About the Item
Francesca Volò Smiller, called Vincenzina (Milan, 1657 - 1700) - circle of
Floral composition
Oil on canvas (97 x 72 cm. - in octagonal frame 100 x 84 cm.)
A rich floral composition, arranged with a meditated casualness on two planes at different heights, where the two flower bouquets are gathered in large metal vases; some of the flowers seem to overflow from their seats and descend to the ground, in an ensemble that stands out for its elegant structure, combined with the freshness and brilliance of the colours.
The soft, nuanced way in which the colour is spread and the points of contact with 17th-century Lombard painting allow us to trace the work back to the circle of the Milanese painter Francesca Volò Smiller, known as Vincenzina (Milan, 1657 - 1700), a refined specialist in this genre of painting and an important exponent of the largest and most prolific family of Milanese painters of the 17th century.
The founder of this highly successful 'family enterprise' was her father, the French Italianised Vincenzo Volò, known as Vincenzino dei Fiori (1601-1671), who, in addition to Francesca, also employed her brother Giuseppe Volò (also nicknamed 'Vicenzino') and sister Margherita Volò Caffi in his workshop.
Francesca's painting is characterised by a high quality of execution, for the rendering of the flowers through an intense and heartfelt naturalism, with a prevalence of acidulous and cold colours brightened by touches of deep red and illuminated by the skilful use of white; Francesca arranges cut flowers or flowers arranged in vases outdoors with great compositional freedom, whose shimmering colours (pink, white and yellow are the preferred colours) emerge from the dark background.
The canvas is in a good state of preservation.

- De Wit Flowers Still life Paint Oil on canvas 18th Century Flemish Cupids ArtLocated in Riva del Garda, ITJacob De Wit (Amsterdam, 1695 - 1754) attributable/ workshop Pair of Cupids with Garland of Flowers Oil on canvas 91 x 103 cm. - Framed 104 x 115 cm. Provenance: Christie's (London, Old master Painting 12.12.1996) lot 82 This magnificent composition depicts two cupids holding a garland of flowers, placed on a fine architecture with bas-reliefs and masks, presumably the top of a fountain. One of the two cupids sympathetically holds a part of it with his hands, while his head turns towards the viewer; the second cupid, on the other hand, must have clumsily broken the thread holding its end, and is sitting sullenly with a torch and a tear streaking his chubby cheek. The work, given its stylistic features and compositional taste, can be attributed to the Flemish artist Jacob de Wit (Amsterdam, 1695 - 1754), or to an artist from his workshop, with his typical triumphal and opulent style, which reveals clear influences from Rubens and Van Dijck, but also from Gerard de Lairesse...Category

- Ascione Still Life Paint Oil on canvas Old master Baroque 17/18th Century ItalyBy Aniello Ascione (Naples, news from 1680 to 1708)Located in Riva del Garda, ITAniello Ascione (Naples, news from 1680 to 1708) Still life with festoon of flowers and fruit Oil painting on canvas, 89 x 117 cm in frame cm 109 x 137 With expertise and attributive study by Prof. Stefano Causa (University of Naples) '' This fruit composition with a festoon of flowers belongs to Aniello Ascione's brush and is a prominent addition to the final game of the Neapolitan still life - the most baroque and decorative one can imagine. The naturalistic work, still Caravaggesque, of the specialists of the early sixteenth century, from Luca Forte to Porpora, now seems a distant memory. The name of Ascione also comes from the comparison with the still life signed by the Civic Museum of Castello Ursini in Catania, against which the painting in question qualifies as a sixteenth version. On the other hand, it is not uncommon for easily repeatable patterns to recur in the workshops of still life painters. The melon on the right, the rush of flowers and, in the background, the profile of a column or a fountain. We could compare them to the normalized formal types used by great southern...Category
