Antonio RandaClassicist, Juno and King Aeolus at the Cave of Windscirca 1620
circa 1620
About the Item
The painting Juno and King Aeolus at the Cave of Winds by Randa depicts a dramatic scene from Greco-Roman mythology. It portrays Juno, the queen of the gods, visiting Aeolus, the ruler of the winds, within his cavernous domain. Juno, draped in regal attire with an expression of commanding authority, gestures forcefully, emphasizing her divine power. Opposite her, King Aeolus sits bare-chested, his gesture suggesting hesitation or submission as he listens to her request. The interaction likely references the moment Juno persuades Aeolus to unleash the winds to disrupt Aeneas’ journey, a key event in Virgil’s Aeneid. The rich colors, intricate details of their garments, and the tension between the figures bring this mythological moment vividly to life.

Three Angels
By Domenico Piola the Elder
Located in New York, NY
Provenance:
Robert L. and Bertina Suida Manning, New York, until 1996
Private Collection, USA
One of the leading artists in Genoa during the second half of the seventeenth century, Domenico Piola came from a successful family of artists, renowned for their many illusionistic ceiling programs throughout Genoese churches and palaces. A prolific draughtsman and painter, Domenico oversaw an extremely productive studio. In addition to his collaborations with numerous other artists, Domenico also provided many designs for book illustrations and prints that circulated throughout Europe, earning him international exposure and high acclaim in his own day.
As Dr. Anna Orlando has indicated (written communication), the present work is an early work by Piola, datable from the late 1640s. At this time the young artist came strongly under the influence of Castiglione and Valerio Castello, while admiring the works of Giulio Cesare Procaccini. Piola’s works from this period are exuberant and fluid, and the artist’s love of portraying children is evident from the angels and putti that populate both his altarpieces and more intimate paintings.
The present work depicts three angels...
