FLORENCE IN SEPIA

INDEX PAGE AND

EXHIBITION CATALOGUE
 
 

 CD was created for the third City and Book international conference held in Florence, 3-5 June 2004, with the Gabinetto Vieusseux in the Palazzo Strozzi and in the English Cemetery, Piazzale Donatello. Recalling that the American sculptor Hiram Powers' son, Longworth Powers, was a Florentine photographer, and because I have fallen heir to a portfolio crammed full of Florentine and other sepia photographs from the nineteenth century, I have chosen to digitize these and to exhibit them at the time of the City and the Book III on the English Cemetery. This CD and website first discusses Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Casa Guidi, and the Piazzale Donatello, cataloguing the Swiss-owned 'English' Cemetery's international and ecumenical tombs Then it discusses Mother Agnes Mason, C.H.F., of the Oxford Movement Anglican Community of the Holy Family, whose collection of sepia photographs it catalogues. The essays and e-books are illustrated and keyed to the map of Florence.

 Incoronazione della Madonna e quattro santi (1490 circa)

The Pala of San Marco (commissioned by the Goldsmiths in 1488-90 for their
chapel at San Marco), which came to the Uffizi in 1919, with St John Evangelist,
St Augustine, St Jerome and St Eligius, patron of Goldsmiths (whose eyes
look at us). Botticelli has imitated the Beato Angelico 'Coronation of the Virgin'.
