Abstract

Riche d’un ensemble remarquable des tableaux de Mantegna, de loin le plus important hors d’Italie, que viendront compléter des prêts exceptionnels, le musée du Louvre consacre, pour la première fois en France, une rétrospective majeure à cette figure éminente de la Renaissance en Italie du Nord. Formé dans le milieu humaniste de Padoue et de Ferrare, Mantegna va se distinguer par son goût « antiquaire », obsédé par la restitution imaginaire et documentée à la fois d’une Antiquité rêvée et par son talent d’invention allégorique et savante. A la cour de Mantoue, auprès d’Isabelle d’Este et de son mari le duc de Gonzague, il va développer, par la fresque, les peintures sur bois mais aussi par la gravure, une œuvre qui influencera au-delà des artistes de la péninsule jusqu’à Dürer. L’exposition et son catalogue s’attacheront à montrer, à travers des œuvres de techniques très diverses, les étapes majeures de la carrière de cet artiste, menée entre Padoue, Vérone et Mantoue durant la seconde moitié du XVe siècle, son influence sur ses contemporains et la diffusion précoce de son art dans toute l’Europe.

Abstract

These ground-breaking essays, all based on original archival research, consider the evolving interest in Bolognese art in seventeenth-century Italy, particularly focusing on the period after the death of Guido Reni in 1642. Edited by Bolognese specialists Raffaella Morselli and Babette Bohn, the studies collected here focus on the taste for Bolognese art within Bologna itself and in other parts of the Italian peninsula, including Mantua, Ferrara, Rome, and Florence. Essays examine the roles of gender, class, and the social status of the artist in early modern Bologna; approaches to exhibiting artworks in noble Bolognese collections; the reputations of local women artists; the popularity of Bolognese quadratura painting; and the relative success of both contemporary and earlier Bolognese artists with Italian collectors.

Abstract

"After the Counter-Reformation, the Papal State of Bologna became a hub for the flourishing of female artistic talent. The eighteenth-century biographer Luigi Crespi recorded twenty-three women artists working in the city, although many of these, until recently, were lost and ignored by modern art criticism, despite the fame they attained during their lifetimes. What were the factors that contributed to Bologna's unique confluence of women with art, science, and religion? The Devout Hand explores the work of two generations of Italian women artists in Bologna, from Lavinia Fontana (1552-1614), whose career emerged during the aftermath of the Counter -Reformation, to her brilliant successor, Elisabetta Sirani (1638-1665), who organized the first school for women artists. Patricia Rocco further sheds light on Sirani's students and colleagues, including the little-known engraver Veronica Fontana and the innovative but understudied etcher Giuseppe Maria Mitelli. Combining analysis of iconography, patronage, gender, and reception studies, Rocco integrates painting, popular prints, book illustration, and embroidery to open a wider lens onto the relationship between women, virtue, and the visual arts during a period of religious crisis. A reminder of the lasting power of images, The Devout Hand highlights women's active role in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Christian reform and artistic production."--
