Lureault, Nathalie. "Recherches sur la sculpture romaine polychrome." Paris 4, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004PA040285.
Full textThis study is about a category of roman sculptures found in the imperial world, from August reign to the 5th century. It is limited to coloured sculptures (statues and relieves) ; out of the architectural ones, and all in rapport with humans or animals illustrations. Not rare, this kind of painted or gilded sculpture, in stone, is a source of questions. So besides the classical searches concerning for example geography or chronology, this search gives some technical answer for painting and gilding : pigments, supports and its preparation,. . . A distinction between craft shops, through the use of colours has been tried too. Some hypotheses about why have coloured those pieces are possible too. They will be described here. For this, a examination about a possible meaning has been done ; idea directly in rapport with the ancient way of thinking, in literature but in other way, to daily fashion too. To finish an appendix completes this study. It contains some histograms and tables, to help the reader for a better comprehension

Full textFor the first time, the corpus of Roman wood sculptures from Burgundy is gathered together in a catalogue, with added photographic documents and bibliography. The twenty-five sculptures are listed and studied from a stylistic, iconographic and technical point of view. In the XIIth century, an actual school of monastic wood sculpture seemed to develop within the boundaries of the duchy of Burgundy, bringing a great diversity as far as formal and technical contributions are concerned. The sculptures that are the most representative to help the understanding of those numerous contributions are thoroughly studied. Their stylistic relationships with manuscripts dating back from the Carolingian Renaissance, with the Ottonian sculpture and the contemporary monumental stone sculpture, are pointed out with the analysis of internal characteristics, setting apart different formal languages. The iconographic description shows the specific denotation used in the representation of the holy character. The technical processes of creation are compared through the direct examination of the sculptures and through the collection of usable information. For several pieces, a new dating was suggested; new sculptures and specific artists are brought to notice.The contributions of the wood sculpture from the Auvergne region are specified. The tradition of inserting relics into sculptures is put in relation to the relatively important influence it can have on the building of the shape. One chapter is dedicated to the methodology in the study of wood sculptures’ polychromes. The conservators-restorers play a crucial part in the act of scientifically collecting information attesting the evolution of artistic techniques. Some suggestions are put forward to improve the processes of examination and the collecting of information

Full textMuy pocas esculturas pétreas conservan su policromía original. El excepcional estado en el se mantienen las películas pictóricas al óleo del caso de estudio de esta tesis doctoral (el Sepulcro de Villaespesa de la catedral de Tudela, Navarra, España) sugiere que tanto la composición químico-mineral de la roca seleccionada por sus escultores como la composición de las películas pictóricas al óleo con las que se policromó dicha piedra, podrían ser responsables de su inesperada durabilidad. En el transcurso de esta tesis doctoral se prepararon probetas con distintas películas pictóricas al óleo sobre la arenisca del caso de estudio. Para hacer un análisis comparativo también se prepararon probetas con las mismas películas sobre otros soportes. Se monitorizó el pH y la conductividad el caso de estudio así como de todas probetas. A través del uso combinado de microscopía óptica, SEM-EDX y micro espectroscopía FT-IR se estudió la formación y envejecimiento de las películas al óleo identificó y se caracterizó la agregación de carboxilatos de calcio y plomo en algunas de las películas pictóricas al óleo con pigmentos de plomo. En aquellas películas al óleo con albayalde o minio que envejecieron durante cuatro años sobre substratos de arenisca y madera de pino, las reacciones de saponificación, la formación de ionómeros y la agregación de carboxilatos contribuyeron a generar estratos pictóricos menos ácidos, menos ionizados, menos hidrolizados y menos solubles. Dichas películas pictóricas se tornaron más ácidas e ionizadas tras envejecer, en las mismas condiciones medioambientales, sobre vidrio de microscopio. La comprensión de los mecanismos físico-químicos que gobiernan no solo el pH y la conductividad sino también las fuerzas adhesivas y cohesivas de estas películas a lo largo del tiempo, no es sencilla. Tanto los agregados minerales como la disponibilidad de iones que presentan sus substratos juegan un papel fundamental en la eventual formación, migración y agregación de carboxilatos de calcio y plomo no solo en su superficie, sino también en la interfase substrato-película pictórica. Cuando los mecanismos que gobiernan los equilibrios físico-químicos de estos sistemas pictóricos no se comprenden adecuadamente, los materiales y métodos empleados en su conservación así como las condiciones medioambientales en las que se mantienen pueden tener un efecto dramático en el comportamiento de estos sistemas pictóricos y comprometer su estabilidad a largo plazo.
Molt poques escultures pètries conserven la seua policromia original. L'excepcional estat de conservación en que es conserven les policromies del cas d'estudi d'aquesta Tesi Doctoral (el Sepulcre de Villaespesa de la catedral de Tudela, Navarra, Espanya) sugereix que tant la composició química-mineral i la porositat de les roques seleccionades pels artistes com la composició de les pel·lícules pictòriques a l'oli que van preparar per a policromar la pedra, podrien ser responsables de la seua inesperada durabilitat. Quan els mecanismes que governen els seus equilibris fisicoquímics no han estat compresos adequadament, els materials i mètodes emprats en la seua conservació així com les condicions mediambientals en què es mantenen poden tinder un efecte dramatic al comportament d'aquests sistemes pictòrics i comprometre la seua estabilitat a llarg termini. En aquesta tesi es van preparar provetes amb diferents pel·lícules pictòriques a l'oli sobre l'arenisca emprada en el cas d'estudi. També es van preparar provetes amb les mateixes pel·lícules sobre altres suports per fer una anàlisi comparatiu. Després de quatre anys d'envelliment natural, es va identificar i caracteritzar l'agregació de carboxilats de calci i plom en algunes de les provetes a través de l'ús combinat de microscòpia òptica, SEM-EDX i micro espectroscòpia FT-IR. També es monitarizaren el pH i la conductivitat de les provetes així com del cas d'estudi. En aquelles pel·lícules a l'oli amb blanc de plom o mini que van envellir durant quatre anys sobre substrats de gres i fusta de pi, les reaccions de saponificació, la formació de ionómeros i l'agregació de carboxilats van contribuir a generar estrats pictòrics menys àcids, menys ionitzats, menys hidrolitzats i menys solubles. Aquestes pel·lícules pictòriques es van tornar més àcides i ionitzades després envellir, en les mateixes condicions mediambientals, sobre vidre de microscopi. La comprensió dels mecanismes fisicoquímics que governen el seu pH i la seua conductivitat així com les forces adhesives i cohesives d'aquestes pel·lícules al llarg del temps no és senzilla. Tant els agregats minerals com la disponibilitat de ions que presenten els seus substrats juguen un paper fonamental en l'eventual formació, migració i agregació de carboxilats de calci i plom no només en la seua superfície, sinó també en la interfase substrat-pel·lícula pictòrica.

Full textLes sculpteurs-restaurateurs et les peintres-restaurateurs sélectionnés visent avant tout une présentation jugée digne des sculptures médiévales qui passent entre leurs mains. Ils sont, pour ce faire, imperméables à toute notion d’authenticité. Les aspects religieux primant et dans un contexte de forte pilarisation, ils adoptent sur cette question une position monolithique, alors même que la réflexion au sujet de la restauration de la sculpture polychromée se développe, notamment au sein de la Commission royale des Monuments. Dans les traitements de restauration, les Blanchaert, les Bressers et Jules Helbig font preuve d’un vrai souci archéologique mais rarement de réflexion critique sur l’opportunité ou pas de reconstituer des éléments lacunaires, sur le bien fondé de l’adjonction des attributs, ou sur les pratiques de décapage et de repolychromie. Ce travail doctoral démontre par ailleurs que les nouvelles polychromies néo-gothiques, en particulier celles confectionnées par les Bressers, sont souvent le reflet, voire des copies, des anciennes polychromies quand elles étaient bien conservées.
Les discussions menées au sein de la Gilde ont eu un impact non négligeable sur la question du démembrement des autels baroques et néo-classiques ainsi que sur la création du nouveau mobilier néo-gothique en Belgique.
L’étude d’une série de retables néo-gothiques apporte de nouvelles clefs de lecture sur la conception des programmes iconographiques globaux, la répartition des retables dans l'espace ecclésial, la typologie des œuvres, la conception des compositions et le style adopté pour les groupes sculptés. L'influence de Pugin a pu être montrée, notamment dans le caractère très hiérarchisé donné aux œuvres, et cela à tous les niveaux de la représentation.
Dans son ensemble, ce travail doctoral offre une contribution significative sur l’historicisme et l’histoire des mentalités.

Full textThe present thesis is based on the study of a selection of polychrome wood sculptures representing the iconographic typology of Christ the King, dressed in tunic or tunicato and nailed to the cros, dating from the Middle Ages (9th-13th centuries) and currently located in different European countries (Spain, France, Italy, Switzerland, Belgium, Germany, Sweden). The methodological proposal starts from a historiographical perspective applied to the reality of the existing or documented sculptures, selected on the basis of a univocal definition of the above-mentioned typology and consequently on the application of a solid classification criterion. Each art piece is studied both detachedly and comparatively, that is, by relating it to the other objects examined in the writing, and also, when necessary, to works of other techniques that offer the possibility of configuring / finding parallels with them. The thesis is divided into two volumes. The first one consists of four chapters, divided into sections. The first chapter sets out the approach to the subject examined, the objectives established and the methods of study used for the development of the research; it then collects the historiographical contributions on the medieval sculptures under study, reconstructing the state of the question and highlighting the contributions that have given rise to the approach to the problem. The second presents an excursus on a selection of literary and iconographic sources in which we find the historical, theological, cultural and typological roots of the iconography that concerns us. In the third we argue our proposal for an unequivocal definition of the iconographic typology of Christ the King tunicato; from this definition we achieve the criterion established for the identification and classification of carvings, which consists of the element of the tunic, which stands as constant; based on this, we carry out a comparative analysis between the selected works, checking for each case its relevance within the work, and evidencing the presence or absence of variable elements that also define and identify the typology. In the fourth, we expose our conclusions, indicating a proposal for an iconographic taxonomy, leaving open the writing for future analysis of other objects that respond to the established criterion and highlighting the empiricism that characterizes this research. The second volume consists of an analytical catalogue of the sculptures under study, structured according to their current geographical location and made up of data sheets, which have been configured following the basic parameters of cataloguing a work and contain updated information on each copy of the corpus, including the photographic references of the works.

Full textThe undertaking of this work is to analyze the forms and functions that the landscape can take in a corpus of posthomeric epic texts. The Argonautica of Apollonius of Rhodes and its late anonymous rewriting The Orphic Argonautica, the Posthomerica of Quintus Smyrnaeus, the Ilioupersis of Triphiodorus, and The Dionysiaca of Nonnus Panopolitanus provide us with a fruitful field of investigation for the analysis of the literary representations of the landscape as transhistorical. Firstly, our texts operate one transformation of the archaic epic landscape that is first the image of the world with which it merges (the conformity placed between shield, island, and world) by separating the landscape from this equation and giving it greater autonomy. The world is a mosaic of autonomous landscapes that gain texture as they take on a dimension of identity. The polymorphism of the landscape then gives its moving texture to the world of the ancient Greeks : the plastic and artist dimension is borrowed by the Epic text to put into words the images of the world, which reveal epic landforms. A variety of landscape patterns emerges and opens the literary intertext to the heterogeneity of artistic forms. From this fusion of process and forms, a singularity arises, a singularity particularly antique of the perception and the translation of the landscape : wonder. Landscape and wonder mingle so narrowly as to substitute one for the other : this is a possible definition of the ancient landscape from the Hellenistic period. But the landscape as thus identified and constructed also belongs to the world the image of which it contributes to form. It is clearly localized in a geographical perspective : the landscape becomes a vivid picture of the world and the former offers the latter its identity by its unique topical characteristics. It is a form of regional identification and it is sometimes confined to the vernacular. The landscape becomes an instrument for intellectual and cultural promotion. Between formal diversity and local singularity, the landscape travels between fiction and reality : its construction methods borrow from the literary and artistic and then extend to nature. The epic genre, characterised by innovative intertextuality, makes the landscape the image of the process of transposition and adaptation. As a manifestation of the exercise of a singular and then a collective ancient subjectivity, the landscape is an instrument for measuring the unfolding of the imagination at work in the complex process of literary reception and cultural transmission ; the ancient landscape between transmission and invention, opens itself up to the everyday and social experience. Its ancient existence is effective

Full textThe internship focused on the conservation and restoration of a polychrome wood sculpture, God the Father. The sculpture dates to the late 18th century and belongs to the Museu da Misericórdia do Porto. The intervention took place in the Workshops of the Department of Conservation and Restoration at the School of Arts of the Catholic University of Porto. A historical and iconographic assessment of the artwork was carried out, as well as an analytical study and a subsequent conservation and restoration intervention. Since the sculpture God the Father is a religious object with a museological purpose, it was submitted to a conservative treatment. This way, we avoid creating a "false background" due to the absence of documents and photographs of it, as well as the reduced or non-existence of similar artworks with the same iconographic character. In order to understand the historical and artistic context of the materials and decorative techniques, the following analytical techniques were carried out: fluorescence induced by ultraviolet radiation, dino-lite photographs, wood identification, raman and xrf. The intervention on the cultural item was carried out considering its physical stabilization, restoration of the functionality, and the return of the reading. The latter was altered as a result of the emergence of the preparation layer when the polychromy was detached. There were several challenges during the process, which generated some questions; however, these were consensually overcome taking into consideration the sculpture and its artistic purpose. The lack of documentation with information regarding the sculpture has made it a challenge, requiring extensive research in order to decipher its attribution and date of execution. As for the author and the place where it remained until it belonged to the Museum of Santa Casa da Misericórdia, they are still unknown.
