Andrew W. Mellon Collection 1937.1.1 ENTRY The painting shows the Madonna seated frontally on an elaborate, curved, two-tier, wooden throne of circular plan.[1] She is supporting the blessing Christ child on her left arm according to the iconographic tradition of the Hodegetria.[2] Mary is wearing a red mantle over an azure dress. The child is dressed in a salmon-colored tunic and blue mantle; he holds a red scroll in his left hand, supporting it on his lap.[3] In the upper corners of the panel, at the height of the Virgin’s head, two medallions contain busts of two archangels [fig. 1] [fig. 2], with their garments surmounted by loroi and with scepters and spheres in their hands.[4] It was Bernard Berenson (1921) who recognized the common authorship of this work and Enthroned Madonna and Child and who concluded—though admitting he had no specialized knowledge of art of this cultural area—that they were probably works executed in Constantinople around 1200.[5] These conclusions retain their authority and continue to stir debate.

Though clairned to have existed ab antiquo, these imperial privileges in fact have their origin in the late sixteenth century and bear the characteristics of western Latin ecclesial and political thought.

Diesen Ruf begründete er durch sein be- kanntestes Werk, in dem er seine bis nach Nordafghanistan eingesammelten Eindrücke verschriftlichte (The Road to Oxiana. London 1937). Doch führ- ten ihn seine „Expeditionen“ – getrieben von wissenschaftlicher Neugierde und der Lust am Reisen – in den 1920er Jahren noch in andere, Westeuropa näher liegende Gefilde. Der Berg Athos und seine Klöster zählten als Region der (orthodoxen) Kontemplation und der Wallfahrt spätestens seit dem 19. Jahrhunderts zu den Sehnsuchtsorten der Reisenden, wobei sie die pittoreske Halbinsel aus unterschiedlichen Gründen betraten und aus mannigfaltigen Blickwinkeln wahrnahmen: Die Weltabgeschiedenheit faszinierte, die lange Zeit intak- ten Naturräume konnten als eine Projektionsfläche für Fortschrittsskeptiker dienen und die reichen Schätze der Klosterarchive riefen Wissenschaftler aus unterschiedlichen Nationen auf den Plan, um ungehobene Schätze zu sichten und abzulichten.

  • The Intellectual Context of Clement Greenberg’S ‘Byzantine Parallels’
    What could have been and never was: the intellectual context of Clement Greenberg’s ‘Byzantine Parallels’ Jessamine Batario When presented with the observation that a painting by Barnett Newman looks like a Byzantine mosaic, Donald Judd replied, ‘A lot of things look alike, but they’re not necessarily very much alike.’1 Judd responded to what he likely viewed as a truism – the assertion that modern art looks like Byzantine art – with a truism of his own. Visual resemblance does not indicate ontological equivalence. In this instance, Judd precludes further discussion with his interviewer on the topic. Yet the comparative approach, especially pertaining to the relationship between medieval and modern, has found renewed interest amongst contemporary art historians. By virtue of their specialized training, many scholars who transgress the boundaries of conventional periodization tend to be pre- or early modernists.2 A perspective from the modernist side of the border comes from Clement Greenberg in his essay, ‘Byzantine Parallels,’ written in 1958.3 Prior to Judd’s dismissal of the Byzantine-modern connection, Greenberg reached the same conclusion. But if things that look alike are not alike after all, if the relationship between the two winds up in a pseudomorphic cul-de-sac, then why expend the effort to make the association in the first place? For Greenberg, the comparative approach was a defensive tactic meant to legitimize modern abstraction in the face of criticism leveled specifically by art historians. An account of the intellectual history surrounding ‘Byzantine Parallels’ not only reveals Greenberg’s unrealized investment in such a defence, but also the ways in which the study of Byzantine art history in the early twentieth century was intertwined with modernist discourse.

The most spectacular of them is a novel by Rose Macaulay, Towers of Trebizond. Dąbrowska wonders whether it is adequate to the Trebizondian past or whether it is a projection of the writer. She compares Macaulay’s novel with William Butler Yeats’s poems on Byzantium which excited the imagination of readers but were not meant to draw their attention to the Byzantine past.
