  • Destructive Pigment Characterization
    Looking for common fingerprints in Leonardo’s pupils through non- destructive pigment characterization LETIZIA BONIZZONI 1*, MARCO GARGANO 1, NICOLA LUDWIG 1, MARCO MARTINI 2, ANNA GALLI 2, 3 1 Dipartimento di Fisica, Università degli Studi di Milano, , via Celoria 16, 20133 Milano (Italy) 2 Dipartimento di Scienza dei Materiali, Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca, via R. Cozzi 55, 20125 Milano (Italy) and INFN, Sezione Milano-Bicocca. 3 CNR-IFN,piazza L. da Vinci, 20132 Milano (Italy). *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Non-invasive, portable analytical techniques are becoming increasingly widespread for the study and conservation in the field of cultural heritage, proving that a good data handling, supported by a deep knowledge of the techniques themselves, and the right synergy can give surprisingly substantial results when using portable but reliable instrumentation. In this work, pigment characterization was carried out on twenty-one Leonardesque paintings applying in situ XRF and FORS analyses. In-depth data evaluation allowed to get information on the colour palette and the painting technique of the different authors and workshops. Particular attention was paid to green pigments (for which a deeper study of possible pigments and alterations was performed with FORS analyses), flesh tones (for which a comparison with available data from cross sections was made) and ground preparation. Keywords pXRF, FORS, pigments, Leonardo’s workshop, Italian Renaissance INTRODUCTION “Tristo è quel discepolo che non ava[n]za il suo maestro” - Poor is the pupil who does not surpass his master - Leonardo da Vinci, Libro di Pittura, about 1493 1. 1 The influence of Leonardo on his peers during his activity in Milan (1482-1499 and 1506/8-1512/3) has been deep and a multitude of painters is grouped under the name of leonardeschi , but it is necessary to distinguish between his direct pupils and those who adopted his manner, fascinated by his works even outside his circle.

  • Breve Storia Di Una Comunità Dalle Radici Profonde. Quarto Oggiaro È
    Quarto Oggiaro: Breve storia di una Comunità dalle radici profonde. Quarto Oggiaro è un quartiere di Milano che porta con se ancora una cattiva nomea dagli anni ’80, dovuta al degrado e alle fragilità socio-economiche che hanno contraddistinto non solo la storia del dopoguerra del nostro quartiere ma l’intera narrazione delle periferie italiane. Molti conoscono la storia di Quarto come di un quartiere popolare sorto, a partire dal 1956, per accogliere la migrazione interna proveniente dal sud, impiantando palazzi di edilizia popolare su terreni che componevano la cintura agricola della città di Milano. Di fatto questa è la genesi del quartiere, come la conoscono tutti, pochi conoscono invece la fortissima identità storica di questo luogo e la sua strategica connessione con la città di Milano. In questo articolo proverò a tracciare il filo d’Arianna che unisce la storia del nostro quartiere con quella di Milano, della Lombardia e della penisola Italiana. Quarto Oggiaro è un toponimo abbastanza chiaro, con Quarto si indica le miglia romane dal centro città mentre si è poco discusso sul termine Oggiaro/Uglè/Uglerio così come è riportato dalle fonti storiche. Un analisi dei toponomi vicini a Quarto e della sua composizione ambientale ci proietta direttamente nel VI secolo A.C, quando secondo il cronista Romano Tito Livio, il principe celtico Belloveso a capo di una coalizione di popoli varca le Alpi, sconfigge gli Etruschi nella pianura Padana e fonda la sua città, su una collina che si ergeva su una vasta terra di paludi e acquitrini: la chiamerà Medh-lan , cioè “la terra sopra le acque” , che con il tempo prenderà il nome di Mesiolanum, Mediolanum e infine Milano.

    Towards the Expo 2015 1 Towards the Expo 2015 An Expo is a large international event that aims at the enrichment of human knowledge and technological progress, to promote cooperation and dialogue with international press. Given the importance of these major events, for almost a century now the need has arisen to standardise some aspects, such as duration, frequency and above all quality. The Bureau International des Expositions (BIE), established in 1928 with the International Convention of Paris is the international organisation responsible for establishing the parameters that control the Expo; the objective of the BIE is therefore to guarantee continuity of these events and maintain the level of international prestige earned over the years, selecting venues and dates and organising new Expos. The members of this organisation, with official headquarters in Paris, are all the States that have signed the convention. There are two different types of Expo: "Universal Expositions" (World Expo) and "International Expositions" (International Expo). The Expositions in the first category involve topics that concern the whole of humanity and therefore are global in nature. States, International Organisations, NGOs, Companies and other institutions can participate in these events, there is no limit to the size of the Exposition venue, and participants arrange the set-up of their own pavilions. Since 1996 these events have lasted six months and take place every five years. A Universal Expo will take place in Milan in 2015. 122 On the other hand the “International Expositions" take place in the period between the two Universal Expos and last for three months. The possible participants are the same as for a Universal Expo while the theme is more specific.
