Ravenna in the Imagination of Renaissance Art by Alexander Nagel (English) Paper

Description: Ravenna in the Imagination of Renaissance Art by Alexander Nagel, Giancarla Periti It is clear that Renaissance artists and their patrons were interested in Ravennas buildings and their decorations, both before Vasaris negative pronouncements and after them. Contemporary European travelers and diarists have left descriptions of the citys heritage, by then in ruinous condition. What happens if we reinsert this corpus of Ravennas treasures and their multiple imbrications into our histories of Renaissance art? How can our narratives change if we trace and study an almost forgotten, albeit rich and articulated series of intersections between Ravennas splendors and ambitious works of art and architecture from early modern Italy? We have ignored a series of visual engagements and imaginative plays with Ravennas forms, materials, and iconographies, folding the past into the present and the present into the past. These instances of creative imitations and recreations can best be recovered if we focus on the Renaissance production and humanists accounts of the citys treasures, that is, works in various media and size, to map out an extended dimension of early modern visual culture.
