About the Item
Late 17th-century Bolognese painter
Circle of Carlo Cignani (Bologna 1628 - Forlì 1719)
Noli me tangere
‘’Apparition of Christ to Mary Magdalene‘’
oil on canvas
120 x 92 cm
framed 132 x 103 cm.
This is a fascinating work, both for the rare subject immortalised and for the pictorial execution, which shows the peculiar characteristics of Emilian painting, more specifically Bolognese, which made it one of the most appreciated schools in the rich panorama of Italian Baroque.
The scene is certainly pleasing, with a chiaroscuro effect that gives a beautiful plasticity to the two protagonists, and the quality of the drafting and drawing also appear good.
These characteristics combine to create a perfect compositional balance, evoking the inescapable models of 17th-century classicism devised by Guido Reni.
We are before the biblical episode known as ‘Noli me tàngere’, with the apparition of the risen Jesus to Mary Magdalene.
Taken from the Gospel according to John, it is a theme dear to seventeenth-century iconography, and sees Christ, near the empty tomb, suddenly appearing to Mary Magdalene, who, however, does not immediately recognise him and even mistakes him for ‘the keeper of the garden’. As soon as the woman sees him, weeping, she asks for information on what had become of Christ's body, who answers her by name only, thus finally making himself recognised.
It is at this point that Jesus pronounces the famous phrase Noli me tàngere (Latin for ‘do not hold me back’), ordering Mary Magdalene to let him go, and to warn the disciples of his resurrection.
Jesus is depicted holding a spade (not a stick as one might think) and this iconography is meant to represent the error of Mary Magdalene who, in the biblical account, does not immediately recognise Jesus, initially mistaking him for the gardener.
Going into attribution details, the canvas reveals strong stylistic and compositional affinities with the works of the master Carlo Cignani (Bologna 1628 - Forlì 1719), so much so that it can be traced back to a painter of his circle.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

Annunciation Bonini Paint Oil in canvas Old master 17th Century Leonardo Italy
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
Girolamo Bonini, called Anconitano (Ancona, circa 1600 - Bologna 1680)
Annunciation (or Madonna of the Beautiful Angel)
Oil on canvas (115 x 91 cm. - Framed 134 x 108 cm.)
Work accompanied by the expertise of Prof. Emilio Negro
The work, undoubtedly commissioned as an object of private devotion, shows the Annunciation to the Virgin Mary, a Gospel episode here set on the two figures portrayed in the foreground, the Archangel Gabriel with outstretched wings, a portrait of supernatural beauty, and the Virgin;
We see her here absorbed in reading a prayer book with her eyes turned humbly downwards as a sign of devotion, while a small cherub hands her white lilies, a symbol of purity and chastity.
In the upper part of the composition is the austere image of God the Father, with the dove radiating with light, emblem of the Holy Spirit, surrounded by a flock of angels fluttering in the clouds charged with intense glow and play of light, in full Baroque style.
It should also be noted that the image of the Saviour's mother in a delicately pious attitude, with her yellow veil, her broad blue mantle and her usual modest red dress from which the edges of her white blouse protrude, is to be interpreted as a kind of tender allegory of sacred love.
The painting in question is an interesting replica with variants of the composition commissioned from Francesco Albani for the Fioravanti chapel in the ancient church...
