  • Evolution and Ambition in the Career of Jan Lievens (1607-1674)
    ABSTRACT Title: EVOLUTION AND AMBITION IN THE CAREER OF JAN LIEVENS (1607-1674) Lloyd DeWitt, Ph.D., 2006 Directed By: Prof. Arthur K. Wheelock, Jr. Department of Art History and Archaeology The Dutch artist Jan Lievens (1607-1674) was viewed by his contemporaries as one of the most important artists of his age. Ambitious and self-confident, Lievens assimilated leading trends from Haarlem, Utrecht and Antwerp into a bold and monumental style that he refined during the late 1620s through close artistic interaction with Rembrandt van Rijn in Leiden, climaxing in a competition for a court commission. Lievens’s early Job on the Dung Heap and Raising of Lazarus demonstrate his careful adaptation of style and iconography to both theological and political conditions of his time. This much-discussed phase of Lievens’s life came to an end in 1631when Rembrandt left Leiden. Around 1631-1632 Lievens was transformed by his encounter with Anthony van Dyck, and his ambition to be a court artist led him to follow Van Dyck to London in the spring of 1632. His output of independent works in London was modest and entirely connected to Van Dyck and the English court, thus Lievens almost certainly worked in Van Dyck’s studio. In 1635, Lievens moved to Antwerp and returned to history painting, executing commissions for the Jesuits, and he also broadened his artistic vocabulary by mastering woodcut prints and landscape paintings. After a short and successful stay in Leiden in 1639, Lievens moved to Amsterdam permanently in 1644, and from 1648 until the end of his career was engaged in a string of important and prestigious civic and princely commissions in which he continued to demonstrate his aptitude for adapting to and assimilating the most current style of his day to his own somber monumentality.

  • THE POWER of BEAUTY in RESTORATION ENGLAND Dr
    THE POWER OF BEAUTY IN RESTORATION ENGLAND Dr. Laurence Shafe [email protected] THE WINDSOR BEAUTIES www.shafe.uk • It is 1660, the English Civil War is over and the experiment with the Commonwealth has left the country disorientated. When Charles II was invited back to England as King he brought new French styles and sexual conduct with him. In particular, he introduced the French idea of the publically accepted mistress. Beautiful women who could catch the King’s eye and become his mistress found that this brought great wealth, titles and power. Some historians think their power has been exaggerated but everyone agrees they could influence appointments at Court and at least proposition the King for political change. • The new freedoms introduced by the Reformation Court spread through society. Women could appear on stage for the first time, write books and Margaret Cavendish was the first British scientist. However, it was a totally male dominated society and so these heroic women had to fight against established norms and laws. Notes • The Restoration followed a turbulent twenty years that included three English Civil Wars (1642-46, 1648-9 and 1649-51), the execution of Charles I in 1649, the Commonwealth of England (1649-53) and the Protectorate (1653-59) under Oliver Cromwell’s (1599-1658) personal rule. • Following the Restoration of the Stuarts, a small number of court mistresses and beauties are renowned for their influence over Charles II and his courtiers. They were immortalised by Sir Peter Lely as the ‘Windsor Beauties’. Today, I will talk about Charles II and his mistresses, Peter Lely and those portraits as well as another set of portraits known as the ‘Hampton Court Beauties’ which were painted by Godfrey Kneller (1646-1723) during the reign of William III and Mary II.

  • The Collecting, Dealing and Patronage Practices of Gaspare Roomer
    ART AND BUSINESS IN SEVENTEENTH-CENTURY NAPLES: THE COLLECTING, DEALING AND PATRONAGE PRACTICES OF GASPARE ROOMER by Chantelle Lepine-Cercone A thesis submitted to the Department of Art History In conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada (November, 2014) Copyright ©Chantelle Lepine-Cercone, 2014 Abstract This thesis examines the cultural influence of the seventeenth-century Flemish merchant Gaspare Roomer, who lived in Naples from 1616 until 1674. Specifically, it explores his art dealing, collecting and patronage activities, which exerted a notable influence on Neapolitan society. Using bank documents, letters, artist biographies and guidebooks, Roomer’s practices as an art dealer are studied and his importance as a major figure in the artistic exchange between Northern and Sourthern Europe is elucidated. His collection is primarily reconstructed using inventories, wills and artist biographies. Through this examination, Roomer emerges as one of Naples’ most prominent collectors of landscapes, still lifes and battle scenes, in addition to being a sophisticated collector of history paintings. The merchant’s relationship to the Spanish viceregal government of Naples is also discussed, as are his contributions to charity. Giving paintings to notable individuals and large donations to religious institutions were another way in which Roomer exacted influence. This study of Roomer’s cultural importance is comprehensive, exploring both Northern and Southern European sources. Through extensive use of primary source material, the full extent of Roomer’s art dealing, collecting and patronage practices are thoroughly examined. ii Acknowledgements I am deeply thankful to my thesis supervisor, Dr. Sebastian Schütze.

  • Northern Italianate Landscape Painters
    Northern Italianate Landscape Painters ... Northern artists had long spent time in Italy – hence the work of Pieter de Kempeneer (1503-1580) (Room 9) and Frans Floris (1516-1570) in the sixteenth century, who drew their inspiration from the Antique and contemporary masters. Landscape painters Paul Bril (1554-1626) and Adam Elsheimer (1574/78-1610/20) (Room 10), settled there from the end of the sixteenth century and were to influence the Italian school profoundly. However, from around 1620, the Northern Diaspora gave rise to a novel way of representing the towns and countryside of Italy. Cornelis van Poelenburgh (1595/96-1667) went to Rome in 1617 and around 1623 was among the founder members of the Bentvueghels “birds of a feather”, an association of mutual support for Northern artists, goldsmiths and “art lovers” – not only Flemish and Dutch, but Room also Germans and even a few French. He painted shepherds in the ruins and plains of Latium where the harsh light creates strong shadows. Around 1625, the Dutch painter Pieter van Berchem Laer (1599-1642 ?), nicknamed Il Bamboccio, invented the bambocciate, a different take on Caravaggesque scenes of realism showing moments of contemporary Italian low-life in ... the open air and bringing a modern feel to the subject matter. The bambocciate met with considerable success. Flemish and From these two trends – pastoral landscapes suffused with light, and racy at times Dutch Painting vulgar scenes of daily life – was to develop a whole chapter in European painting, dominated by Northern artists but also marked by Italians such as Michelangelo Cerquozzi (1602-1660) and French painters like Sébastien Bourdon (1616-1671).

  • Maritime Romanticism Created by Jake Tedesco January, 2021
    2020 2021 Maritime Romanticism Created by Jake Tedesco January, 2021 Motivation Inspired by the artwork of Ivan Aivazovsky, students will be introduced to his maritime painting and the Romantic movement in art. In this project, students will draw a sailing ship, by following step-by- step instructions to create a vessel much like those that made the great oceans passable for exploration, transportation, and trade. In order to intensify the drawing composition, students will apply color by layering transparent washes of watercolor paints.
