Also in Arezzo, in the church of San Francesco, the beautiful frescoes of Piero della Francesca's Legend of the True Cross were commissioned by his wife's ancestors, the Bacci family. This study discusses Vasari's two types of religious representation of Saint Francis. One type is devotional, as in the paintings of Holy Families, e.g., The Holy Family with Saint Francis of 1541, at the County Museum of Art of Los Angeles, CA. The other is historical, focusing on the miraculous moment of the stigmatization, e.g., Saint Francis Receiving the Stigmata, 1548, in the church of San Francesco in Rimini. Employing mannerist colors to express the spirituality of the event, Vasari created a new conception of piety, where sobriety and humbleness are honored. These paintings reveal the humanness and sanctity of the protagonist, Saint Francis, devoid of any heroic glamour.展开更多

Environmentally friendly CS plays triple vital roles in this composite. First, it was devoted to in situ reducing metallic silver from silver ions of Ag3PO4. Also, as the carrier of Ag/Ag3PO4 nanoparticles,CS can effectively prevent aggregation. Furthermore, benefitting from the settlement of hydrophilic CS, the prepared composite could be easily separated and recovered from the solution system. X-ray diffraction(XRD), the scanning electron microscope, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS), ultraviolet-visible(UV-vis) diffused reflectance spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) were employed to characterize the properties of materials. The results of photo-decomposition testing showed that the Ag/Ag3PO4/CS composite possessed good activity for the decomposition of Rhodamine B(Rh B) under visible light.展开更多
