The Business Organisation of the Bourbon Factories
The Business Organization of the Bourbon Factories: Mastercraftsmen, Crafts, and Families in the Capodimonte Porcelain Works and the Royal Factory at San Leucio Silvana Musella Guida Without exaggerating what was known as the “heroic age” of the reign of Charles of Bourbon of which José Joaquim de Montealegre was the undisputed doyen, and without considering the controversial developments of manufacturing in Campania, I should like to look again at manufacturing under the Bourbons and to offer a new point of view. Not only evaluating its development in terms of the products themselves, I will consider the company's organization and production strategies, points that are often overlooked, but which alone can account for any innovative capacity and the willingness of the new government to produce broader-ranging results.1 The two case studies presented here—the porcelain factory at Capodimonte (1740-1759) and the textile factory in San Leucio (1789-1860)—though from different time periods and promoted by different governments, should be considered sequentially precisely because of their ability to impose systemic innovations.2 The arrival of the new sovereign in the company of José Joaquin de Montealegre, led to an activism which would have a lasting effect.3 The former was au fait with economic policy strategy and the driving force of a great period of economic modernization, and his repercussions on the political, diplomatic and commercial levels provide 1 For Montealegre, cf. Raffaele Ajello, “La Parabola settecentesca,” in Il Settecento, edited by Giovanni Pugliese Carratelli (Naples, 1994), 7-79. For a synthesis on Bourbon factories, cf.

I Palazzi Di Napoli E Dintorni – Parte Seconda
MARIO COLANGELO-Delegazione RAM di Benevento RICOSTRUZIONE DI UN PALAZZO NOBILIARE NAPOLETANO – II PARTE LE SCULTURE Per quanto riguarda l’apparato scultoreo dei singoli palazzi, le sculture dal XV al XVIII secolo non occupano in genere un ruolo preponderante all’interno delle varie dimore: l’esposizione delle stesse all’interno delle sale e delle gallerie non è diffusa o frequente, mentre sicuramente sono utilizzate in grande abbondanza come ornamento esterno, quale arricchimento di portali, terrazzi, nicchie aperte lungo i prospetti, balconi, cortili, giardini pensili, fontane, scale, ambulacri, corridoi, vestiboli e grotte manieristiche. Per quanto riguarda le sale vengono preferiti i bronzetti (sono giunti fino a noi, all’interno della Collezione Farnese e della Collezione De Ciccio, splendidi esemplari realizzati da Guglielmo Della Porta, Giambologna, Alessandro Vittoria e vari artisti del Cinquecento), mentre numerosi sono i marmi antichi. Questi ultimi vengono utilizzati come ornamenti dei giardini e dei cortili, ma talvolta sono inseriti anche nelle gallerie, quale simbolo del prestigio di chi li possiede. Maggiore attenzione è affidata all’apparato scultoreo delle cappelle private, provviste di sculture lignee e marmoree. Nelle dimore sono in attività i più grandi scultori operanti nel periodo di esecuzione dei vari palazzi: in epoca aragonese operano in città Francesco Laurana, Domenico Gagini, Antonio di Chellino, Paolo Romano, Andrea dell’Aquila, Isaia da Pisa, Paolo Taccone, Pietro da Milano, Pere Joan, Jacopo della Pila, Guido Mazzoni, Antonio e Bernardo Rossellino, Benedetto e Giuliano da Maiano, Tommaso e Giovan Tommaso Malvito, Pietro e Giovanni Alemanno e numerosi artisti della cerchia dei Della Robbia (di cui ci sono giunti alcuni esemplari in terracotta invetriata ospitati all’interno del Museo Gaetano Filangieri, della Collezione De Ciccio e del Museo Nazionale di San Martino, dove è esposto il tondo con il Busto virile laureato, proveniente dalla Villa di Poggioreale). -

He summons a masked character named Pulcinella to rescue a buffalo calf called Sarchiopone from the forsaken palace. Together, man and beast, embark on a long journey through a lost and beautiful Italy, searching for something which may no longer exist. Shot on expired 16mm stock, Lost and Beautiful is a ravishing work that (after The Mouth of the Wolf) presaged the arrival of an extraordinary new filmmaker.

PRESS RELEASE from the FRICK COLLECTION
ARCHIVED PRESS RELEASE from THE FRICK COLLECTION 1 EAST 70TH STREET • NEW YORK • NEW YORK 10021 • TELEPHONE (212) 288-0700 • FAX (212) 628-4417 PARMIGIANINO’S ANTEA: A BEAUTIFUL ARTIFICE January 29, 2008, through May1, 2008 Press Preview: Monday, January 28, 2008, 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. (Remarks at 10:15am) The Frick Collection, 1 East 70th Street, New York, NY 10021; RSVP: (212) 547-6844 This winter and spring Parmigianino’s hauntingly beautiful portrait of a young woman known as Antea (c.1531–34) will be on view in the United States for the first time in more than twenty years. Generously lent to The Frick Collection by the Museo di Capodimonte in Naples, this painting is one of the most important portraits of the Italian Renaissance. Like Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, Parmigianino’s Antea is a consummate example of a portrait with compelling psychological presence. The sitter’s penetrating gaze and naturalistic presentation suggest that we may be encountering a real person, yet the identity of this young woman is unknown. Many questions about the painting remain unanswered. Of these, the most persistent concerns the sitter’s identity. One of the earliest mentions of the painting, dating from the late seventeenth century, claims she is Antea, a famous Roman courtesan, and Parmigianino’s mistress; other theories suggest she is the daughter or servant Parmigianino (1503–1540), Antea, c.1531–34, oil on canvas, of the artist, a noble bride, or a member of an aristocratic family. Still others 136 x 86 cm, Museo di Capodimonte, Naples have suggested that the painting is an example of an “ideal beauty,” a popular genre of Renaissance female portraiture in which the beauty and virtue of the sitter were of paramount importance, rather than her identity. -
