	Italian Renaissance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		From the early 15th century to the middle of the 16th century, the center of innovation in sacred music was in the Low Countries, and a flood of talented composers came to Italy from this region.
		By far the most famous composer of church music in 16th century Italy was Palestrina, the most prominent member of the Roman School, whose style of smooth, emotionally cool polyphony was to become the defining sound of the late 16th century, at least for generations of 19th- and 20th century musicologists.
		Other Italian composers of the late 16th century focused on composing the main secular form of the era, the madrigal: and for almost a hundred years these secular songs for multiple singers were distributed all over Europe.

		They made up the Muranese school, though this school was not strongly marked apart either in characteristics or subjects from the Venetian school, of which it was, in fact, a part.

	Biography
		Painter of the school of Ferrara-Bologna, notable as one of the first Ferrarese artists to adopt a soft, atmospheric style of painting.
		Costa was trained at Ferrara, probably under Cosmè Tura, who was the first important native-born Ferrarese painter.
		In 1506, soon after the expulsion of the ruling Bentivoglio family from Bologna, he was summoned as court painter to Mantua to succeed Andrea Mantegna.

	Paintings
		This painting, datable to around 1480, is characterised by the intentional simplicity of style typical of Foppa, visible in the isolation of the figures in relation to their background.
		This painting from around 1460 is one of the highest achievements of the Venetian master's early career, when his art was still strongly influenced by the style of his brother-in-law Andrea Mantegna.
		This painting by Cosmè Tura, who was the most representative figure of the Fifteenth century pictorial school of Ferrara, was part of the series of decorations for the study of Palazzo Belfiore near Ferrara.

		Up until the XII century, Ferrara was merely an urban agglomeration, without a center or clearly defined features, intersected by a network of canals, bridges and ferries.
		It was in the year 1264 that the magnificent epoch of domination by the Estense family was initiated, during which the Court of Ferrara became one of the most important in all of Europe.
		The presence of canals, bridges and ferries became a memory of the distant past, and were replaced by long, broad, straight streets, intersecting according to a precise geometric plan, but blending perfectly with the meandering streets in the medieval zones, thereby uniting the "old" city with the "new".

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Francesco Cossa
		The first record we have of him is in 1456 when he was an assistant to his father, Cristofano del Cossa, at that time employed in painting the carvings and statues on the high altar in the chapel of the bishop's palace at Ferrara.
		Here he painted his two masterpieces, one, the Virgin and Child with two saints and a portrait of Alberto de'Catanei, produced in 1474; the other, the fresco of the Madonna del Baracano, representing the Virgin and Child with the portraits of Giovanni Bentivoglio and Maria Vinziguerra, painted in 1472.
		He executed some glass paintings in Bologna, the best of which is a beautiful circular window, in the church of San Giovanni in Monte, representing St. John in Patmos; this bears his signature.

		This he does in what he says was a common phrase that "poetry is vocal painting, and painting, silent poetry."[36] The false analogy, "_ut pictura poesis_," establishing, as it does, a sanction in criticism for the static in drama, flourished until Lessing exposed it in his _Laocoon_.
		The same tradition is upheld by Charles Butler, who in his Latin school rhetoric (1600) defines rhetoric as the art of ornate speech and divides it into _elocutio_, a discussion of the tropes and figures, and _pronuntiatio_, the use of voice and gesture.[149] And John Barton is worse.
		Thus in Guarino's school at Ferrara (1429-1460) the _Ad Herennium_ was regarded as the quintessence of pure Ciceronian doctrine of oratory, and was made the starting point and standing authority in teaching rhetoric.

		Italian painter, the first major artist of the School of Ferrara, where he was appointed court painter to the Estes in 1452.
		Tura was mainly a religious painter, his work including two huge shutters (1469) for the organ of Ferrara Cathedral, now in the Museo del Duomo; they represent The Annunciation and St George and the Princess.
		In Ferrara he provided paintings for the cathedral (1458), the Biblioteca del Pico (1465-67), the Sacrati Chapel (1468), and the Belriguardo Chapel (1472).

		The only other paintings of similarly large size are also early works, and there is a marked difference in the high quality of these paintings compared to many of the later works on a smaller format, some of which have the appearance of studio assistance.

	Holy Family with St. John
		The painting was probably produced in the northern Italian region of Emilia, possibly at Ferrara.
		The painting can be included among mannerist works created in the area around Parma and Ferrara in the second half of the 16th century.
		The closest comparison is definitely the Holy Family of the Nicholson collection, where we find the same elongated bodies, the same pink and white of the skin, and a similar stiffness of the figures that is slightly less evident in Boston CollegeÕs Holy Family with St. John.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Innocenzo di Pietro Francucci da Imola
		When but twelve years of age he arrived at the latter city to study painting as a bursar of his native town, which, by an ordinance dated 17 March, 1506, had voted him an annual subsidy of ten baskets of grain.
		On the 7 May I took into my school Nocentio Francuccio of Imola, on the recommendation of Felesini and Gombruti." It is probable that Innocenzo went to Florence and that he studied for some time under the direction of Mariotto Albertinelli.
		Thus did the master's influence radiate quite beyond the limits of his school, and artists like Garofalo and Bagnacavallo were to be seen establishing at a distance from that school — at Ferrara and at Bologna — veritable foci of Raphaelesque imitation.

		The movement, which established a school in Ferrara, was influenced by Surrealism, and had in particular a penchant for the presence of unexpected, out-of-place objects; de Chirico's Metaphysical Interiors show rooms littered with all the fetishes of modern civilization.
		Another representative of this "school", which flourished mainly between the late Sixties and the mid-Seventies, is Mario Merz (b1925), who uses found objects and materials (glass sheets, twigs, metal scraps) to create installations that convey a sense of fragility and danger.
		Although there is nothing truly ground-breaking about the Italian sculpture or painting of the last few years, there are a couple of interesting artists who have been well-received in the international forum.
