Il volume approfondisce la storia dei rapporti che
occorsero fra mecenati, intermediari e artisti veneziani a Vienna e nei domini
del Sacro Romano Impero tra 1650 e 1750. In tale periodo, non ci fu soluzione
di continuità tra arti performative e figurative. Basandosi sugli studi di
Francis Haskell, si può inoltre affermare che il mecenatismo a Vienna nell’età
barocca facesse parte di una rete cosmopolita in cui gli intermediari furono
protagonisti fondamentali. I venticinque saggi raccolti prendono in esame casi
esemplari di queste relazioni avvenute tanto nei territori della Casa d’Asburgo e nei feudi imperiali, quanto nel resto d’Europa,
anche con artisti non veneziani.
The volume explores the history of the relations between patrons, intermediaries, and Venetian artists in Vienna and in the domains of the Holy Roman Empire between 1650 and 1750. In that period, there was no break between the performing and figurative arts. Based on the studies of Francis Haskell, it can also be said that patronage in Vienna in the Baroque age was part of a cosmopolitan network in which intermediaries were key players. The twenty-five essays are case studies of these relationships that took place both in the territories of the House of Habsburg and in the imperial fiefs, as well as in the rest of Europe, including some non-Venetian artists.
