Here we see people of all ages, nude and clothed, performing varied activities in numerous poses, all in a setting that includes different bodies of water, types of architecture, land forms, and animals. • Wealthy Roman patrons liked landscapes like this one, combining natural and human-made elements in an orderly structure. Rather than emphasizing the vast distance between foreground and horizon with a sweeping view, Domenichino placed boundaries between the foreground (the shoreline), middle ground (architecture), and distance. Viewers can then experience the scene’s depth in a more measured way. • For many years, scholars thought this was a copy of a painting by Domenichino, but recently it has been argued that it is an original. The argument is based on careful comparison of many of the picture’s stylistic characteristics, and on the presence of so many figures in complex poses.

  • 096-Santa Maria Della Vittoria
    (096/11) Santa Maria della Vittoria Santa Maria della Vittoria is a 17th century baroque is titular and conventual church in Rome dedicated to the Blessed Virgin, under her title of Our Lady of Victory. For wealth, harmony and beauty, this church is one of the most representative monuments of the baroque style. History The present church is on the site of a very small but ancient chapel dedicated to St Paul, which had a hermitage attached for one hermit in the early 16th century. He justified his social existence by helping travelers caught out by darkness, bad weather and the threat of robbery. Back then, the area was entirely rural to the point where the Roman nobility used to go hunting and shooting birds hereabouts, especially in the deserted and overgrown ruins of the Baths of Diocletian nearby. (1) In the reign of Pope Paul V, however, the little chapel was demolished and replaced with a bigger edifice called San Paolo alla Fontana Felice (St Paul of the Happy Fountain), after a new acqueduct which had its terminus at the fountain across the road. (1) The present church was built by the Discalced Carmelite Friars, who purchased the church and some land adjacent in 1607. Initially they financed the work themselves, but when clearing the foundations discovered a superb pagan statue, called the Borghese Hermaphrodite, which is now in the Louvre. Cardinal Scipione Borghese made a deal with them, whereby he obtained the statue in exchange for paying for the work. Construction by the friars started in 1608, under the direction of Carlo Maderno, but the Cardinal's architect Giovanni Battista Soria was also involved after 1624 and it was he who designed the façade.

  • Here We Have Guido Reni's “St. Matthew and the Angel,”
    3 About the Cover: Here we have Guido Reni’s “St. Matthew and the Angel,” an Italian Baroque painting c.1635-40. This painting not only symbolizes the mystic nature of Catholicism, but also embodies the theme of our journal “The Word and Image.” St. Matthew’s quill moves rapidly as the Angel moves his hands, indicating direct speech, yet the hypnotic gaze alludes to something more than spoken word. This demonstrates the importance and power behind literature, as the dialogue between word and image presents itself as complex yet cohesive. We hope you enjoy the thought- provoking essays within this journal, as they aim to analyze the theme of “Word and Image” in Christianity, past and present. Matthew Sottile Associate Editor From the Editor’s Desk: The theme for this edition is “The Word and Image” which explores how Christianity, or Christian themes, are represented or depicted in the various arts including visual arts, music, drama, and literature. The number of submissions far exceeded our expectations, and it is with joy that we present the following essays, which did not come without a hard gruelling review process. The following works explore Christian representation from a wide scope of artistic and literary angles from the time of early Christianity to the present day. Our first essay, by Lisa D’Souza, explores the depiction of the holy women Thecla and Perpetua in The Apocryphal Acts of Paul and Thecla. How did women in the early Church achieve holiness? Or how were women in the early Church expected to attain holiness? How was holiness manifested in their bodies? In written stories, how does the aesthetic depiction of these women inspire others to follow Christ? Our second essay, by Aliyah Bhatia, picks up the question of visual representation of holiness by adding a material dimension to acts of devotion with the role of relics and reliquaries in the medieval period, with a particular focus on the reliquary of the Virgin and Child.

  • From Guido Reni to Carracci- Scholar Bequeaths 57
    AUTHENTICATION IN ART Art News Service From Guido Reni to Carracci: Scholar Bequeaths 57 Baroque Masterpieces to UK Museums by BLOUIN ARTINFO UK Published: February 19, 2013 The donation of late Sir Denis Mahon’s impressive collection of Baroque paintings has been finalized, the Art Fund announced this morning. 57 pictures by the likes of Guido Reni, Ludovico Carracci, and Pietro de Cortana have now entered the permanent collections of six major UK galleries. Twenty five pieces have gone to London’s National Gallery, twelve to Oxford’s Ashmolean, eight to Edinburgh’s Scottish National Gallery, six to Cambridge’s Fitzwilliam Museum, five to Birmingham’s Museums and Art Gallery, and one to Leeds’s Temple Newsham House. “Sir Denis was associated with the National Gallery for nearly eighty years, beginning with his appointment as an attaché to Copyright Guardian News & Media Ltd 2011, photograph Martin Godwin the curatorial department under Kenneth Clark Sir Denis Mahon, photographed in the National Gallery, London and culminating in the great celebratory exhibition of his collection here in the 1990s – ‘Discovering the Italian Baroque’,” said National Gallery director Sir Nicholas Penny. “As a hyperactive trustee of the gallery and exacting friend of many curators he did much to urge us to acquire great Baroque paintings. We also acquired some from him at the end of his life and he bequeathed a masterpiece by Guercino to us. Now in addition we have received many more. He is one of our greatest benefactors and we will always honour his memory.” Mahon, who died in 2011, was one of Britain’s most prominent collectors and art historians.

  • Felsina Pittrice LIVES of the BOLOGNESE PAINTERS
    CARLO CESARE MALVASIA’S Felsina pittrice LIVES OF THE BOLOGNESE PAINTERS Published for the Center for Advanced Study in the Visual Arts, National Gallery of Art, Washington Harvey Miller Publishers An Imprint of Brepols Publishers THE FELSINA PITTRICE Count Carlo Cesare Malvasia’s Felsina pittrice, or Lives of the Bolognese Painters, first published in two volumes in Bologna in 1678, is one of the most important sources for the history and criticism of painting in Italy. Conceived in part as a response to Giorgio Vasari’s Le vite de’ più eccellenti pittori, scultori e architettori (1550/1568), the Felsina pittrice combines close observation with documentary history, and careful analysis with polemical debate. It offers the fullest account of Bolognese artists from Simone dei Crocefissi to Prospero and Lavinia Fontana, from Guercino to Elisabetta Sirani. The Carracci are treated as a family of artists, and their school (including Guido Reni, Domenichino, and Francesco Albani, among others) is documented by Malvasia in far greater detail than by any other biographer. The great art historian Luigi Lanzi (1732- 1810) said that no other school in Italy had been described by a more capable pen, and he considered the two volumes of the Felsina pittrice to be “a treasure of the most beautiful knowledge gathered from the pupils of the Carracci, whom Malvasia knew, and who helped him in this work, which was, however, accused of sometimes burning with an excessively patriotic zeal.” 2. THE CRITICAL EDITION Accusations of excessive passion for his local school, combined with unjustified charges of forgery and unreliability, have for centuries clouded the reception and understanding of Malvasia’s extraordinarily important text, which was last edited and published in 1841-44.

Peacock, Chair Elliott D. Wise James R. Swensen Department of Comparative Arts and Letters Brigham Young University Copyright © 2018 Tiffany Nicole Wixom All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Combating Voyeurism: Domenichino and the Protofeminist Artistic Tradition of Bologna Tiffany Nicole Wixom Department of Comparative Arts and Letters, BYU Master of Arts Domenichino (1581-1641), a Bolognese artist, painted a unique interpretation of Ovid’s myth of the goddess Diana and mortal hunter Actaeon in 1616 titled, Archery Contest of Diana and her Nymphs. This image depicts the goddess and her nymphs actively engaged in various activities. This portrayal is drastically different from common depictions of the time period, in which the goddess is portrayed as vulnerable, weak, and subjected to male voyeurism.
