GOUACHE NAPLES MARINE - Italian landscape gouache

About the Item

Gouache Nealopitane Marine, Italy, 2011, cm.22x33. Lacquered wooden frame. Delicious gouache made in 2011 by an unknown artist, using the method of the ancient masters of the landscape. Gouache paint is a non-permanent, water-based, opaque and opaque paint made opaque with the addition of a chalky white pigment. Invented in Europe in 500, it was initially used to carry out preliminary sketches of large oil works. It is characterized by a great ease of drafting and a lively color rendering, but it requires great skill, certainty in drawing and an extreme speed of execution, as it dries quickly and cannot be retouched. Precisely these characteristics give a particular liveliness and freshness to the works, characterized by light and opaque tones, very different from the glossy compactness of egg tempera and the transparency of the oil. Widely used in canvas paintings and miniatures. The technique was often used by landscape painters, such as Xavier Della Gatta, Pietro Fabris, Alessandro d'Anna, Salvatore Fergola (authoritative exponent of the Posillipo school, much appreciated by the Bourbon court) in the eighteenth century, and Camillo De Vito, Gaspare Vinci , Achille Vespa, Gustavo Scoppa in the nineteenth century. Among the Flemish, English and French artists we find Pierre Jacques Volaire, author of very refined gouaches, and Hackert, German painter and engraver, companion of Goethe's trip to Italy. In the eighteenth century it reaches wide diffusion in Europe, especially in France.
