teacher profile teaching materials
You have in front of you a work of art, a painting that is rarely exhibited, you can look at it closely with a magnifying glass, take apart its frame, touch (with gloves) the pictorial surface, you can turn it over, record the numbers or seals with which it is covered, and then what? Through this course, which is eminently workshop-based in nature, it is intended to prompt, strengthen, and problematize the students' manual skills and knowledge through direct confrontation with a limited number of paintings executed in the Flemish and Dutch areas from the 15th to the 18th centuries. For this purpose, the students will be welcomed one morning each week (on Fridays) at the Museo Laboratorio of the Barberini Corsini National Galleries, where, with the help of Dr. Paola Nicita and the collaboration of Prof. Giovanna Sapori, they will be introduced to the analysis of the work of art, its state of preservation, and the elements that contribute to the attestation of its collecting and material history. Conversely, in-class lectures will serve to contextualize the works within the stylistic, iconographic tradition, sources, and historiographical treatment, but above all within the framework of a general outline of the art history of the southern and northern Netherlands in the modern age. Each work, from the copy to the masterpiece, from the painting of the highest quality to that of commonplace workmanship, will participate directly in the process of discovering a school, a genre, a technique of execution, a medium, a relative and absolute chronology.
