Destructive Pigment Characterization
Looking for common fingerprints in Leonardo’s pupils through non- destructive pigment characterization LETIZIA BONIZZONI 1*, MARCO GARGANO 1, NICOLA LUDWIG 1, MARCO MARTINI 2, ANNA GALLI 2, 3 1 Dipartimento di Fisica, Università degli Studi di Milano, , via Celoria 16, 20133 Milano (Italy) 2 Dipartimento di Scienza dei Materiali, Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca, via R. Cozzi 55, 20125 Milano (Italy) and INFN, Sezione Milano-Bicocca. 3 CNR-IFN,piazza L. da Vinci, 20132 Milano (Italy). *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Non-invasive, portable analytical techniques are becoming increasingly widespread for the study and conservation in the field of cultural heritage, proving that a good data handling, supported by a deep knowledge of the techniques themselves, and the right synergy can give surprisingly substantial results when using portable but reliable instrumentation. In this work, pigment characterization was carried out on twenty-one Leonardesque paintings applying in situ XRF and FORS analyses. In-depth data evaluation allowed to get information on the colour palette and the painting technique of the different authors and workshops. Particular attention was paid to green pigments (for which a deeper study of possible pigments and alterations was performed with FORS analyses), flesh tones (for which a comparison with available data from cross sections was made) and ground preparation. Keywords pXRF, FORS, pigments, Leonardo’s workshop, Italian Renaissance INTRODUCTION “Tristo è quel discepolo che non ava[n]za il suo maestro” - Poor is the pupil who does not surpass his master - Leonardo da Vinci, Libro di Pittura, about 1493 1. 1 The influence of Leonardo on his peers during his activity in Milan (1482-1499 and 1506/8-1512/3) has been deep and a multitude of painters is grouped under the name of leonardeschi , but it is necessary to distinguish between his direct pupils and those who adopted his manner, fascinated by his works even outside his circle. -

Il testo era incentrato sul valore della scultura ma anche del Castello Sforzesco. The address focused on the sculpture’s value but also sull’importanza di accogliere una così importante opera per una città come Mi- on the importance for a city like Milan – which had emerged from the ruins lano, uscita dalle rovine della guerra e avviata a un’opera di ricostruzione non of war and set out on a project of reconstruction regarding not only the city’s solo edilizia ma anche economica e culturale. -
Lezione 12 – Da Montenapoleone in Duomo (Dia 1) Lasciamo Ancora Una Volta Montenapoleone Per Entrare a Sinistra in Via S
Lezione 12 – Da Montenapoleone in Duomo (Dia 1) Lasciamo ancora una volta Montenapoleone per entrare a sinistra in via S. Andrea dove al n, 6 troviamo (Dia 2) il PALAZZO MORANDO ATTENDOLO BOLOGNINI, al cui interno si trovano la COLLEZIONE COSTUME MODA E IMMAGINE e il MUSEO DI MILANO. Pare che la contessa Bolognini fosse addirittura l'amante del re Umberto I; Edificato nel ‘500, il Palazzo fu residenza di alcune tra le più importanti famiglie milanesi, tra cui i Villa che nel corso del XVIII secolo fecero eseguire sull’edificio numerosi interventi, conferendogli l’impronta rococò, che tuttora lo caratterizza. Nei primi anni del XX secolo la dimora, che allora apparteneva alla famiglia De Cristoforis, fu acquistata dai coniugi Gian Giacomo Morando Bolognini e Lydia Caprara Morando Bolognini, che riempirono le sale con un’ampia collezione di arredi e dipinti. (dia 3) La Contessa Lydia, rimasta vedova nel 1919, morì senza eredi nel 1945 e nel testamento volle donare la sua residenza milanese, con tutto il contenuto, al Comune di Milano, che secondo l’uso dell’epoca smembrò le collezioni per unirle a quelle di altri edifici comunali. Nel 1958, dopo un lungo restauro dovuto agli ingenti danni subiti dall’edificio durante la II Guerra Mondiale, Palazzo Morando aprì le sue porte al pubblico col nome di “Museo di Milano”. Al piano nobile fu collocata la collezione Beretta (tuttora esposta), una ricca raccolta di dipinti e disegni dedicata all’iconografia urbanistica e architettonica di Milano, anch’essa divenuta di proprietà del Comune grazie a una donazione. Al pian terreno invece trovò sistemazione nel 1963 il Museo della Guerra e della Resistenza, poi denominato Museo di Storia Contemporanea. -

PULSATION in ARCHITECTURE Eric Goldemberg
JR0235_ BR Full color, revolutionary work on digital architecture NEW! PULSATION IN ARCHITECTURE Eric Goldemberg Pulsation in Architecture makes a very strong case, as the title suggests, for not only movement in archi- tecture—whirling, swirling, curling and more—but for a movement in architecture as well. Eric Goldemberg’s se- lection of architects and their works captures a constel- lation of architectural ideas hurtling along the vector of digital innovation like proton beams in the Large Hadron Collider. While many of these designers are quite well known in their own right, Goldemberg’s compilation suggests greater global affinities than might otherwise be supposed. —Terence Riley, Architect Retail Price: $89.95 Special Promotional Price: $79.95 when Ordered Direct from J. Ross Publishing Order online at WWW.JROSSPUB.COM or call 954-727-9333 ext.2 pulsation in architecture Pulsation in Architecture highlights the role of digital de- sign as the catalyst for a new spatial sensibility related to rhythmic perception. It proposes a novel critical reception of computational architecture based on the ability of digi- tal design to move beyond mere instrumentality, and to engage with core aspects of the discipline: the generative engine of digital architecture reinvigorates a discourse of part-to-whole relationships through the lens of rhythmic affect. There is a paradigm shift in spatial perception due to the intense use of computational techniques and the capacity to morph massive amounts of data in spatial patterns; rhythm plays a pivotal role in the articulation of the topology of buildings, generating the atmospheric character that induces moods and throbbing sensations in space. -
