Q
A

Annibale Carraci, Loves of the Gods, 1597-07, Fresco in Galleria Farnese in Pallazo Farnese

paints love as an all powerful force that even gods are not immune to. Influenced by michelangelo’s sistine chapel. Spatial awareness that is characteristic to annibale. “Quadri riportati” carried paintings. Seems to project forward into the viewers space. Playful and erotic. Was scourned by Cardinal Farnese and not paid his rightful sum.

Francesco Borromini, San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane 1646

Roman Baroque architecture

church of saint charles at the four fountains. it was his first independent commission. It is an iconic masterpiece of Baroque architecture, built as part of a complex of monastic buildings on the Quirinal Hill for the Spanish Trinitarians, an order dedicated to the freeing of Christian slaves. He received the commission in 1634, under the patronage of Cardinal Francesco Barberini, whose palace was across the road. However, this financial backing did not last and subsequently the building project suffered various financial difficulties.[1] It is one of at least three churches in Rome dedicated to San Carlo, including San Carlo ai Catinari and San Carlo al Corso.

Q

Artemisia Gentileschi, Judith Beheading Holofernes, 1611-12, Museo e gallerie nazionali di Capodimonte, Naples

Father was an artist as well

Caravaggio techniques high baroque, clear details copied in hers but she intensifies the emotion and the action. No space between the two figures in hers, they are literally on top of him, and maidservant helps hold him down and in caras she is observing. More of a struggle, he is physically resisting her. Judith’s arms look muscular and her muscles are distended, showing her effort.

Double meaning, to milk in Dutch also means to seduce. Absence of male figure allows viewer to adopt the role of the male gaze. We are complicit in her objectification.
