ABSTRACT

THE CONTRIBUTE OF MUSICAL ICONOGRAPHY IN THE PORTUGUESE, LUSO-FLEMISH AND


FLEMISH PAINTINGS IN PORTUGAL AT SIXTEENTH CENTURY TO THE RECOGNIZING OF
MUSIC TECHNIQUES IN THOSE TIMES: SOURCES AND MODELS USING IN THE ATELIER.

Snia Maria da Silva Duarte

KEYWORDS: musical iconography, portuguese painting, luso-flemish painting,


Flemish paintings, 15

th

century, 16th century, chordophones, aerophones, idiophones,

membranophones, musical notation.

Is yet to be made the study of musical iconography in portugueses retable, luso-flemish


and Flemish in Portugal, between the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance, covering
not only the living works of the National and Municipal Museums spaces par
excellence of gathering, storage, preservation and disclosure of pieces but extending it
to other microspaces such as mercies, sanctuaries, public chapels, oratories, private
chapels/private collections and parochial churches. Abandoned the single largest project
that was announced the 1976 survey, by the Direco-Geral do Patrimnio Cultural, to
the District Boards, Municipalities, Civil Governments, Libraries, Archives and
Museums in the country aimed at raising the entire musical iconography in Portugal in
various art forms, we must now analyze the little that has been done for lack of funds
and consider other solutions to walk toward the construction of a future
multidisciplinary endeavor, focusing, for now, the painting on wood since the most
remote example found, A Virgem com o Menino e Anjos from lvaro Pires de vora
up to the paintings that bring us closer to 1580, as the Assuno of Portalegre. Based on
the survey file and taking, then all efforts with owners and institutions, we were able to
analyze and identify, on the spot, the musical aspects in more than eight dozen tables
(primary sources) supporting a historical-artistic interpretation, as much as we could, on
the use of secondary sources as the original instruments, theoretical works and other art
forms that refer to sources and models used in atelier.

Pintores, luminadores
agora no cume estam,
ourivizes, esculptores,

que quantos passados sam:
Vimos o gram Michael,
Alberto e Raphael;
e em Portugal h taes,
tam grande e naturaes,
que vem quase ao liuel.1
