Agnolo Gaddi - Madonna and Child with Saints Andrew, Benedict, Bernard, and Catherine of Alexandria with Angels [entire triptych], shortly before 1387

At left is the apostle Andrew, holding the symbol of his crucifixion and the rope that was used in place of nails to hang him on the cross. He was the patron saint of Alberti’s deceased son. Next to him, Benedict, considered the founder of western monasticism, displays the opening words of the rule that governed the Benedictine monks at San Miniato. Benedict was also Benedetto’s patron saint. Opposite stands Bernard of Clairvaux, the powerful French abbot of the Cistercian order. He was the patron of another of Benedetto’s sons. Finally, we find Catherine of Alexandria on the spiked wheel of her torture.

Benedetto-Pisani Trading Post Established in Alexandria

2 January 1502

The Benedetto and Pisani families have established a joint trading post with the Sultanate of the Mamluks in order to investigate the profitability of trading in spice, ivory, and other exotic goods in Africa and Asia. The trading post will be established in Alexandria with access to the Indian Ocean through the Nile river. 

The outlook of this joint venture with the Mamluks seem to be beneficiary for both parties as the two families have utilized their connections for the sake of Venice.

By Maria Alambritis

Today, 2 August, is the anniversary of the death of Bernardo Strozzi (1581/2-1644). Nicknamed ‘il prete Genovese’ (the Genovese priest) for the twelve years he spent as a Capuchin monk, Strozzi was one of the most influential Italian painters of the early seventeenth-century. His influence was especially important on the development of the Genoese and Venetian Baroque schools of painting.

Born in Genoa, he began training as a painter from a young age, but in 1598 after he is said to have experienced a vision, he entered the monastery of St Barnaba in Genoa and became a member of the Capuchin Friars Minor. During this time, he painted small devotional pictures of the Franciscan saints for the monks. Around 1608-9, he left the monastery to fully embark on a career as a painter, in order to support his widowed mother and unmarried sister. His works from this early period, such as the St Catherine of Alexandria (c. 1610) combine the Mannerist elements of elongated figure and broken, bravura brushwork with his individual treatment.

During the 1620s, the arrival into Genoa of numerous Northern and Italian painters exposed Strozzi to a range of influences, which informed his own development. In particular, the works of Caravaggio (1571-1610) and his followers were especially important, as shown in the Calling of St. Matthew (c. 1617), while the Adoration of the Shepherds (c. 1618) contrasts Caravaggesque dramatic lighting with aspects of still-life and a naturalism drawn from Northern European examples.

 After the death of his mother in 1630, Strozzi was expected to return to the monastery. Instead, he requested to be allowed to continue his life as a painter freely. Arousing the suspicion of members of the Church, he was tried in the Archbishop’s Tribunal for illicitly practicing painting and escaped to Venice to avoid scrutiny.

It was in Venice that his art became infused with a vibrant colour palette, drama and exuberance, influenced by his exposure to the Venetian masters, notably Paolo Veronese (1528-1588). He painted numerous portraits of Venetian noblemen, such as Cardinal Federico Cornaro (1633-35), while the Three Musicians (c. 1630) is an example of his genre scenes. Strozzi also executed two major religious commissions for Venetian churches: S. Sebastian Tended by Irene for San Benedetto and St. Lawrence Distributing Alms for San Nicolò da Tolentino (1639-40).

ptolemaea.

Ptolemaea, one of the several regions of Cocytus, the frozen lake in the ninth and lowest circle of Hell and the lake is divided into four concentric rings of traitors corresponding, in order of seriousness, to betrayal of family ties, betrayal of community ties, betrayal of guests and betrayal of lords, in the circle of Treachery, Ptolemaea is where those traitors who have betrayed their guests and those with whom they had special relationships with, linger on in frigid agony, lying supine in the ice while their tears freeze in their eye sockets, sealing them with small visors of crystal with even the comfort of weeping is denied to them, and their whole bodies up to their neck are covered in ice so they are forced to devour other traitors in the realm of Ptolemaea. ptolemaea - ethel cain / @mothercain. / gangsta. - kohske. / divine comedy; inferno - dante aligheri.

Soulmates & Twin Flames !!

Soulmates: Two or more separate souls that come together in a way that feels destined and who complement each other, whether they be friends, family, lovers and partners if applicable, or even pets, individuals can and do have multiple soulmates in a single lifetime with a variety of different connections, all meant to help each individual personally develop and blossom into themselves, each soulmate connection is different, some are meant to only remain in a season of our lifetime while others will remain with us our whole entire lifetimes, and for many, many soulmates have been with you in past lives and when given a chance to reincarnate again, together you all decide to find each other and meet again.

Twin Flames: One soul split in two separate whole bodies, forever one entity and forever two physical beings. In contrast with soulmates, there is only one twin flame, it is always romantic in nature and these connections are exceptionally rare. A twin flame is a mirror and brings up everything one or both individuals involved haven't dealt with when they're together with them and reflects the deepest parts of yourself; they are everything that you are, but in a completely different direction which challenges you to grow and learn specific life lessons, it's whom one feels connected to on the deepest level in all aspects, reincarnating together across many lifetimes reflecting back to us all of our hidden fears and shadows. This relationship has the capacity to be very fast paced and extremely intense. Twin flames come together to achieve bigger things together, and their mission is always related to uplifting humanity.
