About the Item
Oil on gattice wood in octagon. Il gruppo di otto dipinti in oggetto (figg. 1-8) rappresenta, nel classico formato fiorentino dell’ottagono, una serie di effigi femminili a mezza figura.
Più precisamente, si tratta di giovani fanciulle elegantemente vestite, disposte in varie attitudini ma accomunate, ad eccezione di due esemplari sui quali ci soffermeremo in seguito, dall’accento sulla ricchezza, evidenziata sia da particolari di fastose console e drappeggi, sia da collane di perle o tessuti preziosi che le donne talvolta maneggiano, ponendovi così l’accento.
Una delle figure porta in testa una corona reale, altre dei turbanti o inconsueti copricapi. Questi dettagli conferiscono ai personaggi un aspetto principesco, talvolta abbinato a richiami orientaleggianti.
Una formula che riporta alla mente il caso di un dipinto da poco riscoperto nella sua vera identità, il “Ritratto fino a mezzo busto di Regina Armena” di Mario Balassi, seducente connubio di recuperi alloriani ed elementi di fantasia conservato alle Gallerie degli Uffizi (vedi F. Berti, Da ritratto mediceo di Jacopo Ligozzi a Regina d’Armenia di Mario Balassi.
Un caso storico artistico tra fortuna critica, indagini documentarie e osservazioni ‘morelliane’ in “Valori tattili”, 7, 2016, pp. 30-49). Come accennato, si distinguono dagli altri due ottagoni, nei quali le fanciulle occupano maggiore spazio all’interno del dipinto, apparendo di una scala lievemente diversa.
