About the Item
I. Reneman (Netherlands, active in the second half of the 18th century)
Parrot with cherubs and flowers
Oil on canvas, 100.5 x 84.5 cm
Signed on the base “I. Reneman fecit "
The painting depicts a still life of vivid splendor: within a niche there is a marble sculpture with cherubs and a rooster around which, with extreme grace, plant racemes with violets intersect, following the trend of the arms of the two children. striped tulips, red carnations and various species of roses. Small butterflies fly and rest on the flowers. An elegant parrot then rests next to the base, holding a claw resting on a pomegranate fruit and turning its head back towards the statues. The warning gesture of the standing child, who reaches out towards the bird with his arm pointing upwards, seems to be aimed at the animal, caught in the act while stealing the grains of the fruit with its paws, giving proof of the pictorial inspiration of the artist who infuses the canvas with realism and liveliness. Even the lying putto turns his gaze to the animal, but in a much more placid and almost disinterested attitude than his companion. The pictorial touch and the use of bright colors for the rendering of the flowers, from the intense violet of the violets to the carmine red of the carnations and the pastel shades of the roses, lights up the composition and makes it extremely real and alive. In particular, we note the contrast with the glossy patina that covers the marble sculpture, capable of reflecting the ray of light coming from above and emphasizing the fleshy bodies of the two plump children, the flowers and fruits on the base. Finally, the insertion of the parrot, with the brightly colored mantle, contrasts with the static nature of the two sculptures.

The signature on the base bears the writing “I. Reneman fecit ”, Dutch painter active, according to genealogical sources, around 1772.

18th Century Cherub Head Sketch Painting Oil on Canvas
Located in Milan, IT
Venetian school, 18th century
Study with the head of a cherub
Measures: Oil on canvas, 45.5 x 41 cm - with frame 54.5 x 49.5 cm
The present qualifies as a study or preparatory sketch by virtue of the structural and figural layout; by reason of formal and substantial evidence, it can be traced back to the mature neo-Venetian style, which in the eighteenth century had begun to produce figurations of extreme typological pathetism and formal expressionism. The contemporary painting experience of Tiepolo commanded the Venetian art scene, once the lesson of Pier Francesco Mola (1612-1666) was overruled.
The delicate putto head offered here, in which a cherub is recognizable due to the happy iconographic solution of the wings placed under the angel's face, is outlined with a vigorous vitalism. A foreshortened point of view illuminates his face in a grazing way, probing his features with strong shadows and with a youthful blush that orange his cheeks. The veristic perfection with which the artist arranges the semblant is of marvelous expressiveness. The eyes are swollen with intensity, and together with the general setting of the head they denounce a conscious reflection on the physiognomy, peculiar within the emerging context of Venetian painting.
The painting in question is affected by the large-scale productions, both monumental and perspective, at the time in vogue in the territory of the Serenissima. Conceived through a vision from below, the portrait reveals from the Venetian Rococo that particular predilection for the open and clear, airy ways, denounced in the first instance by Tiepolo. The conscious detachment from the Cortona-style decorativism and from the repeated layout solutions then in vogue allow us to approach the present to the production of Francesco Fontebasso...
