About the Item
Scuola di Anversa
Attribuito a Gerard Thomas
(Anversa 1663-1720)
Lo studio del medico
Gerard Thomas è un pittore fiammingo di epoca tardo barocca. Apprendista nel 1688, due volte decano della corporazione (nel 1695 e nel 1706). Intorno al 1700 si specializza nella pittura d'interni, ispirandosi alle opere di David Teniers e alle vedute di interni degli studi di artisti, alchimisti, speziali, geografi e filosofi. Questo tema è influenzato dalla tradizione dei gabinetti amatoriali di Anversa, una sorta di museo privato dei ricchi mercanti fiamminghi. Studia anche come alchimista, e questo interesse lo ispirerà a realizzare alcune delle sue opere più notevoli.
Mentre i suoi predecessori preferivano inquadrature più o meno ravvicinate, per privilegiare le figure piuttosto che gli ambienti, Thomas distanzia il punto di vista attribuendo grande importanza all'ambiente e soprattutto ai numerosissimi oggetti in esso contenuti, dipinti di grande ricchezza di dettaglio, dall'immancabile prezioso mappamondo, quasi la sua firma, alla comune scopa, dai vasi in terracotta smaltata alle lampadine in vetro, dagli alambicchi agli antichi volumi rilegati in pergamena, passando per utensili e i più svariati contenitori di uso quotidiano. Sono stati studiati gli effetti della luce su diversi materiali, vetro, rame, argento, peltro...
I suoi soggetti furono spesso fraintesi, semplificati dal riduttivo appellativo di "ciarlatano" o "alchimista". In realtà nei suoi dipinti si utilizzano spesso vere e proprie cliniche in cui il medico, con apprendisti e aiutanti, esercitava il suo mestiere, raffigurate con grande realismo e precisione.
Non è un caso che alcuni suoi dipinti facciano parte della collezione di Sir Henry Wellcome (1853-1936), magnate farmaceutico britannico e fondatore della Wellcome Foundation, appassionato collezionista di oggetti legati alle scienze della medicina, nonché all'arte e alla guarigione. nei secoli.
Il nostro dipinto appartiene proprio al filone medico. Molti elementi portano a pensare che si tratti effettivamente di un test di gravidanza: al centro della scena vediamo un medico, ansioso di osservare in trasparenza il liquido contenuto in un'ampolla di vetro. Accanto a lui, una donna, accompagnata dalla figlia, attende con impazienza la risposta.
Il dipinto è accompagnato dalla perizia dello storico dell'arte prof. Massimo Pirondini, esperto di pittura del XVII e XVIII secolo. In cornice in legno dorato e laccato del XVIII secolo italiano.
