    Ferdinando Ongania’s Unpublished Monograph on Giorgione (1896)
    Anderson, J (Bernardino Branca, 2023-05-15)
    Ferdinando Ongania (1842-1911) was a publisher of exceptional books on Venetian art and architecture, known for his classic bestsellers. But on one occasion he composed a book, known in a single copy. It was the first object bequeathed to the museum at Castelfranco, created in Giorgione’s name. The volume consists of an account of Giorgione’s works, as attributed in 1896, with some surprises. Two watercolours by Zaccariah dal Bò after the lost frescoes on the Fondaco dei Tedeschi on the Merceria façade record images and details that are not adequately discussed in the innumerable accounts of the lost frescoes, that were the most celebrated works by Giorgione. This article discusses their significance. The Merceria façade is here reconstituted for the first time in the relievo of Rem Koolhaas, the montage prepared by Hugh Goad. These newly discovered images of an allegory of Peace and of patrician members of the Compagnia delle Calze suggest that the Fondaco may have been occasionally a venue for theatre.

    'Posthumous Reputations': Edgar Wind's Rejected Review of Ernst Gombrich's Biography of Aby Warburg
    Anderson, J (Bernardino Branca, 2022)
    In the days of anonymous reviewing Edgar Wind evaluated Ernst Gombrich’s biography of Aby Warburg for the Times Literary Supplement in 1971, as ‘Unfinished Business’. The review appeared shortly before Wind’s death when he was suffering from leukaemia. Wind’s authorship was acknowledged in 1983, when his review was republished in The Eloquence of Symbols, a collection of Wind’s writings, edited by Jaynie Anderson. As her husband’s literary executor, Margaret Wind considered publishing an earlier version of the review, rejected by the TLS; then decided not to do so. Given the amount of discussion the review has provoked it seems a matter of duty to print the unpublished version, as it contains more about Wind’s perception of Warburg than the final version. The personal remarks about Gombrich reveal what was not acceptable even in the days of anonymous criticism during the editorship of Alan Pryce-Jones.

    'A gracious invention': Veronese's unfinished painting for the Mocenigo Family
    Anderson, J (Burlington Magazine Publications, 2022-09-01)

    Edgar Wind and Giovanni Bellini’s ‘Feast of the Gods’: An Iconographic ‘Enfant Terrible’
    Anderson, J (Bernardino Branca, 2022-05-25)
    Since its creation, Giovanni Bellini’s late masterpiece The Feast of the Gods, has never been an easy painting to understand. When Edgar Wind published his monograph in 1948, it received an uneven critical reception. Wind’s interpretation of the painting will be re-evaluated in relation to past and present scholarship, with insights from Wind’s papers at the Bodleian Library, Oxford, as well as other archives. Inevitably as an editor of two volumes of his writings it is partly autobiographical.

It examines the writing of Giorgione's pupils and contemporaries to see if the handwriting may be identified: Leonardo, Catena, Sebastiano del Piombo, Titian and others.
