David and Abigail, fourth decade of the 17th century
Located in Milan, IT
The painting, done in oil on canvas, depicts the meeting between King David and Abigail, as narrated in the biblical text from the First Book of Samuel (I Samuel 25:1-34).
David, left without food in the wilderness with his army, seeks relief from the wealthy Nabal, who contemptuously denies him any help, ungrateful of the benevolence he previously received from the king. Upon hearing the rejection, the ruler intends to take revenge by killing his entire lineage. Abigail, Nabal's beautiful and wise wife, decides to right the wrong and bring David plenty of food and gifts. In the king's presence the woman humbles herself, winning his forgiveness and benevolence. Soon afterwards widowed, she will in fact become his bride.
The broad scene depicts the climax of the Old Testament episode, the moment when the woman prostrates herself before David and his servants prepare to deliver the gifts.
The biblical event is here a pretext, as is customary in modern-age painting, for staging the colorful description of a sumptuous procession, which can be divided into two parts, almost two wings of a crowd divided specularly: on the left David with his dignitaries and the army; on the other, Abigail's retinue, handmaids, servants leading dromedaries and donkeys laden with food.
The crowded group of figures is set in a natural proscenium: above a low horizon, barely hinted at by distant blue mountains, rises on the left side a craggy rocky cliff, the shelter of the army led by the ruler.
The 'somatic intonation of the characters, as well as the choice of metallic chromatics and the play of light on the shiny fabrics refer to a clear Flemish matrix, particularly the influence of the frothy and sumptuous painting of Rubens and Van Dyck.
As well set forth in the expert report prepared by Professor Giuseppe Sava, the work is to be attributed to Vincent Malò...

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...

Religious Subject Oil on Canvas Italy XVII Century
Located in Milan, IT
Oil painting on canvas. It is a vintage copy of the engraving of the same name made by Annibale Carracci (1560-1609), which had immediate success and gave rise to a series of printed replicas and painted copies. It presents the moment of the Passion in which Christ is crowned with the crown of thorns, the object of torture, the disparaging symbol of his proclamation as King of Kings. The act is performed by two figures, the Roman soldier and the Jew, representing the two people who they took part in Christ's death sentence. The figures, vigorous and sanguine, those of the two tormentors paler and more inert than the victim, create an intertwined composition of bodies, with that of the central Jesus joining the other two, uniting them in the shared responsibility of what they are doing; placed sideways, Jesus has his head bent forcibly to the left by the soldier who imposes the crown of thorns on him, while the Jew on the right places the bamboo cane in his hand, replacing the scepter. The scene is dominated by gloomy and dark colors, among which only the bright red of Christ's robe stands...

Paesaggio con Figure, 1700s

Located in Milan, IT
Olio su tela.
La grande composizione propone un paesaggio che vede centrale un grande albero. a sormontare con le sue rade frasche la campagna sottostante, traversata da un corso d'acqua e animata da diverse figure di popolani intenti ad attività o a riposo; in alto a destra si erge una fortezza, che domina la vallata.
Già attribuito al marchigiano Peruzzini, il dipinto si può ricondurre senz'altro al suo ambito, per i tratti pittorici veloci e poco aggregati.
Antonio Francesco si specializzò nella pittura di paesaggio, subendo l'influenza di Salvator Rosa e di paesaggisti come Pietro Montanini...

The scene, set at night in the garden of a villa, of which you can glimpse the ornate facade on the right and in which the fountain gushing with cherubs stands out, under a dark sky and further obscured by heavy clouds, proposes two figures who entertain each other in conversation : an elderly modestly dressed is sternly admonishing a seated young man, richly dressed, who seems instead to make the gesture of mea culpa with his hand. The physiognomy and the gestures of the two characters, together with the style of the clothes, would refer to the philosopher Aristotle who was called to the court of Macedon to be the tutor...

Penitent Magdalene and St. John the Baptist, oil on slate, early 17th century
Located in Milan, IT
The figure of the Magdalene emerges from the
darkness, leaning to follow the curve of the stone
support; it is depicted vaulted with an interrogative
air towards the dark, as if in an attitude of listening,
the left hand raised and the other leaning on the
"memento mori" very shortened. In front of her a
scourge and the jar of ointment.
Painted en pendant, Saint John the Baptist is depicted
as a young man, with a lamb at his feet, in his hand
the processional cross with the banner "exception
agnus dei", while with his right hand he draws from
the source of water, recalling the episode that will see
Jesus Christ baptized.
In both paintings the figures stand out in a strong and
incisive way thanks to the black that characterizes the
slate plate on which they are depicted.
Historical-critical analysis:
We are faced with two examples of oil painting on
stone. The beginnings of this particular technique are
to be placed in the first half of the sixteenth century:
after some fifteenth-century experiments it is with
Sebastiano del Piombo that the genre takes hold in
the sixteenth century. There were different types of
support used, also linked to their availability:
amethyst, marble in various colors, alabaster and
blackboard. The reasons underlying this technical
choice refer to Renaissance artistic theories: it is no
coincidence that the painter who most often
experimented with oil painting on marble...
