Classical Club Hears
Ren. Art Discussion
By Dr. Friedlaender
Dr. Marc Friedlaender, professor
of English, spoke at the first meet-ing
of the Classical Club on Octo-ber
of 20. taking as his topic the
classical Influence on Renaissance
Art. Dr. Friedlaender shew el
slides of great Renaissance paint-ings
and related them to the myths
which Inspired such artists as Ti-tian
and Botticelli.
The Cone collection offers an
interesting comparison to Hen.us-sancc
art In that It Illustrates the
difference between the two in lit-erary
values. Dr. Friedlaender
pointed out. Modern art stresses
color and design more than the
literary aspect while the earlier
paintings told a story which was
usually well-known to the observer.
Dr. Friedlaender continued by say-ing
that the classical imths wnc
second only to the Bible in supply-ing
subject matter for Renaissance
paintings. He also pointed out the
preoccupation of the artists with
the nude and the landscape, but
emphasized that these existed en-tirely
for an expression of the
truth rather than for any moral
interests.
Dr. Friedlaender centered his
lecture around such great works
as Botticelli's, "Birth of Venus"
and Titian's. "The Danae."
