About the Item
The deposition of Atala
Follower of Anne-Louis Girodet de Roussy-Trioson (Montargis, 1767 - Paris, 1824)
19th-20th century
Oil on canvas
47 x 65 cm. - Framed 67 x 84 cm
The proposed painting is inspired by the painting 'Atala at the sepulchre', a pivotal work of the French pre-romantic current, which unites in the same canvas the themes of sacrifice and death in a moving scene, by the painter Anne-Louis Girodet de Roussy-Trioson.
A favourite pupil of Jean-Louis David, from whom he inherited a formal neoclassical language, he presented this painting, considered to be among his best creations, at the Paris Salon in 1808, and today it is exhibited in the Louvre Museum.
The Entombment of Atala
1808
Oil on canvas, 207 x 267 cm
Musée du Louvre, Paris
The subject is taken from the novel by François-René de Chateaubriand - a writer considered to be the founder of French literary Romanticism - which tells of the unhappy and ill-fated love of Chactas, a young indigenous man, for the daughter of a Spaniard and an Indian convert to Christianity, the beautiful Atala.
Here the indigenous warrior Chactas weeps clutching the legs of his beloved, the Native American convert to Christianity Atala, who belongs to a rival tribe. Although the two have managed to flee their respective families in pursuit of their love, Atala is bound from birth by a vow of chastity, and prefers to ingest poison, which soon leads to her death, in order not to give in to the temptation of love for Chactas.

Located in Riva del Garda, IT
Attributed to Juan Bautista Martínez del Mazo (Castile 1611 - Madrid 1667) pupil and collaborator of Diego Velázquez
Portrait of Charles II, King of Spain, as a child (1661 -1700)
Spain, c. 1670 Oil on canvas 68 x 49 cm. - In antique frame 96 x 75 cm.
The analysis of this portrait, and in particular the style with which its features have been outlined, brings us back to the great tradition of the 17th century Spanish school.
The portrait depicts the young King Charles II of Spain, dressed in typical Spanish fashion, the youngest and only son of Philip IV of Spain and his second wife Maria Anna of Austria, as well as the last of the Habsburg dynasty to rule Spain. which portrayed the young ruler in full length at the age of four (dated 1665), dressed in a black suit and cape, and a large feathered...

Holy Family St John Scarsella Paint 17th Century Oil on table Old master Italy
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
Ippolito Scarsella, known as Lo Scarsellino (Ferrara, c. 1550 - 1620) workshop
Holy Family with the Infant St John
oil on arched panel 46 x 29 cm.
in a small temple frame 75 x 55 cm
This interesting work shows us one of the most sought-after iconographic subjects in the Christian tradition, presented here according to an ancient and proven scheme. We see the Virgin, majestic, in the centre of the scene while holding a chubby child, who is offering a small bird to the young St John (tradition has it that it is a goldfinch, one of the symbols of the passion of Christ) to be caressed.
Completing the Holy Family, we can see Saint Joseph in the shadows, apart from the loving everyday scene depicted in the foreground, calmly leaning on his walking stick.
Regarding the stylistic characteristics of this small panel, it is easy to recognise the influence of 16th and 17th century Emilian painting, which leads us to confirm its traditional attribution to Ippolito Scarsella (circa 1550 - 1620) from Ferrara, undoubtedly one of the most important artists of this pictorial context. It could very well be a trial sketch...
