Painting Description
"Fifteen Studies After Works In The Upper And Lower Churches, Sanfrancesco, Assisi" is a notable collection of artistic studies by the British artist and antiquarian William Young Ottley. Created in the early 19th century, this series of studies is a meticulous examination of the frescoes and artworks found in the Basilica of San Francesco d'Assisi, a UNESCO World Heritage site renowned for its significant contributions to the history of art and architecture.
William Young Ottley (1771-1836) was a prominent figure in the art world, known for his expertise in Italian Renaissance art and his role as a collector, curator, and writer. His fascination with the masterpieces of the Italian Renaissance led him to Assisi, where he sought to document and study the works of art that adorned the basilica's walls. The Basilica of San Francesco d'Assisi, dedicated to Saint Francis of Assisi, is divided into the Upper Church and the Lower Church, each housing an array of frescoes by some of the most illustrious artists of the period, including Giotto, Cimabue, and Pietro Lorenzetti.
Ottley's "Fifteen Studies" are particularly significant as they provide a detailed and scholarly insight into the frescoes' composition, style, and iconography. These studies not only reflect Ottley's deep appreciation and understanding of the artworks but also serve as an important historical record, especially considering the subsequent deterioration and restoration efforts that have altered the original frescoes over time.
The collection is valued for its contribution to the study of Italian Renaissance art and its role in preserving the visual and thematic essence of the frescoes. Ottley's work exemplifies the 19th-century scholarly approach to art history and conservation, emphasizing the importance of documentation and study in the preservation of cultural heritage. Through his "Fifteen Studies," Ottley has left an enduring legacy that continues to inform and inspire art historians, scholars, and enthusiasts of Renaissance art.
