Abstract

Today few would think of astronomy and astrology as fields related to theology. Fewer still would know that physically absorbing planetary rays was once considered to have medical and psychological effects. But this was the understanding of light radiation held by certain natural philosophers of early modern Europe, and that, argues Mary Quinlan-McGrath, was why educated people of the Renaissance commissioned artworks centered on astrological themes and practices. Influences is the first book to reveal how important Renaissance artworks were designed to be not only beautiful but also-perhaps even primarily-functional. From the fresco cycles at Caprarola, to the Vatican's Sala dei Pontefici, to the Villa Farnesina, these great works were commissioned to selectively capture and then transmit celestial radiation, influencing the bodies and minds of their audiences. Quinlan-McGrath examines the sophisticated logic behind these theories and practices and, along the way, sheds light on early creation theory; the relationship between astrology and natural theology; and the protochemistry, physics, and mathematics of rays. An original and intellectually stimulating study, Influences adds a new dimension to the understanding of aesthetics among Renaissance patrons and a new meaning to the seductive powers of art.

Abstract

One of the most evocative monumental presences of Augustan Rome was discovered by chance in March 1879 during construction work along the banks of the Tiber.The exceptional nature of the find was immediately clear, especially due to the extraordinary wall decorations: frescoes, stuccowork and mosaics, which were quickly detached. Some have been dispersed, while others have recently been reorganized in the rooms of the National Museum of Rome at Palazzo Massimo.The volume illustrates, with original photographs, a fundamental chapter in the history of Roman painting, the turning point between the last results of the late Republican era and the first examples of what was to come in the Augustan period. The new museum exhibits are illustrated and accompanied by a thorough text, leading readers through a domus from the end of the 1st century BC.
