In the lecture at the symposium Venetian heritage on the shores of the Adriatic sea (Izola, October 10th) new documents on the painters' family Gionima were presented. Recent research throws new light on other members of the family besides Antonio (Francesco, Simone and Johann), who during the 2nd half of the 17th and in the beg. of 18th cent. were active in Venice, Padua, Bologna and on the territory of Slovenia, Austria and Czech Republic. Simone Gionima is of special interest, as he also painted in Ljubljana for J. Schellenburg and made several paintings for the Ursuline church.
B.03 Paper at an international scientific conference
COBISS.SI-ID: 30575917The lecture at the symposium Architectural history (Ljubljana, Nov. 29th) illuminated the system of public commissions for sacred buildings from the 16th to the 18th cent. in Venice, where the key positions in the offices were held by the nobility. From the noble ranks also the patrons and protectors of sacred artistic commisssions and buildings emerged, as this was the only way for them to publicly represent their social position and prestige. These issues are of crucial importance also for the understanding of circumstances inside the noble patronship in the Slovene littoral cities.
