Romary, Mathilde. "Le rôle de la céramique grecque, étrusque et italiote dans les collections des universités françaises de 1876 à 1940." Thesis, Université de Lorraine, 2021. https://docnum.univ-lorraine.fr/ulprive/DDOC_T_2021_0348_ROMARY.pdf.
Full textDuring the last years of the 19th century, the first collections of greek, etruscan and italiot ceramics were created in the main french faculties of Humanities in Paris, Bordeaux, Lille, Lyon and Montpellier. Then collections were founded in the Universities of Nancy, Caen and Toulouse ; in 1919, after the Treaty of Versailles, the collection of the Strasbourg University became french. Those collections were created to support the classical archaeology teaching et were associated with plaster casts, books, photographs, glass plates and some others archaeological objects such as terracotas. Those greek, etruscan and italiot ceramics collections showed the strong french political action in favour of science during the Third Republic. Since 1875 the french government reformed the higher education system, gave important subsidies to create learning collections ; at the same period, classical archaeology got an academic status as it accesses the university. Those collections were often exposed next to the plaster casts, in the university buildings built during the 25 last years of the 19th century. The french state was the main contributor of the establishment of those archaeological collections : several ministers, higher education directors and national museums directors, helped by the Louvre museum, organised a lot of depositions in favour of the faculties of Humanities from 1894 to 1923 ; thanks to those antiquities, the professors were able to build an antiquarium to show various specimens of greek, etruscan an italiot ceramics. Those collections were usefull for the archaeological and historical teaching. Moreover they were indicative of the progressive assertion of the ceramological science.This study concerns the history of classical archeology and history of art teaching and their methods ; it also concerns the creation, the roles and the reception of a part of the university collections during the Third Republic

Full textThis study shows the artistic aspect of Francis 1's reign. It presents first the king as a connoisseur (the word collection didn't exist at the renaissance time) and as a mecene. The royal collections are then studied: collections of paintings, sculptures, tapestries, the furniture, the library, the arms' collection, the jewels, the silverware, the small antiquities, the medals, the gems and the natural curiosities. In conclusion we insist on the important role of Francis i in the French renaissance and on what happened to his collections a part of which could be preserved until today

Full textThis research about the hotel du Garde-Meuble de la Couronne from 1774 to 1798, now the French navy headquarters place de la Concorde at Paris, is made up three parts: the directors at the XVIIIe century, decoration and furniture of their apartment and the royal collections. The office of intendant des meubles de la Couronne belonged to the Fontanieu's family since Louis XIV. Pierre Elisabeth (1764-1784), cultured and art lover, knew very well the Parisian artistic sphere. Thierry de Ville d'Avray (1784-179z) was the result of the social ascension of his family with offices. Less cultured than his predecessor, he managed the garde-meuble as an administrator. For the realisation of his apartment, Fontanieu appeal to the royal craftsmen. They realized one of the most beautiful decoration of the beginning of the 1770's. Thierry extended the apartment and choose spectacular furniture. For them, sumptuousness of the apartment reflected the administration's prestige. Collected by Louis XIV by pleasure and for ostentation, the royal collections of objets d'art left Versailles during the XVIIIth century by the lack of interest from Louis XV and Louis XVI. Exhibit at the Garde-Meuble since 1776, the collections showed the monarchy's pomp. The revolution considered them as national patrimony, but they became a reserve of curios. The prestige of the garde-meuble was at the height in the XVIIIth century, but the Revolution did not accept it was a museum: the Garde-Meuble had just to manage the furniture: it became the present French Mobilier national

Full textAnne of Brittany has received much attention from historians and art historians alike, and yet a comprehensive review of her art collections never been done. An examination of the composition of these collections helped to uncover the importance of both her ducal heritage -from her father Francis II-and her royal heritage -from Charles VIII. This examination also helped to better understand the importance of her own commissions and sponsorships. Through these successive endowments, Anne of Brittany amassed an extraordinary collection of art, among the richest in the kingdom. As an essential decor for the royal apartments, textiles hold an important place in these collections, whether it be silk fabric or tapestry. Tableware and religious gold work also represented an serious part of the collections, Furthermore, Anne own personal-taste is better expressed through be r affection for jewelry, Venetian glass and paintings. This study also sought to place these precious objects in their everyday context. Between placement, transport and storage, these pieces were in constant' movement as the backdrop to the itinerant court. The examination of this aspect provides further insight into the relationship between Anne and her collections, She was well aware that art held a prominent role in the affirmation of the Prince. She sought out the most renowned artists and appeared careful about the maintenance of their work. She also expressed her commitment to the duchy of Brittany by regularly storing her artwork in the castle of Nantes. Anne endeavored to exhibit her best pieces, particularly during major events of court life, again proving her dedication to the arts

Full textDealing with public policies, in relation with FRACs (fonds régionaux d'art contemporain). This PhD concerns as well art sociology and art history. The first part analyses how the policy was built and how the decision to apply it was taken. The origins of the FRACs, funded by the state and regional autorities, in order to support contemporary art through exhibitions and purchases, are widely studied. These roots appear to express a compromise between the partisans of a relaunch of art democratization through a larger diffusion, and those of a modernisation of the public intervention in order to better take into account the latest evolutions of contemporary art history. Soon after their foundation. FRACs encountered some profund changements, which the second part of this study describes in details. Many managers of theses institutions chose to follow the professionnal rules of the world art instead of following the initial political goals. This was mainly due to a lack of legitimacy of public intervention in this sensitive field. The third and last part closely examine art purchasing, one of the most specific activities of the FRACs. A "battle" for the definition of art (what is art and what is not) goes with debates about officialization of art and aesthetic criteria through public intervention and massive purchase. Nonetheless, it appears that this intervention remains pluralistic : the works chosen by the FRACs reflect a wide range of "definitions" of art which does not enable to conclude that these institutions contribute to rebuilt academic aesthetic criteria

Full textCreated by a decree on the 21st of December 1886, the first university plaster casts museum opened its doors in the Faculty of Arts in Bordeaux. In less than 20 years, similar museums were created in all the most important French universities, such as Montpellier, Toulouse, Lille, Paris, Lyon, Nancy. Minor collections took place in Aix-en-Provence, Besançon, Caen, Dijon, Grenoble, Poitiers and Rennes. Copies of Greek and Roman antiquity masterpieces, Egyptian and Oriental specimens, medieval and modern works of arts were in the same place, in the heart of higher education institutions. These museums were the symbol of the deep educational reform by the French Third Republic government, of the institutionalization of archeology and History of Arts. The context of great public rebuildings in the late 19th century when many “Palais des Facultés” were created, enabled the blooming of these collections. Greater buildings enabled the settlement of these collections. These were essential for the study of these subjects with scientific rigor, developed by the German system which had similar collections for almost a century. These museums were also the window of the archeological discoveries in Greece and Minor Asia in the 19th century, of new studies about the East, Egypt and Spain Iberian, of interest in Renaissance and modern art, in the recovery of medieval art. This study aims at tracing the building of plaster cast collections and their role in the French universities. It takes place in a particular historical context and deals with several subjects such as History, archeology and heritage

Full textIn order to define the evolution of French artistic earthenware and sandstone during the second half of the XIXth century, we will study initially the aesthetic tendency which shows off through their forms and their decorations then the technical progress which rises of industrial and traditionnal in the field of ceramic. We will see then that decorative or usual works of the manufacturers and craftsman-ceramists in activity between 1850 and 1900, are diffused, not only by the means of the World Fairs and the national exposures, but also via Grands Stores, merchant-editors or deposits and stores opened by the manufacturers themselves. Lastly, why and how are based the Central Union of the Art schools applied to Industry then the Central Union of Decorative Arts and the Museum of Decorative Arts of Paris? What bring these companies to the ceramics of art?

Full textThe rich collections of the younger brother of Louis XIV and his family have been little studied because of their near complete destruction. The study of the silver, jewelry and art objects in precious metal belonging to the Orléans family is further complicated by the disappearance of all household records as well as the documents that were once conserved at the goldsmith's hall from this period (1625-1725). Thanks to the gracious permission of the Orléans family, we have been able to study their private archives and to shed new light on these collections. Among other research, we have transcribed and analyzed fifteen inventories that have allowed us to create a glossary explaining the meaning of terms that have fallen into disuse. Further, we have established a topology, in graph form representing all of the inventoried silverware, over a period of one hundred years, which facilitates comparisons concerning the evolution and ruse of French silver. This research is complemented by documents presented for the first time from English, German and Spanish sources

Full textAs an heir to Grand Condé, the duc of Bourbon (1692-1740) kept expending the architectural works of his forefathers, on the one hand with the Grand and the Petit Château of Chantilly; on the other hand, he gave expansion to the city, thanks to the building of the stables, and the porcelain factory. The fact that Chantilly was the main interest of M. Le Duc, didn’t prevent him from keeping alive the wonderful estates of Laversine, Ecouen and Vanves, or his private hotels in Paris or Versailles. His collections, which had already been noticed at the time of Henri-Jules of Bourbon-Condé, went under a renewal , thanks to the increasing admirations of oriental lacquers, goldsmith’s art, and natural history cabinet aroused. All of these contributed to making the Condé’s collections, one of the richest French collections of the first hals of the eigtheenth century

Full textThroughout the 20th Century, in different domains and institutions, what seems to be a vocabulary around the collective heritage has taken shape. Yet, the concept contains a contradiction, expressed on different ways, among those a «legal ambiguity ». A « semantic inflation » and a « universalisation ». The current definition of the collective heritage is the product, in one hand, of the history of collections and on the other hand, the arrangement of arts and sciences by the public authority. We wish to conduct a multidisciplinary reflexion underlying the common characteristics all along the history of collection. The cultural heritage is, therefore, a political institution with a particular legal status, requiring publicity. Distinction between private and public property becomes therefore blurred, to the point that the public interest may determine the destination and treatment even of private property goods. The « universalisation of the concept » passes through the history of collectionnisme in the long term to the study of the Commission des monuments, active between 1790 and 1794. The works led by this commission were concerned, at the same time, by the history of collectionnisme since the formation of relics collections, going through the formation of the curiosity chambers, and ending up at the object collecting during the voyages of scientific exploration, and of course, at the establishment of the national collections by the public authority

Full textL’Aracine is a non-profit association founded in 1982 by Madeleine Lommel with Michel Nedjar and Claire Teller, to collect, preserve and exhibit a public collection of art brut in France. Conceived in tribute to the research of artist Jean Dubuffet, the collection – which was given to the Modern Art Museum of Villeneuve-d’Ascq in 1999 ― is a rare attempt to establish art brut’s legitimization and legacy. This PhD – story of an association, a collection process and a collection – reconsiders the origin and development of the L’Aracine project and casts a light on the amateurs whose role was to establish this 20th century patrimony
Ouellet, Pierre-Olivier. "Circulation, usages et fonctions des oeuvres d'art par les civils et les militaires en Nouvelle-France." Thesis, Rennes 2, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013REN20059.
Full textAt the beginning of the seventeenth century, in Europe, collecting art objects became a new habit for the patrons and the connoisseurs. The spread of the practice of collecting art in the second half of the seventeenth century, associated to the development of a taste for paintings in France – which are becoming increasingly available on the market – made a growing number of individuals buying art without being great collectors. Coinciding with the beginning of the colonization of the New France, we can ask if this taste for art also spread in Canada. This thesis traces the various works of art kept in homes of New France, along the St. Lawrence Valley. It tries to understand how these pieces of art circulated, how many there was, what was their variety in each domestic interior and what roles they played in the society. Furthermore, we examine therelationship between the individuals and the works of art in New France. We believe that the art object does not fall immediately into a clean ontological class where art is simply art. In addition to legitimate discourses on art, we think we must consider other perspectives for understanding the works of art in the seventeenth and the eighteenth centuries. In fact, the work of art is not considered simply as an aesthetic object in the everyday’s life of the New France. This thesis therefore examine how citizens interpreted art images and how they used the various art objects

Full textThe vision of the collection of Bordeaux seems kaleidoscopic. Even after the completion of the Museum in 1881, the sculptures were often moved. That statuary art will not be rediscovered before the seventies. However, the collection has been constituted by a logical way, throughout the National deposits, the purchases realized thanks to the local artistics societies, the donations and legacies or the municipal contribution Among the artists appear local sculptors. Many artists of Bordeaux have worked in others genres : ornemanist sculpture, religious or funerary art. By their side, we notice famous names : Dalou, Carpeaux, or Rodin. The collections of the Museum contain the models of public monuments, including the development projects of the place des Quinconces. From antique inspiration to decorative art, by the way of genre scenes and sculpture of animals, from neoclacissism to picturesque realism, the whole gathers together the genres and the styles expressed during the 19th century

Full textSince the invention of haute couture at the end of the XIXth century until today, the fashion world has been one of the professional sectors where the collectors are the most numerous. This raises the question of whether there is a specific type of collectionnism among the fashion collectors, and if so, how is it structured and how has it evolved. If this is the first line of research chosen to analyze these relationships, it is certainly not the only one but it cannot be understood without addressing, more widely other forms of collaboration between all the peripheral creative actors in this field. Indeed, collectionism is part of the network of relationships between leading fashion designers, or leaders of luxury goods companies, artists, art dealers, gallery owners, journalists, critics, photographers and clients of both sectors, etc. To do so, we have chosen three examples of collectionism that have in common the fact that they have marked their era, contemporary fashion and the ‘spirit’ of collection: those of Jacques Doucet, the couple Pierre Bergé and Yves Saint Laurent and Bernard Arnault through the brand Louis Vuitton and the Louis Vuitton Foundation. This thesis proposes to analyze and explore collectionism from the point of view of the collector but also, to place these collections at the same time in their respective era, in their filiations, in the history of art and fashion history

Full textThomas Dobrée (1810-1895), heir to a family of Nantes traders, gathered a collection of three thousand two hundred and fifty five prints from XVe to XIXe centuries mainly schools of North, with a predilection for the French school of the XVIIe century and a passion for Dürer and Rembrandt. These engravings in their majority were acquired at the time of the auction sales of the Drouot hotel and abroad of 1850 to 1880, via merchants of reputations : Vignères, Clément and Loizelet. Dobrée was in competition famous amateurs such as Dutuit, Rothschild, Behague, etc. The force of the Nantes funds lies in the great quality of works obtained, in their prestigious sources and the richness of the handwritten sources preserved within the five hundred catalogues of auction sales, some annotated, present in the invaluable library of the Dobrée museum. These new data make it possible to understand the mechanisms of the formation of a collection of engravings during the second half of the XlXe century, by putting forward the practice of an amateur and the tastes which chaired its choices and to confront them with those of its contemporaries

Full textHenri-Pierre Roche's life (1879-1959) is known through François Truffaut’s two feature films adapted from his novels "Jules et Jim" and "Deux anglaises et le continent". He was a better diarist than a prolific novelist. His correspondence with around two hundred personalities from the arts milieu mainly, as well as his diaries (a total of about 7000 pages), tell us about his life as a seducer, collector and patron of the arts. All his personal papers are kept at the Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center at the University of Texas, Austin, USA. He participated very early to the development of cubism (he arranged the meeting of Gertrude Stein with Picasso in 1905, and was Marie Laurencin's lover and mentor since 1906). During the First World War Roche lived in New York where he met Marcel Duchamp who became his best friend and other artists from the New York Dada group. Then, the American collector John Quinn asked Roche to become his personal art advisor to enrich his private collection of modem art (1919-24). In the twenties and thirties Roche sponsored a large number of French artists whose works ranged from abstraction, surrealism to figurative art. Consecutively, he was appointed personal advisor of yeshwant Rao Holkar, maharajah of Indore, whom he helped to purchase Brancusi’s sculptures. Then, during the German occupation of France, Roche moved to Drôme region where a colony of artists and intellectuals refugees had settled (there, in the village of Dieulefit Wols and Etienne-Martin became Roche's friends and proteges. During the ten last years of his life, besides publishing his two autobiographical novels - above quoted - Roche published a large number of exhibition catalogue prefaces. Along with his memories about his artists’ friends and his own private collection of modem art (106 artists’ names)

Full textConcerned about the conservation of their art collections, in the years between 1789 and 1870, Parisian amateurs called upon the services of painting restorers, who, at that time, belonged to a profession considered quite separate from that of art dealer, expert or even painter. While the restorer worked on paintings belonging to private collectors, he also acted as a guide for the latter, broadening their knowledge of Ŕ or even teaching them about Ŕ pictorial techniques. This understanding of the materiality of artworks gradually contributed to collectors being invited into museum committees as advisors, before they acquired a privileged status in museums, from the 1860s onwards, by bequeathing their collections

Thesis, Paris 1, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013PA010733.
Full textPhotography in France, after a long period of silent accumulation in public cultural institutions, became the object of specific collecting in the second half of the twentieth century. This had a bearing on its status. From the late 1930s onwards, curators in the print cabinet of the Bibliothèque Nationale in a process of re-evaluation at last came to consider the photograph as an object for collection. They set out therefore on a daring collection program with a double focus: documentation and artistic quality. With this the BN declared its ambition to become the leading museum of photography in France. Alongside documentary photographs, which remain a priority, conservatorial interest centered on both large groups of 19th century photographs intended to inaugurate a history of photography modeled on art history, and on contemporary creators. This was a pioneering, and durable approach, but insufficient for a recognition of photography as a national art. Some forty years later, in 1976, the secretariat of Cultural Affairs took over questions concerning photography. But the four ministerial branches concerned by photography reacted in an unequal manner. In a photographic environment evolving towards a cultural orientation, national collections were initiated at the Fondation National de la Photographie, Lyon (FNP), in the Musée National de I' Art Contemporain (MNAM), at the Fonds National d'Art Contemporain (FNAC) and at the Musée d'Orsay. At last photography was recognized as an art. During the 1980s, thanks to the combined effect of the City of Paris, 'Month of the photo', and the favorable policy towards contemporary art of Jack Lang's ministry, one of the major artistic events of the late 20th century took place: photography entered the realm of the plastic arts

Full textThe art of portrait drawings was specific to France in the 16th century and is closely associated with the birth itself of independent portraiture. A big collector of portraits, Catherine de' Medici was known to be the heir to a tradition which dated back to King René and to Charles VIII and was practiced by François I. This tradition consisted of small collections of portrait drawings representing relatives and favorites. The collection of Catherine de' Medici was, however, very different to these small collections, not only by its extraordinary scope (many hundreds of sheets), but above all by its composition which excluded all bad copies, keeping only the best works mostly from the workshops of Jean and François Clouet, and by its arrangement which became the standard for collections in the following centuries. This study puts forward a detailed analysis of the collection and included a catalogue raisonné of drawings belonging to it, which are today scattered across many museums

Full textMy academic research work in museology deals with the place of Greco-Roman mythology in the Fine Arts Museums of Hauts-de-France by proposing a critical analysis and raising the question of its possible links with the cultures of imagination. Indeed, while Greco-Latin mythology and its reception by a large public have never been more present than today in various media (literature, cinema, comics, video games) and many works of art are inspired by myths in museums (from Greek vases to contemporary art), the links between these two "worlds" are almost nonexistent, as shown by our analysis in eighteen museums of Hauts-de-France.Despite their undeniable potential, mythological works are often lost in the collections, poorly valued and little known by the general public. How can we make more available works inspired by a long and rich literary and artistic tradition, while cultural practices still often show a sort of elitism in Fine Arts Museums? The objectives of our research are to find solutions, through suitable mediation tools, to make accessible to the broader public the iconographic richness of these episodes of classical antiquity. Is there a common ground for dialogue between Fine Arts and the current cultures of imagination, through the prism of mythology? Through a precise museological analysis and a survey of more than seven hundred answers, we propose an adapted mediation program, while supporting our analysis through the study of experiments at national and international levels. Following the analysis of experiences already undertaken in the region, its purpose is above all to create a link by exploring various solutions with the help of human mediation and Internet: theatre in collections, off- the-walls workshops, virtual exhibitions are some of the answers we bring. Thus, our research is a reflective example of an attempt for a cultural democratization in the museum space on a regional scale
Schloder, John E. "La peinture au château de Richelieu." Paris 4, 1988. http://www.theses.fr/1988PA040056.
Full textThe great castle built by cardinal Richelieu (1585-1642) in Poitou no longer exists; the treasures once housed there have been dispersed. This thesis, based on unpublished documents, traces the history of the painting collection in Richelieu’s castle: its formation at the beginning of the seventeenth century, the decoration of the great rooms in Richelieu’s time, the changes made by the duke in the eighteenth century, the dispersion of the collection during the revolution and the arrival of certain masterpieces in the French national collections (the Louvre, Versailles, the Tours and Orleans museums) and in private collections, both inside and outside France. This dissertation also presents numerous unpublished documents such as the only known plan of the castle's main floor (where the bulk of the collection was housed), a rare visitor's description discovered at the Bodleian library (Oxford), which is dated 1637 and thus describes the collection during the cardinal's lifetime. In all, it is possible to catalog 70 paintings (20 here published for the first time), which in all likelihood adorned the castle in the seventeenth century. Several are by the same artist; in my opinion, Nicolas Prevost, a little-known painter today, but who played an eminent role in the decoration of the castle for nearly ten years. The thesis also lists lost paintings by Raphael, Titian, van Dyck, Rubens, Dürer, among others, and those erroneously attributed to Richelieu’s

Full textThe literary and artistic patronage of Charles the Bald is by far the richest of the carolingian age. The king received works that were either commissioned, or inspired by him. They actually reflect not only his piety, but also his ambition to rule as an enlightened king and to become an Emperor. The works contain the carolingian ideal of continuity with Roman Empire : iconography and themes of the literary sources and the pictures are extremely inspired by the paleochristian age. The artistic and literary patronage reveals the influence of works commisionned by Charlemagne and byzantine emperors too. The study of both texts and images bring to light the influence of John Scotus and Hincmar of Reims on the artistic production of the realm. It allows as well a better understanding of the making of the royal image (whose codes are defined in this period) and the use of the works by Charles the Bald to strengthhen his power, giving of himself the image of an ideal christian king

Full textIn an unexpected manner, and in a short time, Rene de Longueil inherited to the family seigneury of Maisons in 1629 and the heritage of his wife’s family in 1630 which he took advantage by his cleverness. Ever since Rene de Longueil undertook the construction of a new chateau, trusted François Mansart and Jacques Sarrazin’s team, and celebrated as one of the most beautiful residence in France. But he saw the finishing of the project only ten years before his death: Maisons was an endless building site, done one stage at a time. In Paris, he lived at rue de Béthisy, in a town house, inherited from Nicolas Chevalier, his uncle in-law. His wife, Madeleine, dead too early, stays a mysterious person who inspired the decoration of the new chateau. He had one’s heart set on extending the seigneury with the purchase of fief which constituted a huge territory in le Pincerais, surrounding nearly the crown estate of Saint-Germain. Descendant of a noble family, he baught the charges of la Cour des Aides and Président à mortier. During the Fronde, he played an important role as an agent between the Parlment and the Regency. He had the honour of serving the king as captain of his chateau in Versailles and Saint-Germain, before he’s promoted Superintendent of Finances in 1650. He lived in exile in Normandy a few years. Back in favour, he could assent to rank of Marquis in 1658 and welcoming the king and the Court. His places of residence in Maisons and Bethisy contained sumptuous and precious furniture, as well as many works of art. Man with a lot of taste and moving with the times, he took an interest in tapestries work, chinas, and orange trees. The poets celebrated the gardens of Maisons. Excellence became his rule employing the best craftmens and the best servants. Powerful, rich and famous man, he transferred a considerable heritage and his title of Marquis to his descendants
Segreto, Nora. "Collectionner sous le Second Empire : l’exemple du Musée Rétrospectif de 1865." Thesis, Sorbonne université, 2021. http://www.theses.fr/2021SORUL002.
Full textIn 1865, just one year after its foundation, the Union Centrale des Beaux-Arts Appliqués à l’Industrie organized its first exhibition called Musée Rétrospectif. About 250 collectors took part in it with a selection of their art objects. At the times of the first universal exhibitions, during a new phase of industrial, commercial, and social development, the State understood that only arts could offer a guarantee for France to achieve the highest international success. In fact, the declared aim of the collectors involved in the exhibition was suggesting the French industrialists that winning a prize at the universal exhibitions was possible only if they could inspire their products from the art works. However, since the exhibition was public, there were also some other aims: educating the public to arts, proposing an aesthetic paradigm, and channelling the aesthetic choices of the visitors. Actually, most of them were also among the consumers of high-end products, who could later be interested in buying industrial and light manufacture products inspired by the art works they had admired at the art exhibition. The collectors of the Museé Rétrospectif have been not only among the most important social actors of their times, but they could be considered those who interpreted in the best way the pedagogical and educational vocation of the Second French Empire and the 19th century
Jacquot, Kévin. "Numérisation et restitution virtuelle des maquettes de la collection de Louis XIV, le cas des fortifications bastionnées." Thesis, Université de Lorraine, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014LORR0010/document.
Full textThe digitizing of plans-reliefs is a critical issue for the preservation of the one-hundred scale models of the collection but also for valorization of the ancient French strongholds. Hence, we propose a reverse engineering of the plans-reliefs applied on the bastioned fortification. The KASToR approach (Knowledge based Approach: from Scale Model To 3D Replica) is based on an ontology of bastioned fortification which has been created thanks to treatises of military architecture. Then, a library of parametric objects is implemented in Grasshopper, a visual programming tool, in order to segment the surveys for the automatic adjustment of the parametric fortification works. Our proposal allows the geometrical correction and optimization but also the semantic enhacement of raw data, which are the conditions that now must be meet by 3D models for their integration in information systems
Kim, Hangyul. "L'usage des maîtres anciens dans le discours de l'art national en France, 1780-1850." Thesis, Paris 1, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018PA01H054.
Full textThis thesis problematises in historical context the identity of the ‘Old Masters’ in the literature on art and practices of museums in France from the time of the French Revolution until the mid-nineteenth century. Since the end of the Old Regime, the definition of the ‘Old Masters’ was transformed: a transition of principal elements, from the classical Greek artists to the founders of the National School, took place. This transition reflected the anxiety of the newborn French Republic facing an international rivalry in art history and myriad obstacles to its social and political goals. To meet the concerns of competition and emulation, the names as well as the artistic and moral qualities of ‘Masters’ were recognised, with emphasis, as being closely linked to public instruction and national history. The thesis analyses the texts and museum theories of Alexandre Lenoir and Toussaint-Bernard Émeric-David and the discussion of ‘Old Masters’ in the republican journal La Décade. Also analysed in this context are the displays of the Old Masters in the museums, catalogues (with a focus of Landon’s Annales) and works of art during the Revolution and the first half of the nineteenth century recreating the images of the Old Masters as national heroes or fathers of French art. This consciously performed reconstruction of the ‘Old Masters’ during the French Revolution made a crucial contribution to the formation of the cultural identity of France

Full textJean-Baptiste de Lagoy (1764-1829), came from the rich Provence aristocracy. In his family manor at Arles, he devoted himself to the literary pastime of bibliophilia and built up his knowledge. He was forced out of Provence by the Revolution. He took refuge in Paris and organised his cabinet rue Caumartin. He acquired around 2,500 drawings in the space of twenty years. In a private sociable space, he demonstrated his expertise, and implements criteria, based on reflections on art which enabled attributions to be made, by way of comparison, and deciding who could be admitted into this circle. He bought medallions, "fine books", and drawings. Within this inner circle, Lagoy met people who sold him sheets of drawings from all the different schools and visitors who came to buy drawings from him. Clarac, one of Lagoy's close friends and an art critic, set out to establish the social figure of the connoisseur through two visited collections in Paris. His works had to be organised as opposed to the crowding together and confusion of the mere amateur collector. Expressing his taste, in terms of beauty and ugliness, the aesthetic, spontaneous, and subjective experience of pleasure or displeasure, was the way in which Clarac could express his visual experience when visiting the collections. Lagoy, in a handwritten inventory, classified his collection in terms of history and evolution, his taste informing his choices, and he highlighted the notion of "progress of the arts", a concept that was popular with theorists of the period, demonstrating how he was in tune with historical research
Caron, Mathieu. "Le Garde-Meuble et la Cour. Héritages et goût du mobilier d’Ancien Régime du Consulat au Second Empire." Thesis, Sorbonne université, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019SORUL137.
Full textAfter the French Revolution, the collections of the Garde-Meuble were divided into two parts : on one hand, all pieces of royal furniture that were not sold at auction, and on the other hand, many objects confiscated from convicts and émigrés. By ascending the throne, Napoléon Ist used this endowment to furnish the palaces with all necessary ceremonial. This is considered as simply utility reuses of ancient furniture ; the same situation is to notice for the Restauration, although Louis XVIII and Charles X could have seen those collections as a familial heritage. When Louis-Philippe Ier came to power, the value of ancient furniture reuses evolved, due to a new interest in historic heritage. By creating historicist interiors in the palaces and by refurnishing historic appartements, the Garde-Meuble developed an acquisition policy on the art market to enrich its collections. This phenomenon was enhanced during the Second Empire, on the initiative of Empress Eugénie, a period that saw the first retrospective exhibitions, for instance the one hold at the Petit Trianon and dedicated to the Queen Marie-Antoinette in 1867. Last but not least, this study underlines the process of ̏ patrimonialization ̋ that characterized the fate of French royal furniture during the 19th-century, and led to its permanent exhibition in museums

Full textModern art began its rise at the beginning of the twentieth century in both France and Germany. Somme art theorists like Francastel, propose an identifying characteristic of modern art is the deconstruction of the classic plastic space. During the two World Wars, many artists used this deconstructive process, thus reinvigorating art with ‘‘primitive’’ styles which challenged the ‘‘civilized’’ art of the day. This fascination with the ‘‘primitive’’, including art from children, amateurs, and the ‘‘mentally ill’’, is apparent in many art collections of the time. By collecting these forms of art, the collectors were supporting this new ideology in opposition to occidental rationalism. The psychiatrist Hans Prinzhorn, along with the art sellers Wilhelm Udhe and the artists Andre Breton, Jean Dubuffet and Arnulf Rainer, are a few of the notable collectors. They each influenced the progress of Modern Art; the impact of which is now evident in contemporary art. The individuality of their unique collections offers different interpretations of the marginalized ‘‘outsider art’’. By analyzing the terminologies employed by these collectors, particularly in regards to ‘‘pathological art’’, we may outline a portrait of the development of ‘‘outsider art’’ as it progressed along side modern art.
