“ A Taste of the Theatrical and stress on movement and compositional variety..Emotional and Psychological portrayals” Baroque means- irregular shapes It was odd that anyone would want to leave the Renaissance! Counter Reformation- finds a foothold in Italy, Flanders, Spain and France Baroque in Holland becomes the voice of the Reformation- vs Catholic art Baroque painting- two schools of thought: classics inspired by Raphael and the naturalists inspired by Titan Experimentation with art forms: genre, landscapes, still lifes and ELEVATES them to traditional work Baroque Architecture- associated with the royal courts of Europe

By 1600 the Catholic Church really had to finish St. Peter’s
By 1650 Versailles was built and the capital of art shifted from Rome! To PARIS- until 1913 30 Year’s War was over religion- Reformation vs Counter Reformation- Devestating in Europe and grinding art production to a halt in 17th Century Protestants were breaking images and Catholics were making images Protestants hated Saints and Catholics loved their saints. Protestants did not believe in miracles and the Catholics depicted Miracles!
4
Baroque associated with the rulers and courts of Europe- but was very
Popular in Holland because of the new merchantile system and new genres Modern tastes developed in Holland: landscapes, portraits, group portraits, genre Groupings Small works were designed to fit into houses- more intimate places No merchantile work was shown- romantic views of same Layers of intellectual symbolism- vanitas as an example Protestant Churches- stark and bare

Baroque Architecture:
Movement Facades that undulate Shadow alternating with light Wavelike entrances Entrances topped with pediments or tympana- concave or convex Borromini and Guarini- top names DRAMA in the interiors to combine all the arts- painting and sculpture For one whole effect Large, ornate, elaborate staircases that are carved and change direction! Palaces and gardens become important. THE LONG VIEW.. With key windows. Avenues of trees. Size becomes important; elaboration, papal patrons.

In costume, both Rembrandt and Saskia. They are play acting… This is not unusual for the time period. They are shown at the table and he is preoccupied wth his work. He often reworked his plates. This is just one example. Rembrandt did not do well in his life time all the time. He routinely lost fortunes and gained them again. He was often peniless and died so.

Art of New Spain Spanish Colonies in the Americas The Old World Set about to conquer the New World and the New World Rulers and people fell from advanced technology and disease. The Old World married into the New World and established a hierarchy which Was made formal and public through the caste paintings. They also connected Mexico with Asis- 4 month trip Spices, ceramics, silks, ivory in Mexico. Asian life was changed by the trade with the New World as well. Because Spain was inundated with Napoleonic Wars. Spanish colonies sought independence. Spain lost its territories to Simone Bolivar and Jose de San Martin. By 1822 the rule of Spain was over. Spanish brought Catholism, and new works of art by Native Artists. They were Not afraid to use native artists, and native influence and inter marriage. The Eastern Coast of US was much more concervative. First Center of European Art was in Cusco.New styles were taught and Spanish costumes and clothing worn. Artists were anonymous, and were combinations of old and new world. The Manila Galleon ( Spanish Boats to Asia) brought raw materials from Asia.

Image 81 Frontespiece of the Codex Mendoza
1542 Named after Mendoza, the viceroy of New Spain. Intended as a history of the Aztecs to Charles V of the Holy Roman Empire and it never made it there. IT was created 20 years after the events of the Spanish conquest, and showed daily life of the Aztecs. All the pages were later annotated in Spanish. This is the founding of Tenochtitlan( land of the prickly pear cactus) and showed conquests on the bottom. The city was divided into cardinal directions… shown by the divisions, which are waterways. Enemy temples are on fire while the Aztec warriors carry clubs. Templo Mayor above the Eagle. And the humming bird is Huitzilopochtli to the left of the Eagle. The Tenochs showed the people where to settle.

Inage 90 Master of Calamarca Angel with Arquebus, Asiel Timor Dei c. 1680The harquebus is a firearm with a long barrel created by the Spanish in the mid-fifteenth century. It was the first gun to rest on the shoulder when being fired and was at the forefront of military weapon technology at the time. During the early eighteenth century, the Bolivian painter, the Master of Calamarca—identified as José López de los Ríos—or his workshop created a well known series of paintings depicting angels with harquebuses, which includedArchangel with Gun, Asiel Timor Dei. The Latin inscription of Archangel with Gun, Asiel Timor Dei indicates the name of the angel, Asiel, and a particular quality: Fears God. This painting was found by itself, but was likely part of a larger series that included angels performing other activities such as drumming and holding lances. Gun is not ready to fire and angel is not looking in the right place to fire… Derived from paintings in Europe of military exercises. One from a series of angels doing non-angel things. Gold Embroidery is indigenous. This might have been an updated version of winged warriors from Pre-Columbian Art. Well advertised second coming of christ… with angels and guns!

Image 95 Miguel Gonzalez- Our Lady of Guadalupe- oil on canvas with mother of pearl. Los Angels County Art Museum. 1698 Oil on canvas on wood with mother of pearl and metal frame. This is an Enconchados work. Mary appears to a Native American on a shrine of a Native American goddess. Juan Diego was told to tell the Bishop to built a shrine to Mary on this spot. Juan Diego’s clothing held the image of the Virgin and he brought a flower from her. Mexican eagle and cactus on the bottom. Mary stands on a crescent moon surrounded by sun rays . Roundels tell the story of Juan Diego and the image of Mary. Enconchados is Asian influence. This Image was made for export. These are all copies of the original.
61
This work is signed by Miguel González, who along with his brother Juan González, is considered the foremost painter of enconchados. Invented in Mexico, the enconchado technique consisted of placing tiny fragments of mother-of-pearl onto a wooden support or a canvas, and then covering them with a yellowish tint and thin glazes of paint. The technique, which is inspired by Asian decorative arts, imparts a brilliant luminosity to the works due to the iridescence of the shell fragments. Throughout the colonial period there was a significant influx of Asian goods to Mexico via the legendary Manila Galleons that connected the East to the West. The Japanese embassies of 1610 and 1614 to Mexico also contributed to the fashion for Asian inspired objects. Interestingly, at the beginning of the seventeenth century, Japan and New Spain made attempts to formalize trade relations, but the effort was thwarted in part due to Japan's desire to curtail contact with the West following the country's unification. As the art historian Sonia Ocaña Ruiz has noted, by the second half of the seventeenth century the importation of Japanese goods to the colony had radically decreased, which may have spurred the creation of Asian inspired objects in New Spain to fulfill local demand (e.g. ceramics, folding screens, and enconchados).

Image 97Juan Rodriguez Indian and Spaniard produce a Mestizo 1715 Casta painting So states an inscription on José Joaquín Magón’s painting, The Mestizo, made in New Spain (Spanish colonial Mexico) during the second half of the eighteenth century. The painting displays a Spanish father and Indigenous mother with their son, and it belongs to a larger series of works that seek to document the inter-ethnic mixing occurring in New Spain among Europeans, indigenous peoples, Africans, and the existing mixed-race population. This genre of painting, known as pinturas de castas, or caste paintings, attempts to capture reality, yet they are largely fictions.

Image 99 Miguel Cabrera Portrait of Sor Juana Inez de la Cruz Oil on Canvas ( Sister Juana Agnes) Miguel Cabrera’s posthumous portrait of sor Juana Inés de la Cruz ( ) is a famous depiction of the esteemed Mexican nun and writer. Considered the first feminist of the Americas, sor Juana lived as a nun of the Jeronymite order (named for St. Jerome) in seventeenth-century Mexico. Rather than marry, she chose to become a nun so she could pursue her intellectual interests. She corresponded with scientists, theologians, and other literary intellectuals in Mexico and abroad. She wrote poetry and plays that became internationally famous, and even engaged in theological debates. Her Life Born to a creole family in 1648, sor Juana was a child prodigy. At the age of fifteen, she amazed people at court by excelling at an oral exam that tested her knowledge of physics, philosophy, theology, and mathematics. In 1690 she became involved in an ecclesiastical dispute between the bishops of Mexico City and Puebla. She responded to the criticism she received as a woman writer, which culminated in one of her most famous works: The Answer(1691). This work defended her right as a woman to write and to be a scholar. At one she claimed that I do not study in order to write, nor far less in order to teach (which would be boundless arrogance in me), but simply to see whether by studying I may become less ignorant. This is my answer, and these are my feelings Despite her eloquent defense, the Church forced her to relinquish her literary pursuits and even her library. When she sold her library and musical and scientific instruments, she wrote a document that renounced her learning, which ended with “I, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, the worst in the world,” signed in her own blood. After giving up her intellectual pursuits, she cared for the infirm during an epidemic but she fell sick and passed away.
