(syllabus)
Artistic production in the Thirteenth and Fourteenth centuries in Tuscia: from Rome to Avignon.
The course aims to analyze the artistic production in Tuscia starting from when Viterbo was the seat of the Papal Curia (1257-1281) up to the period in which the seat of the Papacy was transferred to Avignon. The main works - which have undergone or are undergoing restoration - will be examined, placing them in the context of pictorial production in Rome, central Italy (Assisi, Orvieto, Siena) and the construction site of the Papal Palace in Avignon, where Matteo Giovannetti da Viterbo worked.
The course will be divided into two parts: the first (38 hours) the teacher will draw the picture, the second (10 hours) will have a seminar character and the student will have to prepare a short report on texts assigned to a specific topic.
The following visits are planned: Viterbo (Santa Maria Nuova, Sant'Andrea a Pianoscarano), Orvieto (Cathedral, San Domenico, Opera del Duomo Museum), Assisi ( San Francesco, inferior church).
