I have completed and filed the original term paper in art history in the Art Department office and I have given a copy to the course instructor. Course Number Year 0/tf I Yl~t1--~ Student signature Instructor signature ~a.~Adviser signature 1 Drawing Upon Themselves: Women's Self-Portraits in a Man's World A man can do well depending only upon himself and can brave public opinion; but a woman who has done well has only accomplished half her task; for what others think of her counts no less than what she in fact is (Radisch 441 ). As long as people who call themselves artists have depicted others, they have also created images of themselves. As far back as Hildegaard von Bingen in the twelfth century, and probably before, almost every artist or artisan who has picked up a pen, a brush, or a chisel has been concerned with the depiction of self. Male artists have had the ability to present themselves as they are, as subject and artist, without a division between the two. Women artists have historically traveled a slightly different, and considerably rougher path than their male counterparts.

  • The Nude Figure in Renaissance Art Thomas Martin
    19 The Nude Figure in Renaissance Art Thomas Martin The establishment of the nude as an independent and vital subject in post-antique western art occurred during the Renaissance and is, along with the use of perspective, one of the most important markers differentiating Renaissance art from medieval art. One factor driving these innovations was the desire to portray a world that conforms to visual reality, where objects decrease in size as they move away from the picture plane, and where human anatomy is rigorously understood. Just as Renaissance artists employed perspective to portray naturalistic spaces, so they also populated those spaces with proportional, anatomically accurate figures and, during the course of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, the occasions when those figures were depicted nude occurred more and more frequently. Naturalism, however, was but one motive for the increased use of the nude, and by the first half of the 1500s, the naked body had achieved a wider and more varied presence in art than had been the case in the Middle Ages or even in antiquity where, with few exceptions, its use was confined to male athletes, heroes, and divinities. This essay will focus on two issues: where is the nude used – i.e., what are its locations – and what are the meanings of its uses? As it is today, the body in the Renaissance was multivalent. European Christian society believed that as a cause of lust and sin, the body was fearful and needed to be covered up. Yet at the same time it was the form the Savior, Jesus Christ, took during his lifetime, and the Catholic Church taught that it is in our very own earthly bodies that, after the last trumpet, we will spend eternity either in bliss in Heaven or in despair in Hell.

  • Woodworking Traditio
    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “ Missing Page(s)” . If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image o f the page can be found in the adjacent frame. I f copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer o f a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • A Tradition of Craftsmen: the Dominy Craftsman of East Hampton
    Transcript of Lecture Delivered by Dean Failey on October 25, 1998 A Tradition of Craftsmen: The Dominy Craftsman of East Hampton East Hampton has secured a permanent and prominent role in the study of furniture-making in America because of the fortuitous survival of not only documentary written records concerning three generations of the Dominy family’s woodworking craft practice but also the remarkable existence of the actual shops where they worked and the tools with which they worked. Their specific detailed story will be told by Charles Hummel and it is not my intention to cover the same ground. Rather, I hope to place the Dominys in a broader context of a craft tradition specific to East Hampton and which attempts to explain why the furniture that was made in this community over a period of 150 years looks the way it does. The study of decorative arts and material culture today had progressed from an antiquarian approach that stressed a hierarchial, elitist and identification-oriented methodology to a more inclusive analysis which desires to encompass social, political, economic and even religious issues which might impact the objects, the craftsmen who produced them and even the consumers who bought them. The conclusions I have reached may conflict with or contradict some of the other presentations you have heard in this series but history, particularly social and cultural history, is comprised of many layers which lead scholars to a variety of interpretations. In my case, I have tried to let the objects speak for themself. The relative ease with which we travel today, not to mention our ability to span hundreds and even thousands of miles with telephones, faxes, radios and televisions, dulls our senses to what it meant to be living in East Hampton in 1650, 1750, or 1850.
