About the Item

Italian Renaissance Angels Making Music - 16th Century Renaissance Fresco Fragment - Lombardy Italy A detached Renaissance Fresco dating to the early 16th century, depicting three Angels making Music by an unknown 16th Century Lombardian Artist • Frame, ca. 74 x 44 cm • Panel, ca. 23 x 49.5 cm • Fragment, ca 22 x 48 cm Charming fragment, of what was once a larger renaissance fresco mural most likely in a private North Italian / Southern Swiss chapel over five centuries ago. Depicted is a heavenly orchestra, reminiscent of the compositions by Bernardino Luini (1480/83-1532) and Melozzo da Forli (1438-1494) of angels making music. The Angels and instruments are very finely painted with sections of the original gilding remaining. The fresco layer was removed from its wall using the “ Calicot ” also called the “ Strappo method ”, with small fragments of the old lower canvas still visible where plaster is missing and/or what looks like the upper canvas weave impressed on infills. The plaster layer was then laid down on a wood panel. When buildings with frescos would become derelict, be it either through decay, disaster or war (or all together), the frescos were sometimes saved by stripping them off the wall, stored away, never re-mounted and often forgotten. Others would be laid on canvass and skillfully attached to a stretcher, to continue to delight for centuries to come. Now, it is not known to me when the fresco fragment actually was separated from its wall or where that wall actually stood. However the fragment was laid onto a 20th century wood panel (pre/early 1970) and the uneven edges where tidied with dark, coarse plaster. The plywood panel supporting the fresco layer was then mounted on a velvet covered board and framed in heavy gilt oak. Recent Provenance: From about 1970 on, part of private collection Germany -> 2009 through inheritance into a private collection in Switzerland -> 2011, 14th May, Auction Ketterer Kunst (Germany), Lot 43 (catalogued as early 16thC, Lombardy - remained unsold/returned to the owner) -> 2020 acquired by myself.
