ARTISTIC CANONS AND LEGAL PROTECTION - CHIARA M...

The edicts on the antiquities and artworks issued in the Papal States and Greece in the early
19th century were the first comprehensive legislation for the protection of heritage in Europe.
In this volume  such laws are analysed from a cultural  juridical and art-historical
perspective in order to understand how both legal and artistic scholarship affected the
guardianship of artefacts  fluctuations in the art market and the establishment of innovative
systems for heritage administration in Rome and Athens. The analysis of the origins of these
laws  discussed in comparison to earlier edicts (5th-18th century)  and of their cultural
consequences also sheds light on the development of new definitions of art  artwork or monument
which are fundamental to contemporary approaches to heritage protection in Europe.
