Consalvo Carelli Art

Italian, 1818-1900
Consalvo Carelli (Naples, March 29, 1818 - Naples, December 2, 1900) was an Italian painter who was active in the 19th century. Consalvo Carelli is a Neapolitan painter of vedute belonging to the Scuola di Posillipo. Consalvo Carelli is the son of Raffaele Carelli (1795 - 1864), brother of Gabriele Carelli (1820 - 1900) and father Giuseppe Carelli (1858 - 1921) all painters. He received his first rudiments of painting from his father, then from the Scottish William Leicht. He exhibited for the first time at only twelve years old at the exhibition of the Museo Borbonico in Naples. He won a second class silver medal there in 1833 (he was fifteen) for a painting entitled Piazza della Vicaria, purchased by the Queen. Two years later, he won a first-class silver medal. He quickly made himself known on the Neapolitan artistic scene and benefited from the protection of powerful families, such as the Goerace and Meuricoffre, or the Count of Montesantangelo. In 1837, he sold two paintings to the king, now kept in the royal palace: a View of Naples with the Powder Tower and a View of Cava. He then moved to Rome where he painted landscapes of the Roman countryside, genre scenes of popular life, as well as panoramas of his native town, either using the technique of oil tempera or watercolour. After four years, he returned to Naples, where he exhibited paintings from his Roman period at the Borbonica. He then moved to Paris where he won a gold medal at the Salon international des arts for three years in a row, from 1842 to 1844. He settled again in Naples in 1844 and took part in all the important exhibitions of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts where he presented landscapes of Naples, Palermo or Rome, pastorals and peasant scenes. In 1845, the Russian ambassador in Naples commissioned from him on behalf of Emperor Nicolas I two large canvases representing Naples from the royal gardens of the Porticoes and Naples seen from the convent of the Camaldolese; these works are now in the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg. Carelli during his stay in Rome met Massimo d'Azeglio and took part in the Battle of Volturno in 1860. At the same time, he also met Alexandre Dumas, whose book De Naples à Rome he illustrated. He also illustrated an album on brigandage which is currently in the Royal Library of Turin. He gave painting lessons to Queen Marguerite and in 1866 was made a member of the Academy of Saint Luke.

Located in Genève, GE

Dimensions with frame: 28,3 x 37 x 4 cm Signed and titled "C. Carelli Napoli" in the lower right corner. A closely related companion painting by the same artist—depicting a similar view of the Bay of Naples under different atmospheric conditions and of identical dimensions—is also currently available, offering the opportunity to acquire a rare and decorative pair. This charming and atmospheric landscape depicts a lively scene along the Bay of Naples with the majestic Mount Vesuvius rising in the background. The composition captures the vibrant character of southern Italy, where daily life unfolds along the waterfront beneath the iconic volcano. In the foreground, a bustling open-air market is sheltered beneath large canvas awnings supported by wooden poles. Groups of figures gather around tables, creating a sense of activity and local color. Their lively gestures and varied attire animate the scene, suggesting a moment of social exchange and commerce. Beyond the market, the calm waters of the bay reflect the warm tones of the sky. Small fishing boats and rowboats glide across the harbor, guiding the eye toward the distant shoreline where the city of Naples stretches along the coast. Dominating the horizon, Mount Vesuvius releases a delicate plume of smoke, adding both drama and authenticity to this classic Neapolitan view. The artist skillfully balances narrative detail with atmospheric landscape painting. Warm sunlight illuminates the architecture and shoreline, while soft clouds diffuse the sky, enhancing the depth and tranquility of the scene. The painting reflects the tradition of 19th- and early 20th-century Italian veduta and tourist paintings, highly sought after for their romantic depictions of historic Italian landscapes. This evocative work would make a wonderful addition to collections of Italian landscape painting, Grand Tour subjects, or historic views of Naples and Mount Vesuvius.

Dimensions with frame: 28,3 x 37 x 4 cm Signed and titled "C. Carelli Napoli" in the lower left corner. A closely related companion painting by the same artist, depicting a similar view of the Bay of Naples under different atmospheric conditions and of identical dimensions, is also currently available, offering the opportunity to acquire a rare and decorative pair. This lively maritime scene depicts traditional fishing boats resting on the calm waters of the Bay of Naples, with the unmistakable silhouette of Mount Vesuvius rising in the distance. Executed with vibrant brushwork and a refined sense of atmosphere, the composition beautifully captures the daily life and maritime character of southern Italy. Overhead, a dramatic, cloud-laden sky gathers above the bay, its heavy formations creating a slightly ominous mood that contrasts with the stillness of the water and adds a striking sense of tension and atmosphere to the scene. In the foreground, several fishermen gather aboard wooden boats loaded with fishing nets and equipment. Their colorful garments add touches of red, green, and ochre that animate the composition, while the large sail of the central vessel creates a striking visual anchor. The quiet water reflects both the boats and the warm light of the sky, enhancing the painting’s sense of serenity. Beyond the fishing activity, Mount Vesuvius dominates the horizon, releasing a faint plume of smoke that adds drama and authenticity to this classic Neapolitan view. The contrast between the dark volcanic slopes and the luminous sea creates depth and visual balance throughout the scene. The painting reflects the rich tradition of 19th- and early 20th-century Neapolitan marine painting, celebrated for its picturesque depictions of coastal life and iconic views of the Bay of Naples. This atmospheric work would make an excellent addition to collections of Italian marine painting, Grand Tour subjects, or historic views of Naples and Mount Vesuvius.

Till the Clouds Roll By 1945 Frank Sinatra Mid Century Modern Hollywood Film WPA TILL THE COULDS ROLL BY (Film Set), oil on canvas, 20 x 24 inches signed “Richard Whorf” lower right and signed and dated on the verso “R. Whorf/ Dec. 21, 1945. Frame by Hendenryk. ABOUT THE PAINTING This painting is from the collection of Barbara and Frank Sinatra, dated December 21, 1945 (just nine days after Frank Sinatra’s 30th birthday), and depicts the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Culver City backlot during the filming of Till the Clouds Roll By, the direction of the film having been taking over by Richard Whorf in December 1945. It is not presently clear if Whorf gave the Sinatras this painting as a gift, as the presence of the Dalzell Hatfield Galleries label on the verso indicates the painting may have been sourced there. Frank and Nancy Sinatra acquired a number of works from Dalzell Hatfield Galleries during the 1940’s, or perhaps they framed it for the couple. Sinatra performed “Old Man River’ in the film. Sinatra and June Allyson are depicted in the center of the painting. PROVENANCE From the Estate of Mrs. Nancy Sinatra; Dalzell Hatfield Galleries, Ambassador Hotel, Los Angeles. An image of the Dalzell Hatfield label and the back of the original frame (which we replaced with a stunning Heydenrk frame) are attached. Nancy Sinatra was Fran's first wife. Nancy Rose Barbato was 17 years old when she met Frank Sinatra, an 18-year-old singer from Hoboken, on the Jersey Shore in the summer of 1934. They married in 1939 at Our Lady of Sorrows Church in Jersey City where Frank gave Nancy a recording of a song dedicated to her titled "Our Love" as a wedding present. The young newlyweds lived and worked in New Jersey, where Frank worked as an unknown singing waiter and master of ceremonies at the Rustic Cabin while Nancy worked as a secretary at the American Type Founders. His musical career took off after singing with big band leaders Harry James and Tommy Dorsey...

"Concert" Early 20th Century WPA Modernism American City Landscape Scene Ashcan The size of the canvas 28 3/4 x 43 1/4 inches. The painting comes directly from the artist's estate. It is signed lower right as well as signed, titled and dated verso. We have available more than two dozen paintings and works on paper from the 1930s - 80s that come directly from the Loew estate. BIO Michael Loew (1907 – 1985) was the son of a New York City baker. After high school, he was an apprentice to a stained-glass maker, and from 1926-1929, he studied at the Art Students League. In 1929, he traveled to Paris, North Africa, Germany, and Italy with a group of artists. When he returned to New York City in 1931, the Great Depression hit Loew unexpectedly, and for the next two years he paid his apartment rent with his paintings. In 1935, he found work with the WPA where he painted murals and partnered up with longtime friend Willem de Kooning in 1939 on a mural for the Hall of Pharmacy at the New York World’s Fair. Their friendship lasted for the rest of their lives. In the mid-30’s he painted in Mexico and the Yucatán documenting the construction of a U.S. Naval airbase on Tinian Island. It was from this airbase that the Enola...
