Up to now the theme of the artist in the service of Italian courts has been examined in various studies focused mostly on the High Renaissance, as though the phenomenon was relevant only to the XV and XVI centuries. It actually lasted much longer, spanning the whole longue durée of the lives of the courts of the ancient regime. The present volume intends to fill this gap, presenting for the first time a comprehensive examination of the subject of the court artist from sixteenth to seventeenth century and the transformations of this role. “Court artist” is here defined as one who received a regular salary, and was therefore attached to the court by a more or less exclusive service relationship. The book is divided in six chapters: each of them examines the position of the court artist in the service of the most important ruling families in Italy (the Savoy in Turin, the Gonzaga in Mantua, the Este in Modena, the Della Rovere in Pesaro and Urbino, the Medici in Florence) and in papal Rome, a particular and unique center of power.
"This reference classic has approximately doubled in size since its last publication 20 years ago, and the expansion involves more than the thorough revision and addition of articles about music of the past. More articles about 20th-century composers and composer-performers have been added, as well as topical articles about the gender-related, multicultural, and interdisciplinary ways that music is now being studied. Add to these changes that New Grove is also available online, making it a source that would have made its many-faceted creator Sir George Grove proud"--Outstanding reference sources, American Libraries, May 2002.
25 anni di carriera nel top management nazionale e internazionale in aziende private, imprese di consulenza direzionale, gruppi e fondi di investimento. Interviste, idee, consigli, visioni sul futuro, e alcune delle biografie narrate dei più grandi leader della Storia. Due manager italiani, con la medesima passione, raccontano l’arte e il cuore del loro essere leader. Attraverso un testo agile e innovativo, fatto di tag e cloud, Al cuore della leadership è un libro ispirazionale. Un testo che si interroga sulla necessità del fare in un continuo rimando tra passione e performance, tra decisionalità e sogni di gioventù, e che mette in campo tutto ciò che rende grande un’impresa: la solitudine, le scelte, la condivisione, gli orizzonti verticali che ci attendono, le sfide che porteranno a domani, il tempo collaborativo, persino le sconfitte che ci faranno crescere. Al cuore della leadership parla dell’arte del prendere decisioni, non solo con la testa ma, di più, con il cuore. Di un leader.
Lomazzo's Aesthetic Principles Reflected in the Art of his Time explores the work of the Milanese artist-theorist Giovanni Paolo Lomazzo (1538–92) and his influence on the circle of the Accademia della Val di Blenio and beyond. Following reflections on Lomazzo's fortuna critica, the accompanying essays examine his admiration of Gaudenzio Ferrari; Lomazzo’s painted oeuvre; his influence on printmaking with Giovanni Ambrogio Brambilla; on drawing and painting with Aurelio Luini; on the decorative arts and the embroideress Caterina Cantoni; his pupils Giovanni Ambrogio Figino and Girolamo Ciocca; grotesque sculpture outside Milan; and Lomazzo in England with Richard Haydocke’s translation of the Trattato. In doing so, this book takes an innovative approach—one which aims to bridge the scholarship, hitherto disjoined, between Lomazzo the artist and Lomazzo the theorist—while expanding our knowledge of a protagonist of Renaissance and early modern art theory.
