About the Item

The painting, oil on canvas 95 x 137 unframed, depicts a bacchanal: on the left we see a figure who, from the detail of the paw seems to be a satyr, intent on raising a bowl forerunner of tastevins while in the center a winged putto leans on a golden pitcher engraved with a gathering moment and a bacchante with a crown of leaves plays the cymbal; on the right side a figure from behind, probably another satyr. The somewhat tarnished expressions characterized by brush strokes that blush the cheeks, the loose and uninhibited poses highlight the altered state of drunkenness. For stylistic reasons it can be associated with Veneto Baroque production, particularly related to Giulio Carpioni's milieu, as can be seen from stringent comparisons of even the details, for example, the wreaths of thin blades of grass.

Rococo painting with frame by 18th-century Venetian school oil on canvas
Located in Florence, IT
The painting (with a Salvador Rosa-style gilded frame 88 x 116 cm) depicts a group of four children who are playing outside on a swinging seesaw; we are probably dealing with a prank, as can be seen by the satisfied expression of the child on the right at the expense of the one in the foreground, who seems to be supported by the others, perhaps because of the fear felt. They are dressed in the same way, with black or brown ankle boots and a kind of double-breasted jumpsuit with a rich lace collar reminiscent of the jabots of dames, blue for the one in the foreground, brick-colored for the other three. Children also look alike in the hair, typical of the period, and features, suggesting a kinship relationship. We find the same subject, for example, in Johann Zoffany...
