(214 x 144 cm.) Provenance Commissioned by Pedro de Toledo Osorio, 5th Marquis of Villafranca del Bierzo (Naples, 6 September 1546 – 17 July 1627), and by direct decent until 2017. This present painting by Giulio Cesare Procaccini, one of the most important painters in seventeenth-century Lombardy, is a significant rediscovery and a major addition to his oeuvre. Amidst a sumptuous architectural background, the Virgin sits at the centre of the scene, tenderly holding Jesus in her arms. She offers the Child’s foot to the oldest of the Magi, so that he can kiss it. The kings attributes of power, the crown and sceptre, lay in the foreground on the right, with his entire attention turned to worshiping the baby. Simultaneously, he offers Jesus a precious golden urn. Next to Mary are several figures attending the event. On the right, a dark- skinned king leans towards the centre of the composition holding an urn with incense. On the opposite side, the third king holds a box containing myrrh and looks upwards to the sky.

GIOTTO and MODERN ART* N OT Long Ago I Was Led to the Statement
GIOTTO AND MODERN ART* OT long ago I was led to the statement that we could N not understand modern art unless we understood Giotto-a statement that implied that the modern art move- ments have their sources in him. As a matter of fact, when we speak of the sources of any art movement, we are not on too solid ground. It is evident that there are powerfuI under- lying forces which influence and shape art forms, but to lo- cate the source of any style in a specific person means only to recognize the artistic criteria of the moment-standards which are as varied and changeable as that much desired quality which we caIl Beauty. Not too many years ago contemporary painting boasted free and virile brush strokes. This direct painting, then con- sidered the height of modernism, was shown as the direct descendant of Frans Hals and Velasquez. The imitative art of the 19th and 20th centuries looked for its sources in the illusionism of the Italian Renaissance and saw Masaccio as the father of modern painting. Then as subjective expression gradually replaced objective imitation, El Greco was rediscovered as the forefather of modern painting. With so many paternal ancestors already claimed, let us not fall into the error of putting still another father of modern art in the roots of the family tree. *This lecture was illustrated by lantern slides. In an attempt to clarify the allu- sions, the title and author of each illustration are printed in a marginal note at the point in the text that the illustration was used.

'Inspired to Follow: Art and the Bible Story' Session 8: the Birth of Jesus
‘Inspired to Follow: Art and the Bible Story’ Session 8: The Birth of Jesus Text: Luke 1:26-38 Image: ‘Mystic Nativity’, Sandro Botticelli, 1500, NG1034 Reflection: I’ve always thought that Botticelli’s Mystic Nativity has such an amazing energy. It is certainly unconventional. It’s like the vision of a three-tier universe. At the top are the angels of God, with the sky opening up to reveal the kingdom of heaven. In the centre is the stable and the holy family with an ox and ass looking on inquisitively. At the bottom of the painting, as men and angels embrace, little devils scatter and flee into holes in the ground. The painting is not simply a representation of the Gospel accounts of the nativity. Rather it’s a glimpse of the kingdom of God, the story of a birth that seems to unite both heaven and earth. At the centre of this painting is a huge Christ child. He is at the centre of the dance – raising his head and right hand in blessing and his leg kicking out to touch the cloak of a truly massive Mary: if she stood up she would take the thatch off the roof! It’s as though Jesus is the centre of the dance. The vulnerable naked child gives life and joy to the whole universe. From his hand the dance spirals up through the vertical of the body of Mary into the circle of the dancing angels on the roof and then through the toes of the angels up into their wider circle lifting up in to the dome of heaven.

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.

AMANDA GRIEVE ART 3130 The Scientific Narrative of Leonardo’s Last Supper AMANDA GRIEVE ART 3130: Leonardo da Vinci, Fall 2017 Nominated by: Dr. Caroline Hillard Amanda Grieve is a senior at Wright State University and is pursuing a BFA with a focus on Studio Painting. She received her Associates degree in Visual Communications from Sinclair Community College in 2007. Amanda notes: I knew Leonardo was an incredible artist, but what became obvious after researching and learning more about the man himself, is that he was a great thinker and intellectual. I believe those aspects of his personality greatly influenced his art and, in large part, made his work revolutionary for his time. Dr. Hillard notes: This paper presents a clear and original thesis about Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper that incorporates important scholarly research and Leonardo’s own writings. The literature on Leonardo is extensive, yet the author has identified key studies and distilled their essential contributions with ease.

LOCATING El GRECO in LATE SIXTEENTH-CENTURY
View metadata, citation and similarbroughtCORE papers to you at by core.ac.uk provided by Online Repository of Birkbeck Institutional Theses LOCATING El GRECO IN LATE SIXTEENTH‐CENTURY ROME: ART and LEARNING, RIVALRY and PATRONAGE Ioanna Goniotaki Department of History of Art, School of Arts Birkbeck College, University of London Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, July 2017 -1- Signed declaration I declare that the work presented in the thesis is my own Ioanna Goniotaki -2- ABSTRACT Much has been written about the artistic output of Domenicos Theotocopoulos during his time in Spain, but few scholars have examined his works in Venice and even fewer have looked at the years he spent in Rome. This may be in part attributed to the lack of firm documentary evidence regarding his activities there and to the small corpus of works that survive from his Italian period, many of which are furthermore controversial. The present study focuses on Domenicos’ Roman years and questions the traditional notion that he was a spiritual painter who served the principles of the Counter Reformation. To support such a view I have looked critically at the Counter Reformation, which I consider more as an amalgam of diverse and competitive institutions and less as an austere movement that strangled the freedom of artistic expression. I contend, moreover, that Domenicos’ acquaintance with Cardinal Alessandro Farnese’s librarian, Fulvio Orsini, was seminal for the artist, not only because it brought him into closer contact with Rome’s most refined circles, but principally because it helped Domenicos to assume the persona of ‘pictor doctus’, the learned artist, following the example of another of Fulvio’s friends, Pirro Ligorio.

The Last Supper John 13:1-20 It Can Be Difficult for Modern Readers To
The Last Supper John 13:1-20 It can be difficult for modern readers to grasp the significance of Jesus’ act of washing his disciples’ feet before they shared the Passover meal. Our feet don’t need to be cleaned when we arrive at a friend’s home. Help kids by describing the dry, dirt roads people traveled on in sandals or barefoot. Invite kids to imagine how and when their own feet get dirty and need extra scrubbing. Beyond that, Jesus washed their feet to show his love for them. Encourage kids to enter into the story by thinking of big and small ways to show love to others by serving them. BEFORE HAND, TALK: Jesus was together with his friends to celebrate Passover. Passover was a holiday for Jewish people that is still celebrated today. The disciples and Jesus ate a special meal. At that meal, Jesus told his disciples to love each other. They shared bread and wine around the table. Today in churches we celebrate communion, or the Lord’s Supper, to remember Jesus’ Last Supper with his friends. Today’s story has three parts. It takes place on a special holiday called Passover. During Passover, Jewish people traveled to be with family and share a special meal together. This story is called The Last Supper because it’s the last time Jesus shares a meal with his friends before he is killed. He wants them to remember their time together. To help us remember the story and what Jesus tells his disciples, we’re going to act it out.
