Book of Hours |
Illumination on parchment Stadtbibliothek, Nuremberg This page representing the Death of the Virgin is from the Book of Hours. This manuscript has a text-page layout which came to be almost universally adopted for Books of Hours during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. The Nuremberg manuscript is puzzling since its contents show that it was designed for use in England or by someone with English connections. However, it is certainly a Parisian production. The page illustrated shows the opening of the Hours of the Virgin. The upper part of the page is occupied by an illustration, still at this stage connected to the initial letters of the text. From this illustration springs foliage decoration which branches down and round to enclose the text beneath. This scheme is satisfactory since the foliage sprays bind text and picture together to form a pleasing surface pattern, and it is not surprising that it was widely adopted.

Book of Prayers |
1470 -90 Illumination on parchment Biblioth?que Nationale, Paris The codex was executed for Louis Laval de Chatillon, a French nobleman by the workshop of Jean Colombe (1440-93). It contains the representations of the twelve sibyls and more than a thousand miniatures. This page represents the Eryhtrean Sibyl. The white rose is the symbol of the Annunciation, since - according to tradition - this sibyl previewed the birth of Christ. , MINIATURIST, French , Book of Prayers , 1451-1500 , French , illumination , religious |

Book of Prayers of St Elisabeth of Hungary |
1220 Illumination on parchment Museo Archeologico Nazionale, Cividale The two scenes in a single frame depict Biblical scenes: the Annunciation and the Birth of Christ. At the left side of each scene a prophet (Amos and Isaias) can be seen. The style of the miniatures reflects the influence of the so-called new-Byzantine style prevailing in the workshops of Erfurt. The codex originally belonged to Sophie, Princess of Bavaria. According to an inscription on page 2, St Elisabeth gave it to the Treasury of the Cividale church in 1220.

Bust of a woman |
1688-89 Marble, life-size Palazzo Pitti, Florence Portraiture broadened considerably during the late Baroque period. Complementary to the imaginary portraits of anti-heroic types was the celebration of ideal beauty in female busts loosely based upon Classical prototypes. These were often commissioned to adorn palace interiors and are related to garden sculpture in that they strike Classical poses without being specifically related to a given prototype. The bust by Piamontini on the staircase of Palazzo Pitti in Florence epitomize this trend: their heads are vaguely Classical but their drapery retains a flicker of Baroque agitation. Artist: PIAMONTINI, Giuseppe Painting Title: Bust of a woman , 1651-1700 Painting Style: Italian , sculpture Type: portrait |

Cain and his Children Accursed of God |
height 204 cm Chapel of the Salp?tri?re Hospital, Paris Although Romanticism made its appearance in painting from 1820 onwards, there was a gap of ten years before it was expressed in sculpture at the Salon of 1831 by Duseigneur's Orlando Furioso, with its bulging muscles and twisted limbs, and the Tiger and Crocodile by Barye. These works were soon followed by Etex's Cain, executed in Rome, as a bravado gesture because he did not win the Grand Prix, and by the creations of Pr?ault. Author: ETEX, Antoine Title: Cain and his Children Accursed of God Form: sculpture , 1801-1850 , French , religious |
