	Benvenuto Cellini : Benevenuto Cellini (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Benvenuto Cellini (1500-1562) was an Italian goldsmith[?], painter, sculptor, soldier and musician of the Renaissance.
		During the war with Siena, Cellini was appointed to strengthen the defences of his native city, and, though rather shabbily treated by his ducal patrons, he continued to gain the admiration of his fellow-citizens by the magnificent works which he produced.
		Cellini, while employed at the papal mint at Rome during the papacy of Clement VII and later of Paul III, executed the dies of several coins and medals, some of which still survive at this now defunct mint.

	Benvenuto Cellini - Definition, explanation
		Benvenuto Cellini (November 1, 1500 – February 13, 1571) was an Italian goldsmith, painter, sculptor, soldier and musician of the Renaissance.
		In the attack upon Rome by the constable de Bourbon, which occurred immediately after, the bravery and address of Cellini proved of signal service to the pontiff; if we may believe his own accounts, his was the very hand which shot the Bourbon dead, and he afterwards killed Philibert, prince of Orange.
		Cellini is portrayed as a passionate and troubled man, plagued by the inconsistencies of life under the "patronage" of a false and somewhat cynical court.

		Cellini foi um artista notável, mas seu nome decerto estaria relegado a discreto segundo plano não fossem as Memórias, que começou a escrever doze anos antes da morte e onde, em linguagem até certo ponto grosseira, narra, com jactância sem igual, os diversos lances de sua existência.
		Benevenuto e seu irmão foram banidos e proibidos de viver a dez milhas de Florença durante seis meses.
		Cellini voltou para o salão e sentou-se á mesa, continuando a beber com aparente calma; mas todos os convidados notaram que ele tinha a mão direita salpicada de sangue até o pulso.

		Benvenuto Cellini is an incomparable source on the nature of art-making in sixteenth century Italy.
		Collectively, these works show Cellini to be an authority on the reigning ideas about the virtues and properties of artists’ materials, and a vivid witness to the poetically charged processes of transforming these materials into meaningful forms.
		Examining how Cellini and those around him viewed the act of sculpture in the late Renaissance, he situates Cellini’s views in the context of the history of art, science, poetics, and ethics.

	Tor di Nona - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Tor di Nona— now a small area in Rome's Rione V called "Ponte", which lies in the heart of the city's historic center, between the via dei Coronari and the Tiber— commemorates an unregretted mediaeval tower which stood there.
		As the Torre dell'Annona it was a medieval stronghold of the Orsini; from the early 1400s, the tower acted as a pontifical prison: Benevenuto Cellini experienced the ill-famed dungeon's terrible lightless cells, one of which was known as "the pit", and Giordano Bruno was imprisoned here before being burned alive in Campo de' Fiori.
		When the New Prison ("Le Carceri nuove") was built in via Giulia, Tor di Nona was rebuilt in 1667 as a theatre patronized by Queen Christina of Sweden and the best Roman company.

		After the priest left, Cellini boasted to the entire bottega that they'd agreed on a time and place to meet to conjure up spirits for Cellini to question.
		The priest required Cellini to bring certain materials for the ceremony: semiprecious stones, costly perfumes, fetid-smelling drugs and herbs and some means for making a fire.
		"Cellini means to conjure with that man again?" Cosimo asked, fiddling aimlessly with one of his obscure, enigmatic tools -- a device made of four flat sticks of wood fastened together with screws to form the flexible outline of a square.

		Myth # 1 (part 1) posits an unexamined -- indeed, unstated -- premise: before the mid-19th Century people just LOVED to work, and took great pride in their work; and proceeds w/ the unsubstantiated assertion that as of the 1920s at the latest they no longer did.
		Perhaps Benevenuto Cellini, Caravaggio, and other artisans at that level loved to work and took pride in their splendid accomplishments.

		The part taken by modern trumpet or cornet was normally played by the cornetto or the violin.
		The cornetto, played by sculptor Benevenuto Cellini amongst others, was a brass-woodwind hybrid and the most highly valued treble instrument of the 16th century.
		Its position was eventually taken over by the violin, not the trumpet as one might suppose.
