April 2019 HANDOUTS ZU EINZELNEN THEMEN (Auswahl) Dominican Church The Dominican Church is an early Baroque parish church in the historic center of Vienna. It is the third church built on the same site in the course of time. The first church on this site was built in 1237 by the newly arrived Dominicans on a parcel of land allotted by the duke Leopold VI. This church was heavily damaged during the first siege of Vienna by the Turkish army in 1529. In 1631 the Dominicans started to build a new oblong church with a dome, following the plan of Jacopo Tencala. The master builders were Jacopo Spacio, Cipriano Biasino and Antonio Canevalle. They introduced to Vienna the Baroque style of Italy. The first stone was laid by emperor Ferdinand II on 29 May 1631. The structural work was finished in 1634. The church was consecrated on 1 October 1634. Between 1666-1674 facade and dome was finished. The impressive facade was built in the Roman style with dominant columns, supporting the cornice. Its architecture goes back to early Baroque churches in Rome, that in turn, rely on the facade of the Dominican church Santa Maria Novella in Florence. On top of the facade is a large rectangular gable with a dormer window, crowned by a pediment. The church consists of a long central nave, flanked by three side chapels on each side.

It is rather trying to discuss the relation of different buildings of their same type and their relation to their context. The intention is to look at historic architecture, with a contemporary gaze, to extract the potential for a contem- porary project. In this way this analysis is following the Viennese tradition of the Strukturanalyse - interpretation beco- mes an act of production.1 The analysis of Austrian Classical Baroque, through the reading of buildings of the Italian Renaissance, is therefore an act of speculation. The chosen examples are not trying to delineate a stylistic genealogy of a linear historic process but aim at illustrating a general hypothesis.

Architect Author's Orcid number:0000-0001-5476-1698 West Pomeranian University of Technology in Szczecin Faculty of Civil Engineering and Architecture Department of History and Theory of Architecture ABSTRACT The surprising similarity between decorative motifs found in Rome, Versailles, Warsaw, Berlin, Vienna and Szczecin is worth taking a closer look at to see how they relate. The popularity of the iconographic motif depicting Fames blowing on trumpets grew significantly during the Baroque period. It was because of its visual attractiveness and explicitness. This motive was a clear sign of the founder's prestige. The sources of the formal similarities between the presented examples are discussed in this article. Key words: baroque, cartouche, iconographic motif, Fame, engraving. STRESZCZENIE Zaskakujące podobieństwo między motywami dekoracyjnymi spotykanymi w Rzymie, Wersalu, Warszawie, Berlinie, Wiedniu i Szczecinie stało się powodem podjęcia poszukiwań ich wzajemnych relacji. Popularność motywu ikonograficznego, przedstawiającego Sławy dmące w trąby, wzrosła znacząco w okresie baroku. Wynikała ona z jego wizualnej atrakcyjności i jednoznaczności. Motyw ten stanowił bowiem dobitną oznakę prestiżu fundatora. Źródła podobieństw formalnych między prezentowanymi przykładami rozważa niniejszy artykuł.
