Description An account of the resource This work by Arthur Boyd was acquired by the Art Gallery of South Australia in 1969 with funds from the Morgan Thomas Bequest. It depicts St Francis of Assisi being beaten by his father, who is known to have objected to Francisâ€™ religious inclinations and specifically to have reprimanded him for selling cloth from his shop to fund church repairs. St Francis (Giovanni Francesco do Bernadone) was born in Assisi around 1181. After an adolescence spent learning his fatherâ€™s cloth business and aspiring to be a noble knight, he received his religious calling in his twenties when he was praying at San Damiano and heard Christ telling him to repair the church. Following a dispute with his father after selling cloth to raise money for the task, Francis returned every stitch of clothing his father had ever given him and renounced his patrimony. He turned to a life of poverty and religious work. He founded the Franciscan Order, a religious order devoted to poverty, work and preaching, which was authorised by Pope Innocent III in 1210 and quickly grew in popularity from a few followers to a large network of Franciscan preachers and missionaries (administered by Cardinal Ugolini, later Pope Gregory IX) and an enclosed order for women, The Poor Clares. In 1224 St Francis received the stigmata. He died in 1226, and was pronounced a saint only two years later by Pope Gregory IX.

Description An account of the resource This artwork by Yugoslavian-Australian artist Michael Galovic depicts St Francis of Assisi, the thirteenth-century religious reformer, preaching to birds in his characteristic brown habit. It is an example of the artist’s modern religious artwork in which he seeks to create new versions of traditional icons, often featuring medieval figures such as St Francis or Hildegard of Bingen (see <a href="http://www.michaelgalovic.com/galleryintro.html" target="_self">http://www.michaelgalovic.com/galleryintro.html</a>). St Francis (Giovanni Francesco do Bernadone) was born in Assisi around 1181 to a wealthy cloth merchant. Following a dispute with his father in his twenties, he returned every stitch of clothing his father had ever given him and turned to a life of poverty and religious work, particularly by helping to rebuild churches. He founded the Franciscan Order, a religious order devoted to poverty, work and preaching, which was authorised by Pope Innocent III in 1210 and quickly grew in popularity from a few followers to a large network of Franciscan preachers and missionaries (administered by Cardinal Ugolini, later Pope Gregory IX) and an enclosed order for women, The Poor Clares. In 1224 St Francis received the stigmata. He died in 1226 and only two years later he was pronounced a saint by Pope Gregory IX. Among many well-known stories about St Francis and animals is the scene depicted in this painting, which is described in The Little Flowers of St Francis: So solace-filled he left them, and full well, To penitence disposed, and, parting thence, Betwixt Carmano and Bevagna came. And, ardently as ever journeying on, He raised his eyes and certain trees beheld Fast by the way-side, on whose boughs were perched A multitude of birds innumerable, So that Saint Francis was amazed thereat, And said to his companions: “In the road Ye shall await me here, whole I go preach Unto the birds my sisters”: and he went Within the field, and to the birds ‘gan preach That on the ground were sitting; and at once Those that were on the trees did come to him, And, one and all, stayed motionless until Saint Francis had done preaching, and e’en then Departed not till he had given them His Benediction.

Title A name given to the resource St Peterâ€™s East Window, SCEGGS Great Hall, Darlinghurst, Sydney Subject The topic of the resource Canopy, Christ, Christianity, Darlinghurst, Empire, Ferguson & Urie, geometric patterning, Great Hall, medallion, medieval design, New South Wales, NSW, quarries, SGEGGS, school, school buildings, St Peterâ€™s Church, Stained glass, Sydney, Sydney Girls Grammar School, window Description An account of the resource An image of the East Window in the Great Hall at Sydney Girls Grammar School (SGEGGS) in Darlinghurst, Sydney. The window was originally installed in St Peterâ€™s church in 1867, but the church has since been incorporated into the School Hall. It is the only known Ferguson & Urie window in Sydney. Depictions of Christ and the disciples in lozenge and mandorla medallions stand out amidst a richly patterned geometrical background. This window employs several medieval design and glazing techniques, notably: 12th century lancets, the use of â€˜diaperedâ€™ background quarries, extensive geometric patterning, and painted figures restricted to â€˜mandorlaâ€™ and lozenge-shaped medallions. Note the comparatively larger, central figure of Christ standing under the imitation c. 14th century canopy. While not limited to a medieval primary colour scheme, the overall feeling and tone of this window is decidedly one of an adventurous medievalism. Such a window transmits the essence of the gospel message in visual narrative form, to the effect that the contents of each medallion can quite easily be â€˜readâ€™ by onlookers. The twin themes of Empire and Christianity merge seamlessly within the context of the windowâ€™s Neo-Gothic medievalism.

Title A name given to the resource Virgin of the Offering Subject The topic of the resource Alsace, bronze, Christ, Christianity, Ã‰mile-Antoine Bourdelle (1861-1929), gothic, infant Jesus, Jesus, Madonna, Mary, model, Niederbruck, religious sculpture, Romanesque, sculpture, SA, South Australia, virgin, virgin and child Description An account of the resource This work by French sculptor Émile-Antoine Bourdelle was gifted to the Art Gallery of South Australia by William Bowmore AO OBE, through the Art Gallery of South Australia Foundation in 1994. It is a 2.5m tall bronze sculpture of the Virgin Mary holding the infant Jesus aloft. Along with similar sculptures held by the National Museum of Western Art in Tokyo and the National Galleries of Scotland (titled La Vierge d’Alsace), this work appears to be a model for Bourdelle’s much larger 6m tall stone carving of the subject, which was completed in 1922 and is situated on a hill in Niederbruck, Alsace, France. Bourdelle studied sculpture at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris after training as a wood-carver with his father, and entered Rodin’s studio as a practitioner in 1893. He incorporated both subjects and techniques from Ancient Greek and medieval sculpture into his work. In ‘Virgin and the Offering’, his admiration of gothic and medieval religious art is evident in his choice of subject, while his use of simplified forms is reminiscent of earlier Romanesque sculpture. On the Gothic and Romanesque influences of Bourdelle’s work, see the catalogue description of NG Scotland’s La Vierge d’Alsace at: <a href="http://www.nationalgalleries.org/object/GMA%202" target="_blank">http://www.nationalgalleries.org/object/GMA 2</a>.
