[1] Census of Italian Renaissance Woodcuts

From: Rhoda Eitel-Porter
Date: Jul 4, 2020

Please note the existence of a new resource, which has just gone live: The
online Census of Italian Renaissance Woodcuts. The Census team have traced,
studied and catalogued all single-leaf woodcuts and woodblocks made in
Italy from the earliest known use of this medium to about 1550.

The project is part of the research activities of the Institute of Art
History of the Fondazione Giorgio Cini. It can be consulted from the
Fondazione's website or http://italianrenaissancewoodcuts.com/.

The works belong to museums and public collections, libraries, archives,
art dealers and private collectors, in Italy and worldwide. The Census will
continue to be enriched with new information.

[2] Medievalista Journal nº 28 - New number / New Website

From: Ana Celeste Glória
Date: Jul 4, 2020

It is with great pleasure that we inform you that nº 28 is available. This
issue of Medievalista brings some news.

The most decisive ones were the simplification of the title - Medievalista
on-line became Medievalista -, the adoption of a new management and editing
platform and another renewal of the graphics with which the magazine
presents itself. Without abandoning the legacy of the past, in particular
the openness to researchers from other languages and other
historiographies, the current issue returns to integrate a thematic dossier
on the role of ecclesiastics in the construction of medieval monarchies. It
also has three other articles on different topics, all by authors from
outside the peninsula, in addition to the usual headings, such as news,
reviews and presentations, which have been tried to give, as will be done
in the future, a more comprehensive and systematic character. .

This number has the collaboration of: Alice Borges Gago, André Filipe
Oliveira da Silva, Armando Luís de Carvalho Homem, Arsénio Dacosta,
Francisco Díaz Marcilla, Gilson Damasceno Linhares, Graça Videira Lopes,
Hermínia Vasconcelos Vilar, Isabel Cristina Fernandes, Javier Albarrán
Iruela, José Carlos Quaresma, Leandro Duarte Rust, Margarida Leme, Maria
Helena da Cruz Coelho, Maria João Branco, Mary Magdy Anwar, Néstor Vigil
Montes, Óscar Villaroel González, Paula Pinto Costa, Thierry Pécout,
Tiago Viúla de Faria, Vincent Débiais, and Xavier Costa Badia.

[3] JHNA publishes enhanced Summer'19 issue

From: Alison Kettering
Date: Jul 4, 2020

The Journal of Historians of Netherlandish Art announces the publication of
an enhanced version of the Summer 2019 issue (v.11:2)
(https://jhna.org/articles/rubens-invention-evolution-fall-of-phaeton/),
now with the development of viewing tools that were generously funded by
the Association of Research Institutes in Art History (ARIAH). The issue
features E. Melanie Gifford’s “Rubens’s Invention and Evolution:
Material Evidence in The Fall of Phaeton,” which reveals a newly
discovered campaign of revision that augments our understanding of
Rubens’s working process. The article is particularly innovative in
employing various digital enhancements (developed in coordination with
Jennifer Henel). This new version allows the user to view images in pre-set
zooms, with both IIIF imagery and non-IIIF imagery. It also offers the
ability to view annotations for these images in situ when an image opens in
the multi-modal viewer window. Implementation of the hotspot function
includes in addition a timeline of the painting’s progression through the
three stages: see the article “Exploration and Resources”
https://jhna.org/articles/phaeton-exploration-and-resources/.
