Demonstrating the importance of the partnership between traditional methodologies and digital applications as an approach to art historical research and presentation, this thesis determines that the subject matter and display of the ceiling cycles after 1550 shifted due to the decrees related to imagery. The first chapter provides an overview of the Catholic Church in Venice and its imagery as well as the controversy over religious imagery in the sixteenth century. Chapter One also provides historical context on the Council of Trent and the decrees laid out on imagery, as well as Venice’s response to the decrees in relation to the ceiling painting cycles. The second chapter focuses on the methodological implementation and implications of digital tools for the art historical analysis. It includes a discussion of the process of building the visualization database in Omeka and constructing three interactive maps in Carto DB that indicate the location of Venetian churches containing the ceiling cycles, where they are placed inside the complex, and the types of iconography depicted. This chapter considers why the exhibitions on the website, Iconography, Placement in the Complex, and Patrons are relevant to the art historical content along with the decisions that guided which tools could best show this content. The chapter also addresses how photographing each church ceiling painting in Venice helped to shape the database and also to reconstruct the iv experiential mode of viewing these cycles. The third chapter summarizes the findings of this thesis through an analysis of the Overview, Iconography, and Placement in the Complex maps. The digital overview map clearly shows the abundance of church ceiling painting during the sixteenth century, which seems to be a Venetian phenomenon, and a strong affirmation of sixteenth-century Catholic faith in the elaborate decoration of churches. An analysis of the three layers of the Iconography map serves as a synopsis of how the visualization program provides novel, multiple ways of comparing and assessing Catholic reform and Counter Reformation imagery. In addition, an examination of the Placement in the Complex map allows the user to recognize that the decoration of sacristies was probably a direct result of the emphasis on the Blessed Sacrament during the Tridentine period and as such, is an appropriate case study for visualization. The chapter also addresses potential ways to expand this thesis and opportunities for further research. v Dedication To my wonderful, loving, patient parents. vi Contents Abstract

THE SCOTSMAN "Those who travel for the sake of culture will be well catered for in Mr. Grant Allen's new series of historical guides. There are few more satisfactory books for a student who wishes to dig out the Paris of the past from the im- mense superincumbent mass of coffee-houses, kiosks, fashionable hotels, and other temples of civilisation, beneath which it is now submerged. Florence is more easily dug up, as you have only to go into the picture galleries, or into the churches or museums, whither Mr. Allen's^ guide accordingly conducts you, and tells you what to look at if you want to understand the art treasures of the city. The books, in a word, explain rather than describe. Such books are wanted nowadays.

  • Collaborative Painting Between Minds and Hands: Art Criticism, Connoisseurship, and Artistic Sodality in Early Modern Italy
    Collaborative Painting Between Minds and Hands: Art Criticism, Connoisseurship, and Artistic Sodality in Early Modern Italy by Colin Alexander Murray A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art University of Toronto © Copyright by Colin Murray 2016 Collaborative Painting Between Minds and Hands: Art Criticism, Connoisseurship, and Artistic Sodality in Early Modern Italy Colin Alexander Murray Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art University of Toronto 2016 Abstract The intention of this dissertation is to open up collaborative pictures to meaningful analysis by accessing the perspectives of early modern viewers. The Italian primary sources from the fifteenth to the seventeenth centuries yield a surprising amount of material indicating both common and changing habits of thought when viewers looked at multiple authorial hands working on an artistic project. It will be argued in the course of this dissertation that critics of the seventeenth century were particularly attentive to the practical conditions of collaboration as the embodiment of theory. At the heart of this broad discourse was a trope extolling painters for working with what appeared to be one hand, a figurative and adaptable expression combining the notion of the united corpo and the manifold meanings of the artist’s mano. Hardly insistent on uniformity or anonymity, writers generally believed that collaboration actualized the ideals of a range of social, cultural, theoretical, and cosmological models in which variously formed types of unity were thought to be fostered by the mutual support of the artists’ minds or souls. Further theories arose in response to Giovanni Paolo Lomazzo’s hypothesis in 1590 that the greatest painting would combine the most highly regarded old masters, each contributing their particular talents towards the whole.

OF WHICH THIS IS NUMBER A HISTORY OF PAINTING BY HALDANE MAGFALL WITH A PREFACE BY FRANK BRANGWYN IN EIGHT VOLUMES. ILLUSTRATED WITH TWO HUNDRED PLATES IN COLOUR VOL. Ill LATER ITALIANS AND GENIUS OF SPAIN DANA ESTES AND CO. BOSTON Art Library 5o FOREWORD To the student who desires full information upon the significance of the Italian genius in painting after the great outburst of that genius in the Renaissance, in the years of the so-called Decline, I can findfew books to recommend in the English tongue—for the greatness of the Naturalisti has not yet been discovered, whilst the old vogue of the Eclectics was exaggerated as much in laudation as it is to-day condemned by contempt. But the great Spaniards have come into their own—or are coming. The best authorities on the scientific side concerning Velazquez and Spanish art generally are Beruete and Carl Justi, and they may be read in an English translation. An excellent survey of the Spanish achievement, setforth in fairly good balance, is the volume written by Mrs. Gasquoine Hartley, entitled " A Record of Spanish Painting." The writings of R. A. M. Stevenson, Sir William Stirling-Maxwell, Arthur Symons, W. Rothenstein, and the many brilliant students, English and foreign, who have done so much to set the bays on the heads of the great Spaniards, are helpful.

  • Rocking the Boat
    Andrea Rizzi, Elizabeth Horodowich Rocking the Boat: Language and Identity on an Early Modern Gondola Andrea Rizzi, Elizabeth Horodowich Scholars’ interest in the history of the gondola has not been matched by a corresponding attention to gondoliers, their social background, or their place in the urban fabric of early modern Venice.1 Through the analysis of a collective range of sources, ranging from archival records to literary intimations, this chapter offers a first step towards a social and cultural history of gondoliers. Sixteenth-century Venetian gondoliers were infamous for their barbed tongues and their “indecent or derisory words towards passengers.”2 Copious archival evidence demonstrates that boatmen were well-known in the city for their insolence, and that their words were regularly perceived as threatening and dangerous. By considering their verbal acts and investigating gondoliers’ use of spoken language in everyday life—as well as the relationships of power inherently embedded and reflected in them—this essay seeks to suggest some of the ways we might begin to better understand boatmen’s identity in Renaissance Venice and shed light on the Venetian patriciate’s complex legal and social relationships with this disruptive yet indispensable community of workers.3 Gondoliers, we argue, were particularly dynamic, valent, and fluid figures in the city. They occupied both visible and hidden physical locations in Venice, and their ubiquitous presence in the city’s canals and key stopping points along them regularly placed them in a position to witness crimes or glean precious information, often by word of mouth. 1 Andrea Rizzi, Elizabeth Horodowich Moreover, gondoliers themselves were often verbally disruptive.

Translation of VII. 2 EDITOR’S INTRODUCTION Faliero the myth The first thing that would have struck Byron on discovering Marino Faliero in Venice in November 1816 was that he had no tomb: indeed, nothing to commemorate him in a positive way. In the space where his portrait should be, on the wall of the Great Hall of the Palace of the Doges, there is a painted curtain drawn across (see illustration above). Two years later, Byron tells us in his preface, he sought out the actual tomb, and was shown “a sarcophagus in the wall with an illegible inscription”.1 It would have coincided eerily with the fates of so many of his own protagonists – the Giaour, Conrad, Lara, Kaled, Ezzelin, Alp, Parisina, Hugo … and even the recently-created Astarte – creatures of his own imagining, none of whom are properly buried.
