Parution : Steven J. Cody et Tiffany Lynn Hunt (dir.), “The Mannerist Altarpiece – Painting and Religious Experience in Sixteenth-Century Italy”, Leyde, Brill, 2026

Formally elegant, stylistically refined, rarefied in their display of knowledge and skill, Mannerist altarpieces are endlessly fascinating. Whereas previous scholarship aligns Mannerism with the world of secular concerns, the authors included in this volume chart a different course of interpretation. According to our argument, Mannerist altarpieces offer spectators a type of religious experience so stylized, so exquisitely beautiful that it becomes a work of art itself. In this respect, The Mannerist Altarpiece raises new possibilities for thinking...

Parution : Michail Chatzidakis, “Transformationen der Antike bei Raffael und seinem Umkreis”, Berlin, Deutscher Kunstverlag, 2025

The murals of the Battle of the Milvian Bridge and the Vision of the Cross in the Sala di Costantino in the Vatican, named after the fresco-cycle conceived by Raphael and executed by Giulio Romano, are regarded by scholars as originating from an intense study of antiquity in Raphael’s circle, followed by a desire to achieve an historically accurate approach to ancient art. However, Raphael was recognised already by Giorgio Vasari, Ludovico Dolce and Annibale Carracci, not only for his expertise...

Colloque : “Giulio Romano between Rome, Jerusalem Mantua and the Louvre”, Tel Aviv, Tel Aviv University, le 5 janvier 2026

Rethinking Triumph: Giulio Romano between Rome, Jerusalem Mantua and the Louvre Between 1536 and 1540, the gabinetto dei Cesari in the Gonzaga Ducal Palace of Mantua was decorated through an exceptional collaboration between Titian and the workshop of Giulio Romano. Conceived as a unified decorative ensemble, the room brought together Titian’s now-lost series of eleven painted portraits of Roman emperors with an elaborate framework of stucco reliefs, small statues, equestrian images, and painted storie designed...

Séminaire : Barbara Furlotti, « The Long Road to Success. Giulio Romano between Rome and Mantua », en ligne, 11 janvier-8 février 2024

In his Lives of the Artists (1568), Giorgio Vasari describes Giulio Romano (1492 or 1499/1546) as “inventive, versatile, prolific”, but also “jovial, affable, gracious and absolutely abounding in the finest manners”. Having met Giulio in Mantua and having spent a few days leafing through his outstanding collection of drawings, Vasari’s opinion was based on first-hand experience. For him, Giulio embodied the ideal Italian Renaissance artist: someone who possessed a prodigious talent and the manners of...

Colloque : Gernsheim Study Days: Accident or Strategy. The Collecting of Drawings in 16th and 17th Century Italy, Rome, Bibliotheca Hertziana, 10-12 mai 2023

Conférence en ligne : Barbara Furlotti, Eroticism, emulation, and censorship: the ‘Two Lovers’ by Giulio Romano, 10 février, 5 pm (GMT)

Giulio Romano (1492/1499-1546), Raphael’s favourite pupil, played a key role in the awakening of a new approach to eroticism in Renaissance art. Engaging with openly pornographic subjects and more traditional mythological themes, such as the loves of the gods, Giulio became one of the most imaginative and provocative Renaissance painters of erotically charged scenes. This paper focuses on the most puzzling of his erotic paintings: the Two Lovers from the Hermitage. Relying on recent conservation...

Appel à contribution : Early-Modern Design: Processes and Practices, RSA, Dublin, du 30 mars au 2 avril 2022, date limite le 22 juillet 2021

Today, the notion of design is inextricably linked to modernist mass-production. Early-modern artists also received briefs for designing elegant yet functional objects to embellish the environment in which their patrons lived. These objects were the result of intense collaboration which called upon artistic ingenuity, sophisticated craftsmanship and technological advances. However, unlike modern design objects, early modern design creations were unique, exclusive, and competitive in their originality and invention. The case of Giulio Romano (c. 1492...
