La pintura de flores de Miguel Parra (1780-1846)
2013
Although Miguel Parra Abril (Valencia, 1780-Madrid, 1846) is one of the most important Valencian School painters of floral still lifes, this aspect of his work remains little known. The present article addresses this oversight in two ways. First, by offering an overview of his oeuvre as a painter of floral subjects from his student days at the Fine Arts Academy of Valencia through his mature works. Second, by analyzing two heretofore-unpublished floral compositions in relation to his more familiar works, particularly those located in private collections until recent years.Aunque Miguel Parra Abril (Valencia, 1780-Madrid, 1846) es uno de los pintores de flores más importantes de la Escuela v…

Painting the United States’ Civil War: Or creating a Brotherly War
2015
This article seeks to illustrate Benedict Anderson’s theory of the “Reassurance of Fratricide” and “the act of remembering/forgetting” through depictions of the Civil War in US fine arts. This is mostly done through the Smithsonian art data base and the paintings referenced under the label Civil War, spanning from the 1860s to the 1890s. This paper first analyzes how these paintings were used to depict the Confederate soldier’s otherness as typically American and thus helped with the post-war reintegration of the Confederacy. This study then examines how in certain paintings the war was brought inside the realm of domesticity and family, which reinforced the idea of a fratricide and a famil…
Obraz abstrakcyjny jako specyficzne dzieło literackie
2017
The thesis o f this article is a claim th at on abstract pain tin g is a literary work of a p a rticu la r kind. In this theory, on co n stru ctio n of a literary work an d on co n stru ctio n of a representational painting, Ingarden points to th e ir layered composition, simultaneously denying this ąu ality to abstract paintings. Indeed, an abstract p a in tin g lacks layers which are characteristic of representational p aintings, but it has a sound - meaning bilayer typical o f a literary work yet expressed by different means. The lack o f time dimension and literary theme, however, causes th at such a work of a rt is similar to ancient philosophical and religious treaties.

Wieloautorska monografia, pod naukową redakcją ks. Piotra Góreckiego, powstała z okazji 350. rocznicy budowy murowano-drewnianego kościoła pw. św. Jerzego w Gliwicach-Ostropie oraz 300. rocznicy jego poświęcenia.

The nature of black stains in Lascaux Cave, France, as revealed by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy
2012
We used surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy to investigate the chemical composition of the black stains threatening the rock-art paintings of Lascaux Cave, Montignac, France. The stains are mainly composed of melanin from the fungus Ochroconis sp. and the faecal pellets of the collembolan Folsomia candida. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy is a useful technique for revealing the structure of unknown macromolecules in cultural heritage research. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. The chemical composition of the black stains threatening the rock-art paintings of Lascaux Cave, Montignac, France was studied using surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). The stains are mainly composed…
