Humanisme
This study is focussed on the clay decorations of the little temple built around 1550 in the gardens of the castle of La Bâtie d’Urfé (Forez). Only five of the eight original masks are still extant: a female one (Lyon, Museum of Fine Arts, storages); three male masks and another female one at La Bât...

Des huit têtes de l’ensemble d’origine, seules cinq subsistent de nos jours: un mascaron féminin (Lyon, musée des Beaux-Arts); trois têtes masculines et une tête féminine encore conservées à la Bâtie. Malgré leur état souvent endommagé ou fragmentaire, le style et l’iconographie des mascarons se lisent encore. Pour la première fois depuis le démantèlement de la Bâtie (1874), on en réunit ici les images; on en confirme aussi l’attribution à un atelier de modeleurs italiens, aussi que leur interprétation, en tant qu’hommage aux mystères éleusiniens. Gentilhomme lyonnais au service des Valois envoyé en Italie pendant le Concile de Trente, Claude d’Urfé (1501-1558) développera un goût prononcé pour le syncrétisme lorsqu’il entreprend les aménagements Renaissants de la demeure médiévale de ses ancêtres. Les têtes du tempietto sont l’un des témoignages de ce syncrétisme: l’ambassadeur était friand de la culture et de l’art classique en dépit de sa foi chrétienne sincère.Cairn restricted access |
