(Jan. 16, 2016) -- One of only two of Botticelli’s paintings of an isolated Venus will be on view for the first time in the United States in Botticelli and the Search for the Divine: Florentine Painting Between the Medici and the Bonfires of the Vanities, a major international loan exhibition organized by the Muscarelle Museum of Art in Williamsburg, Va., in partnership with the Museum of Fine Art in Boston, and Italy’s Associazione Culturale Metamorfosi. The restless, prolific and original genius of Sandro Botticelli (1445-1510) will be explored in depth in this historic exhibition, which features sixteen of his paintings, most with life- size figures, from major museums and churches in six Italian cities, including Florence, Milan and Venice. Every phase of the artist’s long, tumultuous career is represented in the selection, by far the largest and most important Botticelli exhibition ever staged in the United States. Botticelli and the Search for the Divine will also feature six rare paintings by Botticelli’s great master Filippo Lippi, the only pupil of Masaccio. The cultural milieu of Renaissance Florence will be represented by paintings by Filippo’s son, Filippino Lippi, Botticelli’s most important student and a leading master in his own right, as well as Antonio Pollaiuolo, and portraits of Lorenzo the Magnificent and his nemesis, Fra Girolamo Savonarola.

The Esther Tapestries and the Duke of Burgundy The Duchy of Burgundy, ruled first by Philip the Bold from a branch of the French Valois family, which reigned from 1363 to 1404, was known for its magnificent court cul- ture.(1) The palaces built everywhere within the Duchy were gorgeously adorned and hosted a great number of magnificent jousts, joyous entries, processions, and feasts. They not only provided aesthetic enjoyment for viewers but also impressed them with the great power of the Dukes of Burgundy.(2) Among numerous ornaments displayed at the palaces, large tap- estries woven with gold and silver threads were particularly striking, powerfully conveying their owners’ wealth and authority. One typical example was the set of Alexander Tapes- tries, depicting the life of the ancient ruler Alexander the Great (356 BC-323 BC).(3) Although the set of Alexander Tapestries is no longer complete, it is believed to have con- sisted of six large tapestries, measuring more than eight meters in width. They were fre- quently on display during meetings and feasts held by the third Duke of Burgundy, Philip the Good, who reigned from 1419 to 1467 (see Fig. 8)(4) and his son Charles the Bold, who became the fourth Duke of Burgundy, reigning from 1467 to 1477 (Fig. 9).(5) They won par- ticularly high praise when exhibited at the palace of the Duke of Burgundy in Paris.

  • Women and Masks: the Economics of Painting and Meaning in the Mezza Figura Allegories by Lippi, Dandini and Martinelli
    Originalveröffentlichung in: Fumagalli, Elena (Hrsg.): Firenze milleseicentoquaranta : arti, lettere, musica, scienza, Venezia 2010, 311-323 u. Abb. (Studi e ricerche / Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florenz, Max-Planck- Institut ; 6) ECKHARD LEUSCHNER WOMEN AND MASKS: THE ECONOMICS OF PAINTING AND MEANING IN THE MEZZA FIGURA ALLEGORIES BY LIPPI, DANDINI AND MARTINELLI A considerable number of paintings produced in Florence and usually dated to the late 1630s, the 1640s and early 1650s represents half-length figures of young women before a dark background. Among the attributes of these women, masks of similar shapes, probably made of leather and equipped with rather expressionless faces, appear regularly. Art history has not yet analysed these half-length figures as a group with related charac­ teristics, neither in terms of style and picture size nor in terms of allegori­ cal meaning. Most scholars, as a matter of fact, have limited themselves to discussing just one example, the so­called Simulazione by Lorenzo Lippi (fig. 1) in the museum of Angers which has acquired a certain prominence after having been chosen to decorate the cover of the Seicento exhibition in Paris in 1988.' In Lippi's painting, a woman with a serious expression on her face confronts the spectator with two objects in her hands, a mask and a pomegranate. Several art historians have interpreted one or both attributes as references to Simulatione in Cesare Ripa's Iconologia thus describing Lippi's woman as a personification of Simulation ­ or of a simi­ lar allegorical quality, Dissimulation.1 Chiara d'Afflitto went one step fur­ 1 See Seicento, exhibition catalogue, Paris 1988; the entry for the picture by A.

  • Filippino Lippi and Music
    Filippino Lippi and Music Timothy J. McGee Trent University Un examen attentif des illustrations musicales dans deux tableaux de Filippino Lippi nous fait mieux comprendre les intentions du peintre. Dans le « Portrait d’un musicien », l’instrument tenu entre les mains du personnage, tout comme ceux représentés dans l’arrière-plan, renseigne au sujet du type de musique à être interprétée, et contribue ainsi à expliquer la présence de la citation de Pétrarque dans le tableau. Dans la « Madone et l’enfant avec les anges », la découverte d’une citation musicale sur le rouleau tenu par les anges musiciens suggère le propos du tableau. n addition to their value as art, paintings can also be an excellent source of in- Iformation about people, events, and customs of the past. They can supply clear details about matters that are known only vaguely from written accounts, or in some cases, otherwise not known at all. For the field of music history, paintings can be informative about a number of social practices surrounding the performance of music, such as where performances took place, who attended, who performed, and what were the usual combinations of voices and instruments—the kind of detail that is important for an understanding of the place of music in a society, but that is rarely mentioned in the written accounts. Paintings are a valuable source of information concerning details such as shape, exact number of strings, performing posture, and the like, especially when the painter was knowledgeable about instruments and performance practices,

  • Early Renaissance
    Caroline Mc Corriston Early Renaissance Masaccio (1401- 1428) Italian ​ He was born as Tommaso Cassai but later became known as Masaccio, which is a pet name for Tommaso. It is not known where he trained as an artist. When he joined the artists guild of Florence in 1422 he was already an independant artist with his own workshop. He is most famous for his expert use of central perspective in his paintings, which was a technique developed to create the illusion of depth and space by Giotto, Ghiberti and Donatello. From Giotto he also learned to create three dimensional space, sculptural, realistic and naturalistic expressions and gestures. He preferred Greek and Roman sculpture rather than Gothic. ● The artist began by drawing a grid and sketching the objects and figures into it. ● He then chose a standpoint of the viewer in the centre of the painting. This is also called the vanishing point or centre of perspective. ● Using thread, he then measured lines outwards from the vanishing point to the objects and figures. This informed him of the depth of the objects within the painting. From this, he could figure out the sizes and dimensions of objects giving the impression they are receding into the distance or appearing close up. Important Works The Brancacci Chapel Frescoes, 1424-28 ● The frescoes that adorn the walls of the Brancacci Chapel in Florence are among the most famous of the entire Renaissance period. They are the result of contributions from a number of artists, including Masaccio. ● Masolino da Panicale began the paintings in 1424, assisted by a young Masaccio ● Masaccio took over the project in 1425 until his death in 1428 ● Filippino Lippi then completed the paintings.

    M234 Renaissance Florence – Instructor Andrea Ciccarelli T, W, Th 11:10-1:15PM (Time of class may change according to museum/sites visit times. Time changes will be sent via email but also announced in class the day before). This course is designed to explore the main aspects of Renaissance civilization, with a major emphasis on the artistic developments, in Florence (1300’s – 1500’s). We will focus on: • The passage from Gothic Architecture to the new style that recovers ancient classical forms (gives birth again = renaissance) through Brunelleschi’s and Alberti’s ideas • The development of mural and table painting from Giotto to Masaccio, and henceforth to Fra Angelico, Ghirlandaio, Botticelli and Raphael • Sculpture, mostly on Ghiberti, Donatello and Michelangelo. We will study and discuss, of course, other great Renaissance artists, in particular, for architecture: Michelozzo; for sculpture: Desiderio da Settignano, Cellini and Giambologna; for painting: Filippo Lippi, Andrea del Castagno, Filippino Lippi, Bronzino and Pontormo. For pedagogical matters as well as for time constraints, during museum and church/sites visits we will focus solely or mostly on artists and works inserted in the syllabus. Students are encouraged to visit the entire museums or sites, naturally. Some lessons will be part discussion of the reading/ visual assignments and part visits; others will be mostly visits (but there will be time for discussion and questions during and after visits). Because of their artistic variety and their chronological span, some of the sites require more than one visit. Due to the nature of the course, mostly taught in place, the active and careful participation of the students is highly required.

The common practice of writing a serious book, rooted on solid facts, and blossoming out into the author's personal deductions as to character and motives, is a monstrous injustice—the more authori- tative the style, the worse the crime—for who can judge the character and motives of even a contem- porary ? Besides, such works stand self-condemned, since the serious books and articles on Sandro Botti- celli, written during the past twenty years, prove beyond a doubt {a) That he was a deeply religious man, permeated with the rigorism of Savonarola, and groaning over the sins of Florence ; That he a (J?) was semi-pagan ; (r) That he was a philosopher, who despaired of reconciling Christianity with classicalism ; 5 6 Preface {d) That he was an ignorant person, who knew but little of those classical subjects which he took from the poems of Lorenzo and Politian ; ((?)
