About the Item

Roman school of the 17th century Jesus among the Doctors 103X71 cm good conditions Jesus among the doctors is a fresco (200x185 cm) by Giotto, dating back to around 1303-1305 and part of the cycle of the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua. It is included in the Stories of Jesus in the upper central register, on the left wall looking towards the altar. The scene is set inside the Temple of Jerusalem where twelve-year-old Jesus is lost by his parents, who find him discussing religion and philosophy with the doctors. Set in an indoor environment, with naves covered by cross vaults, niches, a coffered ceiling and vegetal festoons, it has an intuitive perspective offset to the right, to accommodate the viewer's gaze. The scene is in fact located in the corner of the left wall, next to the Last Judgment on the back wall. On a seat the young Jesus, dressed in red, is discussing with ten wise men, depicted with beards (like the ancient philosophers) and wrapped in cloaks with hoods. On the left, Joseph and Mary come running. The Virgin extends her arms, demonstrating, with a gesture taken from everyday life, her apprehension due to the child's loss. Giuseppe also raises a hand, struck by the amazement of the situation. The spatiality of the environment is large and monumental, unlike the more contracted ones of the previous episodes.

Located in Milano, Lombardia
Matteo Bonechi (Florence, Italy, 1669 - Florence, Italy, 1756) Title: Presentation of Jesus Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: without frame 75 x 49 cm – with frame 89.5 x 65 cm Shaped, carved and gilded wooden box frame Not signed Expertise by Sandro Bellesi, Professor and art historian Fairs: The International Biennial of Antiques in Florence 2022 (BIAF, Biennale Internazionale dell’Antiquariato di Firenze) Publications: Bozzetti, modelletti, sketches: dalla collezione di Giorgio Baratti (From the Giorgio Baratti Collection) curated by Anna Orlando, Agnese Marengo and Annalisa Scarpa, Genova, 2022, pp. 20, 21. The present painting is a very interesting testimony of the creative process of Matteo Bonechi, one of the leading artists on the Tuscan art scene in the early 18th century. The canvas in question is in fact the last preparatory model made by Bonechi before he executed an altarpiece for the church of San Filippo Neri in Cortona in 1716. The scene presented here is that of the Presentation of Jesus, when, forty days after his birth, the child is ransomed through an offering in the temple and placed in the hands of Simeon, who prophesies his future: the coming of the Messiah...
