  • Numismatica Alosta
    23 NUMISMATICA ALOSTA Naar aanleiding van de viering 60 jaar EGMP vraagt het bestuur ons een artikel te leveren over de geschiedenis van onze afdeling, over de periode 2001-2010, zoals het EGMP dat ook deed in het jaar 2000 over de periode 1991-2000. De werking van onze afdeling verliep tijdens het laatste decennium als een kabbe- lend beekje, al stellen we sinds de economische crisis van vorig jaar, zoals blijkbaar bij al de aangesloten verenigingen, enige achteruitgang van de belangstelling vast, meestal op het vlak van het verzamelen. We hopen tegen beter weten in dat de inte- resse voor de numismatiek, ook als hulpwetenschap van het vak geschiedenis, bin- nenkort opnieuw zal toenemen. Onze werking over de periode 2001-2010 is als volgt samen te vatten. Activiteiten De algemene vergadering 2007 van het EGMP ging door op 26 mei 2007 in de Salons Carlton in Aalst. De jaarlijkse EGMP-penning van deze A.V. werd opgedra- gen aan Jan De Ley, bestuurslid van Numismatica Antverpia. De voorzijde van de penning stelt een sterling met aanziend hoofd voor van Gwijde van Dampierre, graaf van Vlaanderen, vervaardigd te Aalst (B45). Hierna enkele foto’s van deze activiteit. Tijdens de academische zitting 2010 24 Tijdens de lunch Geleid bezoek aan de Stad Enkele privéveilingen, ingericht door het EGMP, hadden plaats in ons lokaal te Aalst op 27.01.2001, 19.01.2002, 30.11.2002, 31.01.2004, 29.01.2005, 30.04.2005, 28.01.2006, 27.01.2007, 26.01.2008, 31.01.2009, 28.03.2009 en 30.01.2010.

  • NORTHERN) 1995 Commemorative Anniversaries □ 3000TL Devlet Basimevi’Nin 20Th Anniversary
    STAMP PRINTING AND PHILATELY: An Initial Listing for expansion Glenn H Morgan FRPSL The listing that follows includes stamps, booklets and postal stationery that the compiler has decided should be included. It does not, for example, include every stamp that has ever been issued with, say, micro-printing or fragrance inks on it, just an example or two of favourite ones to illustrate that particular aspect of the stamp printing theme. What it does try to do, though, is to include every stamp ever issued worldwide that directly relates to the story of the stamp printing theme on philatelic items. This includes stamp printing companies (perhaps, premises views and interior shots, or company logos) and personalities (such as printer Thomas de la Rue and engraver Czeslaw Slania), also stamp printing presses and other equipment (like engraver’s burins and booklet sewing machines). Stamp paper production is also included. Additions and corrections are always welcomed, please. The layout for each entry in the catalogue listing is done to a standard template, namely: COUNTRY NAME Year Title of the Stamp Issue □ tick box Stamp Value Description of the stamp, booklet or postal stationery item. The listing only includes items of relevance, so by way of example, the stamp set of Personalities from Montserrat only includes the stamp depicting Thomas de la Rue and excludes the rest of the set that includes stamp dealers and wholesalers such as Stanley Gibbons and John Lister, and Rowland Hill. It is likely that you will be forced into buying the entire set from a dealer, though; as they are unlikely to be willing to split a set to let you purchase just the single that you require.

  • The Artists of Les Xx: Seeking and Responding to the Lure of Spain
    THE ARTISTS OF LES XX: SEEKING AND RESPONDING TO THE LURE OF SPAIN by CAROLINE CONZATTI (Under the Direction of Alisa Luxenberg) ABSTRACT The artists’ group Les XX existed in Brussels from 1883-1893. An interest in Spain pervaded their member artists, other artists invited to the their salons, and the authors associated with the group. This interest manifested itself in a variety of ways, including references to Spanish art and culture in artists’ personal letters or writings, in written works such as books on Spanish art or travel and journal articles, and lastly in visual works with overtly Spanish subjects or subjects that exhibited the influence of Spanish art. Many of these examples incorporate stereotypes of Spaniards that had existed for hundreds of years. The work of Goya was particularly interesting to some members of Les XX, as he was a printmaker and an artist who created work containing social commentary.

Liesbeth CLAES * 1 DOCENDO DISCIMUS: THE HISTORY OF NUMISMATIC EDUCATION IN BELGIUM AND SOME RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE FUTURE introduction t present, there are five courses focusing on numismatics which are part of an academic curriculum: one in Gent and two A both in Leuven and in Louvain-la-Neuve. In addition, numismatics is integrated in a course at the Université libre de Bruxelles. Furthermore, providing numismatic courses is one of the objectives of two numismatic societies, established in Liège and in Diest respectively. It is clear that our ﬔture historians, art historians, archaeologists, clas- sicists and even economists should be instructed into the science of numis- matics, since it gives them broader insights in economic processes, artistic developments, political relations, and in the power of minting. However, as will become clear in this paper, it took a long time to organise these numis- matic courses. Besides, their preservation needs to be constantly defended as they are not compulsory and need to attract a minimum number of stu- dents. ﬈e curators of the Coin Cabinet of the Royal Library in Brussels and the members of the Royal Numismatic Society of Belgium (the Society in the following) have played an active role in establishing and defending these courses even until today. sources ﬈e Revue belge de numismatique [et de sigillographie] (rbn in the following) was the starting point for this research.

  • Imagery on Belgian Postage Stamps, 1914-1945 1
    STAAT EN NATIE / ETAT ET NATION PORTRAITS OF THE NATION Imagery on Belgian Postage Stamps, 1914-1945 1 ALEXIS SCHWARZENBACH* THE ACADEMIC STUDY OF STAMPS HAS SO FAR BEEN LARGELY NEGLECTED. IN THIS ARTICLE I TRY TO ARGUE THAT STAMPS SHOULD BE SEEN AS IMPORTANT LIEUX DE MÉMOIRE 2 AND THAT, COMBINED WITH THE WRITTEN SOURCES DIRECTLY RELATED TO THEM, THEY OFFER AN IDEAL WAY OF STUDYING THE INTERRELATED TOPICS OF MEMORY AND IDENTITY 3. IN FACT THE IMAGERY DISPLAYED ON STAMPS ALLOWS BEST FOR A VISUAL REPRESENTATION OF VARIOUS DISCOURSES ABOUT ANY COUNTRY’S IDENTITY. IN CONTRAST TO NATIONAL ARCHITECTURE, FOR EXAMPLE, STAMPS HAVE THE ADVANTAGES OF BEING MORE EASILY AND FREQUENTLY ADAPTABLE TO CHANGING CIRCUMSTANCES AND - SINCE THEY CIRCULATE NOT ONLY WITHIN THE NATION BUT ALSO CARRY AN IMAGE OF THE COUNTRY TO THE ENTIRE WORLD - OF REPRESENTING THE COUNTRY ABROAD. THEY THEREFORE DULY DESERVE TO BE CALLED “PORTRAITS OF THE NATION”. I. The stamp editions n the period 1914-1945 the Belgian Post Office issued 135 stamp series containing Iover 600 different postage stamps 4. I shall first look at the reasons why these stamps were created and then I shall look at the meaning attached to their imagery 5. •_ There were three major reasons for new stamp editions. First, there was practical neces- sity. After the death of a King or due to changes in postal rates new ordinary stamps were issued, normally showing a portrait of the monarch or the Belgian heraldic lion. Secondly, there were stamps issued for fund-raising purposes. First issued in 1910 for the universal exhibition in Brussels, and annually from 1918 onwards, fund-raising stamps were stamps sold with an additional charge in favour of charitable or other, non-profit- making organisations 6.

    Andreas Vesalius in Philately ________________ by Omer Steeno and Maurits Biesbrouck 2016 STEENO & B IESBROUCK , Vesalius in Philately . Most recent version in www.andreasvesalius.be. Andreas Vesalius in Philately *********** by Omer Steeno and Maurits Biesbrouck ************ 2016 2 STEENO & B IESBROUCK , Vesalius in Philately . Most recent version in www.andreasvesalius.be. Contents Introduction List of the artists The postage stamps References 3 STEENO & B IESBROUCK , Vesalius in Philately . Most recent version in www.andreasvesalius.be. Introduction It may look rather strange that M.H. Spielmann, the first and until now the only searcher who published in a more systematic way on Vesalius iconographic items, did not include a chapter on Vesalius and Philately. The main raison is that in 1925, the year he made the publication of his Iconography of Andreas Vesalius for the Wellcome Historical Medical Museum in London, virtually no stamps were issued commemorating the great anatomist or his works. As we will see, the very first postage stamp devoted to Vesalius only appeared in 1942. At the occasion of the solemn commemoration of the 500th anniversary in 2014 of the birth of our illustrious compatriot Andreas Vesalius, he has been honoured in different ways as it was in the past. Every one knows indeed of examples of etchings, paintings, statues or statuettes, and medals with his portrait, honouring him and his works. Several publications on these subjects appeared in recent years. But few people are very well conversant with the different representations of our anatomist or his work on postage stamps. Therefore we present here a complete overview of ‘his’ stamps, which are less known, except by those specialized in medical phylately.

ENTITLED UCHRONIAS, THE FIRST ONE ATTEMPTS TO RECREATE NEW ARTISTIC AFFILIATIONS BETWEEN ANCIENT, MODERN AND CONTEMPORARY ART, TO PRODUCE “OTHER” HISTORIES OF ART, SEPARATE FROM OFFICIAL HISTORY. 3 The term uchronia was first coined in 1857 by the French philosopher Charles Renouvier (1815-1903) in his novel. By creating this neologism from the Greek prefix «u» (no) and the Greek word «chronos» (time), he immediately situated uchronia on a level of pure intellectual speculation; thus paving the way for a prolific literary, and later on, film-making genre. Now that imagination can alter the past, that past becomes a material that can be rearranged and redeployed according to other causal pathways. And if one of the elements of the past is changed, history can/must be rewritten. The new BPS22 exhibition is organised around this very assumption, drawing from its own collection and the collection of the Hainaut Province which is the Museum’s custody. More particularly, with over six thousand works, the collection of the Hainaut Province is an ideal source of inspiration as it embraces more than a century of local, regional and international fine arts.

  • 1930 Antwerp and Liege International Exhibition
    1930 Antwerp and Liege International Exhibition Each city hosted part of the exhibition. This Flemish/Walloon dichotomy, which is worse today, was fed by the Germans during the WW1 occupation. Flemish, being Dutch and hence more Germanic than French, was given greater prominence. Before 1916, the postage stamps had centimes and franc after the values. From 1916 they used cent and F so both camps were happy. Antwerp, which was the larger and more lavish site, carried the subtitle Coloniale, Maritime et d'art Flamand, while Liege hosted the sciences, industry, social economy, agriculture and music. Part of the discord between the two cities was caused by the concurrent Centenary celebrations of Belgium's independence from Holland, from whom she seceded in 1830. Brussels had staged the very successful 1910 exhibition. Now Antwerp & Liege decided it was their turn . Brussels built the Heysel Stadium to mark the centenary and the other agreed two split the exhibition between them. Both exhibitions opened on 26 April and closed on 5 November. Antwerp proved the more popular site for two reasons. Flemish art from the previous five centuries proved a tremendous attraction throughout Europe, while the colonial sections, as with simular early twentieth century exhibits, were most impressive. It was these latter sections, which dominated the official literature and set the tenor for the exhibition. Not only Belgium but France, Holland, Italy and Portugal, all colonial powers, staged the most lavish displays of empire ever held on Belgian soil. The Palais du Congo of Belgium outdid them all. (By 1960, it was a very different story).

    Art, Decoration, and the Texture of Modern Experience: The Interior Before 1900 by Alexandra E. Fraser A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History of Art) in the University of Michigan 2018 Doctoral Committee: Professor Alexander D. Potts, Chair Professor Michèle A. Hannoosh Associate Professor Howard G. Lay Professor Susan L. Siegfried Associate Professor Claire A. Zimmerman Alexandra E. Fraser [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0001-6969-1004 © Alexandra E. Fraser 2018 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation was completed with support from many friends, colleagues, family members, academic mentors, and institutions to whom I am profoundly grateful. It is a pleasure to begin by thanking my advisor, Alex Potts, whose intellectual dexterity and generosity of thought cannot be overstated. His tireless commitment to seeing this project through, and unfailing ability to find both humor and critical interest in unexplored corners of the field, remained a touchstone for me at every stage. I am deeply grateful for the experience of his mentorship. My debt to him is unlimited. Each member of my dissertation committee was influential in shaping my own way of seeing, and my approach to this material. Susan Siegfried and Michèle Hannoosh were instrumental in getting this project off the ground. Their incisive feedback, productive challenges, and encouragement at key junctures have resulted in a more multifaceted final product. I am also grateful for their individual commitments to fostering a vibrant culture of dix- neuvièmistes at the University of Michigan, a remarkable community that has genuinely shaped the character of my work and the nature of my thought.
