Old Masters Art

OLD MASTERS

Encompassing centuries of change in Europe between 1300 and 1800, from booms of prosperity to bloody revolutions, Old Masters describes a wide range of artists. The informal term was derived from the title of an artist who trained in a guild long enough to become a master, such as Leonardo da Vinci, who studied in a Florence painters’ guild. However, Old Masters paintings, prints and other art is now used to refer to work made by any artist with a high level of skill in painting, drawing, sculpture or printmaking who worked during this era.

The 15th century’s expansive trade and commerce spread culture across borders. A vibrant period of art emerged, bolstered by studies of anatomy and nature that influenced a new visual realism. From Raphael and Michelangelo in the Renaissance to Rembrandt van Rijn and Johannes Vermeer in the Dutch Golden Age, artists expressed emotion, naturalism, color and light in new ways. El Greco and Paolo Veronese were leaders in the dramatic style of Mannerism, while Caravaggio and Peter Paul Rubens demonstrated the movement and meticulous detail of Baroque art.

Historically, most attention was concentrated on male artists, but recent research and exhibitions have elevated the impactful work of women such as Rachel Ruysch and Artemisia Gentileschi. In late-18th-century France, female artists like Adélaïde Labille-Guiard and Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun were prominent names. Nevertheless, access to the academies and guilds was highly restricted for women, and even those able to establish practices were expected to adhere to portraits and still lifes rather than the grand history paintings being created by men.

Pianta di Roma e del Campo Marzo - Etching by G.B. Piranesi - 1774
Located in Roma, IT
Pianta di Roma e del Campo Marzo is a very big dimensions etching and burin with fresh impression on paper, realized around 1774 by Giovan Battista Piranesi. It is realized on three joined sheets of thick laid paper. In very good condition except for some signs of the time and a usual and diffused yellowing of the paper and usual folds of the paper. Engraved title in Italian: (Plan of Rome and the Campus Martius). Dedication: To Clement XIIII Pontifex Maximus Patron of the Fine Arts, G.B. Piranesi Architect. The plates are still preserved at the Calcografia dell’Istituto Nazionale per la Grafica in Rome, in the order specified by the Calcographie Piranesi in the Paris editions, following the first title page of Tomo I of the Vedute di Roma, marked by the numbers 683-685. The dating The dating of the work is complex: In the 1792 the Francesco Piranesi's catalog, son of the author, assigned the artwork to 1778, a date which, although very late - the author dies. Really on November 9 of that year - is accepted by Focillon and Hind. This dating, however, is certainly based on an error, because in the Warning at the top of the map, the author refers to the "approval" that designed to show the Sanctity of N. Mister Pope CLEMENT XIV happily reigning", for which the work can not be later than 1774. In support of this dating, it is a sample of the Catalog of Works, described by Scott, which contains three handwritten entries for three Views of Rome dating back to 1774, and indicates that the map was already available. Thus the most likely date for this plan is c. 1774, on the basis of the dedication to the ruling pope, who died in September that year, and because it is mentioned for the first time in a state of the Catalogo inciso, itself datable to 1774, as being included in the collection of the Vedute di Roma. The numbers positioned in front of the monuments in the 4 columns of indices under the plan refer to the main sites illustrated in the Antichità Romane, Della Magnificenza, Campo Marzio. "Plan of Rome and Campo Marzo" The "Plan of Rome and Campo Marzo" belongs to the peak of Piranesi's career. Born from the need to offer a reference plant that accompanied the more than 100 tables...
