The restoration project, initiated in March 2017, included all the artworks and decorative elements in the Chapel, including Jacopo Pontormo's majestic altarpiece, a large-scale painting depicting the Deposition from the Cross (1525‒28). Enabled by a major donation to Friends of Florence from Kathe and John Dyson of New York, the project was approved by the Soprintendenza Archeologia Belle Arti e Paesaggio di Firenze, Pistoia, e Prato, entrusted to the restorer Daniele Rossi, and monitored by Daniele Rapino, the Pontormo’s Deposition after restoration. Soprintendenza officer responsible for the Santo Spirito neighborhood. The Capponi Chapel was designed by Filippo Brunelleschi for the Barbadori family around 1422.

In 1526, Capponi commissioned Capponi Chapel, Church of St. Felicita Pontormo to decorate it.

  • 21 CHAPTER I the Formation of the Missionary Gaspar's Youth The
    !21 CHAPTER I The Formation of the Missionary Gaspar’s Youth The Servant of God was born on January 6, 1786 and was baptized in the parochial church of San Martino ai Monti on the following day. On that occasion, he was given the names of the Holy Magi since the solemnity of the Epiphany was being celebrated. I received this information from the Servant of God himself during our familiar conversations. The Servant of God’s parents were Antonio Del Bufalo and Annunziata Quartieroni. I likewise learned from conversation with the father of the Servant of God as well as from him that at first Antonio was engaged in work in the fields but later, when his income was running short, he applied as a cook in service to the most excellent Altieri house. The Del Bufalos were upright people and were endowed sufficiently for their own maintenance as well as that of the family. They had two sons: one was named Luigi who married the upright young lady Paolina Castellini and were the parents of a daughter whose name was Luigia. The other son, our Servant of God. Luigi and Gaspar’s sister-in-law, as well as his father and mother, are now deceased. As far as I know, the aforementioned parents were full of faith, piety and other virtues made know to me not only by the Servant of God, honoring his father and mother, but also by Monsignor [Antonio] Santelli who was the confessor of his mother and a close friend of the Del Bufalo family.

  • A Handful of Images Is As Good As an Armful of Arguments
    John Murphy Critical Approaches to Art History Fall 05 Pozzo’s Perspective: Visual Hagiography in the Church of St. Ignatius, Rome The Order of the Society Jesus was among the foremost creators and commissioners of Counter-Reformation Baroque art. Founded in 1534 by St. Ignatius of Loyola, the Jesuits came to be regarded as one of the most potent forces of the Counter-Reformation, due at least in part to the order’s high visibility through their worldwide network of building projects. Part of art history’s continuing fascination with the Jesuits involves the controversial search for a “Jesuit Style” of art, an approach to image production that is immediately identifiable as Jesuitical. Though a thorough discussion of the Jesuit style is outside the limits of this paper, the Jesuit worldview (including the Jesuit perception of the role of art) is central to interpreting how artists were employed in constructing Jesuit self-identity. Nowhere is this process of identity-construction more apparent than in The Church of St. Ignatius in Rome, built to celebrate both Ignatius and the active ministry of his order throughout the globe. Andrea Pozzo’s monumental ceiling fresco, The Worldwide Mission of the Society of Jesus (fig. 1), painted in the central nave of the church, exhibits a typical Baroque-era complexity. The fresco is visually opulent, filled with swirling figures, illusionist architecture, and an intricate, allegory-based iconography. The image is certainly hagiographical—Ignatius is shown ascending to heaven on a cloud, surrounded by celestial figures and beckoned by the figure Christ himself—but is it an example of coercive Jesuit propaganda or of a sincere religiosity derived from Pozzo’s close personal 2 association with the Jesuit order? Pozzo’s fresco proves that the two motives are not mutually exclusive.

This October, we traveled to Rome with Jesuits from all over the world for the Society of Jesus’ 36th General Congregation (GC36). This historic meeting was the 36th time the global Society has come together since the first General Congregation in 1558, nearly two years after St. Ignatius died. General Congregations are always summoned upon the death or resignation of the Jesuits’ Superior General, and this year we came together to elect a Jesuit to succeed Fr. Adolfo Nicolás, SJ, who has faithfully served as Superior General since 2008. After prayerful consideration, we elected Fr. Arturo Sosa Abascal, SJ, a Jesuit priest from Venezuela. Father Sosa is warm, friendly, and down-to-earth, with a great sense of humor that puts people at ease. He has offered his many gifts to intellectual, educational, and social apostolates at all levels in service to the Gospel and the universal Church. One of his most impressive achievements came during his time as rector of la Universidad Católica del Táchira, where he helped the student body grow from 4,000 to 8,000 students and gave the university a strong social orientation to study border issues in Venezuela. The Jesuits in Venezuela have deep love and respect for Fr.

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY A COMPARISON OF NORMAN ARCHITECTURE IN THE KINGDOMS OF ENGLAND AND SICILY Mikito Muroya FALL 2014 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in History with honors in History Reviewed and approved* by the following: Kathryn Salzer Assistant Professor of History Thesis Supervisor Mike Milligan Senior Lecturer in History Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT This study offers a comparison of the differing architectural styles and forms in the Norman Kingdoms of Sicily and England, exploring what exactly differed, as well as attempting to determine why such differences exist in each area. In the Kingdom of England, the Normans largely imported their own forms from Normandy, incorporating little of the Anglo-Saxon architectural heritage. There are in fact examples of seemingly deliberate attempts to eliminate important Anglo-Saxon buildings and replace them with structures built along Norman lines. By contrast, in the Kingdom of Sicily, buildings erected after the arrival of the Normans feature a mix of styles, incorporating features of the earlier Islamic, Byzantine and local Italian Romanesque, as well as the Normans' own forms. It is difficult to say why such variance existed, but there are numerous possibilities. Some result from the way each state was formed: England had already existed as a kingdom when the Normans conquered the land and replaced the ruling class, while the Kingdom of Sicily was a creation of the Norman conquerors; furthermore, the length of time taken to complete the conquest contrasted greatly.

  • Eltham Palace: Its Chapels and Chaplains
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 83 1968 ELTHAM PALACE: ITS CHAPELS AND CHAPLAINS By H. J. PRAGNELL ELTHAM PALACE as we see it today is represented by a fifteenth- century Great Hall, stone and brick walls surrounding the moat, and a triple-arched stone bridge thought to have been rebuilt in the reign of Edward IV. The only pictorial record of the complete palace known to exist, the engraving by Peter Stent made about 1650, is inaccurate in some details and is in any case drawn from a considerable distance outside the moated area. It may well be that Stent never saw the palace and made his engraving from somebody else's drawing. Nonsuch Palace which was once thought to have little pictorial evidence surviving is rich in comparison with Eltham. We are fortunate, however, in possessing two plans of Eltham by John Thorpe which are thought to have been made about 1590 but may in fact be slightly later. Accounts for 1603-04 record payment for 'measuring' the plan of the house,1 whereas no such payment occurs in the accounts c. 1590 though the annual records of repair work are complete for this period. One plan covers the outer court, the other the moated area. Both have been carefully studied and were redrawn as a single plan for inclusion in Clapham and Godfrey's Famous Buildings and their Story, 1913. From the plan of the moated area it is possible to see the approximate shape and proportions of the Great Chapel as it existed in the sixteenth century. This plan will be referred to later in connection with the rebuilding of the chapel by order of Henry VIII.
