  • Baroque Architecture
    '"" ^ 'J^. rfCur'. Fig. I. — Venice. S. Maria della Salute. (See pp. 88-90.) BAROQUE ARCHITECTURE BY MARTIN SHAW BRIGGS A.K.I. B. A. " iAulhor of " In the Heel of Italy WITH 109 ILLUSTRATIONS NEW YORK ; ' McBRIDE, NAST & COMPANY ^ y 1914 ,iMvMV NA (^Ay n^/i/j reserved) In all ages there have been some excellent workmen, and some excellent work done.—Walter Pater. PREFACE is commonly supposed that the purpose of a preface is to IT explain the scope of a book to those who do not read so far as the first page. There is a touch of cynicism in such an opinion which makes one loth to accept it, but I prefer to meet my troubles half way by stating at the outset what I have emphasized in my last chapter—that this book is not in any way an attempt to create a wholesale revival of Baroque Architecture in England. It is simply a history of a complex and neglected period, and has been prepared in the uncertain intervals of an architectural practice. The difficulty of the work has been increased by the fact that the subject has never been dealt with as a whole in any language previously. Gurlitt in his Geschichte des Barockstiles, published in 1887, covered a considerable part of the ground, but his work is very scarce and expensive. To students his volumes may be recommended for their numerous plans, but for details and general views they are less valuable. In recent years several fine mono- graphs have appeared dealing with Baroque buildings in specific districts, and very recently in a new international series the principal buildings of the period in Germany and Italy have been illustrated.

  • GIOVANNI BATTISTA TIEPOLO Venice, 1696‒Madrid, 1770
    GIOVANNI BATTISTA TIEPOLO Venice, 1696‒Madrid, 1770 Giovanni Battista Tiepolo Portrait of Giovanni Battista Tiepolo and his son Giovanni Domenico Detail of the fresco The Apotheosis of Prince‐Bishop Greiffenclau, 1753 Bayerische Verwaltung der staatlichen Schlösser, Gärten und Seen Residenz, Wurzburgo Giovanni Battista or Giambattista Tiepolo was born on 5 March 1696 in Corte di San Domenico, Castello, Venice. In 1717 he was inscribed in the Venetian painters’ guild, embarking on his career as an independent artist. He had previously trained in the workshop of the history painter Gregorio Lazzarini (1655‒1730). A comment by his first biographer, Vicenzo da Canal, describing his style at the time as rapid and free relates precisely to this period of apprenticeship. In 1719 Tiepolo married Cecilia Guardi (1703‒1779) and two of their nine children became painters: Giovanni Domenico (1727‒1804) and Lorenzo (1736‒1776). Giovanni Battista Tiepolo’s earliest assignments came from his immediate surroundings, such as the Venetian churches of Santa Maria dei Derelitti and San Stae. In the 1620s he secured his first major commission outside his city of birth: the fresco paintings on Old Testament themes to decorate the archbishop’s palace in Udine (1725‒26). In this cycle he established a style that would enjoy success at the European courts, consisting of sensual figures set in spectacular, highly dramatic architectural compositions. Everything is bathed in bright light and executed in pale tones, giving his works an elegant appearance. The following years he worked in churches, palaces and villas in the Lombardy and Veneto regions, such as the Archinto and Dugnani palaces in Milan, the latter decorated with the story of Scipio.

  • Private Palaces, Villas, and Gardens of Venice and the Veneto
    Private Palaces, Villas, and Gardens of Venice and the Veneto Sponsored by Institute of Classical Architecture & Art ƒ Arranged by Pamela Huntington Darling, Exclusive Cultural Travel Programs Sunday, October 9 to Sunday, October 16, 2011 7 days and 7 nights Fascinating Venice and Veneto, priding a rich heritage of art, architecture, and décor, are ultimately unique. Beyond the usual tourist ventures, there is a secret Venice and Veneto, known to Venetians of nobility and the privileged few. As a participant of this exclusive program, you will have the opportunity to join an intimate group of discerning travelers and be invited by members of the esteemed cultural and social world of the Veneto and Venice to private visits, luncheons, cocktail receptions, and dinners in magnificent villas and palazzi of Venetian nobility, rarely opened to outside visitors, accompanied by a historian of the Venetian community. Following the 500th anniversary of the birth of the great Italian classical architect Andrea Palladio, we will enjoy seven days of private visits and receptions in the most important Palladian villas in the Veneto and in palazzi in Venice, with their proprietors, specially organized for you. We will observe the development of Venetian art, décor and architecture through its beginnings to the emergence of the Renaissance and the peak of Venetian heritage in the 16th and the 18th centuries. Countess Giuliana di Thiene, expert lecturer and member of Venetian nobility, will guide us throughout this unique cultural travel program to the Veneto region and to Venice. For the first three nights, we will stay in the picturesque, medieval town of Asolo, “city of a thousand landscapes”, set on gentle hills that inspired Titian and Giorgione, offering stunning views of the countryside.

  • Press Release Dalí. All of the Poetic Suggestions and All of the Plastic
    Dalí. All of the poetic suggestions and all of the plastic possibilities DATES: April 27 – September 2, 2013 PLACE: Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía (Madrid) Sabatini Building. 3rd floor. ORGANIZED BY: Museo Reina Sofía and Centre Pompidou, Paris, in collaboration with the Salvador Dalí Museum Saint Petersburg (Florida). With the special collaboration of the Fundació Gala-Salvador Dalí, Figueres. CHIEF CURATOR: Jean-Hubert Martin CURATORS: Montse Aguer (exhibition at the Museo Reina Sofía, Madrid), Jean-Michel Bouhours and Thierry Dufrêne COORDINATOR: Aurora Rabanal The Museo Reina Sofía presents a major exhibition dedicated to Salvador Dalí, one of the most comprehensive shows yet held on the artist from Ampurdán. Gathered together on this unique occasion are more than 200 works from leading institutions, private collections, and the three principal repositories of Salvador Dalí’s work, the Fundació Gala-Salvador Dalí (Figueres), the Salvador Dalí Museum of St. Petersburg (Florida), and the Museo Reina Sofía (Madrid), which in this way are joining forces to show the public the best of their collections. The exhibition, a great success with the public when shown recently at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, aims to revalue Dalí as a thinker, writer and creator of a peculiar vision of the world. One exceptional feature is the presence of loans from leading institutions like the MoMA (New York), which is making available the significant work The Persistence of Memory (1931); the Philadelphia Museum of Art, which is lending Soft Construction with Boiled Beans (Premonition of Civil War) (1936); the Tate Modern, whose contribution is Metamorphosis of Narcissus (1937); and the Musées Royaux des Beaux-Arts, Belgium, the lender of The Temptation of St Anthony (1946).
