Giuseppe Bartolomeo Chiari Art
Italian, 1654-1727
Giuseppe Bartolomeo Chiari (Rome, 10 March 1654 - Rome, 8 September 1727) was an Italian painter.
Favorite pupil of Carlo Maratta, he was one of the most characteristic artists of early 18th century Rome. In the third decade of the century his prestige led him to assume the position of prince of the Academy of San Luca. He worked in Palazzo Barberini (it was Giovan Pietro Bellori who suggested that he take inspiration from the famous Aurora by Guido Reni in the Pallavicini casino), in Palazzo Colonna, in San Silvestro in Capite, in Palazzo Spada. One of his best works is the Adoration of the Magi at the Gemäldegalerie in Berlin.
Chiari reached the pinnacle of fame during the pontificate of Clement XI (1700 - 1721): in those years he was joined by the master Carlo Maratta in the preparation of the cartoons for the mosaics of the side naves of St. Peter's Basilica, he was commissioned the oval with the prophet Obadiah for S. Giovanni in Laterano and was commissioned to paint the Glory of San Clemente for the basilica of the same name.
An academic artist of good quality, Chiari often used motifs taken from the major exoponents of seventeenth-century classicism, such as Andrea Sacchi, Guido Reni, Carlo Maratta, not disdaining some masters of the Baroque, first of all Pietro da Cortona.to

Giuseppe Bartolomeo Chiari (1654-1727), also known simply as Giuseppe Chiari, was an Italian painter of the late-Baroque period, active mostly in Rome. Born in Rome, he was one of the main assistants, along with Giuseppe Passeri and Andrea Procaccini, in the studio of an elder Carlo Maratta. His father had opposed the career, but his mother, on the recommendation of a painter named Carlo Antonio Gagliani. By the age of 22, he had frescoed the lateral lunettes (Birth of Virgin and Adoration of Magi...

18th century Portrait of a lady as Erato, the muse of poetry - Angelica Kauffman
By Angelica Kauffmann
Located in Antwerp, BE
18th century English school portrait of a lady, said to be Mrs. John Ruscombe of Colne, Lancaster, as the muse Erato
This very skilfully painted portrait depicts a lady as the muse Erato, playing the Lyre. Her eyes are filled with emotion and her lips are curved in a soft, delightful smile. Hinting at the love song she is composing? Erato is one of the nine Muses in Greek mythology. She is the muse of lyric poetry, love poetry, and mimicry. Erato is often depicted holding a lyre, symbolizing her association with music and poetry. She inspires poets and writers to create works that celebrate love, beauty, and human emotions.
Our painting was sold in the early 1900s as a work by Angelica Kauffman. Kauffman was an 18th-century Swiss Neoclassical painter who achieved significant success and recognition in a male-dominated art world. Born in Switzerland in 1741, she showed exceptional talent from a young age and received formal art training in Italy. Kauffman gained fame for her historical and mythological paintings, as well as her portraits, which were characterized by their grace, elegance, and classical influences. She was a founding member of the Royal Academy of Arts in London and enjoyed patronage from aristocrats and royalty throughout Europe. Kauffman's work contributed to the rise of Neoclassicism and she remains one of the most prominent female artists of her time.
