Conférence : Martin Clayton, «’Describe the jaw of a crocodile’: Leonardo da Vinci’s Animal Anatomies », Londres, Courtauld Institute of Art, 9 mai 2024, 17h30

Leonardo’s anatomical work was the most accomplished of his many scientific studies. Like all his research, it combined traditional beliefs with acute direct observation, including the dissection of up to thirty human cadavers. But Leonardo also studied and dissected animals at many points of his career. His subjects included horses, bears, monkeys, frogs, dogs and oxen – as surrogates for human material, as independent subjects of study, and on occasion to compare explicitly human and...

Conférence : Peter Mason, « Ulisse Aldrovandi Naturalist and Collector », Londres/en ligne, Warburg Institute, 19 avril 2024

Renaissance Lives – Ulisse Aldrovandi Naturalist and Collector Peter Mason in conversation with David Lines (Warwick) The Bolognese naturalist Ulisse Aldrovandi was a prolific writer, polymath and prodigious collector who amassed the largest collection of naturalia in sixteenth-century Europe, as well as hundreds of coloured drawings detailing them. Many of these drawings found their way into his illustrated publications, most of which were published posthumously.
This book provides a concise yet comprehensive portrait of Aldrovandi, paying...

Appel à contribution : « Collecting, Growing, and Exploring in Early Modernity », Paris, EPHE, 11 juin 2024, date limite le 15 janvier 2024

The last few decades have produced a number of studies devoted to the relationship between collecting and science, highlighting the relationship between a growing interest in botany and the fascination with the collection of naturalia, especially from the mid-sixteenth century onwards. 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...

Parution : Brigitte Buettner, « The Mineral and the Visual. Precious Stones in Medieval Secular Culture », Pennsylvanie, Penn State University Press, 2022

Opulent jeweled objects ranked among the most highly valued works of art in the European Middle Ages. At the same time, precious stones prompted sophisticated reflections on the power of nature and the experience of mineralized beings. Beyond a visual regime that put a premium on brilliant materiality, how can we account for the ubiquity of gems in medieval thought? In The Mineral and the Visual, art historian Brigitte Buettner examines the social roles, cultural...

Colloque : « Animal et portrait à la Renaissance, “De bestiae dignitate” », Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature / Musée national de la Renaissance – Château d’Ecouen, 16-17 mai 2022

Dédié au portrait animal à la Renaissance, le colloque interrogera les liens qui ont attaché bêtes et humains en Europe entre le XVe siècle et le début du XVIIe, jusque dans l’art du portrait. Car c’est précisément au moment où cet art connaît ses plus grandes évolutions qu’apparaissent les effigies animales individualisées, autonomes pour certaines d’entre elles. Dans leur quête d’individuation, dans la construction de leur propre image, les êtres humains ont en effet éprouvé...
