William Blundell Spence (Drypool, – ) est un artiste, musicien et peintre, et un amateur vendeur d'art[1] britannique qui vécut à Florence dès ses 22 ans.

Biographie

Fils de l'entomologiste William Spence et d'Elizabeth Blundell, il accompagna ses parents à l'étranger pendant la période 1826-1832.

En 1836, il s'installa à Florence où il resta le reste de sa vie, habitant à partir de 1867 la Villa Medicea di Fiesole où il hébergea, entre autres, le peintre préraphaélite William Holman Hunt qui y peignit Caught et Tuscan Girl en prenant les filles du jardinier comme modèles.

Dans les années 1850, il fit confectionner des coffres néo-Renaissance avec Stefano Bardini et Elia Volpi par les artistes florentins Antonio Ponziani et Luigi Frullini, pour mettre en valeur[2] les panneaux détachés de cassone pour leurs clients.

En 1856 il conseilla l'historien et théologien, Alexander William Crawford Lindsay pour ses nombreux achats d'œuvres d'art dont la Fuite en Égypte de Guido Reni (maintenant à Bradford, Cartwright Hall).

Il écrivit de nombreux guides populaires sur la Toscane en s'inspirant[3] des anecdotes vasariennes.

Le peintre Alfred Stevens (1817-1875) fit son portrait en 1851.

Ancient Egyptian afterlife beliefs

This detail scene from the Papyrus of Hunefer (c. 1375 BC) shows Hunefer's heart being weighed on the scale of Maat against the feather of truth, by the jackal-headed Anubis. The ibis-headed Thoth, scribe of the gods, records the result. If his heart is lighter than the feather, Hunefer is allowed to pass into the afterlife. If not, he is eaten by the waiting Ammit. Vignettes such as these were a common illustration in Egyptian books of the dead.[1]Part of a series onAncient Eg...
