La composición del dibujo se enmarca en un óvalo. En él se representa en pie a Pandora, apoyada en una caja de forma de urna con la llave en la mano derecha, con la cabeza doblada, pensativa, sobre la mano izquierda. A sus pies, un perro y un amorcillo con una antorcha hacia abajo, apagándola. Iconográficamente se relaciona estrechamente con otro dibujo de la Biblioteca Nacional inscrito también e
Formerly classified as anonymous Italian. The style brings to mind some aspects of Bellini´s pen-and-wash drawings, especially the large, almost grotesque hands with stubby fingers-with only three on the saint´s right hand- which is a particular trait of the artist´s later style.
Maganza´s work belongs to the mainstream of painting in the Veneto during the last years of the sixteenth century and the first decades of the seventeenth. His drawings, especially, reveal the influence of both Antonio Zelotti (1526-1578) and, more importantly, Hans Rottenhammer (1564/65-1625), the German-born painter who established a studio in Venice shortly before 1600, where he resided f
Gabriele Finaldi was the first to point out that the seated pope seems to be Pius V (Ghislieri), the Dominican, pro-Spanish pontiff who reigned from 1566 to 1572. As Cardinal Ghislieri, he held the office of grand inquisitor under the two previous pontiffs, Paul IV and Pius IV. Comparison of the visage and physique of the pope in the drawing with those in the many surviving portraits of Pius V sho
This drawing is after the one of the scenes painted by Polidoro between the windows of second floor of the Palazzo Milesi, Rome.
Dibujo en el que se presenta San Juan Bautista de frente, con las manos juntas y la pierna derecha doblada y apoyada en una roca; en otra, el cordero dormido y en la parte superior Dios Padre (Texto extractado de Mena Marqués, M.: Catálogo de dibujos. VI. Dibujos italianos del siglo XVII, Museo del Prado, 1983, p.160).
Traditionally attributed to Nicolò dell´Abate (c. 1512-1571). In the elegantly classical arrangement of the composition, the drawing shows knowledge of the work of Giuseppe Porta, called Salviati (c. 1520-c.1575), but the handling seems nearer to that of Bernardino India, or a close associate. The figures in the background sport curls of hair that are exactly similar to India´s trademark qu
When the Virgin Mary was three years old her parents, Anna and Joachim, led her to the Temple of Jerusalem. There the young Virgin, without the assistance of her parents, climbed the staircase leading to the priest, who, surrounded by the women of the temple, embraced and blessed her.The episode is contained in the Gospel of James and in the Golden Legend (c.1250). Since the 1960s this drawing has
Florian Harb (2004), was the first to make the convincing suggestion, on stylistic grounds, that this drawing could be by Poccetti.
It looks like an artist from central Italy between the mid to late 16th century.
The Genoese painter Giovanni Battista Gaulli, known as Baciccio, arrived in Rome in 1657, escaping the plague that had devastated his native city and his family. According to his biographer Lione Pascoli, around 1664 the powerful Genoese art dealer Pellegrino Peri introduced Baciccio to Gian Lorenzo Bernini, the prince of the Roman Baroque. This was the beginning of an important working partnershi
The composition shows the following episodes from the first floor of the painted frieze on the facade of the Palazzo Ricci, Rome: Mucius Scaevola crossing the Tiber to take the Etruscan camp of King Lars Porsenna; the killing of the treasurer to Lars Porsenna; the arrest of Mucius Scaevola; and the ordeal by fire of Mucius Scaevola before Lars Porsenna. Another, more damaged copy of this same is i
Traditionally, this work was considered a preparatory sketch for the frescoes on the dome of the collegiate church at La Granja. In 1768 Charles III initiated the decoration of that church, and its dome appears in architect Francesco Sabatini’s drawings with eight spaces designated for pictorial scenes. Spanish painters Mariano Salvador Maella (1739-1819) and Francisco Bayeu y Subías (1734-
Preparatorio para el grupo principal del lienzo pintado en 1634 para el Salón de Reinos del Buen Retiro, hoy en el Museo del Prado (P00858). Los dos generales a caballo son Ambrosio Spínola y Felipe Messia de Guzmán, marqués de Leganés. La presencia del primero ha hecho que en alguna ocasión se interpretase lienzo y dibujo como representación de la Rendición de Breda, por aquel general. (Texto ext
The composition, which I have been unable so far to identify, may have been taken from a print. The inventor of the design was evidently either Venetian or Veronese.
Schiaminossi was a Tuscan engraver and painter and a follower of Raphael (1483-1520) and the Sienese Ventura Salimbeni (1568-before of 1613). The style of this drawing seems however to be Roman, from the circle of the Zuccari, and is somewhat suggestive of that of Avanzino Nucci (1551-1629) and Giovanni Alberti (1558-1601).
Although the present composition is ultimately dependent in origin on Albrecht Dürer´s great woodcut of the Trinity, a Florentine interpretation of the design is evident in the conception of the figure of the dead Christ, which derives from that inMichelangelo´s marble Pieta in Florence Cathedral and not from Dürer´s slender corpse. Further evidence that the Prado drawing could be a Flor
