SILK

CREPE DE CHINE is a silk, wool, or polyester fabric of a gauzy texture, having a peculiar crisp or crimpy appearance. (The word crape is also used as an Anglicized spelling of Crêpe.) Silk crape is woven of hard spun silk yarn in the gum or natural condition. There are two distinct varieties of the textile: soft, Canton, or Oriental crape, and hard or crisped crape. Thin crêpe is called crêpe de Chine ("Chinese crêpe").

GEORGETTE (shortened from crêpe Georgette or Georgette crêpe) is a sheer, lightweight, dull-finished crêpe fabric named after the early 20th century French modiste, Georgette de la Plante. Originally made of silk and later of rayon or blends, modern georgette is often made of synthetic filament yarns. Georgette is plain or tabby woven, and like other crêpes is made with highly-twisted yarns. Georgette's characteristic crinkly surface is created by alternating S- and Z-twist yarns in both warp and weft. Georgette is made in solid colors or prints, and is used for blouses, dresses, evening gowns, and trimmings. It is springier and less lustrous than the closely-related chiffon.

Georgette è normale o tabby tessuti, e come gli altri crêpes è realizzato con filati molto ritorto. Caratteristica superficie crespi Georgette è creata alternando S-e

    This paper will explore very important differences and similarities of two master pieces of art work, both named "Madonna and Child", available at Metropolitan Museum of Art. First piece, "Madonna and Child" C.1230, was made by Berlinghiero, an Italian artist who lived in early thirteenth century. The other version of "Madonna and Child" was made in 1480's, by a famous Venetian artist Giovanni Bellini, who lived between 1430-1516. Therefore, this short paper will be an attempt to show the change in art occurred in the same area but in different times.Starting with the "Madonna and Child" of Berlinghiero, which is a very unnatural image, Mary and Christ look flat because there is lack of showing depth. Mary is holding Jesus in her arm in front of a golden background. While Jesus looks towards his right, Mary is looking at the viewer. She has suffering expression in her face. The lines around her eyes and forehead, and her lips shows that she is upset. Mary appears like she knows the future crucifixion of her son. Also another reason why she is upset, would be the isolation and anger towards her because of having a baby in an illegitimate way, which is not true but most of the people didn't understand when she gave a birth to Christ . Mary's hands, one holding Jesus, one pointing him, are very thin and long. Jesus, unlike Mary, has a calm expression and his face looks very old and mature for his body's size. He is holding a scroll, probably it's a religious text from the Bible, which may refer to bringing the direct afflatus of the Holy Spirit.Performing "Madonna and Child", Berlinghiero was influenced by Byzantine icons, small portable paintings depicting holy figures usually Christ and the Virgin. This icon-like image exhibits many of the characteristics of Byzantine traits, for instance, the Virgin's long straight nose and small mouth, schematic linear folds of Christ's robe.When examining…

    In this artwork attributed to Luca della Robbia made in 1460-70, Virgin and Child with lilies depicts Mary as the mother of God, instead of the queen in heaven, and emphasized the maternal side of Virgin and the human nature side of Christ. As one of the most popular devotional subject, it conveys the purity and virgin statues of Mary through symbolic pattern such as lilies and a suggestion of Virgin Mary’s perpetual virginity through the annunciation angels, which Virgin Mary born Christ the child without sin, to present the holy spirit of Virgin Mary and, therefore, evoke devotions to Virgin Mary. In addition, when comparing to Giotto’s Ognissanti Madonna in the Ognissanti Church in Florence, this relief shows us a shift towards naturalism in its depicting of Virgin and child, as well as presenting of space and colors, which fits into Vasari’s description of an naturalism art development trend. Finally, due to the size of the artwork, I suggest this piece of work was for domestic use, instead of for public devotion in churches. I also suggest it might was made to hang exteriorly on the wall near a garden due to its durable characteristic of terracotta and the subject depicted as Virgin and Child in nature.…

    A cassone is essentially another word for a great chest. The housemaid looking down at the young girl as she rummages in a chest is another example that symbolizes motherhood. Titian’s twin cassoni is equivalent to the bouquet of roses and the myrtle plant in that they are all bridal attributes that appear in other Renaissance paintings. These bridal attributes, also seen in Titian’s Sacred and Profane Love and in Lorenzo Lotto’s Marsilio Cassotti, and His Bride, Faustina, finished in 1523 (Figure 5), are just a few examples of the allegory of marriage found in this painting.…

    Piero vs Van Eyck

    In fifteenth century Italy, art had its own style, artists from that region and time period were commissioned by the Catholic Church to recreate biblical stories and paint them on the plastered walls of the churches, which were being constructed throughout the Catholic Church’s expanse. These southern artists obsessed over rendering dimensional space, and they used two main techniques to help them accurately recreate scenes from the bible, the first being linear or geometric construction and the other being chiaroscuro, or the use of light and shade, and according to Art Historian Ernst Gombrich, Piero had mastered these techniques. (20) For example, Piero’s mastery is displayed in his piece, The Legend of the True Cross: Constantine’s Dream, where he skillfully paints a flawlessly cylindrical barrel that represents Constantine’s tent and also paints perfectly straight lines that are the soldier’s spear and the pole that holds up the tent. These geometric constructions give the illusion that Constantine recedes into the tent napping in his bed, while his soldiers stand out front of his tent, in actuality it is a one an illusion of a three dimensional space. The quality at which Piero renders geometric shapes is seamless, and shows that he had considerable knowledge of and was greatly passionate about the new scientific findings and laws that were…
