Full textThis thesis investigates the uses and functions of colour in Florentine panel painting of the Trecento. As the first study on this topic, it moves beyond a mere analysis of hues, using a multidisciplinary approach that incorporates lexicography, material studies, and visual analysis. To determine the role of colour within Florentine society, the first section undertakes a comprehensive examination of colour vocabulary in 14th-century Italian languages, revealing both the significance of red within Florentine culture and the neutrality of colour terms regardless of context. The second section provides a synthesis of previous studies on the material history of colour and an overview of the materials and their application techniques. It highlights the inherent complexity of tempera techniques and the systematic use of pigments, while also allowing for some adaptability to artists' preferences. Finally, the third section examines the functions of colour within images, from both iconographic and pictorial perspectives. This study brings to light the systems underpinning painter colour choices, showing that, while certain individual preferences may be identified, the use of colour in panel paintings follows iconographic, rhetorical, and functional rationales reflecting the intellectual, religious, and artistic context of the period

Full textThis thesis is rooted in the methodological framework of the history of representations. It aims to identify the literary, visual and musical features of the medievalist imaginary invented in the French opéra-comique between 1810 and 1830. The imaginary now only appears through the reflections of an evaporated sensitivity and through discontinuous hintsthat need to be reassembled.Thus the characteristics of this imaginary conditioned by the couleur locale emerge from the combination of several methods: the comparison of several opéras-comiques – taking into account their booklets, set designs and scores –, the study of the Parisian press and investigation of parodic manifestations of the medievalism in the years that followed.The methodological challenge consists in a multidisciplinary approach, which tightly binds the opéra-comique with its context. The idea that music only acquires its meaning and color in an imaginary framework underpins this approach. Among the other French medievalist aspects considered, Charles Prévost Arlincourt’s novel provide the most valuableway to clarify the lyrical imaginary.The comparison with adaptations and translations of French medievalist plots in Italy and in Germany is one of the best way to identify the characteristics of the imaginary. Thus this study does not identify a European style but rather reveals some untranslatable components in the wake of French medievalist intrigues. However, at the time when each country is seeking roots and identity, some European references emerge in the context of the lyrical medievalism
Rowley, Neville. "Pittura di luce. La manière claire dans la peinture du Quattrocento." Thesis, Paris 4, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010PA040197/document.
Full textThis thesis starts from an 1990 Florentine exhibition called “Pittura di luce” which intended to identify a trend in the mid-15th-century Florentine painting. This “painting of light” is not only, as was said at the time, a “coloured style” led by Fra Angelico and Domenico Veneziano, but it should be extended to a more “white manner”, from Masaccio to the first works of Andrea del Verrocchio, in the early 1470s. The technical and symbolical meanings of this style are to be studied as they reinforce the sense and the coherence of a trend publicly sustained by the Medici. The major aim of the “pittura di luce” is to make “emerge” religious paintings from the darkness of the churches (I). The study of the vast but also discontinuous geographical development of this “bright style” amplifies the hypotheses of the Florentine case: as much as a modern way of painting, it has very often a more archaic connotation of divine light. Piero della Francesca is surely the major figure of this ambivalent development (II). He is also one of the most significant examples of the way in which the “pittura di luce” was forgotten, and then rediscovered during the 19th and 20th centuries, thanks to art historians and artists, but also to the changes of the conditions of vision of the works of art. In this sense, the “pittura di luce” is an important chapter of the history of look, that we propose to compare with other rediscoveries of similar “paintings of apparition” (III)

Full textThis thesis intends to be a history of teaching in the wider acceptance of the term (contents and pedagogical methods, institutions and staffs concerned) within a relatively broad chronological framework (four centuries) but in a restricted geographical space (the old diocese of Orléans). The first part deals through a study of the intellectual products with human examples, to reconstruct the teaching of the schools inherited from the Carolingian renaissance, the monastic schools of fleury (st-benoit-sur-loire) and micysaint-mesmin (10th-11th centuries) and the urban schools of Orléans, and eventually meung-sur-loire (11th-13th centuries). The second part, after a survey of the products of the Loire’s called in the field of ars dictaminis (art of writing letters), tries to picture the vision of the society, especially of the world of the schools, which was that of the masters of this discipline in the 12th and 13th centuries. The third part, centered upon the institutions, describes the evolution which leads from the schools, (in the precise sense), of the 12th and 13th centuries, to the institutionalization of the university, confirmed by pope clement 5's bulls of the 27th of January 1306 and its final acceptance after a protected crisis in 1320.

Full textHellenism emerged in the wake of Winckelmann’s pre-Romantic works describing the purity of Ancient Greece. The first Aesthetes, from Swinburne to Pater, subverted this model in favour of a dissident aesthetic revealing a more ambiguous and colourful Greece in keeping with contemporary archeological and anthropological discoveries. The poets and painters of the Aesthetic movement re-read Greek myths in a new light – the Chthonian gods supplanting the Olympians – in order to highlight a more primitive Greece rejected by Winckelmann and the Victorians whose “hellenomania” could not be reconciled with the possibility of the vision of another Greece. This thesis focuses both on the subversion of classical norms and on how the Aesthetes reinvented a new hellenic model returning to the unmediated origins of Greek art. They revisited the myths and figures of creation : Sappho, Apelles, Pygmalion and Daedalus, in a imaginary quest for the origins of the cult of beauty, which is at the very heart of the Greek miracle and of Aestheticism

Full textThis paper presents studies on the artistic exchanges between Iran and China observed on textiles and ceramics from the 13th to 14th century. It presents detailed analysis of three important characteristics of the artistic transfers : namely the existence of potential technique transfer, the relation between the two materials (textile and ceramic) during the artistic exchange, and the intention of the Mongols, based on existing corpus The first part of paper is devoted to textile corpus, particularly the textile with golden thread, featuring a catalog of textile samples. The second part presents in depth discussions of the ceramic corpus and questions the potential technical exchange of pottery , followed by comparisons based on actual data. The third part presents comparisons of the patterns observed in both textiles and ceramics specimens, suggesting that the transfer of the concrete motifs reveals the essential cultural relations between the non-sedentary peoples (the Khitan, the Jurchen, the Mongols) of northern Asia. The conclusions of the studies are threefold. First, the technical transfer can be only confirmed in the textile domain. Second, the differences of the artistic exchanges between the textile and the ceramic are closely related to the natural characteristics and the social value of each material, which challenges the previous idea that the textile would be considered as the mediator for the Il-khan ceramic during the artistic transfer. The last but not the least, the cultural relationship between the non-sedentary peoples is clearly represented by the artistic exchanges under the domination of the Mongols

Full textThe aim of this thesis is the iconographical presentation and study of the most ancient russian hagiographical icons - i. E. Icons where the saint shown in the center is surrounded by scenes of his life. After the introduction which exposes the advancement of the research, icons (23 icons) are briefly presented in a catalogue. The second part gathers the main material data known about them (size, geographical origin and place in church). The next two chapters are entirely devoted to iconography. Chapter iii analyses representations which are in the center of the icons (called srednik) : representations of saints Nicholas, Elia, Michael, George, Boris and Gleb. Chapter IV sutdies the iconography of each scene (called Klejmo) which surrounds the central part of the icon representating episodes of the saint's life (birth, miracles, death). The last part of this study is the comparison between hagiographical icons and the liturgical old-russian texts. Although hagiographical icons had already been compared with hagiographical texts (lives of saints), they had never actually been compared with liturgical texts of the services celebrated in the church

Full textThis thesis focuses on the illuminated manuscripts produced in the Mamlūk sultanate during the 14th century. These works, produced in large numbers, now represent a significant critical mass in order to study the various mechanisms of manuscript production in Egypt and Syria at the end of the Middle Ages. Using historical sources and an analysis of the book as an object and work of art, this study proposes to trace the manufacturing process and production context of these manuscripts. The working method adopted is based on three main axes: first, careful observation of the medium through the use and evolution of the paper formats used, the layout and writing, and then the analysis of illuminations, essentially based on considerations relating to their geometric construction. By combining several disciplines such as codicology, palaeography and art history, this study highlights the identity of the various actors and their role within this artistic production, but also the introduction and evolution of certain operating modes in the manufacturing process or in the exercise of patronage

Full textBetween 1905 and 1914, both german and austrian artists experimented in the field of color. Color came to be the decisive link in the development of modern art and of the complete work of art. Thus on the stage kokoschka with "morder, hoffnung der frauen", schoenberg with "die gluckliche hand" and kandinsky with his "color" operas, "der gelbe klang" "der grune klang" "schwarz und weib" "violett", found a new energy and creativity in color, liberating it from a mere utilitarian role and considering it as an autonomous living thing. Color was stronger than words in its ability to translate inner feelings and the senses. It could metamorphose, reunite, reconcile and transcend and kandinsky founded the interaction of these different artistic means through sound and vibration. It was a new synthesis in continual flux opening up a new space and kandinsky proceded first to simplify the basic elements, then became more complex by putting into play their polarity, their extremes. In poetry kandinsky transposes pictural techniques in order to liberate sound through repetition, reducing the word to its proper sonority

Full textWhilst the influence of color optical theories on the development of pictorial techniques in the Nineteenth and Twentieth centuries has been the subject of numerous studies, the field of color psychology needs to be explored further. Our research focuses on the historical and epistemological links between psycho-physiological approaches to color - derived from the discourse of experimental psychology, psychiatry and psychic sciences - and visual cultures at the turn of the Twentieth century. This dissertation explores the power of color as mental conditioning, or «chromomentalism» : how color influences the mind and more broadly the body of the individual by affecting its ability to concentrate, health or mood. The thesis presents three major axes that correspond to multiples aspects of color psychology : color-attention, color-energy and color-emotion. The first part analyzes the attention-grabbing devices used both in the laboratory and on stage, the dialectic between attention and distraction in urban experiences, and the rise of psychotechnics of color (art, cinema, advertising:). The second part explores the oractices of energetic control (the utopian goal of the "body without fatigue", neurasthenia, psychotechnics of energy) and the bio-aesthetic interpretation of color that emerges from occultism and experimental sciences. The third part focuses on the power of color to affect emotion, by questioning the debate on empathy and the education of the senses, the popular aesthetics of colors, the link between chromatic and social harmonies

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 textThe present research deals with a problem of medieval Bulgarian history that has never been studied in detail. It is about the use of art by the Bulgarian Tsar for his politics, including representations, both visual and textual, of the sovereign. The objective of the research is to trace the evolution of the model image of the Bulgarian sovereign, presented in the various artistic media. Even more, the aim is to identify distinctly Bulgarian elements which could indicate whether an ethnic identity existed at that time. Thus, the work is constructed in four main parts. Chapter I. The Historical Background and Political Ideology of the Second Bulgarian Empire (1185-1396) is divided into two sub-sections. The first traces the main features of the history of the Second Bulgarian Empire. Emphasis is placed on the political and socio-cultural progress taking place in society and which play an important role in State policy: the restoration of the State, the official recognition of its status and that of its leader, the independence of the Bulgarian Church, the policy of matrimonial marriages, etc. The aim is to trace the evolution of the political idea in order to understand the context of the artistic production resulting from the order of the sovereign. Four major periods are to be noted in Bulgarian history which delimit the changes taking place in society: the period of the reestablishment of the state (1185 - 1241), the period of weakening (1241 - 1300), the period of heyday (1300 - 1371) and the period of decline (1371 - 1396). Artistic production depended largely on it since political changes determined its development

Full textThe moral imagery knows an exceptional development in the Italian Peninsula between 1315 and 1415. The mendicant orders, in particular the Franciscans, the Dominicans and the Augustinians, are the main instigators of the revival of this theme. Completely turned towards the study and the propagation of morality, these three orders are in competition on the matter of virtues. Among the laymen, cities initiate a coherent imagery drawing the portrait of virtuous communes intended to legitimate the governments and to denounciate the tyrannical systems. From a large iconographic corpus (more than 700 pictures), the study of virtues and vices intends to find the function and the meaning of personifications in the Italian art on the eve of Modern history. The analysis of pictures brings to light the notions that underlie the representation of virtues: the artistic processes consisting in representing moral values; the edifying and mnemonic dimension of personifications; the echos and gaps between personifications and exemplifications; the popularization phenomenon of ethics by the picture

Full textThis thesis focuses on some military aspects in South-western France in the early years of the Hundred Years’ War (1337-1380), such as framework and strength, pays and art of warfare. It assesses the respective armies of the Valois King of France and of the King of England, Duke of Aquitany which rule the area between 1346 and 1356, and of the Viscount of Béarn as well. Specificities of the South-western part of France can be noticed on all sides, such as particular classes of men-at-arms (crossbowmen, serjeants and horsemen of lower value) or particular rates of wages. Thus, the Anglo-gascon soldiers are more like their French and Bearnese opponents than their English brothers in arms for the composition of troops, recruiting (contracts) and art of warfare. There would be a common provincial military identity, so to speak, between Gascony and Languedoc. Of course, each side have its own specificities: a great efficiency for Plantegenêt’s troops, a better organization and a larger number of soldiers for the French, with Gaston Fébus looking like a sort of synthesis of both. Common evolutions are noticeable on each side, and not only in South-western France, with the English often acting as the forerunners. From ca 1360 on officering structures (territorial commands, “auxiliarisation” and homogenization in the companies) and pay processes are simplified. Tactics of the victorious English armies (dismounted fights combined with archery) are copied and adaptated. Anglo-gascons are less interested in French practices (except for marshalls). But some areas seem immutable, such as siege warfare despite the development of the powder artillery

Full textThis dissertation is the first comprehensive study concerning the augustinian preacher Simone Fidati da Cascia. Mostly known for his pastoral activity in Florence, he has also been active in Siena, Pisa, Perugia, and Rome. Although he has been neglected by the historiography, he is a prolific author that left us a long commentary on the Gospel, a vernacular text of religious instruction, and a collection of letters. The main idea of this thesis is to understand the relation between spirituality and society through the study of the affective discourse delivered by a preacher and its effect on his audience. To this end, the dissertation begins with a biographical study of Simone Fidati which works to reveal the nature of his relation with his master Angelo Clareno, the leader of a dissident franciscan movement (1st part). Follows a second part where Fidati is inserted in the florentine society, bringing to light his network of friends from different social groups, religious and lay, masculin and feminine. In the third and last part, this dissertation engage with the modern notion of "emotional script" to make sense of the emotions in the discourse of the preacher. This notion helps us understand emotions as sequences aiming at moving the souls of the audiences along an affective path toward love of God and tranquility of mind. This "therapeutical" function of the spiritual director is at the heart of his pastoral activity, not only guiding the spirits, but also the behaviours of men and women in society

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 textMy dissertation focuses on the manuscript illumination under the Il-khanid rule in Iran and Iraq, between 1258 and c. 1350. This study reconsiders the constitutive patterns and construction systems of the decorative components of the book and also underscores evidence of extensive cultural and artistic exchanges on the scale of Eurasia. The selected methodology is mainly twofold: The first one lies on a “deconstructive approach” of the ornament by an examination of the material both on the macroscopic and microscopic scales. In other words, the thesis begins with the general characterization of the illuminated programs, focusing thereafter on their constitutive elements such as frontispieces or shamsa and concluding with an examination of the various forms of fillings. The second axis highlights the complex role of transfers between several cultural centers particularly active such as China, Tibet, India and the different Christianities during the Il-Khanid period. Circulation of wares and exchanges of diplomatic gifts are explored to propose clues on the reception of new patterns in Iranian ornament.In the conclusion, this thesis suggests the (re-)attributions of some manuscripts and comments the relevance of the now usual expression “Islamic Chinoiserie”

Full textA main thematic pervades Otto Freundlich's works of plastic art and writings : the will to renew the aesthetic in a quest for truth, in the center of which is the perceptive relation of the human being to nature. Otto Freundlich positions himself in the art field as a visual and a philosopher artist. To his mind, this renewal occurs not only through the intervention of the artist, but also by visual perception of works. The apparent heterogeneity of his artistic journey is underpinned by a strong coherence. This thesis examines his works of art andwritings diachronically as a whole, on one hand, and the changes and causes of their emergence synchronically, on the other. This research is founded on the methodology used for artist's monograph: a detailed study of the original sources written mainly in Gothic German, the contribution of unpublished sources, the analysis of works and of the context of their genesis within the international network Otto Freundlich weaves with the art field actors living in Germany and in France. This approach not only enables to correct some historical data, but also provides fresh elements in the iconographical, iconological and conceptualinterpretations of his works, separately and taken as a whole as well

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
