Lazio Roma Rome S. Maria dell'Orto. Hutzel, Max 1960-1990 Post-medieval: Architecture, sculpture, reliefs, painting (frescoes) Object Notes: Despite lively Baroque decoration in the interior, the church conserves an early Renaissance structure of three naves. Building began in 1489 by an unknown architect; was finished in 1566 by Guidetti. Curious inscriptions on church stones with humorous statements such as "Universita dei Vermicellari" (various artisan corporations). German-born photographer and scholar Max Hutzel (1911-1988) photographed in Italy from the early 1960s until his death. The result of this project, referred to by Hutzel as Foto Arte Minore, is thorough documentation of art historical development in Italy up to the 18th century, including objects of the Etruscans and the Romans, as well as early Medieval, Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque monuments. Images are organized by geographic region in Italy, then by province, city, site complex and monument.
