Excerpt: ... promptly and readily acceded to, since it was within two months of Nicolas's accession that we find him writing from Rome to the Chapter of Orvieto to offer his services for their Cathedral. And here I must notice one of the best known anecdotes, perhaps, relating to Angelico's life, which, for its extreme beauty and the light it would throw upon his character, every one must wish to be true and well authenticated. I fear, however, that the dates adduced only tend to show its impossibility; I shall therefore give the accounts and argumentsof the contending historians, and leave the reader to draw his own conclusion, neither wishing to exalt the subject of this memoir by putting forward an anachronism, or coldly to leave unnoticed an act of generosity and humility which the tender nature of Angelico renders very possible, and at least in accordance with his disposition. Vasari says, "And now, Fra Giovanni appearing to the Pope to be, as he really was, a person of most holy life, gentle, and modest, the Pontiff, on the Archbishopric of Florence becoming vacant, judged Fra Giovanni worthy of that preferment; but the Frate, hearing this, entreated his holiness to provide himself with some other person, since he did not feel capable of ruling men. He added, that among the brethren of his Order, was a man well skilled in the art of governing others; a friend of the poor, and one who feared God: on this man he considered that the proposed dignity could be much more appropriately conferred than on himself. The Pope, hearing this, and remembering that what he said of this brother of his Order was true, freely granted him the favour he desired, and thus was the Frate Antonio, of the order of Friars Predicants, made Archbishop of Florence. And the...

Download or read book Fra Angelico and the Rise of the Florentine Renaissance written by Carl Brandon Strehlke and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2020-01-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With illustrations that demonstrate the rich colors and intense light that imbue Fra Angelico’s work, this book takes a deeper look at one of the master painters of the Florentine Renaissance. One of the great fifteenth-century masters, Fra Angelico was one of several painters who shaped the beginnings of the Florentine Renaissance. Although, because of his occupation as a friar, he is sometimes considered separately from his contemporaries, including Masaccio, Masolino, Paolo Uccello, Filippo Lippi, Lorenzo Ghiberti, Donatello, Nanni di Banco, and Filippo Brunelleschi, Fra Angelico and the Rise of the Florentine Renaissance examines his early works and shows that not only was he a participant in the artistic culture of the time, but also a key innovator. Angelico’s breakthrough work from the mid-1420s, the Prado’s great Annunciation altarpiece, is regarded as the first Renaissance-style altarpiece in Florence. Published to accompany the exhibition “Fra Angelico and the Rise of the Florentine Renaissance” at the Museo Nacional del Prado, Madrid, this book reveals the results of the Prado’s extensive conservation and technological research efforts on The Annunciation, as well as two other recently acquired Angelico paintings: the Alba Madonna and the Funeral of Saint Anthony Abbot. Vividly illustrated and deeply illuminating, this book investigates the origins of the Florentine Renaissance and positions Angelico at the heart of the story.
