About the Item

Oil on Canvas. Accompanied by expertise from Professor Fernando Mazzocca. The painting belongs to a series of works by Veronese painter Giuseppe Canella set in Spain, following the artist's stay in that country between 1820 and 1823, which led him to stop by several Spanish cities, most recently Madrid where he attended court. From his travels around Europe, Canella reported numerous drawings from which he took the cues for the works he later reworked in his Milan studio, often later presented at the Brera Academy Exhibitions. In this 'work the reference is to a dramatic period in the history of Spain, marked by the uprisings constitution against King Ferdinand VII of Bourbon, which provoked French intervention in support of the monarchy against the insurgents. In fact, the historical event is almost a pretext for Canella to evoke the ruggedness and charm of the mountainous landscape, which serves as a monumental backdrop to the clash between the army and the insurgents, small, almost indistinct figures. The painting, in excellent condition, has only very slight color falls, which have already been restored. It is presented in a coeval frame.
