About the Item

Painting oil on canvas depicting an architectural capriccio measuring 133 x 99 cm without frame and 141 x 107 with frame of the painter Alberto Carlieri (Rome 1672-1719) . This impressive architectural capriccio consists of the remains of an ancient Roman temple on smooth columns with composite capitals and fluted pilasters, framed diagonally to the left, leaving space ahead on the side opposite an arch in whose light a landscape or landscape is stretched, with the bizarre presence of two pyramids still sketched out and one, more distant, perfectly Eaves. In the foreground in the center there is a group of 4 Turks: two women sitting on the ground in a specular position and another in conversation with a man with a rich red turban. An inventive fantasy that pursues an architectural scheme that is found in many of the works of that great master who responds to the name of Alberto Carlieri to which the figurative imprint of these characters is perfectly reconnected. It is a work of the mature age of the painter, when this pleasant specialist in the field, certainly the most prolific in Rome in the decades between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, had turned to eminently decorative purposes abandoning that perspective rigor that had characterized his beginnings in the footsteps of Viviano Codazzi and Giovanni Ghisolfi. This great painter is a significant figure in the evolution of this pictorial genre during the second half of the seventeenth century with possible mutual relations with the young Pannini. However there is no doubt that Carlieri played a validly active role in this particular iconographic strand, for the modern direction he pursued with decisive anticipations as well as on Pannini, also on specialists of a later generation such as Joli and Battaglioli.
