About the Item

Questo splendido esempio di tecnica mista e serigrafia dei primi del Novecento è ispirato dalla serie manierista "Mesi e grottesche" realizzata a Bruxelles da Michel Coxcie (1499-1592) e Cornelis Floris (1514-1575), nello specifico all'Allegoria del mese di agosto. Date le notevoli dimensioni, è composto da tre tele centrali e sei strisce si tela lungo i bordi. Al centro della scena, dentro un'edicola riccamente decorata, troneggia la figura di Cerere, la dea dell'abbondanza e del raccolto, che tiene una falce e il simbolo zodiacale della Vergine, attributi del mese d'agosto. Il resto della scena è occupato da grottesche caratterizzate da putti, vasi fioriti, animali e creature mitiche, mentre ai due lati si trovano due scenari campestri. The rest is occupied by a red background on which are emerging grotesque characterized by puttis, vases with flowers, animals, mythical creatures, while at the two sides there are two countryside scenario. Lungo il bordo la scritta AUGUSTUS / SUB TUTELA CERERES / CUM SIGNO VIRGINIS (Agosto sotto la protezione di Cerere con il segno della vergine) e BACHUS UT/ ERIGONEM/ FIOTA (sic) DECEPERIT UVA (come Bacco ingannò Erigone con l'uva). Estratto dell'expertise di Laura Zaccagnini.
