About the Item
Antonio Balestra (Verona, Italy, 1666 - 1740)
Title: Solomon Sacrificing to the Idols
Medium: Oil on canvas
Dimensions: without frame 73 x 98 cm
Painting without frame.
Born in Verona in 1666, Antonio Balestra began his training in Rome where he became a pupil of Carlo Maratta (1625 – 1713), an Italian painter active mostly in Rome. Thanks to his apprenticeship with Carlo Maratta he was able to develop a highly personal artistic vocabulary capable of combining Venetian colourism with a Roman-style compositional magniloquence. This beautiful painting depicts the story of King Solomon who, old and prey to the temptations of his young wives, decides to turn his devotion to pagan idols. The intertwining of gestures and faces combined with the colours typically associated with Balestra make this work an interesting example of the artist's maturity.
