Abstract

L'église Saint-Michel de Dijon, inscrite sur la liste des monuments historiques dès 1840, méritait le présent ouvrage consacré à une étude approfondie de son bâtiment, sa structure et son décor, et des œuvres qu'elle abrite. L'auteur y a cerné le cheminement des idées et des formes nouvelles depuis leur berceau en Italie, jusque dans les divers foyers artistiques influencés par l'esprit de la Renaissance apparu en France dès la seconde partie du XVe siècle. La Bourgogne ne pouvait rester à part et l'on vit, dès le début du XVIe siècle, apparaître des œuvres de qualité : l'église Saint-Michel s'inscrit progressivement dans ce mouvement, assurant une synthèse originale entre l'héritage d'un passé encore très présent et des perspectives d'évolution. Elle est aujourd'hui l'un des édifices phares de Dijon.

Abstract

The story of the Pucci family, great patrons of Renaissance art and architecture. Shrewd and ruthless, the Pucci were Medici loyalists whose political and cultural alignment with the most powerful family in Renaissance Florence was rewarded with wealth and influence. The Pucci's martial support for the Medici in the dangerous business of ruling Tuscany drove their transformation from a clan of minor guildsmen to a noble dynasty with three cardinals to its name. Over the next two centuries, they showcased their exalted status with art and architecture that mirrored Medici tastes and reflected the values of civic humanism. The political and religious turmoil of the High Renaissance is writ large in this vivid portrait of the Pucci cardinals and their artistic patronage, a cultural biography inflected by the expulsion of the Medici from Florence, the Sack of Rome, the Reformation, and the occupation of Italy by Emperor Charles V. New archival evidence documents the chapels, palaces, and villas that were built, expanded, and decorated by the Pucci family in Rome, Tuscany, and Umbria. These celebrated projects were carried out by luminaries of Renaissance art and architecture: Michelozzo, the Pollaiuolo brothers, the Sangallo family, Baccio d’Agnolo, the Montelupo workshop, and others. A remarkable body of inventories reveals how the family's trials and tribulations shaped the fate of their estates and illustrates the role luxury goods played in the social ambitions of this newly-arrived family. A previously unknown catalogue of Palazzo Pucci tells the tale of the nineteenth-century dispersal of the family’s priceless Renaissance artworks, a collection that once mirrored the splendor of the Medici court.

Abstract

This book sheds new light on a key stage in the development of the tightly knit urban fabric of early-modern Rome, adopting an innovative, multi-disciplinary approach. During his reign (1534-1549), Pope Paul III transformed Rome from a derelict town to a dignified and even triumphal city. This richly illustrated book uses mainly unpublished documentation to investigate a range of multi-media urban, architectural and artistic projects promoted by Paul III. It adopts a multi-disciplinary approach to deepen our knowledge of Rome’s visual culture after the Sack of 1527, providing a nuanced and fresh understanding of the social, economic and political conditions underpinning the creation of celebrated masterpieces, like Michelangelo’s Last Judgement or his design of the Campidoglio. This study - the first entirely dedicated to Rome during the pontificate of Paul III - re-conceptualizes the periodization of Rome’s early-modern history, which is traditionally polarized between the High Renaissance and the Baroque, and establishes Paul III’s reign as the hinge between these two, seemingly disconnected, periods. In addressing these topics, artworks and urban spaces are analyzed as a means to engage with themes intensely discussed in recent scholarship, such as the creation of space, the inhabited urban environment and the intersection of art, politics and propaganda. Guido Rebecchini read History of Art at the Università degli Studi di Roma "La Sapienza", before going to the Università degli Studi di Siena, where he took a MA on the "Tradizione dell’Antico nel Medioevo e nel Rinascimento". In 2000, he obtained his PhD at the Warburg Institute and has subsequently taught at the Università di Siena from 2001 until 2009 and at the New York University and Syracuse University study-abroad centres in Florence in the years 2010-2012. In 2013, he joined The Courtauld Institute of Art where he is now Senior Lecturer in Sixteenth-Century Southern European Art. He has held fellowships awarded by the British Academy (1998-2000 and 2016-2018), Villa I Tatti (2004-2005) and CASVA (2007), among others. He has published extensively on sixteenth-century Italian art, history and culture.
