“One sober tint”: Facsimiles of Illuminated Manuscripts and the Problem of Color

Published

Thomas Frognall Dibdin’s 1817 Bibliographical Decameron was lavishly illustrated with images of medieval manuscripts, including full-page facsimile engravings in, as he put it, “one sober tint, either brown or black.” He was very aware of color, and like many manuscript scholars of the time, often described the colors of his originals in lavish detail that clearly sought to capture the imagination of his readers. When Dibdin was writing, color technologies were limited. By the time Henry Shaw created the engravings for his 1866 Handbook of the Art of Illumination, on the other hand, chromolithographic reproduction was becoming ubiquitous, making Shaw’s decision to use monochrome wood engraving for this book a bold choice. And while Shaw championed the superiority of monochromatic reproduction over the often “dull” and “heavy” attempts to render the glory of medieval illumination with modern color techniques, his work, like Dibdin’s, minutely instructs observers in how they might imagine the color of the originals. Even as both men extol the excellence of their reproductions, their writing is haunted by what cannot be pictured, and this haunted gap is, it turns out, a preoccupation of facsimilists across time and technologies. This talk will explore how facsimilists from the eighteenth to the early twentieth centuries thought and talked about color. Technology, imagination, and cultural expectation come together as producers and consumers of facsimiles wrestle with what a “faithful” facsimile really is.

In questa puntata:
La nuova produzione di Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland al Teatro alla Scala, firmata da Christopher Wheeldon, trasforma il classico di Lewis Carroll in un viaggio psicanalitico e dinamico, unendo rigore neoclassico e spettacolarità contemporanea. L’Étoile Nicoletta Manni interpreta magistralmente la Regina di Cuori tra virtuosismo e grottesco, mentre Agnese Di Clemente offre un’interpretazione fondamentale e fluida nel ruolo eponimo, confermando la Scala come laboratorio vivo dell’avanguardia.

ACBC ha inaugurato il suo Innovation Hub, segnando il passaggio della sostenibilità nella moda da mera strategia di marketing all’industrializzazione ingegneristica con un database di oltre 3.800 materiali testati. L’hub promuove la cross-fertilizzazione tra settori e utilizza l’approccio T2T per garantire la tracciabilità e la misurabilità delle prestazioni ambientali.

1.4M casualties: Russia is ‘losing at historical numbers’

Published

on

By



Now, for the first time in a conflict that is in its fifth year, the stark reality of what the Kremlin still insists on calling a “special military operation” has become impossible for ordinary Russians to comfortably ignore. In the past month, Ukraine’s unprecedented drone campaign has been extraordinary in scale and impact.

On a single night last week, Russia reported intercepting 660 drones across 12 regions — one of the largest Ukrainian attacks since Russia launched its full-scale invasion in 2022.

CNN takes a look at the recent offensive and whether or not it’ll make Russia change course.
