"The Printed Triumph in the Renaissance" is my working title. I need to have several ways of answering, "so, what is your dissertation about?" Right now, the two sentance version of my thesis, for colleagues, is: The new technology of the long horizontal multi-block prints become associated with triumphal processional imagery in the early 16th century; this media and subject matter were intertwined and spread across Europe. My study, focusing on the way artists adapted or parodied the multi-block triumph, will illuminate Renaissance attitutes towards antiquity and the exotic.
The main works which will structure my dissertation are:
Titian's Triumph of Christ
Jacopo de'Barbari's Triumph of Men over Satyrs
Erhard Schon's Triumph of Fools
Burgkmair's Exotic Peoples
Pieter Coecke van Aelst's Manners and Customs of the Turk
