Achille Zo
Female Portrait 19th century
1800s

About the Item

Oil on Canvas. Signed at right, mid-canvas. It is a portrait of a mourning woman, a young widow, as can be inferred, not only from the black dress, but rather from the headdress and especially the cameo with a male portrait, which she wears hanging around her neck. Achille Zo was a French artist (from Bayonne, a Pyrenean town that was culturally influenced by the Basque Country) , who although he stayed repeatedly in Paris and Bordeaux, where he was artistically trained, later made several trips to Spain, both to Madrid (in 1856) and Andalusia (1860) , producing works with historical subjects or Spanish genre scenes for several years. In the late 1960s, he turned instead to Orientalism. Several portraits are also in his production. The painting offered here, in first canvas, is presented in a beautiful coeval frame from the second half of the 19th century.

Gruppo 8 dipinti Eroine dell’antichità, Francesco Conti, XVIII secolo

Located in Milan, IT

Oil on gattice wood in octagon. Il gruppo di otto dipinti in oggetto (figg. 1-8) rappresenta, nel classico formato fiorentino dell’ottagono, una serie di effigi femminili a mezza figura. Più precisamente, si tratta di giovani fanciulle elegantemente vestite, disposte in varie attitudini ma accomunate, ad eccezione di due esemplari sui quali ci soffermeremo in seguito, dall’accento sulla ricchezza, evidenziata sia da particolari di fastose console e drappeggi, sia da collane di perle o tessuti preziosi che le donne talvolta maneggiano, ponendovi così l’accento. Una delle figure porta in testa una corona reale, altre dei turbanti o inconsueti copricapi. Questi dettagli conferiscono ai personaggi un aspetto principesco, talvolta abbinato a richiami orientaleggianti. Una formula che riporta alla mente il caso di un dipinto da poco riscoperto nella sua vera identità, il “Ritratto fino a mezzo busto di Regina Armena” di Mario Balassi, seducente connubio di recuperi alloriani ed elementi di fantasia conservato alle Gallerie degli Uffizi (vedi F. Berti, Da ritratto mediceo di Jacopo Ligozzi...
