Michiulis December 2016 The thesis of Diana L. Michiulis is approved: ___________________________________ _____________________ Dr. Jean-Luc Bordeaux Date ___________________________________ _____________________ Dr. David Leitch Date ___________________________________ _____________________ Dr. Margaret Shiffrar, Chair Date California State University, Northridge ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to convey my deepest, sincere gratitude to my Thesis Committee Chair, Dr. Margaret Shiffrar, for all of her guidance, insights, patience, and encourage- ments. A massive "merci beaucoup" to Dr. Jean-Luc Bordeaux, without whom completion of my Master’s degree thesis would never have been fulfilled. It was through Dr. Bordeaux’s leadership, patience, as well as his tremendous knowledge of Renaissance art, Mannerist art, and museum art collections that I was able to achieve this ultimate goal in spite of numerous obstacles. My most heart-felt, gigantic appreciation to Dr. David Leitch, for his leadership, patience, innovative ideas, vast knowledge of political-theory, as well as political science at the intersection of aesthetic theory. Thank you also to Dr. Owen Doonan, for his amazing assistance with aesthetic theory and classical mythology. I am very grateful as well to Dr. Mario Ontiveros, for his advice, passion, and incredible knowledge of political art and art theory. And many thanks to Dr. Peri Klemm, for her counsel and spectacular help with the role of "spectacle" in art history. -
This Raphael Is for Real
This Raphael is for real In the pinks: The National's Madonna. Photo: National Gallery, London For the next three months, Raphael's Madonna of the Pinks, acquired in March by the National Gallery for £22m, can be seen in our new exhibition Raphael: From Urbino to Rome, alongside 37 other paintings by the young artist. This provides an unequalled opportunity to examine the claims by Professor James Beck, reported in yesterday's Times, that this painting is not by Raphael. When a painting is as expensive as Madonna of the Pinks, it is to be expected that the gallery's decision to acquire it should be properly scrutinised. But the questions asked of the picture need to be the right ones. One person's opinion, however vociferously expressed, isn't sufficient reason to doubt a picture's authenticity. The story of the rediscovery of the painting is well known. Dr Nicholas Penny, then working at the National Gallery and the author of a major monograph on Raphael, noticed the picture on a visit to Alnwick in 1991. It had long been regarded as the best surviving copy of a lost composition by Raphael; no art historian believed it was by Raphael himself. But Penny thought it worth borrowing for examination in the gallery's scientific department. By the early 1990s, the National Gallery had recognised that a connoisseur's judgment needs to be backed up by science. Only by examining the way Raphael's painting was made could we abandon the idea that the picture was a copy. Penny found that a remarkable free drawing, very like many of Raphael's works on paper, lay under the paint. -
An Examination of a Seventeenth- Century Copy of Raphael’S Holy Family, C.1518
Uncovering the Original: An Examination of a Seventeenth- Century copy of Raphael’s Holy Family, c.1518. Annie Cornwell, Postgraduate in the Conservation of Easel Paintings Amalie Juel, MA Art History Uncovering the Original: An Examination of a 17th-Century copy of Raphael’s The Holy Family, c. 1518, The Prado Madrid. Introduction to The Project: This report has been written as part of the annual project Conservation and Art Historical Analysis, presented by the Sackler Research Forum at the Courtauld Institute of Art. Seeking to encourage collaboration between art historians and conservators, the scheme brings together two students - one from postgraduate art history and the other from easel paintings conservation - to complete an in-depth research project on a single piece of art. By doing so, the project allows a multifaceted approach combining historical research with technical analysis and, in this case, conservation treatment of the work in question. Focusing on the painting as a physical object with a material history, the project shows the value of combining art history with the more scientific aspects of the field of conservation. The focus of this project is a painting of the Virgin and Child with Saints Anne and John - a copy of Raphael’s Holy Family from the Prado - of unknown artist and date. It is owned by St Patrick’s Catholic Church in Wapping, where it had been recently found in a cupboard underneath the stairs. It came into the Courtauld Conservation Department to be treated by Annie Cornwell in November 2015, at which point it was in quite poor condition. -

A Discovery in the Kupferstich-Kabinett in Dresden* __________________________________________________________________________ In the exhibition “Raffael – Macht der Bilder. Die Tapisserien und ihre Wirkung” in the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister, Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, (6 July - 30 August 2020), six tapestries after the famous Raphael Cartoons - now in the Victoria & Albert Museum - were exhibited for the first time after long and spectacular restoration. Drawings, engravings and sculptures from the holdings of the Dresden State Art Collections as well as from international collections introduced the visitor to the history of the creation of the tapestries and their reception, which experienced a Europe-wide renaissance in the 19th century.1 Also on display were two large-format charcoal drawings after Raphael's cartoons “The Miraculous Draught of Fishes” and “The Death of Ananias”. The copies had been rediscovered “rolled up” in the Kupferstich-Kabinett Dresden on the occasion of the preparations for the tapestry exhibition, together with 13 other detailed studies. -

The Young Talent in Italy
Originalveröffentlichung in: Jonckheere, Koenraad (Hrsg.): Michiel Coxcie, 1499 - 1592, and the giants of his age : [...on the occasion of the exhibition "Michiel Coxcie: the Flemish Raphael", M - Museum Leuven, 31 October 2013 - 23 February 2014], London 2013, S. 50-63 und 198-204 Eckhard Leuschner THE YOUNG TALENT IN ITALY 4U ichiel Coxcie appears to have been in Italy between about 1530 and a.539.1 With just two exceptions (see below), no contemporary archival documentation relating to this phase of his career has so far been published. Giorgio Vasari mentions that he met Coxcie in Rome in M1532,2 and the surviving paintings, drawings and prints indicate that that is where he spent almost all his time in Italy. As far as the art history of Rome in the Cinquecento is concerned, the 1530s may well be the least studied decade of the century. 3 That is partly due to the political events of the previous years, especially the Sack of Rome in 1527 and its aftermath. When the troops of Emperor Charles V stripped the city of its treasures and political importance, they also weakened the finances of local patrons and the demand for art in general. However, the onset of the Reformation in the North had made itself felt even before then, and the number of works of art commissioned and produced in Rome had been in decline since the early 1520s.4 Although the city ’s artistic life never came to a complete standstill (not even during or immediately after the sack), the scarcity of information on artists active in Rome around 1530 speaks for itself. -
Paul Barlow Imagining Intimacy
J434 – 01-Barlow 24/3/05 1:06 pm Page 15 View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Northumbria Research Link Paul Barlow Imagining Intimacy: Rhetoric, Love and the Loss of Raphael This essay is concerned with intimacy in nineteenth-century art, in particular about an imagined kind of intimacy with the most admired of all artists – Raphael. I will try to demonstrate that this preoccupation with intimacy was a distinctive phenomenon of the period, but will concentrate in particular on three pictures about the process of painting emotional intimacy, all of which are connected to the figure of Raphael. Raphael was certainly the artist who was most closely associated with this capacity to ‘infuse’ intimacy into his art. As his biographers Crowe and Cavalcaselle wrote in 1882, Raphael! At the mere whisper of the magic name, our whole being seems spell-bound. Wonder, delight and awe, take possession of our souls, and throw us into a whirl of contending emotions … [He] infused into his creations not only his own but that universal spirit which touches each spectator as if it were stirring a part of his own being. He becomes familiar and an object of fondness to us because he moves by turns every fibre of our hearts … His versatility of means, and his power of rendering are all so varied and so true, they speak so straightforwardly to us, that we are always in commune with him.1 It is this particular ‘Raphaelite’ intimacy that I shall be exploring here, within the wider context of the transformations of History Painting in the period. -

Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-13150-7 — Raphael and the Redefinition of Art in Renaissance Italy Robert Williams Frontmatter More Information i RAPHAEL AND THE REDEFINITION OF ART IN RENAISSANCE ITALY S Raphael was one of the most important artists of the Italian Renaissance and one of the most important and inl uential in the entire history of art. His prac- tice of “synthetic” or “critical” imitation became a model of creative method; his engagement with the principle of decorum revealed its deeper expressive and philosophical signii cance, and the operation of his workshop helped to redei ne the nature of the work that artists do. Robert Williams draws upon the history of literature, philosophy, and religion, as well as upon economic history, to support his detailed and illuminating accounts of Raphael’s major works. His analyses serve as the foundation for a set of hypotheses about the aims and aspirations of Italian Renaissance art in general and the nature of art- historical inquiry. Robert Williams is Professor of the History of Art at the University of California, Santa Barbara. He received his Ph.D. at Princeton, under the supervision of John Shearman, and is the author of Art, Theory, and Culture in Sixteenth- Century Italy: From Techne to Metatechne (Cambridge, 1997) and Art Theory: An Historical Introduction, which has been translated into Chinese and Korean. Among his recent publications is Michael Baxandall, Vision, and the Work of Words , co- edited with Peter Mack of the University of Warwick. © in this web service
