Images
[edit]- File:Vessel Presented to Henri II, design by Jean Cousin the Elder.jpg
- File:Mantelpiece, Château de Madrid, Paris, drawing by Jacques Androuet du Cerceau.jpg
I've added these two images to Commons, if they are of any use. They're a bit printy, as usual. The first is the design for the gold object (I presume the top bit is a lid). The second is an architectural drawing, because it struck me there's a lack of such in the article. It's not very well drawn (they don't give a date for the drawing, so I've just given du Cerceau's active dates—it looks early du C to me), but Blunt seems to think this chateau was significant. I've put reffed notes on the image descriptions. qp10qp (talk) 19:03, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks - I'm trying to avoid architecture totally; it worked to rather different rhythms outside France, it seems to me, and I don't know enough about it. There are bits scattered around in other articles - eg Henry II style, which could do with a rename imo. Johnbod (talk) 20:36, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
- And a rewrite! Second sentence in, and this: " Francis I and his queen, Catherine de' Medici" ... Oh, my. I rush off to change it. qp10qp (talk) 01:28, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
- Done, phew! What an odd article. I've always felt that Henry's style, in his relatively short reign, was a continuation of his father's, and that the real changes come in the later sixteenth century, when Fontainebleau is over and the French Renaissance becomes very strange. I mean, is there a stranger artist than Caron? A more solitary sculptor than Pilon? For me, the sudden rise of the Huguenots and the outbreak of the Wars of Religion is the turning point. qp10qp (talk) 01:39, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
- And then there's Henry IV style - don't look now! There are a whole bunch of these bitty articles around; I've added the most respectable to See also here. It reminds me why I usually prefer topics of a managable size. But I don't do architecture if I can avoid it. - Wetman & Giano are very good, though I don't know they do much this early.
