These objects of natural origins aroused the admiration of enthusiasts and scientists alike. This passion for collecting reached various corners of society: the academic garden at Leiden University included an ambulacrum that housed dried...

Journée d’étude : « ‘Da la man l’arte la tua lingua apprese’. Romano Alberti tra arte e letteratura », Florence, Fondazione Memofonte/en ligne, 15 décembre 2023

Arte, letteratura, armi, accademia: sono questi gli aspetti che Romano Alberti, incisore, poeta e trattatista, riuscì a coniugare nella sua turbolenta vita, configurandosi sullo scorcio del Cinquecento come emblema dell’intellettuale “militante”. Del ramo degli Alberti di Sansepolcro, cresciuto in un ambiente artistico floridissimo, Romano partecipò in maniera attiva al riassetto dell’Accademia di San Luca negli anni ’80, di cui resta traccia nella sua attività di trattatista d’arte. Partecipò poi alle scene letterarie napoletane, gravitanti intorno...

Below the monarch, nobility, and land-owning gentry in the highly stratified society of sixteenth-century England stood those known as the “middling sort.” Like their compatriots of higher rank, they too saw art and architecture as a means of self-fashioning. This exhibition examines the emergence of distinctly middle-class taste in late medieval England by showcasing a rare set of large-scale domestic sculptures from Exeter. Commissioned by a merchant named Henry Hamlyn, the sculptures, which adorned the...
