Book Synopsis Reclaiming Rome: Cardinals in the Fifteenth Century by : Carol Mary Richardson
Download or read book Reclaiming Rome: Cardinals in the Fifteenth Century written by Carol Mary Richardson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009-03-25 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fifteenth century was a critical juncture for the College of Cardinals. They were accused of prolonging the exile in Avignon and causing the schism. At the councils at the beginning of the period their very existence was questioned. They rebuilt their relationship with the popes by playing a fundamental part in reclaiming Rome when the papacy returned to its city in 1420. Because their careers were usually much longer than that of an individual pope, the cardinals combined to form a much more effective force for restoring Rome. In this book, shifting focus from the popes to the cardinals sheds new light on a relatively unknown period for Renaissance art history and the history of Rome. Dr. Carol M. Richardson has been awarded the Philip Leverhulme Prize (2008) in the field of History of Arts.

Download or read book Visible Spirit written by Irving Lavin and published by Pindar Press. This book was released on 2006-12-31 with total page 655 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As early as the 1950s, Professor Irving Lavin was recognized as a major voice in American art history. His sustained production of seminal scholarly contributions have left their mark on an astonishingly wide range of -subjects and fields. Bringing these far-reaching publications together will not only provide a valuable resource to scholars and -students, but will also underscore fundamental themes in the history of art - historicism, the art of commemoration, the relationship between style and meaning, the -intelligence of artists - themes that define the role of the visual arts in human communication. Irving Lavin is best known for his array of fundamental publications on the Baroque artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini (1598-1680). These include new discoveries and studies on the master's prodigious childhood, his architecture and -portraiture, his invention of caricature, his depictions of religious faith and political leadership, his work in the -theatre, his attitude toward death and the role of the artist in the creation of a modern sense of social responsibility. All of Professor Lavin's papers on Bernini are here brought together in three volumes. The studies have been reset and in many cases up-dated, and there is a comprehensive index.

Book Synopsis The History and Decoration of the Ponte S. Angelo by : Mark S. Weil
Download or read book The History and Decoration of the Ponte S. Angelo written by Mark S. Weil and published by Penn State University Press. This book was released on 1974 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ponte S. Angelo, the principal bridge of Rome, was dedicated by the Emperor Hadrian as a link between his mausoleum and the city of Rome in AD 134. From that time until the end of the nineteenth century, it played an important role in the history of the city as the major gateway to the Vatican, a significant point along the routes of pilgrims and processions. The present study considers the history of the bridge from antiquity, with major emphasis on the work of Bernini in decorating the bridge with angels carrying the instruments of Christ's Passion (1667-72). The documents for the decoration are here published for the first time in full, and oeuvre catalogues are given for the various sculptors who participated. An indispensable volume for the study of Roman Baroque sculpture.
Book Synopsis Italian Medals C.1530-1600 in British Public Collections: Text by : Philip Attwood
Download or read book Italian Medals C.1530-1600 in British Public Collections: Text written by Philip Attwood and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First developed in the princely courts of Renaissance Italy in the 1430s, in the 16th century medals were transformed into a recognisably modern form, in the messages they conveyed, the techinques employed in their manufacture, and the uses to which they were put. Contributing to this change were influential patrons including the Medici and the popes, as well as celebrated artists such as Leone Leoni and Benvenuto Cellini. This catalogue takes up the story where Sir George Hill's classic Corpus of Italian Medals of the Renaissance before Cellni published in 1930, leaves off. This major catalogue includes over 1200 medals from the British Museum and the other major British collections, many published here for the first time. The catalogue entries provide detailed historical and iconographical information on the medals, many of which are published for the first time. The introductory essays discuss the centres of production, artists and subjects of the medals; the reasons they were made; their design, production and functions; the diffusion of the Italian medal throughout Europe in the 16th century and the history of collecting 16th-century Italian medals in Britain.
