Girolamo Troppa Art

Italian, 1636-1710
Girolamo Troppa (Rocchette in Sabina, 2 ottobre 1636 – Terni, Ottobre 1711) è stato un pittore italiano. Girolamo Troppa è un pittore del Seicento, presente nella scena artistica romana e del centro Italia, con moltissime opere sparse per chiese e musei nel territorio nazionale, in Europa e in America. Un artista versatile e un personaggio estroso, eclettico, geniale, ma anche focoso e passionale, dalle caratteristiche particolari, tali da potersi adattare a vari contesti, ma senza perdere la sua predominante. Frequenta a Roma, nella prima giovinezza, botteghe di pittura minori dove impara l'arte del disegno per poi divenire alunno di importanti e celebri artisti come Mario Nuzzi (Mario dei Fiori), Lazzaro Baldi e Andrea Sacchi e forse anche Pier Francesco Mola (anche se non è presente nessuna conferma documentata). Frequenta studiando, l'Accademia di S. Luca a partire dal 1664, dove subì innegabilmente l’influsso del grande pittore Carlo Maratta che in quel periodo dirigeva l’Accademia, fin dai primi esordi, dimostrò ampiamente il suo talento e con il passare gli anni diviene un artista affermato e ricercato. In qualche occasione collabora con Giovan Battista Gaulli detto Baciccio, (con il quale nel 1665 si scontra anche fisicamente a causa di alcune ciarle, riportandone una ferita in volto), ma sviluppa un suo modo caratteristico di dipingere personalizzando le varie componenti della pittura tardo-barocca romana. Ottiene verso il 1685 la Croce di Cavaliere) per l'elevato numero di opere prodotte, collegate alla Chiesa e al Papato. Si sposa due volte (1656 e 1685) e genera quattro figli dalla prima unione con Maddalena Elisabetta De Stefani e ancora quattro dalla successiva con Anna Maffei avvenuta dopo sei anni dalla scomparsa della prima moglie. Quasi cinquantenne abbandona la residenza romana ed il relativo periodo pieno di soddisfazioni, ma anche denso di vicende spiacevoli (liti e guai giudiziari spesso conseguenti ad episodi legati al comportamento della prima moglie), per stabilirsi presso la casa che edifica a Rocchette in Sabina, suo paese natale, dove si integra e ricopre cariche di Consigliere Comunale e Priore della Confraternita del Santissimo Sacramento, qui istituisce una fiorente bottega, disseminando di tele e pitture murali il reatino e la vicina Umbria, ma anche la stessa Chiesa Parrocchiale (dopo aver partecipato attivamente alla sua ricostruzione[5] collaborando con l'amico architetto scultore Miche Valsangiacomo Chiesa). Fu pittore apprezzato dal duca Federico Sforza Cesarini che gli commissionò numerose opere. Trascorre gli ultimi anni della sua esistenza a Rocchette, dipingendo e suonando il cembalo, lasciando la sua casa in rare occasioni, ed è proprio in una queste, nell'ottobre del 1711, che il pittore settantacinquenne muore in circostanze improvvise a Terni, dove viene sepolto. Purtroppo la chiesa annessa al monastero di S.Procolo[6]), dove riposavano le sue spoglie mortali, oggi è del tutto scomparsa in seguito ai bombardamenti della città nel corso dell'ultimo conflitto mondiale.

Three Angels
By Domenico Piola the Elder
Located in New York, NY
Provenance: Robert L. and Bertina Suida Manning, New York, until 1996 Private Collection, USA One of the leading artists in Genoa during the second half of the seventeenth century, Domenico Piola came from a successful family of artists, renowned for their many illusionistic ceiling programs throughout Genoese churches and palaces. A prolific draughtsman and painter, Domenico oversaw an extremely productive studio. In addition to his collaborations with numerous other artists, Domenico also provided many designs for book illustrations and prints that circulated throughout Europe, earning him international exposure and high acclaim in his own day. As Dr. Anna Orlando has indicated (written communication), the present work is an early work by Piola, datable from the late 1640s. At this time the young artist came strongly under the influence of Castiglione and Valerio Castello, while admiring the works of Giulio Cesare Procaccini. Piola’s works from this period are exuberant and fluid, and the artist’s love of portraying children is evident from the angels and putti that populate both his altarpieces and more intimate paintings. The present work depicts three angels...
