[Dúvida] Bernini - Tabelas de luz

[DiogoLopes]

Alberto Campo Baeza, no seu livro "Ideia Construida", fala de uma tabela de luz construida por Lorenzo Bernini mas que fora perdida por Paolo, seu filho. Diz adiante, "sabe-se que Le Corbusier, passados tantos anos, consequiu adquirir num livreiro alfarrabista de paris algumas das paginas chave do precioso manuscrito.". Este relato parece soar a mito no entanto, gostava de saber se alguem ja ouvi falar destas tabelas de luz e se estaõ disponíveis para qualquer um.

Light table
(On acurate control of light)

Lorenzo Bernini, a light magician among alI those there are, made his own tables to measure light accurately, which were very similar to those now used to calculate structures: meticulous and precise. That master knew that light may be measured and classified, as all matter that is evaluated, and may be scientifically controlled.
lt was a pity that on his return from that tiring and unfruitful trip to Paris to try to make the Louvre, his young and absent-minded son Paolo should have lost them. On the 20th of October 1665, Bernini was quite relieved to leave the City of Light which had treated hin so badly, and to his horror, he realised he did not have his tables, which were more valuable to him than the Law itself. Searching gave no results. Chantelou, the punctual and punctilious chronicler of that French trip left everything related to that unfortunate accident out of his detailed narration.
It is known that, many years later, Le Corbusier was able to obtain some of the key pages of that valuable manuscript in a second hand bookshop in Paris, and that he knew how to use it cleverly. Thus he was also able to controllight with such precise precision.
However, light is more than a feeling, although it is capable of moving men's feelings and making us tremble in our innermost being.
To change the small diameter of the skylights in the bathrooms of the Alhambra making them smaller or to change the height of the horizontal superior plane ofthat "continuum" which is Farnsworth House making it larger would be sure formulas to destroy two brilliant pieces of our Culture. This is because continuous space, and the Farnsworth House as its paradigm, is also a matter oflight. The break in tension produced by doubling its interior height would not be so much an error of dimension or proportion but a break with the clear and exact amount oflight, of transparency which makes that space hase something that speaks with certainty of continuity of space, achieved with such great effort by the Modern Movement. It took Ludwig Mies van der Rohe many long years to build such a valuable piece. To achieve that difficult continuity of continuous space, it must be controlled, its dimensions and proportions dominated so they can be efficiendy swept by light.
