setting
• “Madonna of Humilty”
• Mary is seated on the ground not a throne

• Bodies move in very graceful and complex ways.
• Protected garden metaphor for purity- cave symbolic of “womb”.
Chasm between the painting and the viewer emphasizes mystery,
remoteness.
• Mary’s right hand guides John the Baptist towards Christ. Left hand
foreshortened, protects the space Christ exists in. Infant Christ
gestures upwards to heaven. Empty space of Mary’s womb.
•
Cartoon for Madonna and Child with St. Anne
• Drawing more common in Renaissance-less expensive paper
available (previously parchment made from skins of young
animals)

to communicate a specific emotion.
• Several moments in same story
• Sense of divine eternal importance (not just 13 people having
supper) without obvious symbols of divine.
 The expressions of the body reveal the soul (one’s internal
nature).
• Separation of our world and pictorial world with barrier of table.
• Christ is the calm divine center to the hurricane of human worries
and concerns. Uniting the earthly and the divine.
• Christ identifies the betrayer as the person who dips with him in a
bowl. “He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall
betray me” (Matthew 26).
•
Mona Lisa
• Lisa di Antonio Maria Gherardini- wife of wealthy Florentine Francesco del
Giocondo

• The art of portraiture confirms the values of humanism’s
emphasis on the individual and was more and more popular
during the Renaissance.
• Initial portraits painted in profile, later Northern European artists
experiment with ¾ view in believable spaces.
Leonardo’s Death and the Changing Status of the Artist
• Spent the last years of his life in France working for King
Francis I- often visited by the King (remember that the artist was
considered only a skilled artisan in the Middle Ages and for
much of the Early Renaissance).
• In the High Renaissance, we find that artists are considered
intellectuals, and that they keep company with the highest levels
of society.
• Said to have died in the arms of the king.
Raphael
 Raffaello Santi
 Talented, popular, and beloved artist who died young at 37 after
excessive partying. (entombed in the Pantheon)
 His style combines the sculptural aspect of Michelangelo and the
feeling of Leonardo and the detail and light of his teacher
(Perugino).
 Master of balance and harmony
 Won a commission to paint frescoes in the papal apartments.
o Stanza della Segnatura: Theology (Disputà), Law (Justice),
Poetry (Parnassus), and Philosophy (School of Athens)
o Paintings symbolize and sum up Western learning during the
Renaissance
Personality:
 Good looking, charming, cultured, accessible (unlike Leonardo,
Michelangelo).

Poetry, Philosophy.

scientists from Ancient world.
• Set in vast Roman style coffered hall with statues of Apollo and Athena
(deities of Art and Wisdom).
• Plato and Aristotle are the central figures. Other figures share
gestures and glances like Leonardo’s Last Supper.
Plato vs. Aristotle
• Plato holds Timaeus, points to Heaven, source of inspiration.
• Aristotle holds Nichomachean Ethics, gestures towards the earth,
from which observations of reality sprang.
• Philosophers concerned with ultimate transcendent mysteries stand
on Plato’s side. On Aristotle’s side are thinkers concerned with
nature and human affairs.
• Other figures:
• Euclid (Bramante),
• Bramante: architect of new St. Peters
• Geometry. Interested in measure, the practical
• Pythagoras,
• Discovered laws of harmony in music in mathematics- there is a
reality that transcends the reality that we see. (music of the
spheres).

• Michelangelo is painting Sistine Chapel ceiling next door at the
same time. Raphael gives homage as lonely and brooding
Heraclitus all things in flux).
• Zoroaster,
• Ptolemy,
• Raphael (self-portrait)
• Raphael includes himself amongst intellectual…artist no longer
anonymous craftperson
Michelangelo
• “Il Divno” (the divine one)
• Architect, poet, engineer, sculptor
• Sculpture superior to painting because of it’s divine power to “make man”
• The “idea” is the reality the artist’s genius must bring forth-the absolute
idea is beauty and originates in the divine.
• Mistrusted application of mathematics to proportion (unlike Leonardo)-
measure and proportion should be kept in the eye and the hands.
• Asserted the artists authority over the patron-bound only by the idea.
(artistic license)
• Ultimate Humanist artist-a style of vast, expressive strength, complex,
titanic forms with tragic grandeur.
• Studied under Ghirlandaio but claims to be self-taught.
Personality
 A complex, brooding genius. Solitary, tempestuous, willful….Michelangelo
casts the mold for the persona of the Artist in Western Civilization.

dirty, melancholy, unsociable.

Cathedral.
• Michelangelo adjusted the proportions of the head and the hands to be
more visible from great distance.
• 3 times the size of average human

future
•
Tomb of Julius II
• First papal commission for Michelangelo
• Original design called for two story structure with 28 statues
(unprecedented size)
• Project interrupted due to lack of funds
• Completed with 1/3 of planned figures- (Julius would’ve been very
disappointed)
•
Moses


Bound Slave
 Originally intended to add 20 statues of captives (slaves) in various
attitudes of revolt and exhaustion to Pope’s tomb.
 Figures embody powerful emotional states. Violent contrapposto
conveys frantic but impotent struggle.
 Neo-Platonic Interpretation:
o 1.Trapped in matter-the individual struggling to be free from the
earthly realm and re-united with the divine spiritual one (GOD).
o 2.For Michelangelo-also an allegory for sculptural form
struggling to be free from inert stone to embody the platonic
idea locked within as a divine work of ART.

Reformation
• Christ as Stern Judge
• Terrifying vision of damnation goes beyond Signorelli
• Saint Bartholomew (self-portrait?)
• Purposeful lack of beauty in many figures

• Unlike other sacred narratives, which portray events of the past,
this one implicates the viewer. It has yet to happen and when it
does, the viewer will be among those whose fate is determined.

Movements and “Schools”
High and Late Renaissance
Florence and Rome
 1495-1520
 The notion of “fine arts” and the exaltation of the artist genius originates.
 “All good poets compose their beautiful poems not by art, but because
they are inspired and possessed…For not by art does the poet sing, but
by power divine”-
 Plato
 Visual Arts achieve status formerly held only by poetry. Artists become
international celebrities.
 Artists socialize with popes and kings, no longer anonymous craftsmen.
 Birth of the idea of the “brooding” artist genius.

Venetian School
In the sixteenth century, artists such as Giorgione and Titian preferred a gentler,
more sensuous approach to oil painting than had been adopted by the Florentine
School. The Venetians used warm atmospheric tones.
Distant from the influence of the Papacy, Venetian artists did not shy away from
controversial (erotic/pagan) themes.
Veronese
Titian
Giorgione
Venice vs Florence and Rome:
• Venetian Themes
– Poetry of senses
– Nature’s beauty
– Pleasures of Humanity (Eros)
• Florence & Rome Themes
– Esoteric, intellectual themes
– Conceptions of religion
– Grandeur of the ideal
Mannerism (1525-1600)
“The Stylish Style”
Art from Art
A style that developed in the sixteenth century as a reaction to the classical
rationality and balanced harmony of the high Renaissance; characterized by
dramatic use of space and light; exaggerated color, elongation of figures, and
distortions of perspective, scale, and proportion.
• All problems of representing reality had been solved and art had reached
a peak of perfection and harmony – Now what?
• Answer: replace harmony with dissonance, reason with emotion, and
reality with imagination
– Highly subjective, arbitrary light
– Unusual color
– Dramatic composition – often with vacant centers
• Writhing/twisting/elongated bodies: Figura Serpentinata
• Less emphasis on balance, symmetry, and rational
composition (values of High Renaissance)
• Technical Fireworks
Methods and Techniques:
Sfumato
A painting technique using an imperceptible, subtle transition from light to dark,
without any clear break or line. The theory was developed and mastered by
Leonardo da Vinci, and the term derives from the Italian word fumo, meaning
vapor, or smoke.
INFLUENTIAL FIGURES/HISTORY
Giorgio Vasari
Biographer of artists-great primary source for historians
Pope Julius II
o The “Warrior Pope”
o Chose the name Julius after Julius Caesar
o Referred to as “warrior-pope”
o Taste for the colossal
o Huge art patron
 Large scale projects required a lot of $$$, and many Church
members saw this as indulging papal art, architecture, and
lavish lifestyles
o Used the visual imagery for propaganda
o Commissioned work to represent his authoritative image and
reinforce the primacy of the Catholic Church
o Sistine Chapel ceiling, his tomb, decorating of papal apartments
REFORMATION and COUNTER-REFORMATION
Reformation
• Led by Martin Luther and John Calvin
• Disgruntled Catholics voiced concerns about sale of indulgences (pardons
for sins), nepotism, and wealthy church officials
• Break away from Catholic church establish Protestantism
Personal relationship with God not mediated by church
Counter-Reformation

BRONZINO, Venus, Cupid, Folly, and Time. TINTORETTO, Last Supper. VERONESE, Christ in the House of Levi. Artists Leonard da Vinci  Born in Vinci (near Florence)  Studied under Verrocchio  The definition of Renaissance Man  An expert an many areas:  Botany, geology, geography, cartography, zoology, military engineering, animal lore, anatomy, physical science, hydraulics, mechanics, optics.  Tried to discover the laws underlying the flux of nature, but believed that reality in an absolute sense is inaccessible and known only through change.  Left behind 10,000+ pages of drawings, ideas, and notes  All written in mirror image, left handed  Personality o Eccentric, Mysterious Personality: o Vegetarian o Purchased caged birds to release them o Highly secretive o Possibly celibate (never married) o Closest relationships with pupils Leonardo in Milan  Leaves Florence, offers services to Ludovico Sforza.
  • 2.  In letter to the ruler, advertises his expertise as a military engineer and only briefly mentions his skill in art.  Madonna of the Rocks • Altarpiece for Confraternity of Immaculate Conception • Builds on Masaccio’s use of chiaroscuro (subtle play of light and dark) • Pyramidal composition • Madonna, Christ, infant John the Baptist, angel, fleeing Massacre of the innocents. • Atmospheric perspective and observation of nature evident in mysterious setting • “Madonna of Humilty” • Mary is seated on the ground not a throne • Interlocking gestures, emotionally compelling, visually unified • Bodies move in very graceful and complex ways. • Protected garden metaphor for purity- cave symbolic of “womb”. Chasm between the painting and the viewer emphasizes mystery, remoteness. • Mary’s right hand guides John the Baptist towards Christ. Left hand foreshortened, protects the space Christ exists in. Infant Christ gestures upwards to heaven. Empty space of Mary’s womb. • Cartoon for Madonna and Child with St. Anne • Drawing more common in Renaissance-less expensive paper available (previously parchment made from skins of young animals) • Drawing as a complete work of art (no perforations for tracing)- although unfinished. • Sfumato, gradual gradations • Integration of figures into whole (stability is characteristic of High Renaissance) • Eternal and spiritual and human intimacy integrated. • Rhythm of knees almost musical. • Drapery recalls ancient Greek Sculpture. • Gestures lead to heaven. Last Supper • Refectory (dining room) for Santa Maria delle Grazie • “One of you is about to betray me” Matt. 26:21  Moment of reaction after announcement  AND first Ceremony of the Eucharist. • Experimental painting technique lead to fast deterioration. Most recently restored in 1999 • Jesus head is focal point of all converging lines. • Simplifies setting to focus on figures and gestures.
  • 3. • Disciples configured in 4 groups of 3. • Numerous preparatory studies with live models-each figure meant to communicate a specific emotion. • Several moments in same story • Sense of divine eternal importance (not just 13 people having supper) without obvious symbols of divine.  The expressions of the body reveal the soul (one’s internal nature). • Separation of our world and pictorial world with barrier of table. • Christ is the calm divine center to the hurricane of human worries and concerns. Uniting the earthly and the divine. • Christ identifies the betrayer as the person who dips with him in a bowl. “He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me” (Matthew 26). • Mona Lisa • Lisa di Antonio Maria Gherardini- wife of wealthy Florentine Francesco del Giocondo • Mona Lisa- ma donna, “my lady” • Pyramidal composition – Originally in a “loggia” (balcony) that framed the scene – Removed at some point but partial columns at base remain • Phsycological intensity – Engages viewer directly (unusual for a woman with mysterious smile (Frued: mothering and seductive simultaneously). No eyebrows. – • Mysterious background creates enigmatic mood – Atmospheric perspective – Sfumato (misty haziness) – Blurring of precise planes • The art of portraiture confirms the values of humanism’s emphasis on the individual and was more and more popular during the Renaissance. • Initial portraits painted in profile, later Northern European artists experiment with ¾ view in believable spaces. Leonardo’s Death and the Changing Status of the Artist • Spent the last years of his life in France working for King Francis I- often visited by the King (remember that the artist was considered only a skilled artisan in the Middle Ages and for much of the Early Renaissance).
  • 4. • In the High Renaissance, we find that artists are considered intellectuals, and that they keep company with the highest levels of society. • Said to have died in the arms of the king. Raphael  Raffaello Santi  Talented, popular, and beloved artist who died young at 37 after excessive partying. (entombed in the Pantheon)  His style combines the sculptural aspect of Michelangelo and the feeling of Leonardo and the detail and light of his teacher (Perugino).  Master of balance and harmony  Won a commission to paint frescoes in the papal apartments. o Stanza della Segnatura: Theology (Disputà), Law (Justice), Poetry (Parnassus), and Philosophy (School of Athens) o Paintings symbolize and sum up Western learning during the Renaissance Personality:  Good looking, charming, cultured, accessible (unlike Leonardo, Michelangelo).  Tremendously successful very early.  Preferred light over dark. Clarity and calm over struggle and tension.  Ladies man. Died at 37 from “excessive partying” Madonna in the Meadow • Adopted Leonardo’s pyramidal composition, modeling of faces in subtle chiaroscuro. • Landscape reflects Perugino’s lighter tonalities and blue skies. • Preferred clarity over obscurity-not fascinated with mystery like Leonardo. • Quickly achieved fame for his Madonnas. The School of Athens • Julius II awarded decoration of the Papal apartments in Vatican. Stanze della Segnatura (Room of the Signature)-the Papal Library and office. • Four walls symbolize 4 branches of human knowledge: Theology, Law, Poetry, Philosophy. • Philosophy (School of Athens)-congregation of great philosophers and scientists from Ancient world. • Set in vast Roman style coffered hall with statues of Apollo and Athena (deities of Art and Wisdom).
  • 5. • Plato and Aristotle are the central figures. Other figures share gestures and glances like Leonardo’s Last Supper. Plato vs. Aristotle • Plato holds Timaeus, points to Heaven, source of inspiration. • Aristotle holds Nichomachean Ethics, gestures towards the earth, from which observations of reality sprang. • Philosophers concerned with ultimate transcendent mysteries stand on Plato’s side. On Aristotle’s side are thinkers concerned with nature and human affairs. • Other figures: • Euclid (Bramante), • Bramante: architect of new St. Peters • Geometry. Interested in measure, the practical • Pythagoras, • Discovered laws of harmony in music in mathematics- there is a reality that transcends the reality that we see. (music of the spheres). • Diogenes, • Heraclitus (Michelangelo), • Michelangelo is painting Sistine Chapel ceiling next door at the same time. Raphael gives homage as lonely and brooding Heraclitus all things in flux). • Zoroaster, • Ptolemy, • Raphael (self-portrait) • Raphael includes himself amongst intellectual…artist no longer anonymous craftperson Michelangelo • “Il Divno” (the divine one) • Architect, poet, engineer, sculptor • Sculpture superior to painting because of it’s divine power to “make man” • The “idea” is the reality the artist’s genius must bring forth-the absolute idea is beauty and originates in the divine. • Mistrusted application of mathematics to proportion (unlike Leonardo)- measure and proportion should be kept in the eye and the hands. • Asserted the artists authority over the patron-bound only by the idea. (artistic license) • Ultimate Humanist artist-a style of vast, expressive strength, complex, titanic forms with tragic grandeur. • Studied under Ghirlandaio but claims to be self-taught. Personality  A complex, brooding genius. Solitary, tempestuous, willful….Michelangelo casts the mold for the persona of the Artist in Western Civilization.  Famous for battles of will with Pope Julius II.
  • 6.  Abstemoious (lived like a poor man despite great wealth). Rough, uncouth, dirty, melancholy, unsociable.  Devout Catholic  Homosexual, wrote love poems to Tommaso dei Cavalieri  Crummy father, wanted son to be a lawyer. Not impressed by fame, and asked son for money. (Daddy Issues ?) Pieta • Commissioned by French Cardinal for Rotunda in Old St. Peters • “pity” or “compassion” • Created at age 23 • Michelangelo had dissected cadavers, shows knowledge of human body • Mary’s has not aged, seems younger than Christ. • Christ has drifted into peaceful sleep, we feel the weight of his body pulled downward • Notice the odd proportions-Mary would be giant if she stood up. • Beautiful polish, luminosity- incredible transformation of stone into lifelike flesh. • Mary’s gesture-appears to offer her son as a sacrifice David • “David” remained important symbol of civic pride of Florence- • Commissioned by Florence Cathedral building committee • Used a giant 18” block of marble that other sculptors had abandoned. • David shown before confrontation over Goliath. • First colossal nude since ancient times. • Career making piece for 26 year old artist. • Embodies Humanist ideas- celebration of the individual, and celebration of the artist as creator of divine works. • Contrapposto (of course) • Original plan called for it to be placed in a high niche in the Florence Cathedral. • Michelangelo adjusted the proportions of the head and the hands to be more visible from great distance. • 3 times the size of average human • Involves the spectator by implying sculptural arena beyond the pedestal • Colossal size communicates heroic importance of mans actions • Potential rather than accomplishment. Looking towards challenge of the future • Tomb of Julius II • First papal commission for Michelangelo
  • 7. • Original design called for two story structure with 28 statues (unprecedented size) • Project interrupted due to lack of funds • Completed with 1/3 of planned figures- (Julius would’ve been very disappointed) • Moses  Tablet of the Law (Commandments) under one arm.  Appears angry, almost in motion-pent up wrath at Israelites for worshipping the Golden Calf.  Musculature expresses energy and might. Strong influence from Hellenistic sculpture.  The "rays of light" that were seen around Moses' face after his meeting with God on Mt Sinai were commonly expressed as horns. (mistranslation of Hebrew word for “rays”). Seated “contrapposto”  “terribilita” (awe inspiring grandeur)  Swirling beard and drapery full of energy  Bound Slave  Originally intended to add 20 statues of captives (slaves) in various attitudes of revolt and exhaustion to Pope’s tomb.  Figures embody powerful emotional states. Violent contrapposto conveys frantic but impotent struggle.  Neo-Platonic Interpretation: o 1.Trapped in matter-the individual struggling to be free from the earthly realm and re-united with the divine spiritual one (GOD). o 2.For Michelangelo-also an allegory for sculptural form struggling to be free from inert stone to embody the platonic idea locked within as a divine work of ART. Sistine Chapel: • Pope Julius II convinced Michelangelo to work on despite protestations. • 5,800 sq ft, 70 ft high, 300 figures (completed in 4 years) • Biblical narrative of Genesis, (9 scenes) Creation to Adam and Eve, Life of Noah • Old Testament scenes placed in pendentives (David, Judith, Haman, Moses, Brazen Serpent). • Other figures: Ancestors of Christ, Sibyls, Prophets, nude youths. • THEMES: Chronology of Christianity, conflict of good and evil, energy of youth and wisdom of age. The Creation of Adam  Includes Unborn Eve  God’s arm leads to an infant Christ (second Adam)
  • 8.  •Expresses the Humanist concept of God: an idealized, rational man who actively tends every aspect of human creation and has a special interest in humans. The Last Judgment • Commissioned by Pope Paul III as part of the Counter- Reformation • Christ as Stern Judge • Terrifying vision of damnation goes beyond Signorelli • Saint Bartholomew (self-portrait?) • Purposeful lack of beauty in many figures • Rises on left, descends on right • Unlike other sacred narratives, which portray events of the past, this one implicates the viewer. It has yet to happen and when it does, the viewer will be among those whose fate is determined. Bellini Saint Francis in the Desert • Saint Francis in ecstatic moment • BUT-No more “stage props” of divinity (gold rays, angels) • Naturalism (beautiful details on rocky ledge, landscape)-borrowing from Northern European artists. • Miraculous stance, but everyday life continues. • Landscape emerges as great theme. Feast of the Gods • Bellini painted figures, Titian (his student) completed landscape after his death. • “Arcadian” landscape (Arcadia=idyllic, peaceful rustic place of simplicity) • Duke of Ferrara (Alfonso d’Este) commissioned for his private room the Camerino d’Alabastro (White Room). Preferred mythological subjects. • Scene from Ovid’s Fasti • Some amorous activity hinted at, pagan sensuousness, never-ending pleasure. Bacchanalia. (Ancient Gods on Spring Break) Giorgione Invented the “Recumbent Nude” No-standard iconography The Tempest • Mysterious and inscrutable • Adam and Eve banished from the Garden?

Artists become international celebrities.  Artists socialize with popes and kings, no longer anonymous craftsmen.  Birth of the idea of the “brooding” artist genius.  Venetian School In the sixteenth century, artists such as Giorgione and Titian preferred a gentler, more sensuous approach to oil painting than had been adopted by the Florentine School. The Venetians used warm atmospheric tones. Distant from the influence of the Papacy, Venetian artists did not shy away from controversial (erotic/pagan) themes. Veronese Titian Giorgione
  • 12. Venice vs Florence and Rome: • Venetian Themes – Poetry of senses – Nature’s beauty – Pleasures of Humanity (Eros) • Florence & Rome Themes – Esoteric, intellectual themes – Conceptions of religion – Grandeur of the ideal Mannerism (1525-1600) “The Stylish Style” Art from Art A style that developed in the sixteenth century as a reaction to the classical rationality and balanced harmony of the high Renaissance; characterized by dramatic use of space and light; exaggerated color, elongation of figures, and distortions of perspective, scale, and proportion. • All problems of representing reality had been solved and art had reached a peak of perfection and harmony – Now what? • Answer: replace harmony with dissonance, reason with emotion, and reality with imagination – Highly subjective, arbitrary light – Unusual color – Dramatic composition – often with vacant centers • Writhing/twisting/elongated bodies: Figura Serpentinata • Less emphasis on balance, symmetry, and rational composition (values of High Renaissance) • Technical Fireworks Methods and Techniques: Sfumato A painting technique using an imperceptible, subtle transition from light to dark, without any clear break or line. The theory was developed and mastered by Leonardo da Vinci, and the term derives from the Italian word fumo, meaning vapor, or smoke.
