Giovanni Sottocornola
Interno di Stalla, XIX sec.

1800s

About the Item

Olio su tela. Firmato in basso a sinistra. L'opera è stata precedentemente acquisita all'asta Sotheby's di Milano del 10/12/2007. E' stata esposta nel 1991 nella mostra "Giovanni Sottocornola. Immagini da una collezione" tenuta a Milano presso la Galleria Silbernagl. Dopo una prima fase pittorica dedicata ai ritratti e alle nature morte, Giovanni Sottocornola si avvicinò negli anni Ottanta del XIX secolo ai temi sociali, che stavano diventando i soggetti prediletti dai giovani pittori lombardi attenti agli aspetti più miseri della società, legati all'adozione di tecniche artistiche originali. Il Sottocornola abbracciò la pratica della pittura divisionista, della quale scrisse nel 1895 "Per ora è certo, sono convinto non esservi altra pittura più atta a rendere certe sensazioni che questa". Tale tipo di pittura rimase peraltro nell'artista tutta incentrata sulla luce, sulle sue incerte vibrazioni tonali, come accade nell'Interno di stalla, realizzato verso il finire degli anni Ottanta, ove sono i giochi di luci ed ombre a giocare e creare gli effetti visivi nelle pennellate di colore giocate su poche gamme cromatiche, quelle dei bruni, espresse in un'ampia molteplicità di tonalità. L'opea è presentata in cornice in stile.

  • French 19th Century Oil on Canvas Blue and White Music Allegory Cherub Painting
    Located in Firenze, IT
    This romantic French 19th century allegoric oil painting on square canvas has a sky blue background, a fluffy cloud fills the central part of the painting where a woman is lying down playing the lyre, while a graceful cherub seems to twirl over her. This oil on canvas painting represents the allegory of music - with a woman dressed in classical clothes and a putto- a very popular theme during all the neoclassical age, with its lively scene inspired by the Rococo period. The composition creates a awesome trompe-l'œil effect thanks to the color palette scheme. Well painted white and gray shadings (chiaro scuro) that stands out from the light blue background in typical grisaille style. This painting originally was an over door frieze...
