Italian names

[edit]
  • Shuttleworth, Christine (October 2006), "Italian names" (PDF), The Indexer, vol. 25, no. 2, Australian and New Zealand Society of Indexers, pp. C15–16: "Modern surnames with prefixes (usually prepositions) are indexed under the prefix:"
"During the Middle Ages and Renaissance, surnames as we know them today were not universally used, the person [often] possessing only a given name, along with a phrase to distinguish between persons with the same name. [...] Surnames became increasingly used as they were needed, especially during the Renaissance and in early modern times, and names from this period often show a mixture of forms and usage."
"Before the modern period [...] prepositions such as de, de', degli, dei and de li [sic] were not usually part of the surname, so Lorenzo de' Medici is indexed as Medici, Lorenzo de'."
"Patronymics and names derived from those of associates": index by given name, including for Andrea del Sarto
"Geographic names Derived from the individual's birthplace or home town. Leonardo da Vinci, to use a well-known example, came from the town of Vinci (the word 'da' means 'from'). The artists Caravaggio and Correggio also took their names from their home towns, and the name of Perugino is derived from Perugia."

Historical Italian names containing a particle in lowercase (da, della, di, etc.) are most often sorted by the given name preceding the particle: {{DEFAULTSORT:Leonardo da Vinci}}. There are exceptions:

For a visual arts manual of style

[edit]
  • Article naming conventions
    • "General rules"
      • Capitalization (and italicization)
        • Artworks. "Generic and non-generic name" distinction in WP:NCMUSIC may be helpful here; they always italicize non-generic names except for those of MINORWORKS. Do not use italics and sentence case together, except perhaps in languages other than English (per MOS:NONENGTITLE).
          • When to use title case and italics. Majority of paintings? Portraits. Many sculptures. Drawings, photographs and prints.
          • When to use title case without italics. Often noun phrases including words such as "Memorial", "Monument", "Tomb". San Damiano Cross.
          • When to use sentence case. Descriptive names which are not titles; these can be identified by their inclusion of generic terms such as "bust", "statue". But perhaps not "altarpiece" or "portrait"?
          • Foreign-language titles: MOS:NONENGTITLE: Capitalization in non-English language titles varies, even over time within the same language. Retain the style of the original for modern works. For historical works, follow the dominant usage in modern, English-language, reliable sources.
        • Series of artworks (including cycles of paintings?)
          The Disasters of War
        • Movements, periods and styles. Archaic (including Archaic smile; also pre-Archaic, etc.) and archaic, Classical and classical, Decorated and decorated, Flamboyant and flamboyant, Geometric and geometric, Impressionist and impressionist, Mannerism and mannerism, Orientalizing and orientalizing, Perpendicular and perpendicular, Realism and realism, Severe and severe, Symbolism and symbolism. -Isms. Broad tendencies (figurative painting, abstraction, classicism, minimalism, conceptualism) contrasted with more narrowly defined movements. Lower case for "school".
        • Exhibitions: title case. No italics for large-scale or recurring exhibitions; italics for others. Individual instances of these exhibitions follow the capitalization and (lack of) italicization of the series. What of First Impressionist Exhibition?
          Large-scale/recurring: Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, Venice Biennale, Documenta.
          Temporary "special exhibitons", monographic, etc.: Hajj: Journey to the Heart of Islam
      • Construction of article titles for artworks
        • Something on the way the titles of artworks have been devised historically?
        • The. Often a redirect with or without an initial "The" is likely to be useful. MOS:AT: "Do not use articles (a, an, or the) as the first word ... unless it is an inseparable part of a name ... or the title of a work." MOS:THETITLE: "A leading A, An, or The is preserved in the title of a work, including when preceded by a possessive or other construction that would eliminate the article in something other than a title ... however, the is sometimes not part of the title itself, e.g.: the Odyssey."
        • Consistency with other artistic treatments of the same subject. Avoid pseudo-precise titles for earlier works.
          • Saints?
        • Avoid the construction "X's Y" – but not in Van Gogh's Chair, Hogarth's Servants
        • By type
          • Portraits (primarily painted ones)
          • Public commemorative sculpture
      • Disambiguation
        • Artists
        • Artworks
          • Usually by artist (short form of the name, usually a surname), then by location (e.g., a city rather than a museum). Usually not by artform, medium, year or museum – but one of this group may be needed if artist and city are not sufficient. Avoid using accession numbers as disambiguation. When artists' names are ambiguous or obscure, is there a need to give full names? What about "(Jones painting)" and suchlike?
  • Lead sections
    • Checklist of things the opening paragraph of an article should mention: artist, date, medium, location, type, subject (where known, in all cases).
    • Measurements in the lead section, or just in the infobox?
    • Should locations be given in the Location field of infoboxes for reproductive works (prints, possibly photographs)? Or should they just be in the captions? e.g. The Spanish Bullfight
    • "held at/in", "conserved at/in", "preserved at/in", "in the collection of", "now at/in", "on display at/in", "currently resides in", "currently housed at", "now hangs in"
  • Image captions
    • Standardised format (template) for captions?

Sforza Monument

[edit]

The mercenary Francesco Sforza had been elected Duke of Milan in 1450 and died in 1466; his son Galeazzo Maria Sforza sought to commemorate him with an equestrian statue. In 1472 two Milanese sculptors, the brothers Mantegazza, were commissioned to produce a memorial, but they seem to have turned the commission down. Galeazzo Maria's brother Ludovico Sforza ("il Moro") took an active interest in the project after he succeeded to the lordship of Milan in 1479. [Pope-Hennessy 207] Two drawings by the Florentine Antonio del Pollaiuolo survive for a scheme which envisaged a rearing horse, something hitherto unprecedented in equestrian statuary. [Pope-Hennessy 208 ?] In 1482 Leonardo da Vinci wrote a letter to Ludovico il Moro, for which a draft survives, in which he outlined his expertise in engineering, architecture, sculpture and painting, and recommended himself for the project of the memorial. There is no further mention of the statue until the summer of 1489, [Pope-Hennessy 210] when the Florentine agent in Milan wrote to Lorenzo de' Medici, asking for some Florentine sculptors either to assist Leonardo or to replace him. Nothing is known to have come from this letter, and in April 1490 Leonardo wrote that "I began the horse afresh". [Pope-Hennessy 211]

By 1493 a clay model of the horse was finished, and was shown in the courtyard of the ducal residence, but owing to the French invasion it was never cast. [Pope-Hennessy 211]

Tate Britain

[edit]

Tate Britain is an art gallery in Millbank, London, housing the United Kingdom's national collection of British art. It was founded as the National Gallery of British Art in 1897 and was financed by the sugar magnate Sir Henry Tate. Known informally at first, and then officially, as the Tate Gallery, it began to collect modern European art alongside British works. The modern collection moved to a new site at Tate Modern in 2000, when the gallery at Millbank received its current name. Tate Britain's collection includes works from J. M. W. Turner's bequest to the nation. These are housed in the Clore Gallery, an extension built in 198X by Sir James Stirling. Since 1984 Tate Britain has hosted the Turner Prize, an often controversial annual exhibition of contemporary art. It is the senior institution in the Tate network of galleries in England, which also includes Tate Modern, Tate Liverpool and Tate St Ives.
