| Sumario: | Euphronios a peint...: "Cratère d'Héraklès et Antée" Musée du Louvre The krater of Heracles and Antaeus describes a famous fight in Greek mythology. It is one of the most beautiful pieces in the Louvre Museum. The krater is signed by Euphronios, a painter whose refined style can be found on numerous objects. Around 510 B.C., a pictorial change came to pass Fayoum : le dernier regard : "The European Woman", Fayoum portrait of a young woman, Reign of Hadrian, c.117-138 BC, (Antinous site, Middle Egypt) About 750 funerary portraits, preserved by the dry sands of Egypt for approximately 2000 years, have been found, most of them in the Fayoum region, hence the generic term "Fayoum portraits". These paintings were attached to mummies after embalming. They are especially remarkable in that they are the only record we possess of the picture-painting techniques of the ancient world, since almost all the surviving examples of Greek and Roman painting are murals. These portraits are painted in encaustic on wood or in some cases, in tempera directly onto the shroud. Their remarkable stylistic features prefigure icons and represent the first stages of a naturalistic style of portraiture which makes several reappearances in art history. Some are strikingly realistic; others are simpler and more diagrammatic, almost Cubist in style; a third group belong to a naive, popular genre. All the techniques for making a portrait seem lifelike which were discovered or rediscovered later on, in the Renaissance, are already present - shading, contours, highlights in the eyes or on the lips, expressions of personality or emotions. The portrait known as "The European Woman" is one of the finest Pompéi : cérémonies secrètes : The Frescoes of the Villa of the Mysteries, 1st century A.D., Pompeii In April 1909, in the countryside north-west of the city walls of Pompeii, a large Roman villa was unearthed from the ashes. Its many living-spaces included a rectangular room whose walls were adorned with painted scenes set against a bright vermilion background, in which twenty-nine figures, some in Greek and some in Roman dress, take part in a number of puzzling scenes. For almost a century, historians, archaeologists and scholars have been trying to make sense of the attitudes, costumes, scenery and objects depicted in the frescoes. As soon as the villa was unearthed, the central character was identified as Dionysus, the god of wine, madness and the theatre, and it has been suggested that some of the postures depicted represent different stages of initiation into the Dionysian Mysteries, hence the name eventually fixed on for the site. But opinion remains divided on the precise interpretation of the scenes and even today, it is still hard to know quite what to make of the interwoven symbols, allegories and allusions running through this huge fresco, which is one of the most complete and best-preserved paintings from the ancient world. |
