The Knight - Oil on Board by Pietro della Vecchia - 17th Century

17th Century

About the Item

The Knight is an original painting realized by Pietro della Vecchia during the XVII century. Oil on board. Original title: Ritratto di giovane cavaliere con cappello piumato. Includes the contemporary frame Salvator Rosa with three orders of carving. The boy in the painting is the same model as that of the painting Giovinezza e vecchiaia (private collection). Pietro della Vecchia (Venice, 1603 – Vicenza, 1678) studied with Alessandro Varotari (Il Padovanino), from whom he inherited the interest in Venetian paintings of the sixteenth century, in particular, those of Titian and Giorgione. Recognized for his skills used to reproduce the style of the masters of the sixteenth century, he is also well-known as a painter of genre scenes and portraits. As an official painter of the Republic of Venice, he was commissioned to produce the cardboards of the mosaics for the Basilica of San Marco. When the artist died in 1678, he was buried in San Canciano church in Venice.

  • Virgin and Child with the Infant Saint John
    By Domenico Puligo
    Located in New Orleans, LA
    A masterful example of Italian Mannerist painting, this exceptional panel was composed by the renowned Florentine painter Domenico Puligo. Alongside Jacopo Pontormo and Rosso Fiorentino, Puligo is remembered as one of the foremost figures of the Mannerist movement that rose to prominence during the 16th century in Florence. This panel of the Virgin Mary with the Christ child and Saint John the Baptist is a characteristic example of his celebrated devotional images, which grace museums such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York), Museo del Prado (Madrid), Palazzo Borghese (Rome), and Palazzo Pitti (Florence), among many others. Puligo’s skill with color is fully demonstrated in the beautifully preserved work. Considering its age, the vibrancy and the sheer range of color is remarkable. The Virgin Mary’s crimson dress...
