Abstract:
South African artists, d i ssatisfied with the staid environment in local circles, felt the need to travel abroad for fresh stimulation. This need allowed for a historical investigation into the results, beneficial or otherwise, of the influence of European modernism on early twentieth century South African painters. Because of the numerous practising artists in South Africa at the time, it was found necessary to give cohesion to the artists discussed and, therefore the most pertinent were grouped into artistic movements.

He assesses Caravaggio's accomplishments with well chosen observations thereby breaking his restriction to discuss only accessible works of art.

The eighteenth century saw the emergence of Britain as a pre-eminent imperial, mercantile and maritime power. At home, the 1707 Act of Union between England and Scotland, and the advances in communications stimulated new opportunities for artists working inside and outside of London. Overseas, the aftermath of the Seven Years War (1756-1763) in particular, saw the spectacular growth of Britain's world-wide interests through imperial expansion.

Abstract:
In Western scholarship, eighteenth century Chinese paintings have consistently been seen as playful, eccentric, and odd. This characterization has been based on the formal qualities of some of the paintings. At the same time, Chinese scholars have written of the scholarly virtues and ambitions of the painters producing the works. The contradiction between these two interpretations is in part consistent with the Western and Chinese approaches generally. But it also stems from the mixed signals and information generated in the eighteenth century. The nature of painting, not just formally, but so

Abstract:
Entre 1528, date à laquelle François Ier promit à la municipalité parisienne le retour de la cour après plus d'un siècle d'exil dans le Val de Loire, et 1589, année de la mort de Henri III et du début du siège, l'industrie de la broderie connut un grand essor à Paris. Le luxe entretenu au sein de l'entourage royal permet d'expliquer la prospérité des ateliers des brodeurs de la capitale durant cette période. À partir de l'analyse de documents notariaux, judiciaires et comptables, et de l'examen approfondi des textiles conservés, cette thèse propose d'examiner le rôle joué par Paris dans la pro

Abstract:
The thesis concerns the artworks by Johan Sylvius in the staircase, upper vestibule, upper north guard room and upper gallery of the Drottningholm Palace, as painted performances. They are studied as performative cultural encounters with a historically situated beholder but will also be regarded in relation to their spatial and artistic surrounding. From the theoretical framework of performativity and reception aesthetics, the results indicate that the images have the potential to inscribe the beholder within certain postulates on power relations and politics of identity, through working with

This thesis focuses on the characterization of materials utilized within the illuminations of Codex 116c of Manizola, a large 16th century antiphonal housed in the Biblioteca Pública de Évora (BPE). Using various spectroscopic techniques (XRF, FTIR, Raman and SEM-EDS), a selection of illuminations were analyzed for pigment and binder identification. The manuscript was further analyzed using fiber optic reflectance spectroscopy (FORS), a non-invasive and portable analysis method ideal for use in illuminations. Using historical documentation and results gained from more extensive analysis of the

Abstract:
La thèse a pour objet l'étude approfondie d'une série de huit tableaux monumentaux intitulée "Les Festivités du papegai en 1615 à Bruxelles". Exceptionnelle par le type de sujet et par le format, cette série fut commandée par les archiducs Albert et Isabelle (1598-1621) à leur peintre Denijs van Alsloot (1568 ?-1625/26) afin de célébrer la victoire de l'infante au tir de l'oiseau de bois (le "papegai") du Grand Serment des arbalétriers à Bruxelles. Elle est aujourd’hui incomplète, mais la confrontation des sources écrites avec les tableaux subsistants (en ce compris quelques répliques et varia
