Full textAlthough childhood is "a universal anthropological conception" (E. Deschavanne, P.H. Tavoillot, Philosophie des âges de la vie), the French historian Philippe Ariès, in Centuries of Childhood: A Social History of Family Life (1962), proposed that the recognition of childhood as a distinct stage of life, what he calls the "sentiment de l'enfance," did not exist during the Middle Ages and early modern period, but was rather the invention of the 16th- and especially the 17th and 18th centuries. Disproved by historians, but still considered valid by some art historians, this theory is founded upon a study of pictorial representations of children. Images of children are numerous in Northern- and Central Italian Renaissance painting, but they require a new approach on how children were perceived and pictured. A precise analysis of these visual representations, of their genesis, condition, and their destination(s) is necessary. Such a study naturally finds its structure in the traditional "stages of life" and "periods of childhood" in use during the Renaissance. These categories are: infanzia (from birth to seven years old), puerizia (from seven to approximately twelve to fourteen years) and adolescenza (from twelve to fourteen), during all of which the child was in constant evolution. Beyond simply seeing children as decorative pictorial motifs, by exploring the genre of the work studied, its backstory, and also the age, the gender, or the social status of the child pictured, this tack (approach?) enables us to better understand the purposes of children's pictorial representation

Full textFrom its first representations in the italian arts from the 15th century to the creation of the opera in florence ( around the end of the 16th century) and to the orfeo of monteverdi at the beginning of the 17th century, the figure of orpheus appears under various aspects : troubadour, " poeta theologus ", young greek hero, melancolic shepherd, sorrowful lover, son of apollo, poet. . . Between 1480 and 1520, the myth of orpheus takes up a crucial position in the visual arts. But it reaches a complex and sophisticated signification through humanist institutions as the accademia careggi founded in 1462, or, one century later, as the camerata bardi, gathering musicians and philosophers in florence. But orpheus'myth will achieve its full expression with monteverdi and his libret-tist striggio. Together, they give birth to a new musical form : the opera

Full textThis work focuses on two revolutions, one iconic, the other architectural and urban, which took place in Italy during the Pre-Renaissance and Renaissance periods. After Saint-Paul, sensitivity was considered as a complex cryptogram. These two revolutions gave it a new dignity. In the first revolution, the image of sign gives way to the image of representation, with the invention of geometric perspective by Brunelleschi. The second one sees the Middle-Age Hermeneutic City (a semiotic labyrinth in a world as enigmatic as the city) give way to the Optic City. The latter is characterized by its sensitive intelligence of which the inhabitants, who have become "operatore e speculatore delle cose" (the expression of the first perspective theorist Alberti), are witnesses. Our hypothesis is that these two revolutions are simply two dialectically connected phases of a single process, in which perspective plays a central role. We refuse to consider perspective as a simple figurative code, as illustrated in Panofsky and Argan's theories. In the first part of this thesis, I deal with the transition from image of sign to image of representation, using the images of the urban representation. In the art of Sienna, we understand how the geometrisation of the physical space through geometric perspective is the continuation of a republican management of urban terrritories. The second part focuses on the passage from the Hermeneutic City to the Optic City, viewed in the main urban creations from the Quattro and Cinquecento eras. The most significant repercussions of this double revolution up to the present time, will be discussed in the epilogue

Full textFrom the early XXth century the Formless, as defined by Georges Bataille in Documents, has revealed itself to be a powerful tool for reflection. It has inspired art works and triggered an ongoing debate about its true meaning, for what is the formless exactly? In search for its essence, this category has proven to be of great value when analyzing theoretical, artistic and literary Renaissance works dealing with the birth of form. The anachronic notion of Formless permits an intertwining of questions regarding the origins of the piece of art, good composition, matter and being. Through this essay we will discuss the poetics of art in the making, so-called (neo)Aristotelian in the XVIth century – poetics in a constant and fluid definition of the Aristotelian meaning enlarged by non-Aristotelian concepts, and categories distant to those attributed to it in classical times

Full textWhy have so many sovereigns, just as so numerous captains and statesmen chosen it as their emblem at this period? This work analyses how an allegory, created for the edification of the faithful, becomes part of the political vocabulary. The “Renaissance of Antiquity” appears to be more the recovery and the adaptation of medieval culture to new needs, in particular to the development of political communication forms. Its expressions differ according to the types of documents considered. A pluridisciplinary approach of much varied sources anables us to bring out the specificity of each one of its uses. Censorship increases from 1530 onwards, Catholics and Protestants still use the allegory of Fortune in their rhetorical fighting through words and images

Full textThis thesis aims at the comparative study of libraries of laity and clerics in the north of France and northern Italy between 1400 and 1520. The relations between the French and Italian territories are no longer to be demonstrated, marked for the beginning of our period by the progressive resolution of the Great Schism and, for the end, by the Italian wars between 1494 and 1516. In the fifteenth century and up to the beginning of the sixteenth century, cultural phenomena of the first order such as dissemination of humanism and, on the material level, the invention of printing spread throughout Europe. We have chosen to focus on "traditional" categories of possessors such as the secular clergy, but also to emerging categories of possessors, including the bourgeoisie

Full textAt the beginning of the "Life" he devotes to Domenico Ghirlandaio, Vasari describes the painter as "one of the most important and most excellent masters of his age". Domenico organized his production according to a rigorous hierarchy and endeavoured to specialize and diversify his offer at the same time. Moreover, the study of the socio-economic context to which his patrons belonged allows us to delineate the outlines of a particularity dynamic "ghirlandaiesque milieu" (I). After the premature death of his brother, Davide took up the family workshop. However, this period of wavering did not prevent numerous artists - pupils and followers - from initiating a dialogue with the art of Domenico (II). Only in the early 16th century, with Ridolfo, did the workshop enjoyed renewed success. Domenico's son proudly fulfilled the socio-professional ambitions nurtured by this father. Just like the latter, he established himself as a master in demand and aroused a true craze among his contemporaries (III)

Full textThis thesis deals with the problems of the Venetian influence in the paintings of Caravaggio. The different features of the art of Michelangelo Merisi are analysed and systematically compared to the Venetian's references, but also Lombards, Florentines and Romans. The social, religious and cultural contexts are also presented, as to highlight the major influence of literature, philosophy, theology, along with painter's acquaintances, influences wich are not merely pictorials. Firstly we paid particular attention to the artistic, political and religious in which the painter was immersed in Milano. The problem of the hypothetical journey in Venice is also treated. Then, we study the relative questions with regards to the chiaroscuro, to colour, to the drawings, to the landscapes, to the faces and to their natural effects shapes but also to their possible Venetian source. Lastly we use examples and comparisons with the main painters of the Serenissima such as Giorgione, Titian or Tintoret, in order to concretely define if one can establish any link between them and Caravaggio. It is essential to study the Lombard painting and the artists of the region of Milano whose influence was upmost primordial. Our study aims to establish the progress of research on the painter, but also to the offer links and interpretations so as the study progress
Morel, Philippe. "Les décors médicéens à la fin de la Renaissance." Paris, EHESS, 1993. http://www.theses.fr/1993EHES0304.
Full textThis work presents a series of studies of different forms of artistic decorations, permanent or ephemeral, conceived in rome and in florence for francesco i and ferdinando i de' medici, mainly between 1575 and 1590. The modalities of the decorations are both material and thematic. Material with frescoes, easel or wood-paintings in ceilings, grottoes covere d by mineral substances variably mould or designed, ephemeral structures, settings and costumes, automatons, etc. Thematic since this thesis is divided into four sections dedicated to the relationships of the decoration with (1) the political sphere as seen through territorial and dynastic ideologies, (2) to cosmology (elements, planets), (3-4) to the natural sciences (ornithology, botany, mineralogy, teratology), as well as to eclectical collectionism. The first point deals with princely entries in florence and pisa, and with their relationships to permanent decorations. The seco nd part is dedicated to the cosmological, astrological and magical programs at villa medici and palazzo firenze in rome, and in the florentine intermezzi of 1589. The third section is mainly about gardens : the "stanzino degli uccelli" in ro me and the grottoes of boboli and pratolino with their automatons. The fourth part treats of grotesques, from the large decoration of the uffizi gallery studied in its structural links with the kunst-and-wunderkammern, the hybrid and the monstruous, and the burlesque poetry

Full textThis thesis offers a social, technical and cultural study of the Renaissance Italian organ. It aims to determine the specificities of practices related to the organ from the 1430s to the mid XVIth century. Brunelleschi’s building of two organ galleries in the cathedral of Florence marks a profound shift in the conception of the organ’s place—a shift that is both spatial (it affects the space of the liturgy) and symbolic. Such a displacement made it necessary for organ builders to adapt their craft. Those innovations are essential characteristics of the organ a la moderna. The diffusion of new aesthetic criteria by craftsmen and their employers can be traced back to three main regions: Tuscany, Veneto and Lombardy. A compilation of buying and hiring agreements is structured as a database of around six hundred and fifty entries. In addition to providing technical data, this corpus makes it possible to study the progressive professionalization of organists and organ builders, in relation to their employers and patrons. The community involved in the process of building the organs is also put back in the broader context of the economic and diplomatic relations between Italian states. The employer therefore becomes a key figure in the diffusion of the organ a la moderna and the professional skills and habits that it involves
Métral, Florian. "Les figures de la genèse : représenter la création du monde dans l'art italien de la Renaissance." Thesis, Paris 1, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017PA01H037.
Full textThe emergence of Renaissance in Italy was associated with a renewed interest in the questioning of origins and, more specifically, in the creation of the world. The humanist discourse in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries was permeated by figures of the genesis that ceaselessly glorified the matrix functionality of the cosmogonic myth to conceive the relationship to the present time. Images, and more specifically works of art, constitute the visible remnants of these contemplations, affecting the religious and philosophical representation of the beginning, as well as the visual means used by the artists to portray the mystery of the first birth. The first part of this study analyses the idea of the creation of the world, during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, through the portrayal of its fundamental role in the practice of history; the construction of knowledge about nature; and the exercise of power. The second and third part of this thesis take the form of case studies focusing on mural paintings - the vault of the Sistine Chapel, completed in 1512, to the Sala della Creazione of Palazzo Besta, completed at the end of the Cinquecento. Finally, the fourth part of this study will explore the poetic and figurative drive emerging from the analogy between the creation of the world and the artistic practice, illustrated via an evocative ensemble of texts and images. During the Renaissance, the theorized iconography of the world’s creation yielded the concept of “artistic creation” and of the work of art as a universe modeled by the artist, thus introducing the modern notion of art
Cordon, Nicolas. "Aux frontières du décor : le stuc dans l'art romain de la Renaissance. Marginalité, simulacres, transgressions." Thesis, Paris 1, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018PA01H050.
Full textAs an ancient decorative technique favoured by Roman art, stucco is given a genuine renaissance in Sixteenth century Rome. Modem artists’ general interest in Antiquity includes more precise considerations regarding the possible functions of stucco in the dialogue between the arts, and explorations of the frontiers separating art from its beholder. Indeed, stucco is being used during the Renaissance in architecture (for the moulding and ornaments, to coat brick walls and give it a "marmoreal" appearance), in painting (as an intonaco for fresco) and in sculpture (to make figurative reliefs and free standing figures, generally combined with mural paintings). Far from opposing the arts, stucco connects them by taking possession of their modes of expression to make them work together inside the decorative systems and, doing so, gives the artists the opportunity to adopt a reflexive point of view regarding their practice, looking toward the investigation of the nature and means of representation. This particular introspection is also a research on the effects of art and its ability to convoke the beholder, to make him part of the representation and make more ambivalent the boundaries of decoration. From an "ornamental", even "marginal" position, numerous stucco figures executed in Rome before the Baroque age give the concept of aesthetic frontier an original instance, where simulacra and transgression are ingeniously summoned

Full textOur thesis approaches the history of Italian and French princely courts through a survey of horsemen's theories and practices from the second half of the XVth century to the 1650s. At that time, horses are an essential element of curial economy, a medium of princely prestige and a mean of social advancement. The first part -"The invention of sources"- invites to discover the sources relating to the equestrian curial institutions (Stables and Studs), to the exchanges between princely households, or to the way equestrian academies for the nobility are run. These sources provide quite a lot of data concerning horse specialists, as we explain in the second part entitled "Horsemen and their Horses in Renaissance Princely Courts". The third part, concerning "Curial economy", examines how a princely household provide itself with the horses it needs for its defence, its leisure activities or its daily routine. The last part -"Mobility and Transfers"- analyzes not only horsemen's mobility and how their know-how spreads, but also the diffusion of cultural models, and of fashionable items of equipment for horses and riders, from court to court, countrywide or abroad. Usually, the development of the equestrian art is considered as a product of the end of the XVth century, when it would have been "discovered" and "imported" from Italy by the French. Nevertheless, Renaissance equestrian models are far from being a fruit of a massive importation of theories, practices and immutable values. They take shape thanks to the exchanges, and to the mobility of horse specialists, young horsemen-to-be travelling to complete their equestrian education, and members of the princely courts

Full textDuring the early 16th century the German territory was not only the most important but also the most fruitful center for the circulation of Italian painter Andrea Mantegna's (1431 - 1506) prints. From Dürer to Peter Vischer in Nuremberg, from Ulrich Apt's workshop to Jörg Breu the Elder in Augsbourg, from Hans Baldung Grien to Matthias Grünewald in Alsace, from Urs Graf to Jörg Schweiger in Switzerland, Altdorfer's workshop, located in Regensburg to Wolf Huber's in Passau. Basically all artistic and humanist centers in the German-speaking world were concerned. This thesis takes as its primary object the problematic of cultural transfers and aims at showing, through a multidisciplinary approach, that the German reception of Italian engravings is not only limited to formal and stylistics aspects but it is integrated in a reflection regarding the emulation, which will take into account both historical and cultural particularities of the German Sacred Roman Empire
Lemos, Maya Suemi. "Du discours moral au discours musical : le thème de la vanité dans la musique italienne post-tridentine." Paris 4, 2006. http://www.theses.fr/2006PA040103.
Full textThe theme of vanity underlies the entire episteme of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries: veritable discourse on the transience of life, on the ephemeral and vain character of all earthly things, it affects all the domains of artistic expression - literature, the visual arts, but also music. The musical representations on the theme of vanity abound in Post-Tridentine Italy, where they constitute an autonomous category within the ensemble of devotional music. Through the appropriation of almost every musical genre of the time - the sacred and the secular, the serious and learned but also the lighter forms - they take various discursive and operational paths. This variety testifies of the necessity to extend the moral discourse to all parts of society: the Vanities - be they pictorial, literal or musical - seem to materialize, in their condensation of meaning, the moral code of the time. Giving form to it, they affirm it and spread it, but can't, nevertheless, avoid to exhaust it

Full textSymbolic edifice of the Renaissance, the church was fundamental in Italian architects’ theoretical reflexions. Their thought, based on Vitruvius’ De architectura and its numerous Renaissance editions, attributes also a great importance to the town in the development of an ideal human community. There’s nothing surprising about that both topics, religious architecture and town planning, meet each other in the theory as in the pratice to glorify the God’s house. However, not at all isolated, the place of worship is inserted in a concentrated urban network. Located close to other symbols of power, like seigneurial castle and local council, the church establishes an ambivalent dialogue with them. Similarly, the town square and the avenue can contribute to its isolated location or its urban integration. Therefore, the notions of religious architecture and town planning appear polysemous. Relying on varied sources (treatises, humanists’ writings, drawings, plans, etc.) the present thesis strives to examine the numerous values of Renaissance’s churches. Does their urban setting participate to make the church the city’s greatest and noblest ornament, as claimed by Alberti ?

Full textIn the 14th and 15th centuries, most cities in Central Italy fell under the rule of powerful families. Camerino saw the rise of the Varanos, Fabriano of the Chiavellis, and Foligno of the Trincis. As communal authorities ended up acknowledging their power, the Popes also agreed to handing out to them significant delegations of their authority. While the two most important foundational aspects of their legitimacy laid there, these families were able to build on a third one that depended on themselves and on themselves alone. Their power became dynastic.Urban lords developed genuine communication policies. Town planning, architecture, commission of paintings as well as of literary works where the most useful tools in the building up of their image as good leaders. This study first explores this achievement by examining wall-paintings in family residences. Such works should be regarded as acts of government perceived as contributions to honor of the city. As instruments of fame, they also manifested singular virtues and thus justified the exercise of a personal power.Artistic commissions situated leading families at the heart of their city’s history. They created a sense of continuity with the urban authorities upon which the new rulers still depended. Images were meant to display an hegemony that came to be more and more deeply grounded in dynastic succession and that was supported by the gathering of a select court. While the different sources of legitimacy of such patrimonialised power may have been contradictory, images managed to accommodate these contradictions. They made new styles of ruling suitable to the claims of customs and to the communities’ self-interests

Full textFocused on one painting by Paolo Veronese (1528-1588), the Bathsheba bathing (Lyon, musée des Beaux Arts), this thesis' ambition is to question a pillar of art history whose stakes are multiple. Whereas the methodological angle envisions the complex topic of the painting as a condensation (i. E Bathsheba bathing and Susanna and the Eiders), this scope is only acceptable while elaborating the reconstruction of traditional analysis once quoted by Daniel Arasse in his "analytical iconography". The addition of biblical commentary, iconography and in depth study of venetian painting, as well as social practice make these two themes converge and the thesis validates their "fusion" into the same image. A local study of the archives of the state of Venice has been undertaken and the result throws light on the origin of the commission through clearing the identity of the commissioners thanks to their blazon, a stamp which is the sign of the alliance of two families Badoer and Soranzo
Petrick, Vicki-Marie. "Le corps de Marie Madeleine dans la peinture italienne du XIIIe siècle à Titien." Paris, EHESS, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012EHES0087.
Full textThe goal of this thesis is to show the density of meanings that inform the plastic and iconographic choices made by Titian for his Pitti Magdalen, examining it in light of the visual traditions of the Magdalen in Italy. To do this, the dissertation goes back to the visual codes established in the 13th century. This study brings forward the means by wich women's bodies may be bearers of theological meaning, beyond that of sin and temptation. A first part establishes the foundations. One chapter approaches the anthropology of the Christian body, another the construction of the "character" of Mary Magdalen and themes associated with her, a third stuides these first plastic formulations in the mediterranean basin. A second part is consecrated to the cycles that present her Vita : the Florentine pala of 1285, the Assisi Magdalen chapel, and the Magdalen chapels of the Bargello and Santa Croce in Florence. The chapters bring forward the dynamic in wich the spectator relates to the figure as an example of sinful flesh converted. A last part proposes a diachronical analysis, on a large temporal scale, from the fourteenth to the sixteenth centuries the principal iconographical signs that distinguishe her : the color red, the hair, the tears, the vase and the perfume, all the while giving particular attention to the regional variations between Tuscany and the Veneto. The final chapter converges the results of the first chapters in the analysis of the Titian Magdalen who appears as an end point in the plastic and conceptual research conducted since 1270

Full textAs composer, interpreter, musical critic and listener, Francis Poulenc (1899-1963) produced lots of writings, interviews and broadcastings, in which he evoqued many parallels between music and fine arts. The first part of this work studies connects between composers' works and fine arts works Poulenc has mentionned. The same study, with his own compositions, constitutes the second part. In the third part, we study pictural works from artists inspired by the composer. After these connects, we tempted to find why the parallels evoqued by Poulenc allow to show his esthetics cares about conception and perception of musical works

Full textThe catalogue of this thesis has been taken from a data base specially created. Its 1370 notices give thousands of references; the notices are classified according to themes in the course of six chronological periods. Thanks to these selected objects, it has been possible to study the sources and the constituent parts of the Egyptian revival according to periods and countries, to index the Egyptian themes more often used, to measure their degree of adaptation, and to identify the symbols contained in the different creations. The sources of egyptomania are taken from archeological items, travel accounts, exceptional events and former egyptianizing creations; but the evolution of the fidelity of the interpretations doesn’t follow necessarily the increasing of the knowledge of ancient Egypt. The chronological study points out several evolutions: egyptomania, created at the beginning for esthetes’' pleasure, soon becomes democratized; the archeological discovering and publications give new possibilities to it; it can use many new means of expression (movies, cartoons, comic-strips and adverting) and thus increased its audience. The thematic study of the egyptianizing objects and creations shows how easily egyptomania adapts itself and mixes with the style of the period. A repertory of the themes taken from ancient Egypt shows which ones are used most. Egyptianizing items carry lots of symbols from ancient Egypt and from the time of their making; using numerous concepts (dream, fear, laugh), egyptomania, as well as Egypt, has a strong impact on people. The Egyptian revival is more than part of exotism and anticomania; it is an independent current more alive and fascinating to-day than ever

Full textThe creation of the Medicean portraiture has supported the political campaign started by Cosimo I, invested duke of Florence in 1537, then duke of Siena in 1559, and Grand Duke of Tuscany in 1570, to establish a dynastic authority on a princely state created by Charles V and to ensure the continued existence of an autocracy for his heirs. The arts of textile, ornament and jewellery are the pillars of this image of power. In an economic and cultural context where Florence was regarded as one of the major centers of luxury and artistic creation, the Medici used this world-renowned culture to their advantage. They became its ambassadors in order to have their identity recognized and to promote their legitimacy in the eyes of the European courtly society. At the same lime, they took financial and legislative measures to help the industrial modernization of their State, the European expansion of the Tuscan textile market and the foundation of an international and unparalleled center of the arts and crafts. The portrait du costume defines the representation of an original aesthetics, in connection with this singular context, which was mounted to realize such ambitions. With the exhibition of Florentine luxury, depicted with meticulous materiality and stunning authenticity, the portraits bear witness to a strategy of appearances staged to fulfill a double objective: enhance Florence as a jewel of Renaissance art and exalt the royal prestige conquered by the Grand Dukes of Tuscany

Full textThis thesis focuses on the political and artistic dimensions of battle scenes in 16th-century Italian monumental painting, at a time when the depiction of war had yet to develop a distinction between two forms of the depiction of history, history painting treating past events and historical painting focused on contemporary events, according to artistic categories established during the 17th century. Thus this work does not offer a history of the battle scene itself, but an enquiry on specific compositions, trying to ascertain the political, ideological, aesthetic and cultural issues that inform them. Although the artistic heterogeneity of the corpus and the political fragmentation of the Italian peninsula have encouraged previous studies to follow a monographical approach, the apparition of historically and thematically similar contexts in which various battle scenes answer analogous ambitions has led us to adopt a comparative methodology, which attempts to develop a dialogue between pairs, series or types of works, linked by common political and formal objectives. Starting from 1500, a series of major orders placed by the main political powers in Italy embued battle scenes with a new monumental dimension within political iconography. In the urgency of the context of the Italian Wars, the depiction of past historical events was invested with the hope of real political efficacy, to which the mimetic and expressive evolution of Italian painting was now able to respond. The battle scenes left unfinished by Leonardo and Michelangelo adopted a rhetorical treatment of history which involved the viewer into a narrative centred around the emotions of the characters during the action. By virtue of their treatment of figures and their complex narrative articulation, Leonardo’s and Michelangelo’s battle scenes, and later Raphaël’s and Titian’s, acquired paradigmatic status, and paved the way for the establishment of the battle scene as a political-aesthetical form, making the nobility and ambition of artistic endeavour subservient to the expression of power. Sporadic compositions of the beginning of the 16th century were followed, during the second half of that century, by an extension of military themes in palace decoration. The political and iconographic objectives of paintings was therefore determined by the orientation of the iconographic programme of the whole room. In dynastic painting cycles, the correlation between genealogy and history led the artist to closely associate the depiction of the event to the actions of the character, so that devices of individual glorification coexisted with devices historicizing the episode. In state ornamentation, the multiplication of battle scenes showcased military might as the basis for the sovereignty of the modern State. In Florence and Venice, the depiction of war received from military humanism an encyclopaedic dimension which illustrated the central role played by the mastery of these forms of knowledge in the administration of the State. The last part of this study, which focuses on the monumental representations of the Battle of Lepanto in Venice and Rome, describes the emergence of problems that are specific to the depiction of contemporary battles. The immediacy of the event demanded from the historical depiction of the unfolding of the event an advanced documentary quality. The artists had to develop new experiments in the aesthetic idiom used to represent the battle, sometimes in dialogue with more descriptive or schematic depictions of warfare. 16th-century Italian battle scenes thus find themselves at a crossroad between the evolution of warfare during the Renaissance, characterised by the beginnings of the « Military Revolution », and the evolution of aesthetic theory, defined by an increasing rationalisation in the way history is depicted

Full textThis study exposes the key role played by the notion of "place" in the development of "modern pictorial space". We first establish that place and "anti-place" represent the two fundamental components of the thirteenth century pictorial environment and that these components are closely correlated to the notions of place and "anti-place" as they appear in contemporary theology, natural philosophy, mnemonic practices and politico-territorial organisation. We then study the causes and processes which lead the thirteenth century pictorial place to evolve and a new conception of the image to emerge. This new conception is characterised by two levels: onecomposed of material bodies, the other taking the form of an immaterial, rectilinear and regularstructure - structure which, while being identifiable as a direct derivative of pictorial place, isequally identifiable as a speculative model of real space

Full textThe dissertation deals with Parmigianino’s activity as a portraitist during the two periods of time he spent in his native Parma, between 1503 and 1524 and then between 1531 and 1540. Its aim is to analyze the painter’s male portraits in particular, that is to to clarify their specific significances and, at the same time, to elucidate the visual and semantic processes through which Parmigianino elaborated the figurative discourses that his portraits convey, in the artistic, cultural, social and political context of their creation. To reach this goal, several methodological approaches are used. The disseration begins with a close study of the artistic history of Parma between 1500 and 1540 and an analysis of the traditions related to portraiture in the city, with regard to its many cultural and political relations to other regions and states (Milan, Venice, Bologna, Florence and Rome). The political history of Parma during the first half of the Cinquencento is an other field of research. Its purpose is to articulate the many institutionnal transformations of the comune, the conquest of Parma by several foreign powers between 1499 and 1520, until the creation of the Duchy of Parma and Piacenza by Pope Paul III, with the market and practices of portraiture. After this close examination of the context, Parmigianino’s portraits are analyzed through a trans-disciplinary approach that deals with art history, cultural history (literature, history of the book, emblems, traditions of rethoric, linguistic debates), social and political history)

Full textThe exceptional scope provided by the myth of Medea, which spans from the Conquest of the Golden Fleece to her return to the throne of Colchis, was received in its entirety by the Early Modern Arts and offers a multi-faced prism : Medea “tue-enfant” (La Péruse), the character left by the Ancient ancient Greek tragedy that became an archetypal figure of monstrous violence, crosses the path of the oriental lover of a civilizing hero, and also the enchantress who scatters lineages and timelines. Sculpted by the Christian culture and allowed into the official artistic repertory, this ambivalent figure absorbs the aesthetics and ethical debates of modernity. Indeed, Her Medea’s myth can be used for the expression of horror, allegories of glory, as well as expression of the passions.In addition, from the establishment of the Order of the Golden Fleece, by the Duke of Burgundy in 1430, to the end of the War of the Spanish Succession (which redefined the entire map of major European powers), Medea’s myth becomes one of the most efficient fictional mirrors of the political disputes between the most influential families of Europe, as an instrument of the publication of the Prince programme. Into the landscape of the cultural influences shared by the States of Early Italy and the French Kingdom, this study intends to show, by analysingthe spread of iconography of Medea, her presence in printed material and her classical performance reception and rewriting, how the exchanges between visual and literary productions work towards the definition of a paradoxical heroic standard.

Full textThe manuscripts made in Rome during the sixteenth century, often unknown and reduced to a stylistic study, have a complex relationship with the artistic context of the period. Rome brings together a number of artists whose origins and training permeate the local idiom, leading to exceptional creations. Giulio Clovio, Vincent Raymond, Jacopo del Giallo and Apollonio di Bronfratelli insert in their miniatures not only the motifs of the monumental decorations. They also adapt the principles of the ornament to the fields of the manuscript decoration. The illuminated manuscript is transformed into a field of experimentation where the ornament embodies various artistic problems. Unexpected agents during the act of reading, the decorative figures also participate in the actualization of meditative reading, thus proposing a new conceptualization of medieval ruminatio. Reporting on both private and official commissions, the study of these illuminations will give rise to observations concerning the function of ornamentation according to the context and the type of use. Through a semiological approach and a systematic study of the production of the period, this research proposes to fully integrate the illuminated book into the artistic universe of the Italian sixteenth century

Full textThe chivalrous group The Nine Worthies, which appears in the novel Vœux du Paon written by Jacques de Longuyon circa 1312, was quickly transposed into pictorial form by means of many artistic techniques and became a popular theme throughout the 14th and 15th centuries in the Holy Empire, the French kingdom, and reaching even Catalonia and Italy. At the same time, Italy was rediscovering its own glorious past by way of the biographical literary genre Lives, which Petrarch had appropriated and modernized; therein moral and political values were drawn from the history of Ancient Rome and exempla of Uomini famosi, i.e. Famous Men, the latter becoming the subject of murals painted on the walls of private and public residences. However four patrons, in Tyrol, Piedmont and Umbria, belonging de jure or de facto to the nobility, chose the nine transalpine heroes to decorate different spaces in their homes. Both traditions –the chivalrous and the classic, each one praising its respective models– co-existed in Italy for some decades. This thesis analyzes the fortune and the adaptation of the Worthies' heroic series as depicted in wall paintings dating from a pivotal period of transition between the Late Gothic and the Early Renaissance. Utilizing both literary and iconographic evidence we analyze the details that characterize the diffusion and treatment of the canonical group of the Nine Worthies in Italy, where the classical tradition dominated and was employed to embody the first form of patriotism that was taking shape there. The Worthies' topos, an expression of the resistance of the chivalrous culture which was present in Italy until the end of the 15th century, was a flexible theme that could be adapted to early humanism. The pertinent question becomes, are we observing, through the transalpine pantheon, the creation of a new iconography? This study provides answers while proposing specific readings of the four host places examined and interpreting these monumental cycles

Full textThis PhD thesis aims at examining the development of genuine poetics common to artists and painters in the Rome of Leo X. The purpose of this work is not to detect iconographic programs: it aims at identifying formal researches and shared aesthetics, which I will try to achieve by performing an inventory of topics, by describing the broader role of these pieces in the culture of their time and by analysing the practical consequences, in both fields, of these general aesthetic choices. I will begin by providing a brief overview of the Rome of Leo X and its humanistic and artistic sociability circles in chapter 1. In a second chapter, I will more precisely study the humanists’ discourse on the works of art at that time. In these texts, I will try to highlight common issues that artists and humanists could encounter in their practice such as imitation. I will then consider the question of the epic in poetry and the visual arts in chapter 3. I will try to show that Raphael’s Fire in the Borgo, traditionally interpreted as a tragedy in painting, should rather be understood as an epic painting. The final chapter will involve a study of the latin poetry of Pietro Bembo, Baldassare Castiglione and Andrea Navagero, the three poets who seem to have been closest to Raphael. I will try to show the convergence between poetry and painting by comparing these authors’ poetry of bucolic and pastoral inspiration with the decorative cycles carried out by Raphael, first at the Villa Farnesina of Agostino Chigi, and later at the Vatican in the apartments of cardinal Bibbiena and in the Loggie. I suggest that these decors should be read as places of memory of this neo-latin poetry

Full textGiovanni Santi has depicted his contemporary Luca Signorelli as a « pelegrino » painter. From this startingpoint, our study deals with the cortonese master’s triple itinerary. The first one, relative to artistic geography,concerns patrons and collaborators between centers and peripheries and we intend to reappreciate his image of aprovincial artist. We investigate consequently the impact of local devotions and sacra rappresentazione on hispictorial language (I). The second itinerary, a interdisciplinary one, focuses on the treatment of the human figureand on the nude. His vision of the body is compared with the contemporary development of a scientific anatomyand with practical and theoretical approaches. Indeed it raises the question of the proprieties. The tactile qualitiesof signorellian art, his position in the emerging Paragone debate and the modalities of his volumetric translationare also studied ; we consider the possibility of a sculptural activity (II). Finally, Luca’s roaming imaginationarises from a temporal oscillation between interest for the past, archaic taste and an aspiration for renewal. Wethus examine his relationship with antique art and his position between « seconda e terza età », analyzing hisconnections with ars nova and the original seeds he sow. Beyond the reputation of a local latecomer or of aforerunner in the shade of Michelangelo, we aim to emphasize this way the curiosity, the sociability and theexchanges of a transitionary artist (III)

Full textThis thesis discusses the conditions of possibility for a philosophy of art based on a precise and rigorous analysis of the pictorial artistic production of the Italian Renaissance. After attempting at defining a method, the presuppositions of iconology are studied in detail with a view to establishing what appear to be their limits. On the basis of this analysis, the author deduces the need for a philosophy of art which, rather than just carrying out an erudite analysis of the icon, endeavours to extract the meaning of a work of art on the basis of its sensitive shape. While Plato, Hume and Kant’s thoughts seem to fail in proposing such an approach, Hegel’s teachings dedicated to aesthetics offer an operational analytical framework, thanks to which space, drawing and colour provide the very place out of which sense can come into being.Hence the works of Fra Angelico, Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo constitute the artistic material out of which the relevance of the space-drawing-colour triptych, as developed by Hegel, is put to the test. Furthermore, reference is made to the philosophical thoughts on space, light and colour – as expressed by authors like Thomas Aquinas, Marsilio Ficino, Albert the Great, Plotinus, Aristotle and Nicholas of Kues – with a view to proposing a philosophical sense of pictorial works of art, which paradoxically the theories of art provided by these authors do not seem able to deliver. It is the fundamental aim of this thesis to look for the philosophical sense of works of art through their own sensitiveness and not through a theory of the image

Full textThis work consists of an edition and a translation with commentary of the paraphrase to Horace's Art of Poetry by Francesco Robortello, a Renaissance philologist famous for his commentary on Aristotle's Poetics. The paraphrase was published in 1548, in Florence, and belongs to a volume that contains the commentary on Aristotle. It was published again in Basel in 1555 with the commentary on Aristotle's Poetics. This paraphrase is part of the myriad of commentaries on Horace's Art of Poetry that proliferated during the Renaissance. This study shows that Robortello’s paraphrase is part of a tradition of commentary that goes back to Antiquity and that it differs from other humanistic commentaries by its form and by its many references to Aristotle’s Poetics
