The Worksite in the 16th Century: Architecture and Decoration. Fontainebleau<i></i><i></i>

The seminar will examine the case of the decoration at the Château of Fontainebleau, a central episode in 16th-century artistic culture in Europe, within the framework of the international research project I cantieri in Europa nel Cinquecento: architettura e decorazione, now at its second stage after the session on Rome held in 2019. Seventy years after the exhibition Fontainebleau e la Maniera italiana (Naples 1952), it is time to return to the artistic relations between Italy and France from the point of view of this important matter, examining the transmission of techniques, languages, artists, craftsmen, and its consequences in both directions.

The fresco and stucco decoration of the Château de Fontainebleau is the result of the interventions at different times of Italian artists from various generations and geographical and stylistic traditions : Rosso Fiorentino, Primaticcio, Niccolò dell'Abate and their assistants, moving from a technical and stylistic background rooted in Florence, Rome, Mantua and Genoa, created solutions that responded to the new context and in turn gave rise to new developments in France, and then back with autonomous results in Italy itself.

The connection between drawings and frescoes, the innovative contribution of stucco, the relationship between technical and material options and stylistic resolutions can be usefully reconsidered in the perspective of the artistic workshop, on the background of the great topic of relations between national traditions and the circulation they presuppose.
