  • The Business Organisation of the Bourbon Factories
    The Business Organization of the Bourbon Factories: Mastercraftsmen, Crafts, and Families in the Capodimonte Porcelain Works and the Royal Factory at San Leucio Silvana Musella Guida Without exaggerating what was known as the “heroic age” of the reign of Charles of Bourbon of which José Joaquim de Montealegre was the undisputed doyen, and without considering the controversial developments of manufacturing in Campania, I should like to look again at manufacturing under the Bourbons and to offer a new point of view. Not only evaluating its development in terms of the products themselves, I will consider the company's organization and production strategies, points that are often overlooked, but which alone can account for any innovative capacity and the willingness of the new government to produce broader-ranging results.1 The two case studies presented here—the porcelain factory at Capodimonte (1740-1759) and the textile factory in San Leucio (1789-1860)—though from different time periods and promoted by different governments, should be considered sequentially precisely because of their ability to impose systemic innovations.2 The arrival of the new sovereign in the company of José Joaquin de Montealegre, led to an activism which would have a lasting effect.3 The former was au fait with economic policy strategy and the driving force of a great period of economic modernization, and his repercussions on the political, diplomatic and commercial levels provide 1 For Montealegre, cf. Raffaele Ajello, “La Parabola settecentesca,” in Il Settecento, edited by Giovanni Pugliese Carratelli (Naples, 1994), 7-79. For a synthesis on Bourbon factories, cf. Angela Carola Perrotti, “Le reali manifatture borboniche,” in Storia del Mezzogiorno (Naples, 1991), 649- 695.

  • The Corsini Collection: a Window on Renaissance Florence Exhibition Labels
    The Corsini Collection: A Window on Renaissance Florence Exhibition labels © Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki, 2017 Reproduction in part or in whole of this document is prohibited without express written permission. The Corsini Family Members of the Corsini family settled in Florence in the middle of the 13th century, attaining leading roles in government, the law, trade and banking. During that time, the Republic of Florence became one of the mercantile and financial centres in the Western world. Along with other leading families, the Corsini name was interwoven with that of the powerful Medici until 1737, when the Medici line came to an end. The Corsini family can also claim illustrious members within the Catholic Church, including their family saint, Andrea Corsini, three cardinals and Pope Clement XII. Filippo Corsini was created Count Palatine in 1371 by the Emperor Charles IV, and in 1348 Tommaso Corsini encouraged the foundation of the Studio Fiorentino, the University of Florence. The family’s history is interwoven with that of the city and its citizens‚ politically, culturally and intellectually. Between 1650 and 1728, the family constructed what is the principal baroque edifice in the city, and their remarkable collection of Renaissance and Baroque art remains on display in Palazzo Corsini today. The Corsini Collection: A Window on Renaissance Florence paints a rare glimpse of family life and loyalties, their devotion to the city, and their place within Florence’s magnificent cultural heritage. Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki is delighted that the Corsini family have generously allowed some of their treasures to travel so far from home.

  • Tommaso De Marchis by Helmut Hager - Biographical Dictionary of Italians - Volume 38 (1990)
    Tommaso de Marchis by Helmut Hager - Biographical Dictionary of Italians - Volume 38 (1990) He was born in Rome in 1693. His training as an architect took place at Carlo Francesco Bizzaccheri, to whom he remained closely linked (Missirini, 1823, pp. 225 s., Mallory, 1974, p. 28). The first works we know of him, through incisions, are ephemeral structures. These are the "lights" that he designed, commissioned by the association of the Ss. Crocefisso near S. Marcello, for the procession of the Holy Thursday of the Jubilee year 1725, and the decoration of a machine that the Archconfraternity of Our Lady of the Rosary S. Maria sopra Minerva used in the procession of the first Sunday of October in the same year (Pietrangeli, 1971). At the beginning of the third decade of the century, De Marchis participated in the survey and surveying campaign of the most important squares and areas of the city (Egger, 1931, Elling, 1975, page 541 No. 325). R therefore probable (Giuggioli, 1980, p.170 No. 204) that his career began at the Roads Court. He did not win any prizes in the Academy of St. Luca contests, a necessary condition for an architect of Roman origin to become "an academeque of merit"; nevertheless it was proposed as such by the "prince" Agostino Masucci in the congregation of 16 November.1738 and in that of November 15 of the following year, by Sebastiano Conca. 3 Jan. 1740 voted on the proposal and de Marchis was accepted with eleven votes in favor and five against (Archiv d Acc. di S.

  • Conservation of Stone Cladding on the Façade of Royal Palace in Caserta
    International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, Volume XL-5/W2, 2013 XXIV International CIPA Symposium, 2 – 6 September 2013, Strasbourg, France CONSERVATION OF STONE CLADDING ON THE FAÇADE OF ROYAL PALACE IN CASERTA I. Titomanlio a a Department of Architecture and Industrial Design, Second University of Naples, Aversa (CE), Italy ingrid.titomanlio @unina2.it KEY WORDS: Royal Palace in Caserta, stones cladding, façade, cultural heritage, non – structural elements, seismic risk ABSTRACT: The beauty of cultural heritage and monumental architecture, is often linked to their non-structural elements and decorative stones façades cladding. The collapse of these elements causes significant consequences that interest the social, the economic, the historical and the technical fields. Several regulatory documents and literature studies contain methods to address the question of relief and of the risk analysis and due to the non – structural stones security. Among the references are widespread international regulatory documents prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency of the United States by Applied Technology Council and California. In Italy there are some indications contained in the Norme Tecniche per le Costruzioni and the Direttiva del Presidente del Consiglio dei Ministri in 2007, finalize to the reduction of seismic risk assessment of cultural heritage. The paper, using normative references and scientific researches, allows to analyze on Royal Palace of Caserta the safety and the preservation of cultural heritage and the vulnerability of non-structural stones façade cladding. Using sophisticated equipments of Laboratory ARS of the Second University of Naples, it was possible to analyze the collapse of stone elements due to degradation caused by natural phenomena of deterioration (age of the building, type of materials, geometries , mode of fixing of the elements themselves).

  • Santa Maria in Trastevere
    A Building’s Images: Santa Maria in Trastevere Dale Kinney Images If only because it has an inside and an outside, a building cannot be grasped in a single view. To see it as a whole one must assemble images: the sensory impressions of a beholder moving through or around it (perceptual images), the objectified views of painters and photographers (pictorial images), the analytical graphics of architects (analytical images), and now, virtual simulacra derived from laser scans, photogrammetry, and other means of digital measurement and representation. These empirical images can be overlaid by abstract or symbolic ones: themes or metaphors imagined by the architect or patron (intended images); the image projected by contingent factors such as age, condition, and location (projected images); the collective image generated by the interaction of the building’s appearance with the norms and expectations of its users and beholders; the individual (but also collectively conditioned) “phenomenological” images posited by Gaston Bachelard (psychological images), and many more.1 In short, the topic of a building’s images is one of almost unlimited complexity, not to be encompassed in a brief essay. By way of confining it I will restrict my treatment to a single example: Santa Maria in Trastevere, a twelfth-century church basilica on the right bank of the Tiber River in Rome. I will focus on its intended, projected, and collective images in two key eras of its existence. Pictorial images, including those surviving inside the basilica and the representations of it by artist- architects in the 19th century, are considered in relation to the ephemeral images that are my principal subject and their role in constituting communal identities.

  • Corsini Library Collection
    THE CORSINI PROJE ct The prestigious drawing collection of the Fondo Corsini (Corsini Library Collection) - now preserved at the National Graphics Institute in Palazzo Poli at the Trevi Fountain - was created under the auspices of Neri Maria Corsini, a diplomat and man of culture born to a noble Florentine family. He was the grandson of Clement XII, who was pope from 1730 to 1740; in addition to their collection of prints and drawings, both uncle and nephew amassed a rich library, numerous paintings, and art of the past as well as works of their own times. To accommodate this large collection, the Corsini family acquired Palazzo Riario alla Lungara. The building was renovated and expanded by the Florentine architect Ferdinando Fuga, and soon became Rome’s largest private palazzo. The volumes containing the drawings and prints were stored, along with printed books, on the first floor of Palazzo Corsini, in the library the pope had given his nephew in 1733 after making him cardinal. The Florentine scholar Giovanni Gaetano Bottari was hired as librarian, and alongside Neri Maria he helped shape the library’s cultural framework, making it the great institution it remains to this day. The Corsini collection of drawings and prints continued to grow, but in 1883 Prince Tommaso Corsini decided to return to Florence. He sold the palazzo, donated the paintings to the state, and bequeathed the library to the Accademia dei Lincei, which was headquartered in the building. The works of art in the Corsini collection then became the core of the new National Gallery of Ancient Art, while the library holdings were incorporated with the library of the Accademia dei Lincei.

Epistemological Obstacles to the Analysis of Structures: Giovanni Bottari’s Aversion to a Mathematical Assessment of Saint-Peter’s Dome (1743) Pascal Dubourg Glatigny Visible faults in the dome of Saint Peter’s basilica in Rome had raised fears about the structure’s stability ever since its completion in 1593. The most extensively documented episode of this long history erupted in the early 1740s, a few years after Prospero Lambertini was elected Pope Benedict XIV. The debates over the causes of the cracks, the ensuing scientifi c analyses, and the adopted solutions are well known, due to the Memorie istoriche della gran cupola del Tempio vaticano , the magisterial treatise published in 1748 by Giovanni Poleni (1685–1761), the mathematician entrusted with the supervision of the restoration work.

  • Atrio E Porta Santaing.Rtf
    The Atrium of the Vatican Basilica When dealing with any aspects of the events surrounding the construction of Saint Peter's Basilica, it is certainly necessary to evaluate its architectural dimensions which are by far larger than those of any other fabbrica of its kind. In the specific case of the atrium, it is possible to note that its net surface corresponds to a tenth of the total surface of the basilica floor which is 16,039 square meters on a covered surface of 20,139 square meters. The historical events surrounding the creation of the basilica atrium, tied in turn to the broader topic of its enlargement, is a well-known subject, considering the numerous publications which have been printed on the subject. An important opportunity to re-examine this topic has been provided by recent restorations of the stuccoes on the portico that, as Antonio Nibby wrote, «in its vastness and magnificence can certainly rival any of the most splendid modern structures». The preservation restorations dealt with the entire architecture of the present atrium as a whole, dating back to the works of the first half of the 17th century, including the central hall and the two side halls, generally referred to as "Constantine's wing" and “Charlemagne's wing," the latter however created later during the papacy of Clement XI (Albani, 1700-1721). After the death of Pope Clement VIII (Aldobrandini, 1592-1605), the most suitable candidate to succeed him was Cardinal Cesare Baronio. However, although he obtained the greatest number of votes in the conclave that followed the Pope's death on March 3, 1605, he was not elected due to opposition by the pro-Spanish party.
