Štirje kontinenti v opusu Franca Jelovška : zaključna seminarska naloga

Majcen, Meta (author), Novak Klemenčič, Renata (mentor)

Franc Jelovšek je s freskami okrasil ljubljansko cerkev sv. Petra in cerkev Matere Božje na Sladki Gori. Na obeh ciklih je upodobil motiv štirih kontinentov, kjer posebno pozornost pritegne izvirna zasnova Evrope, ki jo je Jelovšek naslikal v oklepu. Zaključna seminarska naloga obravnava vpliv Ripove Iconologie na umetnikovi poslikavi in primerja ikonografsko posebnost s sočasnimi upodobitvami v avstrijskem in nemškem prostoru.

• Title: The Four Continents in the Oeuvre of Franc Jelovšek

Abstract

Franc Jelovšek decorated the Church of St. Peter in Ljubljana and the Church of the Virgin Mary at Sladka Gora with extensive fresco cycles. In both, he depicted the motif of the Four Continents, with particular attention drawn to the original conception of Europe, which Jelovšek represented in armor. This thesis examines the impact of Cesare Ripa’s Iconologia on these frescoes and compares Jelovšek’s iconographic innovation with contemporary depictions in the Austrian and German cultural context.
