Giulio Di Sotto
CHERUBIM PLAYING - Italian School - Figurative Oil on Canvas Painting

2004

About the Item

Cherubim playing - Giulio Di Sotto Italia 2004 - Oil on canvas cm. 50 x 100 Gold dilded wooden frame available on request. The proposed painting represents two putti playing .. Clear contrast of chiaroscuro, with the two cherubs that stand out against the dark background, a pictorial expedient that reinforces the three-dimensionality and emphasizes the volume of the bodies, illuminated by a beam of intense light. In this painting we note the pictorial influence that Caravaggio had in the art of Giulio Di Sotto. In fact, his particular pictorial style and his figurative repertoire testify evident affinities with our beautiful canvas. In particular, it could be inserted in the vast production that the painter dedicates to the theme of the cherub of his career.

  • 18th Century by Matteo Bonechi Presentation of Jesus Painting Oil on Canvas
    Located in Milano, Lombardia
    Matteo Bonechi (Florence 1669 - Florence 1756) Presentation of Jesus Oil on canvas, cm. 75 x 49 – with frame cm. 89,5 x 65 Shaped, carved and gilded wooden box frame Expertise: Sandro Bellesi Publications: Bozzetti, modelletti, sketches: dalla collezione di Giorgio Baratti (From the Giorgio Baratti Collection) curated by Anna Orlando, Agnese Marengo and Annalisa Scarpa, Genova, 2022, pp. 20, 21. The present painting is a very interesting testimony of the creative process of Matteo Bonechi, one of the leading artists on the Tuscan art scene in the early 18th century. The canvas in question is in fact the last preparatory model made by Bonechi before he executed an altarpiece for the church of San Filippo Neri in Cortona in 1716. The scene presented here is that of the Presentation of Jesus, when, forty days after his birth, the child is ransomed through an offering in the temple and placed in the hands of Simeon, who prophesies his future: the coming of the Messiah...
