And to do so at a research institute founded more than a hundred years ago? This research report presents the projects, activities and achievements of the Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florenz (KHI) and its international community over the last three years. It demonstrates the manifold ways in which the Institute is taking part in the shaping of the future of art history, from Bildwissenschaft, the study of visual culture and the materiality or biographies of objects, to postcolonial approaches and transcultural or global art histories. Whereas the narrative report may be itself the best witness of the intellectual creativity and spirit of collaboration which pervades the single projects or programs, a few lines about the early history of the Institute may be added. When the Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florenz was founded in 1897, there was no need to explain why an institution primarily devoted to the study of the history of art of the Mid- dle Ages and the Renaissance should open its doors in Italy and, more specifically, in the center of Tuscany. Indeed, this decision was taken neither by the German nor by the Italian cultural authorities; it was instead a wish expressed in 1893 by the international community of scholars united in Nuremberg for the second International Congress of Art History. This fact demonstrates how the foundation of the Institute was the result of a complex political and academic scenario: informally founded in the 1880s by a group of scholars with modest means (Schmarsow and his students, Warburg and Friedländer among them) and molded on the model of the German archeological institutes in

  • Overview of Production & Supply Chain Management in Agro Processing Industry
    ZENITH International Journal of Business Economics & Management Research Vol.2 Issue 2, February 2012, ISSN 2249 8826 Online available at http://zenithresearch.org.in/ OVERVIEW OF PRODUCTION & SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT IN AGRO PROCESSING INDUSTRY (WINE INDUSTRY) J S KADAM*; JAYSHRI J KADAM** *Assistant Professor, I B M R D Ahmednagar, Maharashtra. **Assistant Professor, I B M R D Ahmednagar, Maharashtra. ABSTRACT This paper reviews the recent Indian wine industry in terms of the area, production and marketing of wines in the country. Approximately 38 wineries are presently operating in the country with a total production of 6.2 million liters annually. Maharashtra is leading among the states with 36 wineries and 5.4 million liter production. Apart from this, 72,000 wine cases are imported mainly by ITDC, Sansula, Brindco, E & J Gallo and other private companies. At present 7,62,000 wine cases are sold every year, which includes 46,000 cases of sparkling wines Agro processing is a large sector that covers activities such as agriculture, horticulture, and plantation. It also includes other industries that use agriculture inputs for manufacturing of edible products. Agro processing Industry is one such major player in Agro processing sector. Greater delegation and competitiveness in agro based industries require new forms of co-ordination between farmers and other agencies to increase quantity within catchment area. [2,3]. KEYWORDS: Agro, Agro processing, supply chain Management, production, Wine Grapes. ______________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Historically, grapevine is grown mostly for wine making in the world over. In India on the contrary remarkable success has been achieved in table grape production and yield levels of fresh grapes are among the highest in the world.

ABSTRACT This thesis examines a group of terracotta sculptures attributed to an artist known as the Master of the Unruly Children. The name of this artist was coined by Wilhelm von Bode, on the occasion of his first grouping seven works featuring animated infants in Berlin and London in 1890. Due to the distinctive characteristics of his work, this personality has become a mainstay of scholarship in Renaissance sculpture which has focused on identifying the anonymous artist, despite the physical evidence which suggests the involvement of several hands. Chapter One will examine the historiography in connoisseurship from the late nineteenth century to the present and will explore the idea of the scholarly “construction” of artistic identity and issues of value and innovation that are bound up with the attribution of these works.

The essential historical background and the key developments in the From history of wine through the ages are outlined in this compact, engag- ing, easy-to-read and well-illustrated text, with lists of top vintages. For thousands of years wine mixed with water was the safe drink. It was a key ingredient of medications. The antiseptic properties of the N e o l i t h i c T i m e s alcohol it contains saved lives. Wine was associated with many reli- gious rituals, some of which survive today. The story of wine involves scientists like Hippocrates of Kos, to Zaccharia Razi, Isaac Newton (albeit indirectly), Louis Pasteur, and many others.

  • Wine Grape-Cultivation Wine Making and Improvement of Wine Quality
    1 2 WINE GRAPE-CULTIVATION WINE MAKING AND IMPROVEMENT OF WINE QUALITY Dr. S.D. SHIKHAMANY Vice-Chancellor and Dr. B. SRINIVASULU Controller of Examinations Andhra Pradesh Horticultural University Published by ANDHRA PRADESH HORTICULTURAL UNIVERSITY Venkataramannagudem, West Godavari District – 534 101 (A.P) 3 4 WINE GRAPE - CULTIVATION, WINE MAKING AND IMPROVEMENT OF WINE QUALITY INTRODUCTION Historically, grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) is grown mostly for wine making in the world over. In India on the contrary remarkable success has been achieved in table grape production and yield levels of fresh grapes are among the highest in the world. At present in India grape is grown over an area of 60,000 ha with an annual production of 1.6 million tonnes. Wine has been made in India for as many as 5,000 years. It was the early European travellers to the courts of the Mughal emperors Akbar, Jehangir and Shah Jehan in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries A.D. who reported tasting wines from the royal vineyards. Both red (Kandhari) and white wines (Bhokri, Fakdi, Sahebi etc.) were produced. Under British influence in the nineteenth century, vineyards were established in Kashmir and at Baramati in Maharashtra and a number of Indian wines were exhibited and favourably received by visitors to the Great Calcutta Exhibition of 1884. However, Indian vineyards were totally destroyed by unknown reasons in the 1890s. Grapes are unique among fruits. Ripe, they contain sufficient sugar and an appropriate amount of acid so that when they ferment enough alcohol is produced to make a palatable wine that is protected against imminent spoilage.

    Portrait of a Lady. From the Painting, possibly by Verrocchio, in the Poldi Museum at Milan. THE FLORENTINE PAINTERS OF THE RENAISSANCE WITH AN INDEX TO THEIR WORKS BY BERNHARD BERENSON AUTHOR OF “VENETIAN PAINTERS OF THE RENAISSANCE,” “LORENZO LOTTO,” “CENTRAL ITALIAN PAINTERS OF THE RENAISSANCE” THIRD EDITION, REVISED AND ENLARGED G. P. PUTNAM’S SONS NEW YORK AND LONDON The Knickerbocker Press COPYRIGHT, 1896 BY G. P. PUTNAM’S SONS Entered at Stationers’ Hall, London COPYRIGHT, 1909 BY G. P. PUTNAM’S SONS (For revised edition) Made in the United States of America iiiPREFACE TO THIRD EDITION Years have passed since the second edition of this book. But as most of this time has been taken up with the writing of my “Drawings of the Florentine Painters,” it has, in a sense, been spent in preparing me to make this new edition. Indeed, it is to that bigger work that I must refer the student who may wish to have the reasons for some of my attributions. There, for instance, he will find the intricate Carli question treated quite as fully as it deserves. Jacopo del Sellajo is inserted here for the first time. Ample accounts of this frequently entertaining tenth-rate painter may be found in articles by Hans Makowsky, Mary Logan, and Herbert Horne. The most important event of the last ten years, in the study of Italian art, has been the rediscovery of an all but forgotten great master,iv Pietro Cavallini. The study of his fresco at S. Cecilia in Rome, and of the other works that readily group themselves with it, has illuminated with an unhoped-for light the problem of Giotto’s origin and development.
