"…a počínal tušit, že s obrazy to tady nebude jednoduché." Ekfrastyczność (w) powieści "Cesta do pekel" Václava Vokolka
2019
The article analyses the novel Cesta do pekel written by Václav Vokolek – the Czech prose writer, poet and painter – through the usage of the intersemiotic translation strategies. The plot of the text can be characterized as the contamination of the physically plausible historic world (the construction of the railway in the middle of the 19th century) with the implausible one (the infernal story) according to Lubomír Doležel’s typology. Demonstrating the changes in the arts (the clash of romanticism with realism), the novelist sensitizes the reader to the drastic introversion into nature, as exemplifi ed by the urbanization processes in the north of the Czech Republic. At the same time, the…

Lo scopo di questo studio è quello di fornire un supporto al restauratore quando si trova ad affrontare un manufatto con doratura a foglia di stagno. Lo studio dei materiali originali ha fornito un quadro completo dei vari componenti coinvolti, organici e inorganici, e sono stati delineati i degradi più comuni, nonché i metodi di conservazione per questi materiali estremamente fragili e sensibili come le foglie metalliche The purpose of this study is to provide a support for the restorer when facing an artifact with tin leaf gilding. The study of the original materials gave a complete picture of the various components involved, organic and inorganic, and the most common degradations were ou…
Aproximación al higienismo en la arquitectura de Rafael Guastavino
2021
La obra de Rafael Guastavino Moreno (1842-1908) está vinculada habitualmente a la construcción con bóveda tabicada, un sistema constructivo tradicional originario del Levante peninsular que este arquitecto combinó con el mortero de cemento para erigir un gran número de edificios de muy diverso tipo tanto en Barcelona como posteriormente en Estados Unidos. Sin embargo, estos autores han defendido en otras ocasiones la versatilidad de Guastavino como arquitecto y hasta qué punto la bóveda tabicada no supuso en un principio el cuaderno de bitácora único ni principal para su trayectoria profesional. La bóveda tabicada representó una herramienta más en la panoplia de sus habilidades, entre las c…
Enquête sur l’atelier : histoire, fonctions, transformations
2014
Une stylisation de l’histoire de l’atelier d’artiste fait dependre ses fonctions du degre d’individualisation du travail createur, des innovations esthetiques et de l’economie de la production artistique. La periodisation qui suit fournit une trame sommaire. Indistinction entre art et artisanat d’abord : les ateliers sont situes dans les monasteres, dans les demeures des mecenes de la cour ou se confondent avec le domicile ou avec la boutique d’artisan en ville. Variabilite croissante des emp...
Identification by GC-FID and GC-MS of amino acids, fatty and bile acids in binding media used in works of art.
2001
GC-FID was used as single methodology for the identification and differentiation of proteins, lipids and ox bile from binders used in artistic paintings. The samples were hydrolyzed by HCl. Subsequently, the simultaneous formation of volatile derivatives of the amino, fatty and bile acids with ethyl chloroformate was performed quickly and safely in an aqueous medium. The derivatives were separated by capillary GC and characterized by GC-MS. The ageing of drying oils was studied, identifying pelargonic acid among other degradation products. Proteinaceous and lipoid binding media were characterized by means of the quotients between the areas of the peaks for each amino or fatty acid with resp…
Preliminary Study of the Mural Paintings of Sotterra Church in Paola (Cosenza, Italy)
2022
A multi-analytical approach was employed to study wall paintings located in the Sotterra church at Paola, in the province of Cosenza, Italy. The site is an underground church (hence the name of Sotterra, which means “under the earth”) rediscovered in the second half of the 19th century, during the building works of the Madonna del Carmine church on the same area. This underground church preserves valuable mural paintings having different styles. The construction’s dating and overlapped modifications made until the site was abandoned is also debated. A wall painting, depicting “The Virgin” as part of the “Annunciation and the Archangel Gabriel” prese…
Pintar la arquitectura: la representación de la arquitectura tardogótica en la pintura valenciana de la segunda mitad del siglo XV
2021
During the period between 1370 and 1520, Valencia experimented a profound renovation of the architectural language echoed in the contemporaneous pictorial representations, through the description of the spaces and characteristic elements of an architectonic vocabulary. In that sense, the pictorial representation constitutes a source of documental information that provides an immediate image of the material environment at that time. It participates in the context and conception of the epoch it was painted, becoming an exceptional testimony of the past it illustrates. In the pictorial representations, the architecture and landscape are essential components in the scene composition, for they e…
El Greco - teologia ukryta w geście
2019
Na obrazach El Greca można zaobserwować różne ważne gesty. Jeden z nich powtarza się wielokrotnie – tajemniczy gest, który niemal jak podpis występuje na wielu malowidłach stworzonych przez artystę: złączone dwa palce (środkowy i serdeczny) oraz oddzielone od nich kciuk, wskazujący i mały. Specjaliści od twórczości El Greca przedstawiają różne rozwiązania (gest oratorski, gest przysięgi, gest typowy dla manierystów, gest żydowski czy pokutny, związany z duchowością jezuitów, gest masoński, jedna z mudr – symbolicznych gestów energetycznych, gest laktacyjny – pseudozygodaktyliczny). Autor artykułu wskazuje przede wszystkim interpretację teologiczną tego gestu: wyznanie wiary w Trójjedynego B…
