John V of Portugal became king in 1707 in a pivotal moment for the European balance of power. The Kingdom of Portugal was still demanding the same privileges as its powerful neighbours and the relation with Rome was considered a vehicle to obtain them. Arts and music had a special and unprecedented place in the king’s plans and this book approaches that dynamic from several interdisciplinary perspectives.
The unifying thread across this book’s chapters remains the omnipresence of Rome as a paradigm on several levels: political, religious, intellectual, artistic, and musical. Rather than providing an exhaustive analysis of the period as a whole, this study offers a fresh approach for English readers to this classic, but little known, topic in Portuguese national historiography.

Entre ventos revolucionários e reafirmação do poder monárquico, o imponente painel do altar-mor sintetiza as políticas do governo de D. Maria I através de um retrato coletivo de excelente qualidade pictórica.
A família real, retratada no seu conjunto com os principais membros do governo mariano, torna-se espelho de fé, bom governo e virtude para os assistidos da nova fundação da Real Casa Pia. Neste grupo de órfãos e mulheres, a arte do retratista Giuseppe Trono (Turim 1739 - Lisboa 1810) carrega-se de força plástica restituindo visualmente a justificação e a finalidade das políticas marianas: a exaltação do culto do Sagrado Coração de Jesus, instituído em 1778 pelo papa Pio VI no reino de Portugal e nos seus vastos domínios ultramarinos.
O livro revela, também, a estreita correlação compositiva e iconográfica entre a pintura da capela da Bemposta e a do altar-mor da basílica da Estrela, pintada em Roma por Pompeo Batoni (Lucca 1708 - Roma 1787).

The work of both painters plays a considerable role in understanding the Portuguese artistic context and its implementation, pursued by the queen Mary I.

It focuses on the artistic and cultural context of the first half of the reign of King John V (1707 – around 1728) and on the impact of the projects of the Italian architect Filippo Juvarra for the new city of Lisbon (1719). The building of the Biblioteca Joanina integrated the renovation plan in all the fields of knowledge promoted by King John V, Queen Maria Ana of Austria and the Portuguese court. Thus, this paper offers a new interpretation of the iconographic program, based on a military metaphor. The Library is like a fortress of the Sapience to be conquered by the student-soldier. Inside, the space of knowledge is divided into three progressive stages: the library (Imago Bibliotecae), the academic stage (Universitas), and the encyclopedic knowledge (Enciclopedia); however the true and final goal of the conquest isto achieve the wisdom of the Sapient Christian (Sabio Christão) as described by Father Rafael Bluteau in his Prosas Académicas… (1717-1728). At the end of his journey, with his weapons put down at the feet of the monarch, the student-conqueror reflects himself in the portrait of King John V, the Wise Christian King. Moreover, the paper highlights the following topics: 1) the artistic connections with the Italian and Austrian architecture; 2) the close relationship between the ceiling paintings by António Simões Ribeiro and the Bolognese painting tradition of “quadratura”; 3) the lack of books supplies after the completion of the Coimbra University Library and during the second half of the reign of King John V; 4) the (re)interpretation of the ceiling paintings by António Augusto Gonçalves in the 19th century; 5) the restoration works promoted by the Portuguese State between 1931 and 1934, and the involvement of the painter Joaquim Lopes, Professor of Arts in Porto.

Maria Ana of Austria (1708-1754), this essay focuses on the artistic and architectural policies of King D. João V (1707-1750) and of King D. José I until the Lisbon’s earthquake (1755). Thanks to new sources and drawings, the article aims to rethink the critical dichotomies between the Johannine and Josephine reigns, also highlighting the centrality of the cultural action of the Queen D. Maria Ana of Austria. To demonstrate it six crucial issues are focused: 1) The precocious introduction of Italian music, dance and theatre, thanks to the cultural model of the imperial court of Vienna; 2) The strong impact of the Filippo Juvarra’s projects for Lisbon and its connection with the design of a territorial system of royal residences; 3) The change of D. João V’s architectural policy coinciding with the (re)start of the royal construction site in Mafra (1728-1729), and the persistence of the court sociability with theatrical and operatic representations promoted by the Queen in the royal palace of Ribeira until 1742; 4) The continuity between the previous cultural action of the Queen Mother and the artistic-theatrical policy implemented by
D. José I between 1750 and 1755; 5) The analysis of three new drawings for the integral reconstruction of the Real Opera designed by Giovan Carlo Sicinio Bibiena and two unpublished descriptions of the royal theater
of Salvaterra de Magos; 6) The urban, functional and symbolic reconversion of the access to the Royal Opera in the area of the royal palace of Ribeira in Lisbon.

As Queen of Portugal from 1708, through the letters written by the imperial representative Giuseppe Zignoni, it is possible to reconstruct the process of confluence between
two different musical traditions (the Portuguese, based on Spanish tradition, and the Austrian, based on Italian music and opera), and the renovation of Portuguese court culture and society. From the time of the arrival of the Austrian Archduchess, court life, music and dance were extensively renewed at the royal palace of the Ribeira in Lisbon. The Queen’s court, composed of Portuguese and German-Austrian Ladies, was the hub of the transformation from Spanish theatre to Italian opera. The article proposes a new chronology of the performance of music, opera and dance during the first half of the eighteenth century in Portugal, and it rethinks socio-cultural dynamics in the light of the artistic taste and policy of the queen.

letters written by Giuseppe Zignoni, Austrian royal envoy to
the court of Lisbon from 1704 to 1724, the year of his death.
The relationship between the two courts were intense during
the first half of the eighteenth century, thanks to the marriage
between the King of Portugal, John V (1689-1750) and the
Austrian archduchess Maria Anna of Hapsburg (1683-1754).
In Zignoni’s correspondence, written in Italian, there is much
news on the stay of Filippo Juvarra in Lisbon (January-July 1719)
and on the projects he drew up for King John V.
As a result, an unknown picture emerges which allows us to
further study facts referred to in other sources (mainly the
letters of the apostolic nuncio published by Aurora Scotti in
1973), but also to enhance new opinions and evaluations
of Juvarra’s stay. The Sicilian architect planned the western
part of the city of Lisbon. Indeed, he not only concerned himself
with the Patriarchal Basilica and Royal Palace but also with
the customs, the Royal Pleasure-ground Residence outside the
city, and with the reformulation of the Mafra project. These
unpublished documents confirm the far-reaching intervention
of Juvarra, also providing useful information on the
organization of the yards and the need to call workers from
Lombardy. The unpublished material is contextualized in the
process of the artistic-cultural opening that characterized
the first half of the reign of John V, while in the appendix the
compilation of the documents related to the activity of Filippo
Juvarra in Portugal is provided.

Trono subjects also included the Portuguese art-loving élite, where he became fashionable and found commissions of portrait paintings and miniatures. The main altarpiece of the chapel at Bemposta royal palace, displaying an impressive ensemble of portraits of the royal family and the folk of Lisbon, is an extraordinary and unique case in the Portuguese eighteenth century art, which complex iconography shows the politics of the queen Maria I, leaded by the devotion to the Holy Heart of Jesus.

L’articolo completa lo studio precedente, presentato nel n. 887 di Arte Cristiana, stabilendo l’anno 1588 come terminus ante quem della pittura del soffitto. L’ideazione e la realizzazione dell’opera seguì una tempistica stringente, che unì l’interesse per la novità della pittura di architetture in prospettiva da parte dei committenti (1586), alla progettazione di tre disegni e alla scelta di quello di quadratura (1587) e alla sua immediata esecuzione (1588), motivata anche dall’urgenza di smontare l’imponente impalcatura innalzata sin dal 1573. La predilezione per la quadratura da parte dei committenti non precluse la possibilità di elaborare programma iconografico, dotto e articolato, incentrato su temi eucaristici. L’Esaltazione della Santa Croce e degli strumenti del martirio, dipinta al centro del soffitto, costituisce il cuore significante della composizione e stabilisce una profonda connessione con le raffigurazioni delle architetture effimere innalzate per la solenne donazione delle reliquie del 25 gennaio 1588. Il preposito Pedro da Fonseca S.I., filosofo e teologo di grande levatura, può essere indicato come l’ideatore dell’intera operazione e come l’autore dell’edificio simbolico-iconografico che la sperimentazione della quadratura seppe ‘elevare’ sul soffitto di San Rocco.

L’articolo propone una nuova datazione dell’opera, circostanziandola agli anni 1586 e 1588. Ciò permette di contestualizzarla nell’ambito delle strategie di affermazione del potere di Filippo II di Spagna, divenuto re di Portogallo nel 1580 con il nome di Filippo I. In questa occasione i gesuiti lusitani giocarono un ruolo fondamentale insieme all’aristocratico e diplomatico luso-spagnolo Juan de Borja che, nel 1587, donò alla Casa inaziana il suo prezioso tesoro di reliquie. La pittura del soffitto venne realizzata in sintonia con questo evento dal pittore portoghese Francisco Venegas, co-adiuvato probabilmente da Amaro do Vale. La carica innovativa di quest’opera può essere meglio intesa se messa in relazione con la pubblicazione in Italia del trattato di Vignola-Danti Le due regole della prospettiva pratica (1583), con la presenza nel cantiere dell’architetto di origine bolognese Filippo Terzi come sovrintendente dei lavori di San Rocco e con la predilezione, specificamente portoghese, verso l’architettura costruita o dipinta. L’uso della prospettiva è fulcrale per la riuscita dell’opera e l’incontro tra Terzi e Venegas permise l’elaborazione di una pittura d’avanguardia, unica nel panorama europeo dell’epoca e comparabile solo con le sperimentazioni contemporanee in atto nei territori italiani.

order, venerated the holy Eucharist during the Corpus Domini procession. Traditionally this historical fact was
interpreted as evidence of king John V’s devotion, but it was much more. The new aesthetic organization of
Corpus Domini’s procession represented, through the arts, the power of portuguese monarchy towards the Holy
See and the other european royal crowns and it reflected the dynamic historical context of second and third
decades of Eighteen century. The ephemeral architectures built for occasion have been traditionally attributed to
the German architect João Frederico Ludovice. The essay problematizes this attribution, focusing on the Filippo
Juvarra’s role, the italian architect who has been invited by the portuguese king to project the new royal palace,
patriarchal basilica and palace and he was active in Lisbon between January and July 1719.
Con la intención de profundizar en el prolífico campo de la pintura mural, en 2017 se organizó el Seminario ‘Pintura mural andaluza en la Edad Moderna’ en la Universidad de Jaén, dirigido por José Manuel Almansa Moreno y Nuria Martínez Jiménez, y en la que participaron especialistas de diversas universidades españolas. Durante el mismo se profundizaría en las principales manifestaciones pictóricas de Andalucía en la Edad Moderna, analizando variadas cuestiones como serían los materiales y las técnicas, medidas de conservación, modelos iconográficos, influencias artísticas, etc. Esta publicación recoge los aportes de este Seminario -sumando otros trabajos de otros reconocidos investigadores-, con el fin de poner en valor y salvaguardar este patrimonio histórico, en ocasiones denostado e infravalorado, pero de gran riqueza cultural.

Quando a corte embarcou-se para Rio de Janeiro, o pintor turinês não se juntou à comitiva e tentou regressar a Itália. Alguns dos seus retratos, porém, foram levados para o Brasil.
A comunicação focará sobre duas diferentes vias de transferência. A primeira diz respeito à história política de Portugal e do Brasil nas primeiras décadas do século XIX e ao processo de integração nas atuais coleções do património nacional brasileiro de alguns retratos realizados por Giuseppe Trono pertencentes à antiga coleção real. A segunda via de saída de retratos régios de autoria de Giuseppe Trono está relacionada com a história de Portugal do século XX e tem a ver com à circulação de obras do patrimônio português nos espaços das embaixadas de Portugal no Brasil. Durante os anos Sessenta foram enviados retratos pertencentes ao patrimônio nacional português. Este fenômeno, por um lado, determinou o apagamento da memória coletiva dessas obras; por outro lado, criou implicitamente uma irradiação territorial entre os dois lados do Atlântico que merece ser investigada no âmbito das dinâmicas políticas do século XX.
Recent urban development plans renovated the centre of Lisbon without visibilizing the African presence in the city. The entanglement of this process with Rio de Janeiro, where live stories were collected with Afro-descendants linked to the Walongo Warf, highlight the rapid appropriation of the Warf by the Afro-descendant communities and the complexity of the public and social debate about this multicultural presence in Lisbon.
To further this debate, life stories in Lisbon include the reflections on the colonial past and on changing narratives by Innocenza Mata, professor at University of Lisbon (UL), and Isabel Castro Henriques, retired professor (UL). Kally Meru, guide of the biggest open art exposition in Europe, Quinta do Mocho, elaborates on the impact of art in the decolonization of a social housing quarter. The former president of Djass – Afro-descendent Association, elaborates about the process of conception and implementation of the Memorial of Homage to Enslaved Persons. Rosario Severo, head of educational services at the National Museum of Ethnology relates about the impact of decolonisation of intercultural education in museums.
