History of architecture and art in Milan
Aspects of the history of architecture and art in Milan
The architectural and artistic presence in Milan represents one of the attractions of the Lombard capital. Milan has been among the most important Italian centers in the history of architecture, has made important contributions to the development of art history, and has been the cradle of a number of modern art movements.
History
Gothic style
See also: Gothic art in Milan
The Milanese Gothic style was an urban artistic movement at the turn of the second half of the 13th century and the first half of the 15th century that was initially introduced into Milanese territory by Cistercian monks. It was the main artistic style of the vast patronage and self-celebrating agenda of the Viscontis, lords of Milan, whose rule over the city is usually associated with the Milanese Gothic period.
The conventional date of the beginning of the Gothic period in the territory of the lordship of Milan is often given as the Visconti family's rise to power in 1282. Thus, the penetration of the new artistic trends from beyond the Alps came later than in central Italy, where Cistercian Gothic had already produced almost a century earlier the Abbey of Fossanova (1187) and the Abbey of Casamari (1203). This delay in the introduction of the Gothic style in the Milanese area can be explained by the strong and deep-rooted presence of Romanesque architecture, also by virtue of the link between this architecture and the Empire, which was not by chance overcome only with the new political course of the Visconti seigniory.
The date, however, is only indicative since the first example of Gothic appeared in Milan by Cistercian monks in the first half of the 13th century: in 1221 the abbey of Chiaravalle was consecrated by Bishop Enrico Settala. At the same time, however, the Gothic style did not spread noticeably in th

A of art seized by Napoleon from Italian collections that remain in the Musée du Louvre, Paris, is a painting by Jacopo Tintoretto (1518/19-94) usually known as Paradise, but more accurately described as a Coronation of the Virgin (Fig.2). It arrived at the Louvre on 27th July 1798, having been removed on 18th May of the preceding year from Palazzo Bevilacqua, Verona. 1 The work is usually associated with the enormous painting of Paradise in the Sala del Ma ior Consiglio in Palazzo Ducale, Venice, undertaken by Tintoretto between 1588 and 1592 with substantial assistance from his son Domenico (1560-1635), a link made by, among others, Carlo Ridol in his biography of Jacopo (1642). 2 However, a newly identi ed description of the collections in Palazzo Bevilacqua reveals that the Louvre painting arrived in Verona before Tintoretto and his son began working on the Palazzo Ducale Paradise. The Louvre painting was listed in an inventory of the worldly goods, the Inventarium bonorum, of the celebrated collector and patron of the arts Mario Bevilacqua (1536-93; Fig.1), 3 drawn up on 5th August 1593. 4 According to this document, the work-described as 'a large painting of a paradise with a gold frame' ('un paradiso in quadro grande cornisato à oro')-hung in the 'sala della galleria' of Palazzo Bevilacqua, together 1.
