTRACT. The kings of the Portuguese Modern Age, such as the monarchs of the rest of Europe, had plain conscience of the importance of food and of the symbolism that, since the most ancient times of humanity, food condensed through its rites. They did, thus, from the act of eating a ceremonial through which they would show their power: in the face of the greatest of his people, the king showed himself as the feeder of his realm and, also, as the one who was fed by his kingdom.

The Sensuous in the Counter-Reformation Church Edited by Marcia B
Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-01323-0 - The Sensuous in the Counter-Reformation Church Edited by Marcia B. Hall and Tracy E. Cooper Frontmatter More information THE SENSUOUS IN THE COUNTER-REFORMATION CHURCH This book examines the promotion of the sensuous as part of religious experience in the Roman Catholic Church of the early modern period. During the Counter-Reformation, every aspect of religious and devotional practice, including the role of art and architecture, was reviewed and the invocation of the fi ve senses to incite devotion became a hotly contested topic. Protestants condemned the material cult of veneration of relics and images, rejecting the importance of emotion and the senses and instead promoting the power of rea- son in receiving the Word of God. After much debate, the Church concluded that the senses are necessary to appreciate the sublime and that they derive from the Holy Spirit. As part of its attempt to win back the faithful, the Church embraced the sensuous and promoted the use of images, relics, liturgy, proces- sions, music, and theater as important parts of religious experience. Marcia B. Hall is The Carnell Professor of Renaissance Art History and Dir- ector of Graduate Studies at Tyler School of Art, Temple University. She is the author and editor of several books, including The Sacred Image in the Age of Art: Titian, Tintoretto, Barocci, El Greco, Caravaggio ; After Raphael ; and Renovation and Counter Reformation: Vasari and Duke Cosimo in Santa Maria Novella and Santa Croce, 1564–77 .

The Last Supper Seen Six Ways by Louis Inturrisi the New York Times, March 23, 1997
1 Andrea del Castagno’s Last Supper, in a former convent refectory that is now a museum. The Last Supper Seen Six Ways By Louis Inturrisi The New York Times, March 23, 1997 When I was 9 years old, I painted the Last Supper. I did it on the dining room table at our home in Connecticut on Saturday afternoon while my mother ironed clothes and hummed along with the Texaco. Metropolitan Operative radio broadcast. It took me three months to paint the Last Supper, but when I finished and hung it on my mother's bedroom wall, she assured me .it looked just like Leonardo da Vinci's painting. It was supposed to. You can't go very wrong with a paint-by-numbers picture, and even though I didn't always stay within the lines and sometimes got the colors wrong, the experience left me with a profound respect for Leonardo's achievement and a lingering attachment to the genre. So last year, when the Florence Tourist Bureau published a list of frescoes of the Last Supper that are open to the public, I was immediately on their track. I had seen several of them, but never in sequence. During the Middle Ages the ultima cena—the final supper Christ shared with His disciples before His arrest and crucifixion—was part of any fresco cycle that told His life story. But in the 15th century the Last Supper began to appear independently, especially in the refectories, or dining halls, of the convents and monasteries of the religious orders founded during the Middle Ages.
