Micromosaic Panel "Casco D’oro (The Man with the Golden Helmet)" After Rembrandt
By Studio Del Mosaico Vaticano
Located in Yardley, PA
An exceptional micromosaic made by the Vatican Mosaic Workshop after Rembrandt’s celebrated “Man in a Golden Helmet.” Composed of thousands of hand-cut glass tesserae, the work captures the brilliance of Rembrandt’s chiaroscuro with extraordinary precision. The armor glows with metallic depth, and the sitter’s expression retains its quiet intensity which made the original painting so famous.

Festa galante nel parco. Scuola francese. Metà XVIII secolo
Located in Milan, IT
La scena raffigura una festa all’interno di un parco cintato da mura con varchi ad arco che si aprono sulla campagna, e ornato sulla destra con un’anfora su colonnina e al centro, dietro le figure, con una fontana zampillante, con statue di putti e conchiglie.
Due coppie di dame e gentiluomini riccamente vestiti si intrattengono galantemente, circondati dalla servitù; uno degli uomini sta suonando il violino, accovacciato davanti alla sua dama che, affiancata dalla damigella, segue la melodia sullo spartito retto dal moretto al suo fianco, mentre due musicanti accompagnano la suonata con il flauto e un mandolino; l’altra coppia, in atteggiamento di dialogo intimo, ascolta sulla sinistra, mentre sulla destra anche il cacciatore che rientra dalla caccia osserva la scena.
Nella scena spicca in particolare il ricco abito della dama al centro, caratterizzato dalle ampie pieghe posteriori ricadenti dalle spalle a creare un mantello. Tale abito corrisponde a quello che veniva chiamato “robe à la Watteau”, dal nome del pittore francese Antoine Watteau che per primo ritrasse signore indossanti questo modello.
Antoine Watteau (1684 -1721), pittore francese considerato uno dei più influenti esponenti francesi della pittura rococò, fu il precursore del genere pittorico delle scene galanti, genere sviluppatosi in Francia dalla fine del ‘600 e protrattosi per tutto il secolo successivo.
Le scene galanti si potevano considerare come la versione aristocratica della scene di genere: caratterizzate da musica, danze, piacevoli conversazioni fra dame e gentiluomini attorniati dalla servitù, tendevano a esaltare i costumi, gli abiti alla moda, gli ambienti della classe elevata, trasmettendo una sorta di distacco dai tempi e i luoghi reali, proiettando lo spettatore in una atmosfera quasi teatrale, fatta di gesti, sguardi, colori e luci da palcoscenico.
Peraltro Watteau, insieme ai cicli delle Fêtes galantes, si distinse anche per quelli ispirati al teatro, assorbendo la passione per le scene e i personaggi di tale ambiente da Claude Gillot...
