Eisenhower Parkway PO Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract Painted topographical views of cities and their environs appear throughout the mid-sixteenth-century fresco decorations of the Palazzo Vecchio. This project focuses primarily on the most extensive series, those in the Quartiere di Leone X. Giorgio Vasari and his assistant Giovanni Stradano painted the five rooms of this apartment between 1556 and 1561. The city views take one of three forms in each painting: as a setting for a historical scene, as the background of an allegory, or as the subject of the view itself.

  • A Plan of 1545 for the Fortification of Kelso Abbey | 269
    Proc Soc Antiq Scot 141 (2011), 269–278 A PLAN OF 1545 FOR THE FORTIFICATION OF KELSO ABBEY | 269 A plan of 1545 for the fortification of Kelso Abbey Richard Fawcett* ABSTRACT It has long been known from surviving correspondence that the Italian gunfounder Archangelo Arcano prepared two drawings illustrating proposals for the fortification of Kelso Abbey, following its capture by the English army under the leadership of the Earl of Hertford in 1545. It had been assumed those drawings had been lost. However, one of them has now been identified and is here published, together with a brief discussion of what it can tell us about the abbey in the mid-16th century. The purpose of this contribution is to bring to in fact, represent that abbey (Atherton 1995– wider attention a pre-Reformation plan that 6), though there was then no basis for offering had for long been thought to represent Burton- an alternative identification. on-Trent Benedictine Abbey, but that has It was Nicholas Cooper who established recently been identified by Nicholas Cooper the connection between the drawing and as a proposal of 1545 for fortifying Kelso’s a hitherto presumed lost proposal for the Tironensian Abbey.

Jacquot, C. Chevrier, G. Halin MAP-Crai (UMR 3495 CNRSMCC), ENSA Nancy, 54000 Nancy, France (jacquot, chevrier, halin)@crai.archi.fr Commission V, WG V/4 KEY WORDS: architectural heritage, bastioned fortifications, parametric modelling, knowledge based, scale model, 3D surveys ABSTRACT: Parametric modelling approach applied to cultural heritage virtual representation is a field of research explored for years since it can address many limitations of digitising tools. For example, essential historical sources for fortification virtual reconstructions like plans-reliefs have several shortcomings when they are scanned. To overcome those problems, knowledge based-modelling can be used: knowledge models based on the analysis of theoretical literature of a specific domain such as bastioned fortification treatises can be the cornerstone of the creation of a parametric library of fortification components. Implemented in Grasshopper, these components are manually adjusted on the data available (i.e. 3D surveys of plans-reliefs or scanned maps). Most of the fortification area is now modelled and the question of accuracy assessment is raised. A specific method is used to evaluate the accuracy of the parametric components. The results of the assessment process will allow us to validate the parametric approach. The automation of the adjustment process can finally be planned. The virtual model of fortification is part of a larger project aimed at valorising and diffusing a very unique cultural heritage item: the collection of plans-reliefs.

  • Fort Frederica Historic Site Report
    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR NATIONAL PARK SERVICE FORT FREDERICA HISTORIC SITE REPORT by Albert C. Manucy Historical Technician P&S 2 Castillo de San Marcos National Monument With Special Reports by C. R. Vinten Coordinating Superintendent Southeastern National Monuments and J. C. Harrington Superintendent Colonial National Historical Park Saint Augustine 1945 2 Plate 1 – Fort Frederica National Monument Location Map FORT FREDERICA NATIONAL MONUMENT GEORGIA 3 INTRODUCTION This study includes more specialized information than is usually found in a historic site report. We have attempted to put what we now know about Frederica—as well as things we do not know—between two covers. In so doing, our idea is to make readily available certain data that will be useful in developmental planning of the site. This is not a purely historical study. Reports by administrator, archeologist and historian are included. The text therefore contains information on several specific problems. For the reader interested only in certain sections of the study, we recommend the following suggestions: 1) read the table of contents carefully. It is almost an index. 2) For an excellent and brief over-all picture of the area, see Coordinating Superintendent Ray Vinten’s summary of the present status of Frederica. 3) Archeologists are referred particularly to Dr. J. C. Harrington’s “Recommendations for Archeological Research”, which also include stabilization suggestions. 4) The “Historical Narrative” is the story of the area. 5) “Technical Description” provides detailed physical description for the closer student. It is easy to see in Frederica more than a few tabby ruins and a naturally beautiful site.

Elle fait actuellement l’objet d’une mise à jour qui la complétera. La mention "Version complète" figurera en lieu et place de cette note lorsque ces travaux seront achevés. 1 Propos liminaires de Paul Dubé (www.dutempsdescerisesauxfeuillesmortes.net) En prévision du centenaire de la mort de Paulus (1er juin 2008), nous avons entrepris depuis un an et demi déjà la publication, sur ce site, de ses «Mémoires» («Trente ans de Café-Concert») mais la publication non seulement du texte mais des photos qui y en faisaient partie en leur ajoutant d'autres photos susceptibles d'en rendre la lecture plus intéressante. À ce texte et à ces photos, nous avons entrepris l'ajout de notes (à l'intérieur même du texte) de même que des liens vers différentes fiches, la plupart biographiques, se rapportant aux personnes qui y sont mentionnés ou encore des informations, historiques, se rapportant aux lieux aux habitudes de l'époque et ainsi de suite, ouvrant ainsi la porte à la «petite histoire» du café-concert aux chercheurs et curieux qui pourront, à partir du tout, entreprendre des recherches plus poussées. À cet égard, nous ne saurions recommander, au préalable, la lecture du livre «Les Cafés-Concerts» d'André Chadourne (E. Dentu, 1889).

  • Description of Fort Frederica
    I. THE FORT 1. CONTEMPORARY DESCRIPTIONS OF THE FORT Early on the second day (February 19, 1736) of Frederica’s beginning, Oglethorpe and his men “traced out a Fort with 4 Bastions by cutting up the Turf from the Ground, dug enough of the Ditch & 141 raised enough of the Rampart for a Sample for the men to work upon.” The fort was “in the Front of the said Town, commanding the River both ways, where the Town Guard was kept, which was built large 142 enough upon Occasion to contain the Inhabitants of the said Town”, who numbered at least 116 souls 143 in the early days. Within little more than a month, this fort was defensible. The indication is that in its first form, the fortification was entirely of earth, without any palisade or other timberwork whatsoever. But as time went by and the essentials were taken care of, additional strength was added. From eyewitness and other descriptions, this fort appears to have been 141 Collections of the Georgia Historical Society (Savannah, 1840-1916), III, 15 (hereafter cited as Collections); see also Francis Moore, “Voyage to Georgia Begun in the Year 1735”, in Collections, I, 109. 142 Colonial Records of the State of Georgia (Atlanta, 1904-1916; and MS.
