San Pietro by Giovanni Battista Piazzetta’s follower, Venice 18th Century

About the Item

San Pietro by Giovanni Battista Piazzetta’s follower – Venice XVIII century The painting is a very-well executed replica of the famous original by Giovanni Battista Piazzetta, which was also reproduced by Marco Alvise Pitteri in his prints series “Dodici Apostoli con il Padre Eterno, Cristo, Maria Vergine e San Paolo”. Saint Peter is among Piazzetta’s most famous subjects in his artistic production. Saint Peter is here represented in an almost-frontal position with his glaze directed upwards.

  • 19th Century Head of St. Peter Painting Oil on Canvas by Follower of Piazzetta
    By Giovanni Battista Piazzetta
    Located in Milan, IT
    Follower of Giambattista Valentino Piazzetta (Venice, 1682 - there, 1754) Head of St. Peter Oil on canvas applied on cardboard, 36.5 x 34.5 cm With frame 42.5 x 41 cm The claves Regni Coelorum, an essential Petrine attribute, shyly peek out in this painting, with the sole purpose of allowing the character to be recognized. The wholeness of attention is indeed conveyed to the Saint, from aching humanity and divine inspiration. Pietro is rendered with a liquid epidermis, illuminated by a pearly light that slips and drips to define the overbearing nose, cheekbones and browbone; while the vitreous humor of the eye turns bright to the sky, to investigate the highest wills of the divine mystery. The portrait, rendered here in intense monochrome, denounces the direct dependence of the present artist on the suggestions of Giambattista (Valentino) Piazzetta, one of the greatest among the eighteenth-century Venetian masters. Following an immature apprenticeship in the field of wood carving with his father Jacopo, a sculptor from Pederobba, in the Treviso area, Piazzetta retired to the workshop of Antonio Molinari...
