Funerary iconography

Study and explain in detail:

		- lying in state, with corpse & bier represented in marble/bronze;
		- sarcophagi all'antica;
		- Virgin & Child in a mandorla;
		- angels/genii;
		- use of grotteschi;
		- inspiration  of Augustan decoration of the Ara Pacis type, which
		  can trigger a discussion of just what, and how much, was known
		  of the Ara Pacis or similar in 15th century. Go back to the
		  S. Clemente mosaic, which is inspired by something similar;
		- inspiration and development of the classical triumphal arch,
		  as used not just in church apses, but with physical triumph
		  transmuted to spiritual/heavenly triumph;
		- trace the transutation of the pagan apotheosis into Christian
		  tomb sculpture;

There are several compositional devices which are not specifically funerary: we tend to remember them as exclusively thus, until we see them selsewhere in common everyday use, such as:

  • the aedicule: best seen in the sumptuous Borromini reworking of the interior of
  • S Giovanni in Laterano;
  • S Giovanni in Laterano;
  • S Giovanni in Laterano;

  • the putto, such as Borromini's profusion - infestation? - in
  • S Giovanni in Laterano;
  • S Giovanni in Laterano;

  • S Giovanni in Laterano; an infestation which extends to his redoing of several of the tombs:
  • S Giovanni in Laterano;
  • S Giovanni in Laterano;
  • S Giovanni in Laterano;
  • S Giovanni in Laterano;

    and outside the same church:

  • S Giovanni in Laterano;
  • S Giovanni in Laterano;

  • Stars as a representation of Heaven. Borrominin once more:
  • S Giovanni in Laterano;
  • S Ivo alla Sapienza;

    Silk? ===== cf Lucidi 1994: A good general survey, but what I want is something on representations of silk as seen in renaissance painting and tomb sculpture (which I'm sure I've seen at BSR); plus a nice few articles on silk on the tomb monuments of Rome...
