Pinos y arte : ensayo de contextualización en la naturaleza desde el Paleolítico a Roma

Al ser la naturaleza objeto de representación artística por el hombre, campos tan diversos como el arte y la ciencia forestal pueden compartir sus orígenes. Los pinos son un género botánico repartido por la cuenca mediterránea capaces de suscitar emociones al haber sido sujetos de lo que fue una innovación cultural. Se propone que los pinos pudieron ser objeto de las primeras representaciones artísticas de los antiguos pobladores de la Península Ibérica. La metodología en la selección de resultados se basa en patrones morfológicos: patrón 1 (plántulas de pino en sus primeras etapas de crecimiento), patrón 2 (dibujos asimilables a ramas de pino) y patrón 3 (dibujos de pinos de gran porte). La presentación de los resultados se estructura en: parte I (referente a las representaciones artísticas estimadas como de pinos en la prehistoria, diferenciando el arte paleolítico del post-paleolítico), parte II (contempla los resultados encontrados en el repertorio iconográfico del arte Íbero y Celtíbero) y parte III (presenta una selección de resultados del arte romano en Hispania). Las diferentes etapas artísticas se articulan comenzando con una introducción, seguida de enfoques multidisciplinares que incluyen una visión histórica del paisaje o de la ecología de la vegetación. A continuación se exponen los resultados de la revisión realizada en cada etapa histórica y el estudio y descripción de las piezas seleccionadas (localización geográfica, datación arqueológica, clasificación genérica de técnica, materiales, dimensiones, iconografía, contexto cultural y procedencia) y por último su discusión en cuanto a su adscripción al género Pinus y a la flora presente en el entorno, caso de ser posible. Esta información se completa con gráficos, diagramas, mapas y tablas situándolas en su contexto arqueológico y cronológico, aportando datos sobre el carácter utilitario, simbólico o ideológico de los pinos, cuya pervivencia se manifiesta en ser protagonistas de gran número de festejos en la España rural de nuestros días. SUMMARY Nature has been represented in paintings since ancient times, which enables fields of study as separate as art and forest science to share a common origin. Pine-tress belong to a botanical genus widely distributed throughout the Mediterranean basin, which are capable of rising emotion and being a representation of what at that time was cultural innovation, subsequently becoming symbols. In this dissertation we hypothesise that pine forest may have been one of the first artistic representations of the ancient dwellers of the Iberian Peninsula. The methodology used for the selection of results is based on morphological patterns, i.e.: Patern 1 (pine seedlings at their first developmental stages), Pattern 2 (drawings associated with pine branches and shoots), and Pattern 3 (paintings of large pine-trees). Results are shown according to the following structure: Part I (relating to prehistoric paintings identified as pines and differentiating Paleolithic from Post-Paleolithic art), Part II (involves the results gathered concerning Iberian and Celtiberian iconographic art) and Part III (including a selection of Roman art in Hispania concerning pine representations). The different artistic periods are linked beginning by an Introduction, followed by a multidisciplinary approach ranging from a historical landscape analysis to plant ecology within a Mediterranean context. Thereafter, results are presented by assessing each historical period and by describing each of the particular art pieces subjected to investigation (geographical location, archaeological date, generic classification of the art technique, materials, dimensions, iconography and cultural context and origin). Finally, the results are discussed according to their ascription to the Pinus genus and when possible, in relation with the surrounding flora. The information provided is complemented with diagrams, maps and tables to enable its understanding within a chronological and archaeological context and providing evidence for the functional, symbolic and ideological character of pines, which are still alive in Spain in the form of many rural feasts with particular kinds of celebrations where this species plays a central role.
