It Italy, religious brothers are called “Fra.” Religious brothers are often given new names. Guido’s religious name was “Fra Giovanni” or Brother John. His work in his community was painting beautiful religious art, initially for manu- scripts which at the time were each copied by hand. The moment the members of his religious community saw his beautiful paintings, they said that he “painted like an angel.” That is how he be- came known as “Fra Angelico.” Every day before he began to paint, Fra Angelico prayed that God would guide his hand and help him to create a painting that would inspire people to grow closer to God. Fra Angelico became very famous. He painted ho- ly figures and angels and was even called to Rome to paint portraits of the saints on the walls of the chapel of Pope Eugenius IV and then Pope Nicholas V. His work can be found in museums and churches and holy buildings throughout the world. He died in Rome in 1455 and was beatified in 1982 by Pope John Paul II. The pope declared him the patron saint of Catholic artists in 1984. We call Fra Angelico “Blessed.” His life helps us to understand that we are called to use the gifts we have been given to serve others and to give glory and praise to God. hp://saintsresource.com/fraRangelico HOLY REDEEMER CHURCH KENSINGTON, MD Ash Wednesday/Lent Schedule February 14, 2021 MF Daily Mass 6:45 & 9:00 am & Saturday 8:30 am The Sixth Sunday of Ordinary Time Weekend Masses Saturday 5:30 pm Sunday’s 7:30, 9:30 & 11:30 am Today is World Marriage Day!

  • The Annunciation: Symbolic Functions of Space in Renaissance Depictions of the Annunciation
    1 The Annunciation: symbolic functions of space in Renaissance depictions of the Annunciation In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a town in Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin engaged to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. And he came to her and said, ‘Greetings, favoured one! The Lord is with you.’ But she was much perplexed by his words and pondered what sort of greeting this might be. The angel said to her, ‘Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favour with God. And now, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you will name him Jesus’ (Luke 1.26-31). The Annunciation is, together with the Crucifixion and the Resurrection, the most commonly depicted Biblical event of the Renaissance. Of these three events the Annunciation is interesting in terms of the space it depicts. The fundamental message of Christianity is the meeting of the divine and the human in the figure of Christ, the God-man. This meeting is prefigured by the Annunciation, where the divine (Gabriel) and the human (Mary) come together in a shared space. The Annunciation contains the Christian message within it like a seed, as indeed it is. To be born of flesh entails that Christ must suffer and eventually die; therefore this moment contains within it all that Christ means in terms of man’s redemption. The Annunciation provides the opportunity for the religious artist to investigate these ideas through the structural workings of the confinements of Mary’s dwelling.

At a time when most of his peers were focusing on England, Germany, France, Russia and the United States, largely with a view to competing in global political and philosophical debates and the international marketplace, Anesaki unusually chooses to visit Italy, a country rarely mentioned as a cultural influence on late 19th-century and early 20th-century Japan beyond the tenuous parallel of Meiji modernization to that of Count Camillo Benso di Cavour‘s Italy.

  • Fra Angelico
    FRA ANGELICO CALLISTUS M. A NDRES, O.P. HERE are those who have written of the spiritual life of Fra Angelico, and they have accomplished their purpose II exceedingly well. Others have, in a general way, pre­ sented his simple life, with his rare achievements in the art of painting. It is the chief concern in this article to place in relief a few of his treasured masterpieces, and principally those for which the Dominican Convent of St. Mark's in Flor­ ence is renowned. T he Dominican prerogative of actively preaching the truths of the Gospel was not lost by those who spoke by means of artistic achievements ; for Blessed Jordan of Rival to very suc­ cintly said that "art is the quasi-daughter of preaching." It is not surprising then, to find Dominicans of the fifteenth century acting as lodestars drawing art back to its exalted position. These friar artist s preached by means o f canvas and pigments, and by drawing from marble the beauty o f religious truth and the happiness of heaven, led men back to God. Art, before the advent of the Friars, had been relegated to an inferior position. By the E gyptians, it was made to inspire fear ; the Greeks used it to satiate their r efi ned voluptuousness; t he Romans made of it a medium for glory and in the Byzantine pictures there was a leaning towards severe majesty, producing a profound veneration, but inspiring fear. Christianity elevated· it from the mere beauty of outward form to t hat sweeter and more eloquent majesty radiat ing from the innermost court of the soul.

Tempera on panel, 61.8 x 38.3 cm (24 5/16 x 15 1/16 in.) Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Boston (P15w34) DROPBOX LINK TO HIGH RES IMAGES: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/5mj3ncitm1hcw6s/AAB737U7-D__Fo6I- zHptAVpa?dl=0 BOSTON, MA (February 2018) – The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum will be the sole venue for Fra Angelico: Heaven on Earth, opening Feb. 22 through May 20, 2018. The exhibition will explore renowned Renaissance painter Fra Angelico’s talent for storytelling. For the first time ever, the four newly restored reliquaries – containers for holy relics that were painted for the church of Santa Maria Novella in Florence between 1424 and 1434 - will be reunited at the Gardner. Together they picture the life of the Virgin Mary and offer the opportunity to explore his talent for sacred tales. Fra Angelico (about 1400-1455) was celebrated in his own time as the most famous painter in Italy. With remarkable ingenuity and rare technical expertise, he reconceived popular compositions and infused familiar Christian stories with new meaning. His iconic altarpieces and frescoes – painted for two Popes, members of the Medici family of Florence, and the city’s merchant elite – transformed Western art. They secured his place in history and forged the future of painting in Italy Born near Florence, Fra Angelico trained in the workshop of the highly accomplished painter Lorenzo Monaco, collaborating with him on small narrative panels and manuscripts.

By tracing the development of this motif from its inception to its dispersal in selected Tuscan panel paintings of the late-1300’s, this paper seeks to prove that Bartolommeo Bulgarini was significant to its formation. In addition this paper will examine the use of punch mark decorations in the works of artists associated with Bulgarini in order to demonstrate that the painter was influential in the dissemination of the motif and the subsequent tradition of its depiction. This research is instrumental in recovering the importance of Bartolommeo Bulgarini in Sienese art history, as well as in establishing further proof of the existence of the hypothesized Sienese “Post-1350” Compagnia, a group of Sienese artists who are thought to have banded together after the bubonic plague of c.1348-50.

  • Picturing the Poor in Renaissance Italy Megan Cheng Director
    ABSTRACT Portraits of Compassion: Picturing the Poor in Renaissance Italy Megan Cheng Director: Alden Smith, Ph.D. At the beginning of the Renaissance, social policy towards the poor was geared only to help Christ’s poor: the orphaned, widowed, and disabled. The working poor received little, if any, assistance, and “false beggars,” or those who were able-bodied but thought to be too lazy to work, faced stiff penalties such as imprisonment and flogging. By the end of the Renaissance, however, there was recognition that poverty affected more than just those whom the New Testament describes as the most needy (James 1:27 “Pure religion and undefiled before God the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction…”). In this thesis, I note the growing presence of the poor in Renaissance art and observe how artists influenced and recorded these changing attitudes towards the poor in fifteenth century Florentine art. The thesis closes with an afterword where I also note modern parallels in social attitudes towards the poor and examine how art continues to play an important role in shaping opinions about poverty today.

  • ITALIAN RENAISSANCE PAINTING by Keith Roberts
    ITALIAN Phaidon RENAISSANCE PAINTIN I •.'-• i^*^ fc F S6-95 ITALIAN RENAISSANCE PAINTING By Keith Roberts With 48 colour plates The Italian Renaissance was a creative epoch of unparalleled brilliance, particularly in the field of painting. It culminated with the works of the three undisputed giants of Italian art, Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519), Michelangelo 1 475-1 564 and Raphael ( 1 483-1 520). Beginning with the heroic naturalism of Masaccio, who was one of the great Florentine masters of the early fifteenth century, the book surveys the whole of this remarkable era, ending with the glowing, richly coloured canvases of the great Venetian masters, Titian, Tintoretto and Veronese, in the second half of the sixteenth century. A short introduction to the period is followed by notes on the artists and on the works by which they are represented. \V< >t ks by all the major artists - Fra Angelico, Piero della Francesca, Bellini, Leonardo da Vinci, Botticelli, Michelangelo and Raphael are reproduced in this volume, as well as many by artists who are less well known but who also produced works of outstanding quality and beauty. Many of the plates have been juxtaposed so as to show how different artists treat a similar theme, whether it be a Madonna, a portrait or a landscape, and this often makes for fascinating comparisons. The book as a whole, by its judicious choice of illustrations, gives a well rounded and representative picture of a fascinating period in the historv of art.
