About the Item
Frans van de Casteele (Kasteels) called Francesco da Castello (Brussels, ca. 1541 - Rome, 1621)
Adoration of the shepherds
Crowning with thorns
First decade of the 17th century.
Tempera and gold on parchment, 290 x 240 mm (with frame).
Original wooden frame with trimmed silver foil applications; in the corners, medallions with the four evangelists.
The two refined miniatures of the Adoration of the Shepherds and the Crowning with Thorns are works of the artist's full maturity, dating from the first decade of the 17th century, characterized by formal simplification and pure colors in the invoice of the garments that stand out from the eburoral incarnations of the characters.
Among the numerous motifs comparable to those of other miniatures by Francesco da Castello, the small medallions with the Evangelists barely outlined on a golden background, closely recall the miniatures, of reduced dimensions, inserted in the compartments of the frame of the altar with the Mysteries del Rosario, as well as those of another box with compartments with the Tree of Jesse conserved in the Institute of Valencia de Don Juan de Madrid, of which there is another version from an earlier period and of marked Flemish influence with a frame-reliquary currently in the Museum of Fine Arts of Valencia. Furthermore, another version of the Coronation with Thorns, rectangular in shape and slightly weaker in its invoice, was sold at Christie's with the wrong attribution to Giovanni Battista Castello the Genovés, although the miniature must surely be attributed to the “romanized” Flemish master Francesco da Castello .
Thanks to Dña. Elena De Laurentiis Dra. University of Genoa for carrying out the study.
Size: 23,5x28,5 cm. Depth is orientative.
