'Love lyrics,' a romantic Italian genre painting by Antonio Paoletti
Italian, Late 19th Century
Panel: height 40cm, width 50cm, depth 1cm
Frame: height 59cm, width 69cm, depth 7cm
Depicting a young aristocratic couple on a romantic tryst, in a richly furnished and beautifully painted drawing room, this exceptional Italian genre painting is by the Venetian artist Antonio Ermolao Paoletti (Italian, 1834-1912).
In a marked departure from the large part of his oeuvre, which overwhelmingly consists of charming paintings of children and youngsters playing besides the canals of Venice, in this work Paoletti approaches the style of Arturo Ricci, another Italian painter of the same genre. The decidedly Rococo style, involving a lavish palatial interior and luxuriously dressed young nobles, is nevertheless superbly executed, and the masterful skills of the artist are on full show, from the gilt furnishing to the expressions of the figures in love.
Executed in oil on panel in a carved giltwood frame, signed lower left 'A. Ermolao Paoletti.'

Antonio Ermolao Paoletti
Antonio Ermolao Paoletti (May 8, 1834 in Venice – December 13, 1912 in Venice) was an Italian painter with a focus on Venetian genre scenes, recalling Bamboccianti life of children and women, as well as sacred fresco work for churches in the Veneto. His work was displayed in various exhibitions and cities, including Milan in 1872, where he displayed Ecco come va il vino nelle messe. In 1884, at the Exhibition of Turin: Flowers for the Holy Virgin and Fa' caro al nonno!.

This beautifully composed 19th-century oil painting offers an evocative glimpse into everyday domestic life, centring on a tender moment between a mother and her child. Set at the open window of a period townhouse, the woman gently cradles her toddler, who wears a traditional white cap and a 19th century toddler gown, clutching a small metal rattle. Dressed in refined mid-19th century fashion, the mother wears a vivid orange dress beneath a vibrant pelerine and a pink-ribboned lace cap—indicating her middle-class status and contemporary taste.
