  • The Domed Temple in Renaissance Italy and in Early Printed Sources
    CHAPTER EIGHT THE DOMED TEMPLE IN RENAISSANCE ITALY AND IN EARLY PRINTED SOURCES During the Italian Renaissance the motif of the circular or octagonal Temple of Solomon took on a life of its own, for it became linked to the idea of a centralized church plan. Such a circular plan with its uniformity and har- mony came to connote the justice of God. Architects of the period ranked round and domical temples above all others, often spurred on, additionally, by their admiration for classical Roman architecture such as the Pantheon.1 In this climate, evoking Solomon’s Temple as a circular building was per- fectly natural, even though it contradicted the biblical text and the rectilin- ear measurements supposedly handed down by God.2 One of the first Renaissance paintings to include a circular Temple is Perugino’s “Delivery of the Keys to St. Peter” in the Sistine Chapel, dating from 1481. (fig. 8.1) Perugino executed the painting under the patronage of Sixtus IV, the pope responsible for the remodeling of the old Capella Magna into the new Sistine Chapel. The architecture and the mural paintings were planned simultaneously in the 1470s and were developed to emphasize the primacy of Rome and the papacy. The Perugino image reflects precisely that theme. In a wide piazza in front of the Temple, Christ gives the keys of temporal and spiritual power to the kneeling Peter. The Gospel passage referenced is Jesus’ pronouncement that he will hand over the keys of heaven to Peter (Matthew 16:18–20). Though Matthew’s Gospel records Jesus’ words, the text does not relate the actual handover—that had to be imagined.

  • A Little Rome at Home
    A little Rome at home An exhibition of Michelangelo’s frescoes opens at MacArthur Center today Delphian Sybyl from “Michelangelo – A Different View.” The exhibition lets viewers see details they couldn’t spot at the Sistine Chapel. (Courtesy of Virginia Arts Festival ) BY DENISE M. WATSONSTAFF WRITER For the next three weeks, locals can take a Roman holiday in Norfolk. The Virginia Arts Festival and MacArthur Center are co-presenting “Michelangelo — A Different View,” which includes high-resolution reproductions of the artist’s famous frescos from the Sistine Chapel in Rome. The exhibition comprises nearly 50 pieces by Renaissance masters, primarily Michelangelo’s depictions of Biblical stories, from the creation of Adam to Christ’s administering the last judgment. Also in the show are 14 reproductions of the “Quattrocento” frescoes that decorate some of the chapel’s walls, which were completed by Pietro Perugino, Sandro Botticelli, Cosimo Rosselli and Domenico Ghirlandaio, one of Michelangelo’s teachers. Images of the interior and exterior of the Sistine Chapel are also included. The fabric panels, the largest more than 18 feet tall, will be displayed in the former Forever 21 on the second floor of the mall. The exhibition allows viewers to see details they couldn’t normally spot, even in a visit to Rome. The chapel’s ceiling hovers 70 feet above visitors’ heads. Michelangelo spent four years, 1508 to 1512, transforming the ceiling of the chapel, working from special scaffolding he created. He returned to the chapel and painted the elaborate “Last Judgment” on the altar wall between 1536 and 1541.

These painters were considered to be the most skillful artists at that time and all of them had already managed their own workshop.

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.

  • WRITING ABOUT EARLY RENAISSANCE WORKS of ART in VENICE and FLORENCE (1550-1800) Laura-Maria
    BETWEEN TASTE AND HISTORIOGRAPHY: WRITING ABOUT EARLY RENAISSANCE WORKS OF ART IN VENICE AND FLORENCE (1550-1800) Laura-Maria Popoviciu A dissertation submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Combined Historical Studies The Warburg Institute University of London 2014 1 I declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own _______________________________ Laura-Maria Popoviciu 2 ABSTRACT My dissertation is an investigation of how early Renaissance paintings from Venice and Florence were discussed and appraised by authors and collectors writing in these cities between 1550 and 1800. The variety of source material I have consulted has enabled me to assess and to compare the different paths pursued by Venetian and Florentine writers, the type of question they addressed in their analyses of early works of art and, most importantly, their approaches to the re-evaluation of the art of the past. Among the types of writing on art I explore are guidebooks, biographies of artists, didactic poems, artistic dialogues, dictionaries and letters, paying particular attention in these different genres to passages about artists from Guariento to Giorgione in Venice and from Cimabue to Raphael in Florence. By focusing, within this framework, on primary sources and documents, as well as on the influence of art historical literature on the activity of collecting illustrated by the cases of the Venetian Giovanni Maria Sasso and the Florentine Francesco Maria Niccolò Gabburri, I show that two principal approaches to writing about the past emerged during this period: the first, adopted by many Venetian authors, involved the aesthetic evaluation of early Renaissance works of art, often in comparison to later developments; the second, more frequent among Florentine writers, tended to document these works and place them in their historical context, without necessarily making artistic judgements about them.

  • The Production Methods of Neri Di Bicci and the Prevalence of Cartoon Usage in Fifteenth-Century Florence
    The Production Methods of Neri di Bicci and the Prevalence of Cartoon Usage in Fifteenth-Century Florence Jennifer Adrienne Diorio A thesis submitted to the Graduate Program in the Department of Art in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada August 2013 Copyright © Jennifer Adrienne Diorio 2013 ABSTRACT Florentine artist Neri di Bicci (1418-1492) was one of the most prolific and financially successful artists of the fifteenth century. The hundreds of extant paintings from his workshop are a testament to his industry, which is further underlined by a close examination of the 798 entries he wrote between 1453 and 1475 in his account book, his Ricordanze. The purpose of this dissertation is to analyse the monetary and social history in Neri’s Ricordanze in order to provide a framework for an exploration of the way that paintings were constructed in Neri’s workshop, and a close examination of the evidence concerning collaboration between Neri and his contemporaries. This thesis determined that the repeated use of full-size paper patterns, known as cartoons, was a key aspect of Neri’s painting procedure. Cartoon usage was established by overlaying scaled images of paintings in Photoshop, which demonstrated that the outlines of many of Neri’s figures and architectural designs were identical. Analysing the price of Neri’s paintings also revealed trends which suggested that he used cartoons. Half of the 224 objects described in the Ricordanze cost 30 lire or less, and the average of the 40 paintings between two and four square meters was 151 lire, less than half the regional average for paintings of comparable size.

  • Discursive Meditation and Botticelli's Bardi Altarpiece
    chapter 4 Discursive Meditation and Botticelli’s Bardi Altarpiece 1 Meditation and the Choir Altarpieces 1.1 Passion Images and Affective Meditation The role of varied incident and striking detail in stimulating devotion is evident in the two altarpieces devoted to the Passion in the choir. The earliest, Biagio d’Antonio Tucci’s c. 1499 Journey to Calvary (fig. 4.1) was located in the left arm at the entrance to the croce. D’Antonio was a sophisticated Florentine artist, author of brightly hued cassone paintings as well as carefully designed reli- gious works.1 Here, he adapted his lively style to Christ’s carrying of the cross, an image that had already developed a rich tradition in Northern Europe.2 D’Antonio’s painting is replete with features that belong to this northern tradi- tion, most prominently, the parting glance between Christ and the Virgin, the brutality of the guards, and Saint Veronica’s presentation of the Sudarium. The artist was also faithful to the formal devices found in northern representations, pressing up grotesque profiles against the picture plane, enmeshing figures so that body parts appear chopped up, and using the jarring obliques of banners and weaponry and the clash of bright, discordant hues. This accumulation of incident and descriptive detail in the Journey to Calvary succeeds in evoking the violence and claustrophobia typical of the painting’s northern prototype: a procession framed by two turbaned figures in strict profile and yellow garb and a grimacing, punching soldier, while Christ’s followers emerge as a row of parallel faces hemmed in by a matching row of jutting rocks in the cliff above.
