This article could do with a picture of the memeorial prior to resroration Franny-K (talk) 19:43, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Frieze list

Copied from the transcription made here, which states "Concerning the 169 sculptures on the podium the “Historical Summary” states that these represent" (followed by the list below). This appears to be saying that the list is a direct transcription from the official source mentioned here: "The subjects are listed in the official history." (ref to "N.M. pp. 65–90."), where "N.M." is "The National Memorial to His Royal Highness the Prince Consort, 1873."

I've copied the list below, added spaces after initials, removed final periods, and provided a wikilinked version next to the original. I intend to redo the wikilinks to point to the articles that I think are about the people listed here, and also create redirects as needed. Carcharoth (talk) 10:39, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

South Front Poets and Musicians

East Front Painters

North Front Architects

West Front Sculptors

The above will be used as the working draft for what will appear in the article. Corrections and comments welcomed. Carcharoth (talk) 10:39, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Useful list

Lives of the Most Excellent Painters, Sculptors, and Architects. Could be useful. Carcharoth (talk) 14:57, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Another source

"The records indicate comparatively little discussion of the subject-matter of Scott's 'frieze' of reliefs. Its affinity to Delaroche's Hémicycle des Beaux Arts in the École des Beaux Arts was avowed by Scott himself." - anyone know what "Delaroche's Hémicycle des Beaux Arts in the École des Beaux Arts" is? Ah, Hippolyte Delaroche is the one. And Hippolyte Delaroche#The Hémicycle is helpful in explaining this. Carcharoth (talk) 17:33, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Tidbits of information

Found by persuing "what links here":

The information from those articles is of varying relevance to this article. Carcharoth (talk) 22:57, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The following are those from the frieze that are still redlinks or disambiguation pages with no article or are otherwise uncertain.

Last four are disambiguation pages. Use Google to find their first names. Carcharoth (talk) 06:33, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Giuliano di Ravenna: What do you feel about Giuliano Argentario, who is variously described as having financed or designed churches around Ravenna, such as San Vitale(547 AD) and San Apollinare in Classe (549 AD) SaundersW (talk) 21:19, 13 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Looks very promising. Unfortunately, I can't find any confirmation. Someone somewhere should know, though. I just have to dig around and ask people. I suspect the answer is not yet on the internet. Carcharoth (talk) 06:56, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
IF he is the right one, and IF the attribution of the image is correct, there is a portrait of him here right behind Justinian's shoulder. SaundersW (talk) 15:53, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Some more links. Basilica of Sant'Apollinare in Classe, Basilica of San Vitale, and another form of his name is Iulianus Argentarius (just a redirect, unfortunately). The statue of him (if it is him) can be seen here (there is enough detail to zoom in). Carcharoth (talk) 16:10, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New image(s)

I visited the Albert Memorial yesterday and took plenty of photos (more detailed images of the freises as well as a couple of the whole monument itself. I do like the old one though so I'm not sure if they are better than the existing one. Just different. I'll upload them today and let you decide.
