The Bust of Ottavio Farnese at the J. Paul Getty Museum: An Addition to the Corpus of Giovanni Battista della Porta
No full textThe various sculpted busts of Ottavio Farnese (1524–86), duke of Parma and Piacenza, are still at the center of debates of attribution. Focusing on the bust in Carrara marble in the collection of the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, the author proposes a new attribution to Lombard-born sculptor Giovanni Battista della Porta (1542–97), one of the protagonists of the Roman artistic scene in the second half of the sixteenth century. While archival sources attest to Della Porta’s ambition to work in the service of the duke and to Farnese’s awareness of the sculptor’s artistic achievements, the attribution is largely based on comparisons with Della Porta’s works. Finally, the author discusses hypotheses related to the dating of the bust, the occasion of its creation, its original location in Parma, and the bust’s movements prior to its entry into the Getty collection

The assessment of motivation in the Saint Paul Hotel employees
No full textPlan BKey words: hospitality and tourism, employees’ motivation, turnover, absenteeism, human resource. The collective hotel industry is a significant parrot of the world tourism industry. The industry is by design delivers services to be registered and non registered guests. Key in the process of delivering service in any hotel situation is the hotel staff. The ultimate quality of service provided will depend on the collective ability of staff, training and individual motivation to produce the services demanded by the guest. Hotels are physical structures supported by human resources that enable the delivery of service. Key in the process of delivering quality service is the individual motivation of all employees whether professional, skilled or unskilled. With the growth of the service industry the hotel industry now competes for quality service employees. Research finds that it is a challenge for hotel management today to motivate employees to provide quality services as high turnover and absenteeism is widespread in the United States hotel industry. This study evaluated the motivation factors of employees in a four star hotel in St. Paul, Minnesota. The study centered on why people choose to work for this specific hotel while modeling motivational factors that enable their overall performance. The study also sought to learn if there is a gender based difference in motivational factors. The results of the study revealed that the main reasons people choose to work at the hotel was based on the “quality” class of the hotel, interesting jobs, salary and job security. When considering the gender construct, gender did have a role influencing employees’ perception of motivational factors. Males preferred salary, job security and loyalty to employees, while females preferred interesting jobs, working environment and camaraderie with co-workers
