La studiosa aveva messo a fuoco la peculiarit\u00e0 di questa\u00a0Bilderbibel,<\/em>\u00a0basata sulle fonti grafiche usate da K\u00fcsel per ambientare le 241 scene del Vecchio e del Nuovo Testamento, tramite una curiosa opera di interpolazione e di \u2018plagio creativo\u2019. Tuttavia, soprattutto le prospettive architettoniche inserite da K\u00fcsel nelle sue tavole, meritano ulteriori approfondimenti, per riconoscerne le fonti. A distanza di oltre un secolo il presente studio si propone di integrare l\u2019esame delle stampe tratte da quelle di importanti incisori come Maarten van Heemskerck, Wenceslaus Hollar, e Jean Le Pautre. L\u2019intento \u00e8 quello di spiegare le dinamiche produttive di questa tipologia di pubblicazione, il cui successo coincideva con la fondazione delle prime accademie d\u2019arte in Germania, spesso rivolte a un pubblico di collezionisti e conoscitori, coinvolgendoli in un gioco di pi\u00f9 o meno scoperte citazioni dalle fonti pi\u00f9 note. Ma la ricerca si allarga all\u2019esame dei criteri di manipolazione delle immagini d\u2019architettura nell\u2019Europa del Seicento, come venne elaborata da una delle pi\u00f9 recettive e importanti botteghe editoriali dell\u2019epoca.<\/div>\n

Dissemination, plagiarism and architectural prints in Seventeenth\u2013century Europe. The case of Melchior K\u00fcsel\u2019s Bible<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
In 1908 Erika Tietze\u2013Conrat wrote an article on the\u00a0Icones Biblic\u00e6 Veteris et Novi Testamenti<\/em>, an illustrated Bible published in Augsburg in 1680 by Melchior K\u00fcsel. The scholar had fully understood that the peculiarity of this\u00a0Bilderbibel<\/em> lied not only in the 241 plates that K\u00fcsel had added as a setting and background for the many stories taken from the Old and New Testaments, but also in the selection of iconographic sources. Almost all the prints were not the result of K\u00fcsel\u2019s inventions; he had created new versions from famous originals of diverse origins, which had come into his possession or were reproduced during his intense activity as a printmaker and print publisher in Germany, Austria and Italy. Tietze\u2013Conrat had discovered K\u00fcsel\u2019s curious work of \u201cinterpolation\u201d and had drawn up a list of 110 \u201cinspired\u201d Bible plates by matching them with the originals that had inspired them. However, her research was limited to identifying the most famous paintings, already reproduced and in circulation in seventeenth century Europe through so\u2013called \u201creproductive printmaking\u201d. The architectural perspectives that K\u00fcsel had also included in his repertoire had therefore been left out of Tietze\u2013Conrat\u2019s praiseworthy research work. More than a century on, the present article adds the pairs related to architecture, including authors such as Galeazzo Alghisi, Maarten van Heemskerck, Wenceslaus Hollar, and Jean Le Pautre. The aim is to find an explanation for this publication \u2014 which came at the time of the founding of the first German art academies \u2014 which does not renounce invention and indirectly bears witness to a desire to fascinate less educated readers as well as to capture an audience of collectors, to offer experts a sort of game of more or less covert references and quotations. This study also intends to explore the matter of the diffusion and the criteria for manipulating images of architecture in seventeenth century Europe, starting from the cases identified in this unique Bible by one of the most receptive and ambitious print workshops of the time.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
