RESEARCH EXERCISE IN RENAISSANCE ART
For this research exercise assignment, the work and artist I chose was Madonna of the Orange Tree by Cima da Conegliano.
All appropriate attachments for the sections are located before the bibliography in order of how they have been referenced in the following text.
1. Catalogue Raisonné
a. I went to the UTM Library in order to view and scan the catalogue raisonné for the artist Cima da Conegliano, which I found in the course reserves for this course, FAH274. I used the index of the book in order to find the catalogue entry for my assigned work.
b. In the catalogue entry, the author mentions a few paintings that Cima da Conegliano made which are closely related to Madonna of the Orange Tree. Of these, Rest on the Flight into Egypt, with Sts. John the Baptist and Lucy …show more content…
I searched for “Cima da Conegliano” and scanned the list of books for any that could be a catalogue. I found, Cima da Conegliano : catalogo della Mostra : Palazzo dei Trecento, Treviso, 26 agosto-11 novembre 1962, curated by Luigi Menegazzi, which appeared to be an Italian catalogue for an exhibition of Cima da Conegliano’s work in a municipal building in Treviso, Italy. Unfortunately, the book did not contain any catalogue entry for the Madonna of the Orange Tree. I realized that was likely because the work is part of a permanent collection in its home museum, which led me to find the museum’s catalogue instead. According to the catalogue raisonné, the painting is located in Venice at the Galleria dell’Accademia . Using the U of T Library database, I searched for “Accademia Galleries” and limited my results to the Arts Library as I know the library holds a great deal of exhibition and museum catalogues. I chose, The Galleries of the Accademia, by Francesco Valcanover, and I found the entry for Madonna of the Orange Trees
