Text in English & Italian. The present volume contains the Acta of the International Conference on the Patronage of the Este Family, Copenhagen 1987. The special situation in the Duchy of Ferrara offers an element of dynastic continuity in the various phases of Humanistic and Renaissance culture which makes it nearly unique in European history. The approaches chosen by the contributors in various disciplines -- music, theatre, pictorial arts, literature, history of ideas -- make it possible to analyse the interaction between the cultural policy of the "Signori" and the intellectuals of their court, covering the historical period from 1441 to the passing of the Duchy of Ferrara into the hands of the Papal State in 1598.

"Alfonso I d'Este ruled Ferrara from 1505 to 1534. Thanks to his passionate patronage, and despite frequent wars and chronical economic difficulties, arts and music gained unprecedented peaks. A stunning proliferation of musical images - whether sacred or profane - characterizes Alfonso's ducal reign, reflecting the central role by music in his personal life and in that of the entire city. In fact, musical elements are disseminated in works commissioned not only by the Duke himself, but also by other members of his family, prominent figures of the nobility, and the highest-ranking religious orders, all involved in a fruitful 'dialogue' with the Castle in the name of a shared love for music. Most of this works are here examined in terms of musical iconography for the first time. The corpus offers a broad overview of iconographic themes, imbued of humanistic culture. Music is present at different levels and in various forms conveying laudatory, moral, identity and allegorical meanings, often blended into complex semantic layers with multiple possible readings. A special attention is dedicated to the mythological iconographic program of the Duke's lost studiolo (the Camerino delle Pitture), of which is also presented a new interactive and sonorized virtual reconstruction. Finally, this book includes the very first musical-iconographical complete catalogue about Ferrara under Alfonso I."--

By 1485 the Modenese sculptor Guido Mazzoni (c. 14500́31518) had completed a terracotta Lamentation tableau for the church of Santa Maria della Rosa in Ferrara. The eight over-life-sized, polychromed figures include portraits of the duke and duchess of Ferrara, Ercole I d'Este (14310́31505) and Eleonora d'Aragona (14500́31493). While the afterlife of the Ferrara Lamentation is well-documented, its precise origins are not. No contract for the group survives, and it is mentioned only briefly in surviving correspondence from the Estense court. In this thesis, I suggest that the patron was Duchess Eleonora d'Aragona; recognizing this marks the group as the first independent, large-scale, terracotta Lamentation commissioned by a woman. To support my thesis, I survey Eleonora's religious influences in her birthplace of Naples, particularly the art patronage of her mother, and especially their shared devotion to the Corpus Domini, or body of Christ. A re-examination of archival and material evidence reveals Eleonora's relationship with Mazzoni and his family, including, I argue, Mazzoni's gift of the modello for the Ferrara Lamentation to Eleonora. Finally, I contextualize Eleonora's patronage within the wide-ranging methods elite women used for commissioning, paying for, and influencing production of art. In establishing Eleonora d'Aragona as patron, this thesis recovers a previously unrecognized example of female patronage in the Northern Italian courts. This offers, as well, new understandings of Eleonora's patronage methods and scope; the influence of Mazzoni's diverse patrons on his career trajectory; women's relationship with large-scale terracotta sculpture; and the power of noble women's influences and social networks.

Ercole d'Este (1471–1505) is perhaps best known as the father of Isabella d'Este, marchioness of Mantua, but his court in Ferrara was one of the most glittering in Renaissance Italy. He was an extremely prolific builder and laid out plans which doubled the size of the city. He was also the leader in the revival of classical theatre, an enthusiastic patron of musicians, and a creator of magnificent court spectacles. Very little survives to testify to Ercole's achievements, largely on account of a devastating earthquake in 1570, but considerable archival evidence has been used to re-establish the duke's achievements and the extent to which he was personally involved in his patronage. This evidence runs contrary to many currently held assumptions, and although Herculean Ferrara deals with one court and one ruler it also challenges some of the basic notions about the relationship between artist and patron during the Renaissance.
