Taschian, Helen. "Naturalism and Libertinism in Seventeenth-Century Italian Painting". Thesis, University of California, Santa Barbara, 2014. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3612041.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
The work of Caravaggio, which was recognized as revolutionary in his own time and exerted a profound influence on seventeenth century painting all over Europe, has prompted a wide range of interpretations among modern art historians. Some, emphasizing the controversy generated by his religious pictures, have seen him as a daringly irreverent artist, while others have found his unidealized "naturalistic" style fundamentally well-suited to the spirit of the Catholic Counter-Reformation. Some detect a boldly overt homoeroticism in many of his pictures, while others claim not to see it at all. Some understand him to have worked in an unprecedentedly direct, almost visceral way, while others emphasize his sympathy with new directions in the sciences or the intellectual sophistication with which he played his naturalistic style against the precedents of classical and earlier Renaissance art.
Caravaggio's difficult personality has also lent itself to different readings. Some see him as a sociopath, if not a psychopath, while others see him calculatedly performing the role of social rebel in a manner that looks forward to the self-consciously dissident posturings of modern artists. Some art-historians have been led to conclude that he had highly-developed non-conformist values and tendencies that could be described as "libertine" in at least some of the varied senses in which that word was used during his time.
The aim of this dissertation is to discuss the relation of Caravaggio's work and personal example to his immediate art-historical and cultural context, but also to trace their influence on an ever-more-disparate group of artists active in the seventeenth century in order to see whether his style, sometimes characterized as "Baroque Naturalism," actually implied a set of values beyond its efficacy as an artistic strategy, whether a commitment to it implied or was understood to imply a non-conformist or libertine orientation that might be a matter of deep conviction on the part of the artist or a position felt to be appropriate to certain themes or in certain contexts.
The first chapter examines Caravaggio himself, while the second discusses three artists—Giovanni Baglione, Orazio Gentileschi, and Guido Reni—who knew him personally and responded to his work as it burst so dramatically on the scene in the very first years of the century. The third chapter discussed three artists who were active shortly afterward, whose engagement with Caravaggio testifies to a wider field of influence: Valentin de Boulogne, Domenico Fetti, and Guido Cagnacci. The final chapter sets two very different artists—Salvator Rosa and Nicolas Poussin—side by side in order to expose both the radically different responses to Caravaggio's legacy and the diverse senses in which the word "libertine" must be understood.
While the evidence does seem to suggest that at least some artists utilized Caravaggesque naturalism in order to invoke a well-defined "alternative tradition," one that was understood to imply a certain range of values, very few committed themselves to his approach strictly or for very long. Poussin rejected it emphatically. Yet Poussin, too, deliberately positioned himself on the margins of the Roman art world in order to cultivate a distinctive approach to art, one that seems to have been consciously based on deeply-held philosophical convictions. The lesson seems to be that Caravaggio's example made it possible for later artists to develop strategies with which to express their dissent from the prevailing values and practices of their time, and that even if their work did not look like his, they were indebted to him.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This thesis analyses selected paintings and aspects of life of the Italian Renaissance in terms of the aesthetic properties of sadistic and masochistic symptomatologies and creative production, as these have been explored by philosophers such as Michel Foucault, Roland Barthes, Marcel Henaff, and Gilles Deleuze. One question which arises from this analysis, and is considered in this thesis, is of the relation between sexual perversion and history, and in particular between experiences of violence, (dis)pleasure and desire, and historically specific forms of discourse and power, such as legislation on rape; myths and practices concerning marriage alliance; the depiction of such myths and practices in art; religion; and family structures. A second question which this thesis explores is the manners in which sadistic and masochistic artistic production function politically, to bolster pre-existing gender ideologies or to subvert them. Finally, this thesis considers the relation between sadism and masochism and visuality, both by bringing literary models of perversion to an interpretation of paintings, and by exploring the amenability of different genres of visual art to sadism and masochism respectively.

Resumo: Procedimento surgido na Itália central durante o Quatrocentos, o uso de modelos plásticos auxiliares estava entre as diversas etapas que compunham o longo processo de realização de uma pintura. Essa prática artística consistia na elaboração de estatuetas de argila ou cera que deveriam atuar como modelos para o pintor. Podiam ser vestidos ou não, utilizados como figuras isoladas ou em uma composição. Devido aos frágeis materiais com os quais eram feitos e ao desinteresse dos contemporâneos em preservá-los pouquíssimos resistiram à ação do tempo, e os meios agora disponíveis para atestar sua existência são sobretudo a análise de pinturas e desenhos, de inventários e da literatura artística. Com efeito, embora dispersos, há um grande número de testemunhos a respeito dessa prática nos escritos sobre arte, e através desses registros é possível compreender as funções e o valor atribuídos a esses modelos no processo criativo dos pintores. O momento de maior difusão dessa prática parece ter se dado durante o século XVI. Os testemunhos existentes apontam para um uso disseminado de tais modelos entre os artistas italianos, tanto em ambiente romano-toscano quanto setentrional. Entretanto, a partir do final daquele século também é possível perceber que seu emprego começou a ser questionado, ora sendo incentivado, ora reprovado. A análise desse período, portanto, oferece a possibilidade de demarcar essa prática artística e, ao mesmo tempo, aquilatar sua extensão e seu alcance.
Abstract: Procedure emerged in central Italy during the Quattrocento, the use of auxiliary plastic models was among the various stages that made up the long process of creating a painting. This practice consisted in developing artistic figurines of clay or wax, which should act as models for the painter. They could be dressed up or not, used as isolated figures or in a composition. Due to the fragile materials with which they were made and the lack of interest of the contemporaries in preserving them, just a few could resist the action of time, and the resources now available to attest to their existence are primarily the analysis of paintings and drawings, of inventories and of the artistic literature. Actually, although sparse, there are a lot of testimonies about this practice in the writings on art, and through these records it is possible to understand the functions and the value attributed to these models in the creative process of painters. The moment of greatest diffusion of this practice seems to have taken place during the sixteenth century. The existing evidences point to a widespread use of such models among Italian artists, both in central and northern Italy. However, from the end of the century it is also possible to notice that this practice came into question, sometimes being encouraged and sometimes disapproved. The analysis of this period, therefore, offers the possibility of demarcating this artistic practice and, at the same time, assessing its extent and scope.

Macneil, Georgina Sybella. "Giovannino Battista: the boy Baptist in quattrocento Italian art". Thesis, The University of Sydney, 2013. http://hdl.handle.net/2123/10299.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This thesis explores the imagery of the young John the Baptist in Renaissance art. The phenomenon of John’s juvenescence has been noted but insufficiently explored by previous scholarship. The present study reassesses the figure of the youthful Baptist by means of rigorous theological exegesis of biblical, apocryphal and late medieval textual sources and a thorough investigation of the visual corpus. Beginning with the mosaics of the Florentine Baptistery, a handful of narrative cycles locate the onset of John’s prophetic career in the desert at an ever-earlier point in his life. However, it was not until the mid-fifteenth century that the boy John was released from the confines of his own narrative to become an independent figure in devotional imagery. Innovative altarpieces by Filippo Lippi commissioned by the Medici family in the late 1450s and 60s are shown to be crucial in promoting and disseminating this new vision of Florence’s beloved patron saint. The thesis demonstrates the enormous popularity of the youthful Baptist in the following decades, first in Florence and subsequently elsewhere in Italy, and interrogates the significance of his presence as infant, boy and adolescent across a wide range of pictorial and sculptural representations. One of the most famous examples of the child John, Leonardo da Vinci’s “Virgin of the Rocks”, is recontextualised within this existing pictorial current, to show that this masterpiece is at once more traditional and more innovative in its treatment of subject matter than has hitherto been recognised. Key narrative moments, such as a meeting between Christ and John, and new ways of visualising the intimate bond between the two children formulated towards the end of the fifteenth century, including physical embraces and shared exposure of vulnerable infant flesh, are also investigated. Through such investigations, the thesis aims to advance understanding of the multiple and intersecting roles played by the boy Baptist in Renaissance art and devotion.

Collier, Carly Elizabeth. "British artists and early Italian art c. 1770-1845 : the pre Pre-Raphaelites?" Thesis, University of Warwick, 2013. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/62965/.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This thesis examines the hitherto largely-overlooked multifarious response by British artists to early Italian art which pre-dated the activity of the Pre-Raphaelites and their greatest champion, John Ruskin. The title of this thesis does not endeavour to claim that the artists under examination consciously formed or naturally constituted a group with clearly defined common interests and aims, as was the case with their aforementioned successors. Rather, the collective ‘pre’ Pre-Raphaelites is intended to demonstrate that, contrary to the impression given by the standard scholarship on this area, there were British artists prior to the dawn of the Pre-Raphaelites who found worth in periods of art beyond what was conventionally considered both generally tasteful and also useful for an artist to imitate, and who indeed made many of the important steps which facilitated the Pre-Raphaelites’ rediscovery of early Italian art in the late 1840s. The temporal span of the main investigative thrust of this thesis is, approximately, 1770 - 1845. Its structure is intended to reflect the multiplicity of both the catalysts and then the subsequent responses of British artists to the Italian primitives. The first part of the thesis comprises a number of chapters which offer a broad contextual framework - encompassing analyses of taste, artistic education and historiography - within which the varied activities of the artists explored in the subsequent chapters are set. Parts two and three reveal the very different approaches taken by a series of artists in the decades either side of the turn of the century in their attempts to study, learn from and sometimes emulate the visual lessons of the past. Thus this thesis rescues the often marginalised contributions of a selection of British artists to the resurgence of interest in early Italian art, and demonstrates how fundamental their interpretive filter was for the nature of the quasi-revolution in taste in the last half of the nineteenth century.

Toreno, Elisabetta. "Fifteenth-century Italian and Netherlandish female portraiture in context : a legal-anthropological interpretation". Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2015. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/6728/.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This thesis contributes to the study of portraiture by delivering an appraisal of female portraits produced in the urban areas of Italy and Flanders in the fifteenth century. Scholarship on individual and selections of these items exists, but it is fragmented and influenced by Marxist-feminist views about genders and their roles in the system of patriarchy. The term ‘patriarchy’ describes a socio-political and economic organization that is male-controlled. By applying patrilineal rules of patrimonial and political transmission through social stabilisers such as the institution of marriage, it disenfranchises women from decisions that affect their life directly, and ultimately their sense of entitlement. However, in order to function successfully, it creates forms of compensation that diminish the risks of uprising by the marginalised. Concerning women, this could be seen as their feminine experience of these conditions, which feminist analyses tend to overlook. With an original survey of one-hundred and four individual female portraits dated c.1400-c.1500, this thesis explores the relationship between the image and such experience during the rise of entrepreneurial communities, because these groups relied principally on this system to prosper individually and collectively. For the task, this thesis uses a legal-anthropological method that eschews the Marxist-feminist trappings. Its results show that female agency in the domestic environment and the dowry-system produced a binary relationship between men and women and forms of public and private recognition that challenge the basic notion of female marginalisation. Secondly, the Christocentric practices developed by evangelical groups from the early-thirteenth century proved very popular amongst women because they offered varieties of autonomy and public intervention that were otherwise precluded to them. Thirdly, humanism affected a small but important group of women, whose desire for learning challenged conventional propaganda about female inadequacies. This thesis explains the ways in which these facets are integrated in the likenesses of this survey. It demonstrates that fifteenth-century spectatorship received two types of stimuli. One that invested on an affinity of appreciation of the social values of female beauty, fashion and domestic skills, and that articulated ideas of commonwealth and kinship. One other that sought affinity that was more intimate and consistent with the sitter’s psychological condition. These strands ramified into social and ethical discourses that this thesis charts and examines. The one-hundred and four portraits featured in this survey originated predominantly in Flanders and central-northern Italy, the early strongholds of European mercantile groups. Current scholarship compares Netherlandish and Italian portraiture in terms of modernity versus obsolescence because the former developed naturalistic portraits in located backgrounds in c.1430, whilst the latter preferred the profile format until the end of the century. This thesis contests this polarisation because visual and contextual evidence together suggest that sociocultural interests informed choices of formats and the circulation of likenesses to the effect that modernity in portraiture cannot be measured in mere technical terms. Fifteenth-century Netherlandish portraits are, indeed, the earliest examples of modern portraiture but this phenomenon must be understood, this thesis explains, as the product of concomitant conditions that include new media and new attitudes towards the self, caused by the secularisation of culture and the revival of Greco-Roman literature. This thesis also contributes to the knowledge of the genre because it uncovers types of female portraiture that are new to the existing assessments, thereby setting the parameters for a classification of the topic from the perspective of the feminine experience of her own mimesis.

DeLancey, Julia Anne. "Aspects of colour modelling in Florence from 1480-1530". Thesis, University of St Andrews, 1997. http://hdl.handle.net/10023/15316.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This thesis sets out to examine two new issues; the use of the colour modelling system in Florence in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth-centuries and the way it impacts the relationship between six artists who lived and worked for the most part in Florence during that period. Among these artists exist strong ties of studios, common patrons and working locations. Florence has traditionally been identified with disegno and Venice with colorito, although these associations are gradually being overturned; by looking at the clear and consistent use by Florentine artists of colour for expressive and volumetric means, it is hoped to gain a greater and more sophisticated understanding of these relationships. The first chapter looks at the work of Domenico Ghirlandaio and his bottega, one of the largest and for our purposes most influential studios in Florence; for comparison and also because of his role in the issue, Filippino Lippi enters as well. A chapter on Michelangelo, Ghirlandaio's most famous pupil, follows; the cleaned frescoes of the Sistine chapel provide one of the main foci of discussion for colour in the thesis, due to their great fame and dramatic colour use. These are discussed together with the Doni Tondo and the London Entombment. The middle two chapters focus on Andrea del Sarto, Fra Baitolommeo and the San Marco compagnia, the artists to stay in Florence after the departure of Leonardo, Michelangelo and Raphael and who taught many of the next generation of artists. The last two chapters deal with Jacopo Pontormo and Rosso Florentino; as heirs and successors to these earlier artists, Rosso and Pontormo continue in the use of this same colour modelling tradition, but employing it with dramatically different results.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This thesis challenges existing readings of paintings by Alberto Burri which discuss the work in relation to matter or the body or the psyche. The reading of Burri's Ferro, Sacco, Combustione Legno and Grande Legno G59 demonstrates how the work effects a dynamic quality of alternation between the skin and 'brute' matter. The signification of the work shifts between two types of materiality - that of sheet metal, hessian, plastic and plywood and that of the wounded human skin and psyche.It is argued that the ambiguity of the materiality of Burri's paintings effects a dynamic reciprocity between subject and object. The author argues that Burri's painting alerts the viewer to the reciprocities between industrial materials, corporeal surfaces and subjectivities, to the continuities and ambiguities with and between the skin and work

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This interdisciplinary study of the male and female nude explores the cultural, social and political context in sixteenth-century Italy in order to discover new connections between images of the nude and everyday life. Many of the sources concerning behaviour, undressing and sexual activities in diverse settings, which are believed to reflect actual behaviour (Rudolf Bell, 1999), were written in Italian at a time when the printing industry began to flourish. This new literature, which has received scant attention from art historians, reached a wider audience and directly completed with prescriptive writings, thus challenging social and religious conventions. My investigation has brought to light important connections between the focus on beauty in daily life and images of the male and female nude in art works, such as the muscular and virile male nude in Florence and the beautiful, seductive female nude in Venice. As symbols of beauty, courtesans participated in Venetian civic spectacles, while Florentine youths engaging in competitive sports in the public arena were widely admired for their physique. Sources pertaining to artistic practices regarding the observation of the live model reveal that artists sought the same physical qualities as those appreciated by society at large. The investigation of Giorgio Vasari's Lives (Florence, 1550 and 1568) not only underscores the central importance of the nude in both editions but also revises the conclusions drawn by Svetlana Alpers (1969), demonstrating that the different notions of perfection can be pre-dated to the first edition. Writings produced after the Lives point to a continued interest in the nude as the most difficult and beautiful form in art while constraining its representation in both erotic and non-erotic works available to a wider audience. The new guidelines are consistent with prescriptive behaviour books that underscore social and gender distinctions. The nude remains acceptable for the elite and for propaganda purposes. By contrast, Vincenzo Danti and Benvenuto Celini continue to promote the nude as a autonomously created form suited to a range of settings.

Haughton, Ann. "Mythology and masculinity : a study of gender, sexuality and identity in the art of the Italian Renaissance". Thesis, University of Warwick, 2014. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/68267/.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
The concerns of this thesis are aligned with approaches to the historical study of sexuality, gender and identity in art, society and culture which are increasingly articulate and questioning at present. However, it is distinct from these recent studies because it redirects attention toward a stimulating encounter with the past through new theoretical proposals and interpretive perspectives on the manner in which mythology asserts itself as the vehicle for expressing male same-sex erotic behaviour, gender performance and masculine identity in the visual culture of the Italian Renaissance. By following a methodological, historiographical and interdisciplinary mode of enquiry, this thesis formulates and expresses new perspectives which engage with the representation of masculine concerns relating to these historically specific matters in the visual domain of the period. Conventional historical definitions of traditional art historical models of masculinity are also called into question through reassessment of how the function of the ideal male nude body in Renaissance art was shaped by particular social and historical contexts in different regions of Italy during the sixteenth century. These interrelated themes are approached in three stages. Firstly, there is interpretation of the complex and convoluted meanings within the narrative of the mythic sources, as well as decoding and contextualising of the symbolic messages of the images in question. Secondly, I assemble and examine the textual evidence that exists about erotic and social relationships between males in the Renaissance so that their historical significance can be tracked and placed in the context of the tension which existed between Renaissance Italian judicial and religious proscription and commonplace behaviour. And thirdly, I offer comprehensive analyses and interpretive frameworks which are informed by and based upon a wide range of written as well as visual sources together with evaluation of competing theoretical perceptions. The main arguments are presented in three chapters: The central theme of Chapter One is gender performance with specific focus upon the integral and didactic role of pederasty in visual representations of myths which conflate erotic desire between males and philosophical allegory. The historical phenomenon of pederastic relationships between males is addressed through interrogation of the pictorial vocabulary of Benvenuto Cellini’s marble Apollo and Hyacinth (1545), and Giulio Romano’s drawing of Apollo and Cyparissus (1524).The arguments and theories discussed and analysed in Chapter Two deal with Michelangelo’s depiction of Ovidian mythic narratives. Here, close attention is paid to the intricate nuances and sophisticated iconography used by Michelangelo for three highly finished presentation drawings - The Rape of Ganymede (1532), The Punishment of Tityus (1532) and The Fall of Phaeton (1533) - which Michelangelo presented to Tommaso De’ Cavalieri. The chapter aims to encourage a re-evaluation of these three drawings as a meaningful and connected narrative endowed with significant cultural and personal significance relating to their creator’s anguish about physical desire and its relationship to what modernity terms as ‘sexuality’. In Chapter Three, I consider how several works featuring the theme of Apollo flaying Marsyas can be read as articulations of the imaginative and ideological structures of the formation and preservation of masculine identities. The chapter addresses the iconographic visibility of the theme of flaying and explores the philosophical and literary metaphoric significance of this myth. Primacy is given to destabilising dominant conceptualizations of the heroic male nude as a subject in art throughout all these selected case studies. Centred as they are on sexual attraction or destruction rather than idealisation of the male figure, these chapters offer a revaluation of ways of seeing the archetypal heroic nude in a myriad of ways.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
The dissertation recontextualizes the iconographical developments of the Last Judgement scene in Central Italian mural painting in the late thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries by exploring the theological and political contexts in which these scenes were produced. Two striking events mark the evolution of the Late Medieval Last Judgement scene: first, the revival of the 'complete' Last Judgement after a period of contraction, and second, the separation of Heaven and Hell from the Last Judgement. Both of these features reflect an increasing anxiety about the fate of the soul in the afterlife: a fate which, by the end of the thirteenth century, had moved from the end of time itself to the moment of an individual's death. The first chapter concerns Pietro Cavallini's fresco in S.Cecilia in Trastevere (c.1293), its place within the Roman tradition of Last Judgement scene, and its role as the earliest surviving monumental example of the 'complete' Last Judgement. Chapter II concerns the frescoes of S.Maria Donnaregina in Naples (c.1317-23), patronized by the Angevin queen, Maria of Hungary. In 1266 the Papacy conferred on Charles I of Anjou the Kingdom of Naples in exchange for defense of the Papal States, and the Angevins became the chief administrators of civil and penal justice throughout the Papal States and independent Guelf city-states. A discussion of Angevin iconography establishes a connection between Angevin self-image and the Last Judgement scene. Chapter III is devoted to Giotto's Last Judgement at the Arena Chapel in Padua (c.1305) and its imitator at S.Maria Maggiore in Tuscania (c.1320). The chapter includes a discussion of thirteenth-century papal decrees concerning the fate of the soul in the afterlife, the appearance of the penitent patron at the foot of the cross, and the possibility of a Papal-Angevin-Guelf influence on the production of both of these frescoes. Chapter IV on the "Angevin Connection" begins with a reinterpretation of the iconography of the Florence Baptistery mosaics (c.1271-1330) in terms of their patronage by the Church and the exclusively Guelf Guild of the Calimala. The first instance of the separation of Paradise and Inferno from the Last Judgement, in the Magdalen Chapel of the Bargello in Florence (c.1322), is discussed in light of the civic function of the chapel and of Angevin control of the office of podesta. The relief panels of the façade of Orvieto Cathedral (c.1290-1330) are also considered in view of Papal and Angevin domination of that city. In Chapter V the influence of the Magdalen Chapel's separation of Heaven and Hell is linked to the increasing secularization of the Last Judgement scene as evidenced in the Campo Santo, Pisa (c.1330) and the nave of S.Croce, Florence (c.1330). The revival of the 'complete' Last Judgement scene in Late Medieval Central Italy was the result of theological changes concerning the afterlife, the rise of the penitential movement, and the formation of the Papal-Angevin-Guelf alliance for whom the triumphant scene of judgement became emblematic. The individual's anxiety about the fate of his soul at the moment of death and the appropriation of the Last Judgement for use in secular contexts affected the separation of Heaven and Hell from the Last Judgement and brought about the secularization of a traditionally sacred scene.

The conclusions from the pictorial evidence is that there were material differences in the appearance of books in the duecento and trecento and that gold tooling was used to decorate books from about 1320, a hundred years earlier than previously thought. The thesis also considers how, and to what extent, medieval viewers related to images of books and whether it is possible to identify individual styles in the way artists represented books. There are four case-studies that are used to investigate how images of books were used, and what religious, social, political and psychological purposes were served. Part of the methodology is to identify and study those points of change when books appear or when the way they are shown changes. This is in the belief that when circumstances alter, the artist responds consciously and creatively rather than by imitation. A number of works of art are studied in detail and the thesis proposes new interpretations for, inter alia, the Stefaneschi Altarpiece, Guido de Graziano'sDossal of St Francis, theAnnunciation scene in the Arena Chapel, the RucellaiMadonna, and the S Caterina Polyptych. The case-studies have demonstrated that the image of a book was one of the most powerful visual signs, certainly for the period and region to which this study has been devoted. It shows that in the decades around 1300 the book became an established attribute in altarpieces, the book displaced the rotullus as the symbol of authority, and the book became the dominant attribute of the VirginMary in scenes of the Annunciation, displacing earlier formats. The book was the symbol of learning and therefore a key attribute for the mendicant orders and especially the Dominican Order.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This study examines the artistic output in the diocese of Grosseto, which was part of Sienese controlled territories in Medieval and Renaissance times, and sheds light on the artists who worked there, the works that they produced, the purpose of these works and the way that these were shaped by local patrons, popular beliefs and long- standing traditions. It encompasses a period in the history of Siena that starts in c. 1380 with the political turmoil that followed the fall of the government of the Nine in 1355, and ends in c. 1480, around the time of Pandolfo Petrucci’s exile from the city. A contextualized overview of the activity of artists from Siena and beyond, such as Matteo di Giovanni, Sassetta, Vecchietta Francesco di Giorgio, Giovanni da Ponte and Andrea Guardi in the diocese of Grosseto is provided by means of visual examination and new documentary evidence. Relevant case studies offer a new perspective on the development of local visual imagery, the style and iconography of panel paintings, sculptures and fresco cycles and how these related to local devotional practices and patronage. The study shows that the development of independent taste in commissioning and acquiring artworks transcended geographical boundaries and political influence, and that original developments took place alongside the imitation of imported models. This research contributes to a new understanding of the relationship between Siena and Grosseto and proposes that notwithstanding Sienese influence, other cultural models were available, and that these were adapted to suit local requirements. A thorough investigation of local patronage establishes that this involved civic, religious and lay sources and that these shaped civic rituals and devotional responses to the cult of patron saints. It brings to light a vivid, yet complex image whereby all the realms of society interacted and benefitted from cultural exchange.

Resumo: Sebastiano Ricci tornou-se um pintor de especiais e particulares ações nos mercados de artes de Veneza e da Inglaterra, durante o século XVIII. Ele soube agir como artista e negociador e conseguiu relacionar-se com os principais mecenas do período, em especial com dois dos mais importantes difusores da sua arte: Joseph Smith, Cônsul inglês, e Francesco Algarotti, Conde veneziano - ambos ligados ao processo de difusão e discussão dos princípios racionais associados ao iluminismo europeu. Em cartas enviadas e recebidas pelo artista, e por alguns de seus mecenas, nota-se uma variada abordagem dos meios de compra e venda de obras e arte. As cartas também revelam uma valorização ou redescoberta dos modos e temas da arte de Paolo Veronese, reconhecíveis na obra de Sebastiano Ricci intitulada Arquimedes se recusa a seguir o soldado, pertencente a Fundação Cultural Ema Gordon Klabin, de São Paulo
Abstract: Sebastiano Ricci became a painter of special and private actions around the market of arts from Venice and England, during the XVIII century. He has known how to act as an artist and a negotiator and could relate himself with the main Maecenas of this period, especially with two of the most importants diffusers of his art: Joseph Smith,British Consul, and Francesco Algarotti,Venetian Earl - both connected with the process of propagation and discussion of the rational principles associated with the European Enlightenment. Analyzing letters that were sent and received by the artist and for some of his maecenas, is possible to realize a variety of approach about sorts of arts marketing. These letters show a recovery or a rediscovery about modes and themes of Paolo Veronese's art which can be recognized in the work of Sebastiano Ricci entitled Arquimedes se recusa a seguir o soldado, that belongs to Fundação Cultural Ema Gordon Klabin

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Abstract
The purpose of this article is to interpret a selection of El Greco’s Italian paintings
(1560-1576) based on Bible texts in which ideas current during the Catholic Counter-
Reformation are symbolised. At the age of nineteen El Greco, who was born in Crete in
1541 and was initially an icon painter in the Byzantine tradition, went to Venice. Through
study and experiment, and by following the examples of other artists who had achieved artistic
mastery and was of proven Catholic orthodoxy, he educated himself as an artist in the
Western manner. Even during his years as an apprentice El Greco’s art is proof that he aspired
to the highest humanly accessible values exemplified by Renaissance artistic theory,
humanism and Christian spirituality — all of which later came to fruition in an unprecedented
original combination in Toledo, Spain, where he settled permanently in 1577.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
L’apparition de l’image du Mongol dans les peintures italiennes est un phénomène particulier et marginal aux XIIIe et XIVe siècles. Notre thèse s’interroge et analyse comment les artistes représentent cette nouvelle image de l’autre, si étrangère et siimpensable, et considère la formation et la transformation des images dans différents contextes. L’image du Mongol s’inscrit dans l’histoire transculturelle qui correspond à la période de la Pax Mongolica s’étendant entre 1250 et 1350. Après la conquête mongole, l’Empire mongol construisit une période de paix dans le vaste territoire de l’Eurasie. L’autorité mongole fit un grand effort pour faciliter les routes commerciales, elle construisit un réseau de routes qui permit aux marchands, ambassadeurs et missionnaires de circuler facilement entre l’Europe et l’Asie. A partir de ce moment, les figures mongoles, comme image d’altérité, pénètrent, d’une manière anachronique, dans les narrations évangéliques, comme l’Adoration des mages, la Crucifixion, la Pentecôte et la Résurrection. Elles ne jouent pas toujours un rôle péjoratif, mais changent leur image selon les contextes et les moments : elles ont été représentées comme Gog et Magog à la fin des temps, soldat partageant la tunique du Christ, spectateur et témoin devant le martyr et la Crucifixion, et rois orientaux adorant l’enfant Jésus. Tout cela constitue, dans une certaine mesure, une image oscillatoire qui crée une tension entre la terreur et l’espoir. Notre thèse tente de penser cette complexité du contexte dans la représentation de la figure mongole et dans ce processus, de démontrer comment l’image donne, à son tour, une visibilité des mentalités de la fin du Moyen ÂgeThe appearance of Mongol images in Italian paintings is a particular and marginal phenomenon in the late 13th and 14th centuries. My thesis examines and analyses how artists represent this new image of the Other, so foreign and so unthinkable, and considers the formation and transformation of images in different contexts. The Mongol image inscribed in a transcultural history corresponds to the period of the Pax Mongolica between 1250 and 1350. After the Mongol conquest, the Mongol Empire built a period of peace in the vast territory of the Eurasia. The Mongolian authority made a great effort to facilitate the trade routes, and built a network of roads that allowed merchants, ambassadors and missionaries to circulate easily between Europe and Asia. From this moment, the Mongol image, as an image of otherness, penetrates into evangelical narrations in an anachronistic way, such as the Adoration of the Magi, the Crucifixion, Pentecost and the Resurrection. The role of Mongol is not univocally negative. It changes according to the moments and contexts: they were represented as Gog and Magog at the end of time; as soldier dividing the tunic of Christ; as spectator and witness watching the crucifixion or martyrdom scenes; as oriental kings worshiping the newborn Christ-child. All of this constitute, to some extent, an oscillating image that creates a tension between terror and hope. My thesis aims to consider the complexity of the context in the representation of the Mongol image and to demonstrate how, in this process, the image gives, in turn, a visibility of the mentalities of the end of the Middle Ages

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Répondant au caractère « pelegrino » attribué à Luca Signorelli par son contemporain Giovanni Santi, notreréflexion s’articule autour de la triple itinérance du peintre cortonais. La première, fondée sur une géographieartistique, met en jeu commanditaires et collaborateurs entre centres et périphéries et réévalue son imaged’artiste provincial. Il s’agit consécutivement d’établir l’incidence des dévotions locales sur le langage picturalsignorellien, notamment par le biais de la sacra rappresentazione (I). La seconde itinérance, de typeinterdisciplinaire, s’attache à son traitement de la figure humaine et du nu. L’élaboration de sa vision du corpsest confrontée à l’essor contemporain d’une anatomie scientifique et d’une approche expérimentale ou théorique,ainsi qu’à la question des convenances. La sensibilité tactile particulière de Signorelli, sa position dans le débatnaissant du Paragone et les modalités des transferts entre peinture et sculpture sont examinées, tout commel’éventualité d’un passage à l’acte sculptural (II). L’esprit vagabond de Luca, qui s’affirme enfin par uneitinérance temporelle, oscille entre intérêt pour le passé, goût archaïsant et aspiration au renouveau. Sont ainsiétudiés son rapport à l’art antique et sa place entre « seconda e terza età », en spécifiant ses liens avec l’ars novaet les ferments inédits semés. Au-delà des étiquettes de retardataire local ou de précurseur écrasé par un Michel-Ange, cette étude vise à restituer la curiosité, la sociabilité et les échanges d’un artiste de transition (III)Giovanni 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)

Dunlop, Anne Elizabeth. "Advocata nostra : central Italian paintings of Mary as the Second Eve, c.1335-c.1445". Thesis, University of Warwick, 1997. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/2889/.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
This thesis is a close examination and analysis of the creation and reception of a group of eighteen Central Italian paintings of the Madonna with Eve presented reclining at her feet, images which draw on one of the fundamental themes of Mary's cult, her role as the Second Eve. Modern writers have sometimes been taken aback by these panels; in recent studies of women in history, Mary and Eve are often assumed to have been defining stereotypes of positive and negative feminine behaviour, and these works make a blatant juxtaposition of the two. Yet this imagery was obviously attractive to Trecento and Quattrocento patrons: this paradox lies at the heart of this thesis, which seeks to determine what these paintings might have meant to those who commissioned them and who first worshipped before them. To do so, this thesis begins by introducing the questions raised by the works; it then discusses textual and oral traditions linking Mary and Eve for Trecento and Quattrocento viewers, in order to suggest a range of possible associations for the imagery. There are then four case studies, intended to particularise the general themes of the pairing through specific images and contexts. The first focuses on Ambrogio Lorenzetti's frescoes at the former Cistercian abbey of S. Galgano, which were created, it is suggested here, by a member of that community in Mary's honour. The next chapter looks at the political and eschatological implications of images of Mary's rule as the Second Eve in the Papal States, discussing frescoes in S. Agostino, Montefalco, S. Gregorio Maggiore, Spoleto, and the Camposanto in Pisa, as well as a panel attributed to Carlo da Camerion, now in Cleveland, Ohio.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Cette étude a pour but d’analyser les représentations peintes – mais aussi, à chaque fois que cela était pertinent pour le propos, les dessins, les photographies et les sculptures – des campagnes d’Italie de 1800 et de 1859. L’approche comparative de ces deux événements met en parallèle les héritages et les innovations artistiques d’« un Napoléon à l’autre », en posant à chaque fois la question de la volonté de précision et des connaissances des artistes chargés d’immortaliser les grandes phases de ces conflits, de manière à apporter un regard principalement centré sur les aspects militaires de ces représentations, en recourant notamment à l’étude iconographique. S’il s’agit avant tout d’un travail d’histoire de l’art, s’appuyant sur l’analyse stylistique et sur la réception critique des œuvres, l’approche méthodologique proposée croise d’autres disciplines afin de détailler la conception et l’organisation des œuvres : topographie, stratégie, tactique et, plus largement, d’autres domaines plus spécifiquement liés au patrimoine militaire (uniformologie, emblématique, armement…). Les œuvres sont également confrontées aux objets conservés et à l’histoire militaire qu’elles représentent, afin de comprendre comment les artistes ont conçu leurs productions et sont parvenus à rendre les faits. L’organisation du propos est divisée en trois parties, étudiant successivement la représentation topographique (les artistes se sont-ils rendus sur les lieux, ont-ils cherché à être précis en rendant les paysages et les particularités géographiques ?), le rendu de la bataille (comment la traite-t-on au début et au milieu du siècle, trouve-t-on un véritable souci de faire figurer les bonnes unités aux bons endroits et de tenter de comprendre et / ou de recomposer les manœuvres tactiques ?) et la perception héroïque (comment met-on en valeur le héros d’une époque à l’autre et comment différencier une œuvre au rendu réaliste d’une autre vouée à la glorification ou à l’édification ?)This work deals with a comparative analysis of military paintings representing the French Italian Campaigns (1800 and 1859), including drawings, photographs and sculptures when it is relevant. The parallel is established between artistic heritages and innovations from “a Napoleon to the other”, asking the artists’ willing of precision and military knowledge when they represented these events, so these works of art are studied in a different way focused on a military approach using iconography. Although the main work is in history of art, based on the analysis of formal handling and critical reception, the methodology resorts other sciences in order to examine the artworks composition and organisation in details: in that way, artworks are confronted to topography, strategy, tactic and also military heritage testimonies (uniforms, emblems, weapons…) and history they aimed to show. The work is divided in three parts, successively studying topographical representation (did the artists travelled to see the places and did they represented precise and recognizable geographical details?), the way of painting battles (how fights were figured at the beginning and in the middle of the 19th century, can regiments and tactical manoeuvres be identified correctly?) and heroic perception (how heroes were showed in 1800 and in 1859 and how artworks can be ranked, between glorification and realistic representations?)

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Bien que l'enfance soit «une donnée anthropologique universelle» (E. Deschavanne, P.H. Tavoillot, Philosophie des âges de la vie), l'historien français Philippe Ariès, dans L'Enfant et la vie familiale sous l'ancien Régime (1960), affirmait l'absence de sentiment de l'enfance au Moyen Âge et au début des Temps Modernes et l'invention de l'enfance à partir des XVI°, mais surtout XVIl0 et XVIll0 siècles. Invalidée par les historiens mais encore reprise aujourd'hui par certains historiens d'art, cette thèse était essentiellement fondée sur une étude des représentations picturales. Les images d'enfants abondent dans la peinture italienne de la Renaissance du XIV au XVIe siècles en Italie du Nord et Italie centrale. Mais elles méritaient une approche neuve, venant apporter un nouvel éclairage non seulement sur les enfants de la Renaissance, mais sur les manières selon lesquelles ils étaient perçus et représentés. Était alors nécessaire une analyse précise des représentations visuelles, des conditions de leur genèse, ainsi que de leur destination. Une telle étude trouva naturellement sa structure dans la division des âges de la vie en vigueur à la Renaissance : l’infanzia (naissance - sept ans), la puerizia (sept - quatorze ans) et l’adolescenza (à partir de quatorze ans) étaient les périodes de l'enfance, au sein desquelles se mouvait un être en constante évolution. Dépassant le postulat de l'enfant comme simple objet pictural décoratif, une telle recherche permet de comprendre les rôles des représentations d'enfants, selon le genre de l'œuvre, son histoire, mais également selon l'âge, le sexe ou le statut de l'enfant représentéAlthough 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

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
L’étude du corps offre un angle d’approche privilégié pour appréhender les représentations théâtrales comiques de l’époque classique à Athènes et en Grande Grèce. Seule une analyse croisée des sources textuelles et iconographiques permet de faire toute la lumière sur la manière dont le corps comique était mis en scène, perçu et imaginé. Les conclusions de la thèse reposent en particulier sur la confrontation des comédies grecques du Ve et du IVe siècle av. J.-C. et de la céramique italiote à sujet comique, entre lesquelles elle établit un lien étroit. Le premier chapitre est consacré à la présentation des corpus et à leur mise en relation. Le deuxième décrit les aspects matériels du costume comique. Les troisième et quatrième portent sur la sémiologie du costume : sont d’abord étudiés les codes propres au genre, puis les éléments qui concourent à la caractérisation sociale et morale du personnage. Le cinquième et dernier chapitre traite de la fonction dramatique du geste comiqueAnalysis of the body provides an effective means of capturing comic performances in classical Athens and Magna Graecia. Textual and iconographic sources ought to be considered together to shed light upon the staging of the comic body as it was perceived and imagined. In particular, the conclusions of this work are based upon the comparison of Greek comedies from the 5th and 4th centuries B.C. and South-Italian vase-paintings of comic subjects. The first chapter presents the two corpuses and the questions raised by their comparison. Chapter two describes the material characteristics of the comic costume. The third and fourth chapters focus on the semiotics of the costume ; the signs of the genre are treated first, followed by a discussion of the social and moral characterization of the personages. The final chapter pertains to the dramatic function of the comic gesture

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Cette étude centrée sur le cinéma italien propose de décrire les liens prolifiques et complexes qui se sont noués entre la peinture du XIXe siècle, européenne et surtout italienne, et les films italiens allant de 1905 (La Presa di Roma, Alberini) à 1920 (La serpe, Roberti). Du filon historique aux mélodrames des dive, de la figuration enthousiaste de l’Histoire, au lyrisme de la passion amoureuse, un effet pictural hante les images cinématographiques qui portent en elles « le ferment d’un tableau possible » (Eric Rohmer). Il s’agira donc de penser les formes de partage entre cinéma et peinture, suivant l’étude iconographique de motifs (gestes, postures, décors, accessoires) et d’éléments formels (composition, cadre, échelle des plans, montage) ouvrant sur la question des styles, que le cinéma prolonge et altère : néoclassicisme, académisme, orientalisme, préraphaélisme, symbolisme, Art Nouveau. Ces notions d’esthétique permettent un rapprochement entre l’histoire de l’art et l’histoire du cinéma, et ouvrent sur la question de la survivance des images. Au moment où l’on enregistre sa disparition en faveur de l’abstraction, la peinture figurative du XIXe siècle persiste, se prolonge, et survit au cinéma. En retour, le cinéma italien des années 1910 tire une part de sa vitalité d’une matière picturale qui appartient déjà au passé. Cette recherche met ainsi à jour une série de questions permettant à la fois de revisiter un pan de l’histoire du cinéma italien, peu étudié en France, et plus largement de penser la relation du cinéma aux autres artsThis study centers around Italian cinema and proposes to describe the prolific and complex connections that developed between 19th century painting (European and mostly Italian) and the Italian films from 1905 (La Presa di Roma, Alberini) to 1920 (La Serpe, Roberti). From the historical inspiration to the dive melodramas, from the enthusiastic portrayal of History to the lyricism of passionate love, a pictorial effect haunts these cinematographic images in which can be found « the seed of a possible painting » (Eric Rohmer). Therefore, one needs to reflect on what cinema and painting share, following the iconographical study of figurative (gestures, postures, scenery, props) and formal elements (composition, frame, field size, editing) that lead to the question of the styles that the cinema prolongs and alters : neoclassicism, academism, orientalism, pre-Raphaelitism, symbolism, Art Nouveau. These aesthetic ideas allow for a convergence between the history of art and the history of cinema, which opens the question of the images' survival. At a time when 19th century figurative painting was being replaced by abstract art, it persisted and survived in cinema. In return, Italian cinema of the 1910s drew part of its vitality from pictorial material that already belonged to the past.Thus, this research brings to light a series of questions that allow for both a revisitation of a rarely studied period of the history of Italian cinema and more generally to reflect upon the relationship between cinema and other artforms

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
La présente thèse a pour point de départ une exposition florentine organisée en 1990 et intitulée « Pittura di luce ». Ses organisateurs entendaient désigner ainsi un courant de la peinture florentine du milieu du XVe siècle fondé sur la lumière et la couleur claire. Comme l’avait bien compris l’exposition, cette « peinture de lumière » est d’abord identifiable dans la « manière colorée » portée par Fra Angelico et Domenico Veneziano, mais elle doit aussi être élargie à une manière plus « blanche », qui va de Masaccio aux premières œuvres d’Andrea del Verrocchio, au début des années 1470. Les implications techniques et symboliques d’un tel style méritent également d’être étudiées car elles renforcent le sens et la cohérence d’un mouvement publiquement soutenu par les Médicis et dont l’ambition majeure fut de « faire surgir » les peintures religieuses de la pénombre des églises (I). L’étude du développement géographique vaste mais discontinu de la pittura di luce approfondit les hypothèses proposées dans le cas florentin : tout autant qu’une façon moderne et proprement « renaissante » de peindre, la « manière claire » est aussi fondée sur une lumière théologique, associée en partie à la religiosité franciscaine. Piero della Francesca est assurément le grand protagoniste de ce double rayonnement, dans les cours et dans les campagnes (II). C’est également Piero qui sera au cœur de la redécouverte d’une peinture que les XIXe et XXe siècles ont réappris à voir grâce aux historiens de l’art et aux artistes, mais également en raison du changement des conditions de vision des œuvres d’art. En ce sens, la pittura di luce constitue un chapitre important de l’histoire du regard, que l’on propose de rapprocher d’autres redécouvertes picturales elles aussi fondées sur la notion d’apparition (III)This 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)

Tycz, Katherine Marie. "Material prayers : the use of text in early modern Italian domestic devotions". Thesis, University of Cambridge, 2018. https://www.repository.cam.ac.uk/handle/1810/276240.
Texto completo da fonteResumo:
While scholarship often focuses on how early modern Italians used images in their devotions, particularly in the post-Tridentine era, little attention has been placed upon how laypeople engaged with devotional text during times of prayer and in their everyday lives. Studies of early modern devotional texts have explored their literary content, investigated their censorship by the Church, or concentrated upon an elite readership. This thesis, instead, investigates how ordinary devotees interacted with holy words in their material form, which I have termed ‘material prayers’. Since this thesis developed under the aegis of the interdisciplinary research project, Domestic Devotions: The Place of Piety in the Italian Renaissance Home, 1400-1600, it focuses primarily on engagement with these material prayers in domestic spaces. Using an interdisciplinary approach drawing from material culture studies, literary history, social and cultural history, and art history, it brings together objects, images and archival sources to illuminate how devotees from across the socio-economic and literacy spectrums accessed and employed devotional text in their prayers and daily life. From holy words, Biblical excerpts, and prayers to textual symbols like the Sacred Monogram of the Name of Jesus, this thesis explores how and why these material prayers were employed for spiritual, apotropaic and intercessory purposes. It analyses material prayers not only in traditional textual formats (printed books and manuscripts), but also those that were printed on single-sheets of paper, inscribed on jewellery, or etched into the structure of the home. To convey how devotees engaged with and relied upon these material prayers, it considers a variety of inscribed objects, including those sanctioned by the Church as well as those which might be questioned or deemed ‘superstitious’ by ecclesiastical authorities. Sermons, Inquisition trial records, and other archival documents have been consulted to further illuminate the material evidence. The first part of the thesis, ‘On the Body’, considers the how devotees came into personal contact with texts by wearing prayers on their bodies. It examines a range of objects including prayers with protective properties, known as brevi, that were meant to be sealed in a pouch and worn around the neck, and more luxurious items of physical adornment inscribed with devotional and apotropaic text, such as necklaces and rings. The second part of the thesis enters the home to explore how the spaces people inhabited and the objects that populated their homes were decorated with material prayers. ‘In the Home’ begins with texts inscribed over the entryways of early modern Italian homes, and then considers how devotees decorated their walls with holy words and how the objects of devotion and household life were imbued with religious significance through the addition of pious inscriptions. By analysing these personal objects and the textual domestic sphere, this thesis argues that these material prayers cut across socio-economic classes, genders, and ages to embody quotidian moments of domestic devotion as well as moments of fear, anxiety and change.

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Que l’on évoque les épopées virgilienne et homériques, les poèmes ovidiens, les récits bibliques ou les historiens antiques, toutes ces sources littéraires ont considérablement inspiré les arts décoratifs du XVIe siècle, en particulier dans l’Italie des cours humanistes par le biais des livres illustrés et des gravures. Conférer une telle fonction à un modèle textuel amène ainsi à interroger le statut de ces images et engage une réflexion sur les enjeux de la transposi, du traitement des sources et des modalités de production et de réception des pièces créées dans les différents domaines artistiques. Une œuvre retient particulièrement l’attention du fait de son utilisation comme source iconographique par les artisans dès sa publication : l’Orlando furioso de l’Arioste, poète à la cour des Este. Cette épopée, éditée en 1516 puis, dans sa version finale en 1532, relève à la fois de la tradition épique antique mais aussi de la chanson de geste médiévale. Riche de cette double intertextualité, le poème a connu une fortune considérable, à l’exemple de son utilisation par les peintres de majolique.Or, la variété du corpus des majoliques inspirées du Furioso, noyau original de notre projet, suscite de nombreuses interrogations. Pourquoi une telle fortune de l’épopée d’Arioste auprès des maiolicari ? Cette question, au centre notre étude, consiste dès lors à expliquer comment et pourquoi les modèles chevaleresques ont été utilisés par les peintres de majolique dans l’Italie à la Renaissance. En découlent de nombreuses interrogations complémentaires afin d’en envisager toutes les dimensions : est-ce un unicum propre à la majolique ou parti- cipe-t-elle d’une iconographie plus générale dans les arts italiens du XVIe siècle ? Dans ce cas, quelle place l’imaginaire chevaleresque occupe-t-il dans le répertoire de la céramique ? De quelles traditions relève-t-il ? S’agit-il de l’élaboration d’une imagerie relevant d’un héritage médiéval, de l’ordre de l’imitatio, ou revue au prisme des conceptions humanistes, et donc témoignant d’une forme d’inventio des artisans ? Quels en sont les modèles, les sources littéraires et culturelles et les modalités de transposition ? Quelles caractéristiques, fonctions et significations peut-on alors lui donner ? Que traduit cet imaginaire quant aux goûts des commanditaires ? Quelles interactions avec les autres arts peut-on établir ? Quelles images et valeurs véhicule-t-il et en quoi apporte-t-il un éclairage sur la culture et les fonctions de l’image dans les intérieurs du Cinquecento ? Autant de questions que nous soulèverons en proposant une lecture pluridisciplinaire de ces majoliques chevaleresques, tout à la fois objets d’art et pièces d’usage, axée sur leur contexte et leur place dans les arts italiens de la Renaissance, les relations entre leur iconographie et les modèles, entre leurs formes et leurs usages, entre leurs fonctions socio-culturelles et leurs significations. Il s’agit in fine de présenter une réflexion globale sur la production et la réception de ces images créées par les maiolicari comme « peintures-objets », véhiculant des valeurs et des discours, en analysant les interactions entre art de la céramique, perspectives lit- téraire et artistique, sémiologie de l’image, culture visuelle et histoire du goûtThe origins of my research project, “Ut maiolica epica” : painting chivalric world in 16th century Italian maiolica, lay in the fact that literary sources, from the Bible to Ovid, have greatly inspired decorative arts during the sixteenth century, especially in Italian humanist courts through illustrated books and prints. Transferring a literary text into ornamental design introduces the issue of the status of the images created by craftsmen but also induces a reflection about craftsmen’s aims, wondering how they used the iconographic sources and how the objects thus produced were understood by the patronage. A textual model handled by crafts- men, as soon as it was published in his final version in 1532, specifically holds attention : the Orlando furioso by Ariosto. This epic, which comes from the antique tradition of poetry as much as from medieval “chanson de geste”, was immediately successful with the artists, and more precisely, with ceramic painters. In fact, the fifty Italian ceramics or so inspired by the Furioso have been the source of a larger part of my research project : how this success with maiolica painters could be explained? So the central issue of that work is to explain how and why these chivalric models were used by ceramic painters during the Italian Renaissance. Many sub-questions relate to this research question in order to considerate it in all its com- plexity. The first one that arises is how we should understand this feature of the Italian maiolica : is it specific to this art or a mirror image of a larger chivalric iconography presence in the 16th century Italian decorative arts? The elaboration of an iconographic corpus is an important preliminary step to explore this issue : to explain why ceramics painters created chivalric images, it’s necessary to outline the general features of the iconography of chivalry in the early sixteenth century. This question is linked to a second one : is this iconography a medieval legacy or a humanist updating? Indeed, the issues of the part of imitatio and the part of inventio are clearly central. On the one hand, imitatio focuses on the medieval legacy in Italian 16th century chivalric iconography, the notion of transposition, the interactions with the other decorative arts as armours and cassoni. On the other hand, the question of inventio deals with the corpus analysis, the new iconographic subjects, the role of prints and illustrated books and the influence of contemporary paintings. This sub-question involves a last one: what does this iconography reveal about the patronage’s tastes, the notion of pomp and the cultural and social values of Italian Renaissance society? These “painting-objects”, coloured pictures but also functional objects as dish, plate, cup or ewer, relate to the relationships between the iconography, forms, functions and uses of Italian ceramics, their social and historical contexts and their semiology. In fact, the historiated ceramic was a luxurious produc- tion and, so, it was a way for commissioners to display their magnificence, to show their culture. The issue of values thus emphasized is important in order to carry out a general thinking from the production of these images in maiolica workshops to their reception and display by the clients. So, to explore these research questions, my study is based on a semantic and cultural reading of Italian domestic interior and on the interactions between ceramic art, icono- graphic analysis, material culture, literary viewpoint and sociocultural history

Texto completo da fonteResumo:
Agents essentiels de la spiritualité de la fin de l’époque médiévale, les Ordres mendiants étaient intimement liés à leurs couvents. Ces bâtiments, en effet, répondaient aux activités cultuelles, communautaires et intellectuelles propres aux religieux tout comme aux nécessités de l’encadrement des fidèles. Implantés de manière réfléchie, les frères surent s’intégrer et s’adapter de manière dynamique à la vie de la cité qu’envisage la présente enquête. À partir d’une réflexion menée sur les œuvres peintes et sculptées dans les édifices conventuels siennois, cette étude aborde donc les différentes finalités de cette production artistique ainsi que son impact dans le milieu urbain en question. Pour ce faire, trois parties se succèdent : la première s’attache à dresser un inventaire le plus exhaustif possible des œuvres qui se déployaient dans les complexes du XIIIème siècle au milieu du XVIème siècle. La seconde revient sur les enjeux et les conséquences de cet essor artistique dans le cadre même des couvents, mais aussi dans l’ensemble de la ville. Enfin, la troisième étend le propos à quelques grands décors d’Italie centrale et met tout particulièrement en relief l’originalité de cette production mendiante aux derniers siècles du Moyen ÂgeEssential agents of spirituality at the end of medieval times, the Mendicant Orders were closely linked with their convents. These buildings, in fact, were created with regard to the cultal needs, and intellectual activities of the brothers themselves, as well as with regard to the gathering of the faithful. So, established in a very structured way, the brothers made sure to integrate and adapt themselves in a dynamic manner to the life of the city with wich the present investigation is dealing. Starting from a reflection directed towards the painted and sculpted works in Sienese convent buildings, this study tackles the different purposes of this artistic production, along with its impact on the urban setting in question. In order to accomplish this, three points are successively focused on: the first aims to provide the most exhaustive inventory possible of the works that blossomed from the 13th Century until the middle of the 16th Century. The second deals with the intentions and consequences of this artistic development in the city. Finally, the third extends the topic to some other great contexts of Central Italy and particularly focuses on the originality of this Mendicant production in the last centuries of the Middle Ages
