“Nymphs crown
Abundance” by Peter Paul Rubens (1577/1640)
“Judith and
Holofernes” by G.B. Piazzetta (1683/1754)
“The
artistic expression of Piazzetta was the result of extraordinary intensity of
feeling, not diluted, but deliberately concentrated in dense and short
summaries of painting. In fact Piazzetta, although Venetian by birth, education
and art, seems to have wanted to pursue a tantalizingly mirage of plastic
perfection: so that his work ranged, because of its inherent extreme
difficulty, between the highest pinnacles of art and the disappointment of not
reaching the desired results. Technically, the painter is distinguished by the
Venetians of his time for a strong unusual draughtsmanship, although his is a
pictorial design, without anything of linear in itself. It would be enough as
evidence to remind how he was the greatest drawer of the eighteenth century”
(Enciclopedia Treccani)

Marriage of St. Catherine” by Sebastiano Conca
(1680/1764)
“Portrait of
the English painter John Parker”, “Christ with St.
Margaret of Cortona” and “Self-Portrait” by Marco
Benefial (1684/1764)
“The
simplicity of the representation (of this self-portrait by Benefial), which
focuses on the individual, as it appears, ignoring attributes and ornaments,
seems to be an important element of identification, together with the fiery
attitude, a little contemptuous and his character shown without fear and
uncertainties. A probable date for the painting is the middle of the second
decade of the eighteenth century, showing the sitter here when he was about
forty years old. Regarding the revolutionary art of the Roman artist Evelina
Borea spoke 'of a strong and passionate naturalism absolutely innovative in
those years in Rome', ‘of singular naturalistic clarity' and 'of a
clarification of the detail, never giving up to decorative frills' (in E.
Borea, Benefial Marco, DBI, 8, Rome, 1966, pp. .467), elements that we can
fully relate to the work here examined” (Antonello Cesareo - Website of the
Academy of St. Luke www.accademiasanluca.it)

“Portrait of

“Allegory of
Gratitude” 1706
by Pier Leone Ghezzi (1674/1755)
“The
painting became part of the academic collections as 'joining gift' by Pier
Leone Ghezzi. Starting from the oldest statutes of the Society, in fact, it was
prescribed that each new member at the time of appointment would donate an
essay of his art as a gift to the academic collections. (...) The iconography
of the 'Gratitude' is derived from the 'Iconology' by Cesare Ripa. (...) The
inscription on the table and the presence of the evergreen juniper allude to
the durability of memory. On the day of admission of Pier Leone Ghezzi to the
Academy was present Giuseppe, his father who, as the sources mention, played an
important role in the education of his son” (Paola Picardi)

artificial figures seen against polished marbles, illusionistic skills playing
