Verlagsinformation :: Publisher's information

Discovery and research of antiquity is one of keythemes of the 15th and 16th century. The antique works of art and architecture are therefore a major source for renaissance artists. Long years ago the CENSUS started to collect the renaissance sources and combine the material with the researchof classical archeology.

The Census of Antique Works of Art and Architecture Known in the Renaissance was founded in1946 at the Warburg Institute in London. It began as an index system, with antique monuments and their renaissance documentation on index cards. In order to facilitate research queries and to make all the information easily accessible it was decided at the beginning of the 1980's, to transfer the project to an electronic database. Up until then the project had focused on antique sculpture, and now antique architecture was to be included. The project was based at the Warburg Institute and the Bibliotheca Hertziana from 1981 and since April 1995 it has been at the Humboldt University Berlin and is affiliated to the Kunstgeschichtliches Seminar as a main focus of research. The international board of the Census consists of the Directors of the Warburg Institute, London, the Bibliotheca Hertziana (Max-Planck-Institut), Rome, the Getty Information Institute and the Getty Center, Los Angeles, and the Warburg-Haus, Hamburg. The Federal Ministry of Education, Science, Research and Technology is a supporting member.
The Census contains the following visual sources: drawings, sketchbooks, paintings, engravings, sculpture, medals, applied arts etc. Among the written sources are inventories, guide books, lives of artists, archival documents etc., many of which are exact transcriptions. In addition, there is a detailed network of names-, dates- and location-references.
The Census is the electronic version of a Corpus. This Corpus is subdivided into several main parts. The most important headers are antique monuments, renaissance documents, and the name, location and date authorities. All parts are linked to each other. For example: an entry of an antique monument contains also all relevant renaissance documents. The most common access to the database will be via the antique monument or via the renaissance document. In addition to this the access via names or locations will be important.
All entries are linked together in a structured way. Moving through the database will allow you to reach any point in the database. The links are always established in the same way.
