Book Maiolica  Italian Renaissance Ceramics in the Metropolitan Museum of Art

Download or read book Maiolica Italian Renaissance Ceramics in the Metropolitan Museum of Art written by Timothy Wilson and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 2016-08-29 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The form of tin-glazed earthenware known as maiolica reveals much about the culture and spirit of Renaissance Italy. Engagingly decorative, often spectacularly colorful, sometimes whimsical or frankly bawdy, these magnificent objects, which were generally made for use rather than simple ornamentation, present a fascinating glimpse into the realities of daily life. Though not as well known as Renaissance painting and sculpture, maiolica is also prized by collectors and amateurs of the decorative arts the world over. This volume offers highlights of the world-class collection of maiolica at the Metropolitan Museum. It presents 135 masterpieces that reflect more than four hundred years of exquisite artistry, ranging from early pieces from Pesaro—including an eight-figure group of the Lamentation, the largest, most ambitious piece of sculpture produced in a Renaissance maiolica workshop—to everyday objects such as albarelli (pharmacy jars), bella donna plates, and humorous genre scenes. Each piece has been newly photographed for this volume, and each is presented with a full discussion, provenance, exhibition history, publication history, notes on form and glaze, and condition report. Two essays by Timothy Wilson, widely considered the foremost scholar in the field, provide overviews of the history and technique of maiolica as well as an account of the formation of The Met's collection. Also featured is a wide-ranging introduction by Luke Syson that examines how the function of an object governed the visual and compositional choices made by the pottery painter. As the latest volume in The Met's series of decorative arts highlights, Maiolica is an invaluable resource for scholars and collectors as well as an absorbing general introduction to a multifaceted subject.

Download or read book APM Archeologia Postmedievale 19 2015 Gran Bretagna e Italia tra Mediterraneo e Atlantico Livorno un porto inglese Italy and Britain between Mediterranean and Atlantic worlds Leghorn an English port written by Hugo Blake and published by All’Insegna del Giglio. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Livorno fu una creazione postmedievale di notevole successo. Diventò il più grande porto di transito del Mediterraneo e creò il concetto di porto franco in Europa. Costruita dai Granduchi Medici, prosperò come la più importante base commerciale nel Mediterraneo per i Poteri nord-atlantici. Tra questi il principale fu inglese, la cui Royal Navy garantì il suo successo commerciale e il predominio britannico nel Mediterraneo – un’area che era ancora la fonte di prodotti e beni di lusso e che forniva un mercato popoloso per le manifatture, i metalli, il pesce, le riesportazioni coloniali ed i servizi di trasporto inglesi. Questo volume raccoglie quattordici contributi che danno prove materiali della relazione della Gran Bretagna con Livorno e la Toscana. Livorno was a remarkably successful post-medieval creation, which became the greatest transit port in the Mediterranean and pioneered the concept of the free port in Europe. Built by the Medici Grand Dukes, it prospered as the main commercial base in the Mediterranean for north Atlantic powers. Principal amongst these were the English, whose Royal Navy ensured their commercial success and Britain’s dominance of the Mediterranean – an area which was still the source of luxury produce and goods and provided a populous market for British manufactures, metals, fish, colonial re-exports and shipping. This volume brings together fourteen papers highlighting the material evidence of Britain’s relationship with Livorno and Tuscany.

Book Storie  di  ceramiche 4  Ceramica e Archeometria

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Storie (di) Ceramiche” è una giornata di studi dedicata alla memoria di Graziella Berti, studiosa di ceramica medievale e figura importante per gli studi storici sulla Pisa medievale e moderna, venuta a mancare l’11 Giugno del 2013. Questa occasione, giunta alla sua quarta edizione, vuole ricordarla nella maniera che lei stessa avrebbe apprezzato di più: attraverso i temi a lei cari, l’innovazione della ricerca e le nuove generazioni di studiosi. La quarta edizione, svoltasi il 10 Giugno 2017 a Pisa a quattro anni dalla scomparsa della studiosa, è stata dedicata al tema “Ceramica e Archeometria”, intendendo in questa maniera ricordarne l’impegno verso l’applicazione dei metodi archeometrici per gli studi ceramologici, dei quale colse il grande potenziale collaborando molte volte con Tiziano Mannoni e Claudio Capelli proprio su queste tematiche. Gli studi inseriti in questo volume e presentati nel corso della quarta giornata di studi, analizzano l’archeometria quale sistema per poter comprendere in maniera maggiormente approfondita aspetti tecnologici e di utilizzo della ceramica medievale e moderna, e per poter trarre informazioni utili a rispondere a interrogativi storico-archeologici. In essi è possibile cogliere le potenzialità di differenti ricerche archeometriche applicate alla ceramica in cui si cerca di superare la dicotomia tra studi umanistici e scientifici, permettendo ai dati raccolti attraverso fonti di tipo diverso di interfacciarsi tra loro al fine di ricostruire la storia.

Book excerpt: Atti della Giornata di Studi in ricordo di Graziella Berti, a cinque anni dalla scomparsa. 11 Giugno 2018 – Gipsoteca di Arte Antica piazza S. Paolo all’Orto n. 20 Pisa. “Storie (di) Ceramiche” è una giornata di studi dedicata alla memoria di Graziella Berti, studiosa di ceramica medievale e figura importante per gli studi storici sulla Pisa medievale e moderna, venuta a mancare l’11 Giugno del 2013. Questa occasione vuole ricordarla nella maniera che lei stessa avrebbe apprezzato di più: attraverso i temi a lei cari, l’innovazione della ricerca e le nuove generazioni di studiosi. La quinta edizione, svoltasi l’11 Giugno 2018 a Pisa, a cinque anni dalla scomparsa della studiosa, è stata dedicata al tema delle “Tecnologie di produzione” intendendo in questa maniera ricordare l’impegno della studiosa nell’indagare le modalità di fabbricazione del vasellame, dalla cavatura dell’argilla alla tornitura, dalla decorazione degli oggetti sino alla cottura in fornace. Gli studi inseriti in questo volume, e presentati nel corso della quinta giornata di studi, offrono osservazioni sui metodi di fabbricazione ricavati sia dalle ceramiche rinvenute negli scavi come scarti di fornace, che dagli attrezzi utilizzati dai vasai o dalle stesse fornaci dove la ceramica veniva cotta. Attraverso analisi materiali, archeometriche e sperimentali, e tramite l’intreccio di fonti scritte, materiali ed etnografiche, vengono ricostruiti i metodi di lavoro e le tecniche utilizzate nelle botteghe, le abitudini dei vasai, i modi di tornire e decorare gli oggetti, le eventuali sperimentazioni, le trasmissioni tecnologiche tra centri diversi.
