STILL LIFE - Antonio Celli - Neapolitan School - Italian Oil on Canvas Painting

2002

About the Item

Still life Antonio Celli Italia 2002 Oil on canvas cm. 80x100 n this precious oil on canvas, Antonio Celli is inspired by the paintings of the Neapolitan school of the 17th century, which had as one of the greatest exponents of still life the Master Giovan Battista Ruoppolo, whose style in still life painting was particularly characterised by nuances and dark backgrounds, in some ways similar to some paintings of the same genre by Caravaggio. An undisputed still life artist, Antonio Celli reveals his originality and skilful mastery in this precious composition. This grandiose still life depicts a profusion of grapes, figs, pumpkins and other fruits, lying on a table covered with a white cloth

  • 17 Century Still Life Paolo Castelli Natura Morta Fruit Oil on Canvas Red Green
    By Giovanni Paolo Castelli detto Spadino
    Located in Sanremo, IT
    Oil painting on canvas measuring 50 x 99 cm without frame and 62 x 111 cm with coeval frame, depicting a still life of fruit by the painter Giovanni Paolo Castelli known as Spadino ( Rome 1659 - 1730 ). This magnificent canvas, hitherto unpublished to my knowledge, depicts a display of fruit set out in the open at the edge of a wood (apples, peaches, black and white pizzutella grapes, two split watermelons and a plum), and at the edge of a stream, with a hilly landscape opening up to the left. The fruit is placed in the foreground, very close to the viewer's point of view, and occupies, with its bright and festive colors, most of the field of vision. The painter does not seek a particular spatial geometry or constructive scheme, but indulges in a skilful and brilliant chromatic weaving of the surfaces, by means of a pictorial material applied with exceptional fluidity and vibration, if you like, even sensual in its luminous and 'tactile' corpulence in the taste of the full Baroque. The quality is excellent and the style appears surprisingly free and evocative, although it retains traces of the old Flemish naturalism typical of Roman Baroque still life painting, strongly influenced by the work of Abraham Brueghel, as evidenced, for example, by the tiny drops of visible dew, or the luminous reflections on grapes or the flesh of watermelons. These are all elements that undoubtedly indicate as its author one of the most important specialists of this pictorial genre in late Baroque Rome: Giovanni Paolo Castelli known as Lo Spadino. The painting in fact appears to be entirely typical of the painter's mature work, i.e. towards the end of the 17th or beginning of the 18th century (the chronological collocation is suggested by the similarities with the work of another great contemporary still life specialist, Pietro Navarra...
