Abstract:

The advent of Islam in Nusantara sparked new phenomena or changing not only in structure of building construction of religious places, residency and houses but also ornaments and decoration expressing value of beauty of that building. The result of this research tries to reveal how far Islamic influence is working without undermining local aspects of architecture and how Islamic architecture was influenced by other characters in ornament and decorative-ornament artwith various design and sense. Islamic nuances are substantially showed in traditional and contemporary mosque architecture, gravey

Abstract:

The most famous architectural complex associated with the Jesuit order in colonial Cusco, was the college and church of the Transfiguration, located in the main square of the city. Monks of the Society of Jesus focused on evangelisation and teaching, which led to creation of subsequent monastic foundations. There were two schools in Cusco: one of them was intended for descendants of conquistadors (Colegio de San Bernardo), and the other one for sons of Andean caciques (Colegio de San Francisco Borja). Each of them was located in its own architectural complex, and one of the necessary conceptua

Abstract:

This text consists of an interpretive essay about the meaning(s) of the “mirror” as an object in Mainland and Aegean Greece (in contrast to Western/Colonial Greece), based on iconography. I take into consideration two distinct repertoires of images: the paintings of Attic vases (late sixth – early fourth century B.C.) and the figurative decoration on the mirrors themselves, in relief or engraved (late fifth – early third century B.C.). The central focus of the analysis is the iconography registered on mirrors produced in the four main manufacturing centers of Greece (Athens, Corinth, Chalcis,

Abstract:

This essay analyzes the decorative program of Quito's Jesuit church—better known as the church of La Compañía—and the meanings of the different reflective materials that adorned it in the eighteenth century, in particular, gilded surfaces and mirrors. Paying special attention to these elements, this essay demonstrates that reflective surfaces helped shape colonial religious experience. Based on colonial sources, this essay reconstructs the wealth of La Compañía's interior, which changed significantly after the expulsion of the Society of Jesus from the Americas in 1767. It also analyzes the ro

Abstract:

This thesis explores the implications of chinoiserie, or Western creations of Chinese-style decorative arts, upon an eighteenth century colonial American audience. Chinese products such as tea, porcelain, and silk, and goods such as furniture and wallpaper displaying Chinese motifs of distant exotic lands, had become popular commodities in Europe by the eighteenth century. The American colonists, who were primarily culturally British, thus developed a taste for chinoiserie fashions and wares via their European heritage. While most European countries had direct access to the China trade, coloni

Abstract:

En 1482, lorsque la construction du palazzo del Vaso s’achève sous le cardinal Giuliano della Rovere (1443-1513), l’édification d’imposants palais au cœur de la ville de Rome consiste en une pratique que se réservent, presque exclusivement, les Princes de l’Église. Manifestation ostensible du pouvoir, les riches et puissantes familles de la capitale ne tardent pas, dès le tournant du XVIe siècle, à s’approprier à leur tour cette prérogative dans le but de légitimer leur statut social. Certes, l’architecture extérieure du palais demeure, pour ces familles, un moyen efficace d’y parvenir, mais à
