| Popis | The mural decorations in the apsidal arch of a small church Santa Maria in Pallara (todays: San Sebastiano al Palatino) is the most emblematic example of the medieval art in the 10th century Rome. These paintings are the best conserved of the period that has been for a long time considered as the "dark age", paradoxically have been studied only scarcely. In addition to the paintings in the apse, the decorations of the triumphal arch and the aisles of the church itself are preserved in watercolour drawings. In 1630, before the church was restored by order of Pope Urban VIII, Cardinal Francesco Barberini asked Antonio Eclissi to copy all the frescoes into watercolour drawings. These can be seen today in Cod. Vat. lat. 9071 accompanied by descriptions by Gaetano Marini. So far no in-depth analysis has been devoted to the relationship between the preserved and lost decorations of the apsidal arch and, above all, to the relationship with its lay patrons. For this reason, the first part of my paper will focus on the lost decorations of the apsidal arch, while the second part will concentrate on the patrons of the apsidal arch. |
