    A Passion for Porcelain: A Symposium in Honour of Meredith Chilton September 21 - 22, 2018 Friday September 21 9 - 9:45 am Registration and light breakfast 9:45 - 10 am Welcome Remarks James Appleyard, Chair of the Board of Trustees, Gardiner Museum 10 - 10:45 am Flights of Imagination: Claudius Innocentius du Paquier and the Tastes of his Patrons Dr. Claudia Lehner-Jobst, Independent Art Historian and Curator, Vienna This year we celebrate the 300th anniversary of the founding of Claudius Innocentius Du Paquier's private porcelain manufactory. Based on newly discovered objects, this lecture explores the connections of early Vienna porcelain with the tastes of its noble patrons at a time when the city was absorbing a Baroque international style and developing its distinctive character in a uniquely playful manner. Dr. Claudia Lehner-Jobst will explore the artistic and social vibrancy of the imperial city around 1718 through the eyes of the modellers and painters of Du Paquier, who created works for the elite—confident members of the cultural avant-garde—as well as fulfilling imperial orders of diplomatic gifts which charmed the tastes of their recipients. 10:45 - 11:30 am Porcelaine à la mode: The Eighteenth-Century Collections of the Baden Princesses Sebastian Kuhn, Bonhams, London The ruling family of Baden in southwestern Germany boasted three notable porcelain collectors in the eighteenth century: the Margravines Sibylla Augusta of Baden-Baden (1675-1733), Magdalena Wilhelmine of Baden-Durlach (1677-1742), and Karoline Luise of Baden-Durlach (1723-83). Whereas the first two collections were displayed in a Northern European Baroque manner, Karoline Luise—who inherited the collections of her forebears—perceived porcelain through the lens of the Enlightenment and had a more scientific approach to collecting.

  • The Rinceau Design, the Minor Arts and the St. Louis Psalter
    The Rinceau Design, the Minor Arts and the St. Louis Psalter Suzanne C. Walsh A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Art History. Chapel Hill 2011 Approved by: Dr. Jaroslav Folda Dr. Eduardo Douglas Dr. Dorothy Verkerk Abstract Suzanne C. Walsh: The Rinceau Design, the Minor Arts and the St. Louis Psalter (Under the direction of Dr. Jaroslav Folda) The Saint Louis Psalter (Bibliothèque National MS Lat. 10525) is an unusual and intriguing manuscript. Created between 1250 and 1270, it is a prayer book designed for the private devotions of King Louis IX of France and features 78 illustrations of Old Testament scenes set in an ornate architectural setting. Surrounding these elements is a heavy, multicolored border that uses a repeating pattern of a leaf encircled by vines, called a rinceau. When compared to the complete corpus of mid-13th century art, the Saint Louis Psalter's rinceau design has its origin outside the manuscript tradition, from architectural decoration and metalwork and not other manuscripts. This research aims to enhance our understanding of Gothic art and the interrelationship between various media of art and the creation of the complete artistic experience in the High Gothic period. ii For my parents. iii Table of Contents List of Illustrations....................................................................................................v Chapter I.

In both areas work was a continuationof the activitiesof 1986.1 AREA OF THE DECUMANUS SOUTH OF TEMPLE E ROMAN LEVELS (Fig. 1; Pls. 33-37:a) The area that now lies excavated south of Temple E is, at a maximum, 25 m. north-south by 13.25 m. east-west. The earliest architecturalfeature exposed in this set of trenches is a paved east-west road, identified in the 1986 excavation report as the Roman decumanus south of Temple E (P1. 33). This year more of that street has been uncovered, with a length of 13.25 m. of paving now cleared, along with a sidewalk on either side.

  • TROVE at ICFF 2014 Release FINAL
    TROVE BRINGS STUNNING NEW SPRING COLLECTION TO ICFF New York, NY, May 17-20 Booth #2006 (May, 2014 – New York, NY) Returning to ICFF this year, Trove celebrates spring with an alluring new collection of images and patterns that once again push the dimension of wallpaper design in beautiful and unexpected ways. Jee Levin and Randall Buck, co- founders of Trove, are innovative multimedia designers who approach each new collection as artists to a blank canvas. Drawing influences from myriad media and experiences—from architecture, film and art history to travel and nature—this new collection exhibits the distinctive qualities of Trove designs: surprising scale, unconventional color palette, and a poetry and grace that transforms walls into works of art, inviting interpretation. At ICFF in the Javits Center (Booth #2006), Trove will present five arresting new designs: Allee, Rinceau, Grotte, Suichuka, and Macondo along with Trace, a recently released design that makes its ICFF debut this year. All of the patterns are available in 6 colorways and in Trove’s signature scale, which repeats at 12-foot high and 6-foot wide and can be customized to height. Allee Allee presents an expansive dreamscape inspired by Alain Resnais’ 1961 film, “Last Year at Marienbad.” Set in an unspecified formal garden, the film plays with spatial and temporal shifts in scenes to create an ambiguous narrative. The designers translate the cinematic repetition to photographic repetition, composing a landscape organized around a central pathway thereby inviting the passerby to wander into this mise en scene. Rinceau French for foliage, “rinceau” describes a style of filigree that is characterized by leafy stems, florid swirls and sinuous natural elements.
