About the Item
Alessandro Salucci (Florence, 1590 - Rome, 1657)
Fantastic view with port and architectural capriccio
Oil on canvas (94 x 129 cm - framed 117 x 156 cm)
The painting is accompanied by a critical report by Ferdinando Arisi
The scene, bathed in a striking morning light, depicts a fantastic harbour view dominated on the right by an imposing classical architectural structure, flanked by a Renaissance-style palace, while in the background we see the ruins of a portico punctuated by arches and Corinthian columns.
The fascinating composition is enlivened by figures of merchants dressed in oriental fashion, waiting to resume their journey laden with goods. Professor Arisi recognises the style of the Florentine painter Alessandro Salucci (Florence, 1590 - Rome, c. 1660) who, after initially training in his hometown, moved to Rome at a very young age, where he soon began collaborating with established painters and specialising in the execution of imaginary architectural views, becoming one of the most significant vedutisti active in the Eternal City Specifically, our work can be traced back to the documented collaboration between the painter, a specialist in the creation of painted architecture, and the Flemish artist Jan Miel (1599 - 1663), who was active in Rome from 1636 and was one of the most famous artists of the “bamboccianti” movement, and who created the figures.
His creations were strongly influenced by the art of Viviano Codazzi (1604–1670), with whom he was often confused, but they are distinguished by greater imagination, managing to blend the main Roman monuments with refined elegance.
The element that makes his “capriccios” unique is the creative power with which he outlines the characters: he does not seek to represent buildings in an objective or realistic manner, and therefore his works are true architectural scenographies of pure fantasy.
The ancient structures in his compositions, such as the arch in the background here, are not recorded in archaeological detail but are used exclusively for decorative effect.
For comparison, see some paintings similar to ours in terms of quality and scenic setting, where we find the same compositional scheme with the same building on the side in the foreground serving as a backdrop, and the composition unfolding in a dynamic succession of multiple planes.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
The painting is sold complete with a pleasant antique frame and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and a descriptive iconographic card.

View AllLandscape See Paint Oil on canvas Flemish Old master 18th Century Italian Art
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
Flemish painter active in Italy in the eighteenth century
Coastal landscape of the Mediterranean with architectures and figures
Oil painting on canvas (69 x 88 cm., in frame 80 x 100 cm.)
The suggestive view proposed depicts a coastal view with a bay and the ruins of an ancient building, probably a monastery or a church, and in the background another building with a garden surrounded by high walls close to the shore.
The type of landscape, typical of the southern Italian environment, and the intimate atmosphere that welcomes the scene, attributes the authorship of the work to a landscape painter active in the eighteenth century, presumably in Italy in this period, with immediate references to the Dutch school , and in particular to the production of Jacob de Heusch and above all of Gaspar van Wittel, considered the progenitor of Italian landscape painting.
In fact, in the rendering of the architectural details, in the purity with which the buildings have been reconstructed, as well as in the atmosphere that encompasses the entire landscape, a marked correspondence to the so-called "Vanvitellian realism" can be seen: in fact, a comparison with a certain series of views which the Dutchman...

Landscape with river and resting shepherds
First half of the 18th century
oil painting on canvas
cm. 60 x 93, within a carved and gilded wooden frame cm. 75 x 108
This delightful landscape view animated by a family of shepherds who rest from their daily duties should be compared to the hand of Francesco Zuccarelli (Pitigliano 1702 - Florence 1788);
In the landscapes painted by Zuccarelli the world is crystallized, frozen in a moment of idyllic quiet,
where the 'Arcadian' sense of the landscape is rendered with that pictorial vivacity, chromatic lightness and compositional grace that we find in its entirety in his painting.
By way of comparison we can compare our canvas to other compositions, including:
- Landscape with river and resting shepherds, Accademia Carrara, Bergamo
- Landscape with bridge and horseman, Accademia Carrara, Bergamo
- Landscape with river, village, fisherman and shepherdesses' (Christie's, London May 1960,
- Landscape with figures, Accademia Carrara,
