To decorate the wall on top of a console or credenza. On top of a fireplace mantel (fireplace). Neapolitan painting of the early seventeenth century is characterized by dramatic expression, emphatic naturalism, and intense chiaroscuro derived from the profound influence of Caravaggio (1571–1610), who spent a number of his later years in the port city. The younger Neapolitan artists were also influenced by the classicism of Guido Reni. Naples Napoli was governed for decades by wealthy Spanish viceroys and the Austrian Hapsburgs. Ribera’s naturalistic style resonated throughout the new work produced by the young Neapolitan painters such as Luca Giordano painting through an amplified sense of color and a particular sensitivity toward light Neoclassicism Romanticism.

  • 18th C. School Jean Baptiste Greuze Peasant Child in a white bonnet antiques LA
    Height: 24 1/2"  Width: 21" 

    18th C. School Jean Baptiste Greuze Peasant Child in a white bonnet antiques LA . This exceptional painting of a peasant child in a white Bonnet is a fine example of the style of Jean Baptiste Greuze, a very well known and respected French painter of the 18th century.

    Although unsigned, this work can be dated to the Greuze period and contains many of the elements which the artist is known for. The painting, if not by the hand of Greuze, is mot definitely by one of his close students. Framed in nicely gilt and decorated wood frame. Documents from the Metropolitan Museum of Art New York.

    The picture of a young peasant is usually referred to as an allegory of "Innocence," traditionally been equated with a sense of innocence, gentleness, patience and humility. With such iconography in the present picture, Greuze thus injects the female sitter with the same characteristics. The depiction of young women tenderly and calmly sitting, insinuating their ability to show tender emotion, relates to the 18th century cult of sensibilité developed by Rousseau and his circle. Greuze's subject thus appears infused with the subtle combination of sexual innocence and emotional depth. Same applied to his circle.

    This type of subject, employing young girls in various emotional states, reached its peak in Greuze's career during the 1780s, thus his circle as well.

    Jean Baptiste Greuze was born at Tournus on Aug. 21, 1725. His early life is undocumented, but he studied painting in Lyons and appeared in Paris around 1750. He entered the Royal Academy as a student and worked with Charles Joseph Natoire, a prominent decorative painter. During the 1760's Greuze achieved a significant reputation with his sentimental paintings of peasants or lower-class people seen in humble surroundings and in the midst of theatrically emotional family situations; examples are The Village Bride (1761), The Father's Curse (1765), and The Prodigal Son (1765).

    In 1769 Greuze was admitted to the academy as a genre painter. Ambitious to become a member of the academy as a history painter, which was a higher rank, he was so angered by his admission as only a genre painter that he refused to show his paintings at the academy's exhibitions (the Salons). However, by that time he was already famous and could afford to ignore the Salons.

    The rising importance of the middle class, and of middle-class morality, also played a part in the success of Greuze's cottage genre. His work seemed to preach the homely virtues of the simple life, a "return to nature," and the honesty of unaffected emotion. The blatant melodrama of his preaching was not found offensive, and visitors to the Salons wept in front of his paintings. The intellectuals of the day were generally opposed to the rococo as a decadent style; rather paradoxically, Greuze's most influential champion was Denis Diderot, one of the leading philosophers of the Enlightenment, who hailed Greuze as "the painter of virtue, the rescuer of corrupted morality." The fashion for simplicity and the "natural man" penetrated the highest circles, and engravings of Greuze's work were popular with all classes of society.

     

    In terms of style, Greuze has been linked to neoclassicism. The complexity of his compositions, however, and his interest in surface textures place him within the general stylistic pattern of his period. In his sensual paintings of girls (such as The Morning Prayer and The Milkmaid), with their veiled eroticism, pale colors, and soft tonality, his connection with the rococo is most evident. Some of Greuze's best work is to be seen in his portraits (for example, Étienne Jeaurat), which are often sensitive and direct. Greuze survived the French Revolution but his fame did not. He died in Paris on March 21, 1805, in poverty and obscurity.

Alessandro di Cristofano di Lorenzo del Bronzino Allori (Florence, 31 May 1535 – 22 September 1607) was an Italian painter of the late Mannerist Florentine school. In 1540, after the death of his father, Allori was brought up and trained in art by a close friend, often referred to as his 'uncle', the mannerist painter Agnolo Bronzino, whose name he sometimes assumed in his pictures.

    This incredible Artwork painting would be beautiful addition to collectors or to decorate a law office a library , Hallway , Living room a man's room or as a great elegant gift idea for an office space and house warming . Antique dealer West Hollywood Melrose Ave La Cienega Blvd . On top of a dresser a semainier a secretaire or in the background of your desk , this outstanding painting with the hand carved wood gilt frame will be the touch of old world adding the charm history and elegance to your decore .

    This beautiful portrait of a gentleman is very versatile and can go with any design, rustic farm , elegant space , formal setting , modern or old world European charm . overall good shape, recanvassing so many of the wonderful Art

    In the prime of his career, Allori headed one of the "two most important workshops in Florence in the second half of the 16th century" (the other being headed by Santi di Tito). He served as First Consul of the Accademia del Disegno in 1573, and was made head of the Arazzeria Medicea, Florence's state-owned tapestry workshop, in 1581. Allori also worked, under the guidance of Giorgio Vasari, among the team of artists who decorated the Studiolo of Francesco I. He contributed two painted panels, depicting a Banquet of Cleopatra and a landscape with figures diving for pearls.

    The cold and polished appearance of his painted figures makes them resemble statues as much as living beings. The art historian Simona Lecchini Giovannoni is more positive, remarking that Allori lends life and immediacy to his paintings through his minute and realistic depictions of vegetal motifs (especially flowers), household articles, and textiles of all kinds; the "grandiose, introverted figures" are thus enabled to "approach the spectator, not with dialogue and sentiment, but through the tangible evidence of objects and details"

    Among his collaborators was Giovanni Maria Butteri and his main pupil was Giovanni Bizzelli. Cristofano dell'Altissimo  Cesare Dandini Aurelio Lomi John Mosnier, Alessandro Pieroni, Giovanni Battista Vanni, and Monanni also were his pupils. He was the father of the painter Cristofano Allori (1577–1621).

    In some ways, Allori is the last of the line of prominent Florentine painters, of generally undiluted Tuscan artistic heritage: Andrea del Sarto worked with Fra Bartolomeo (as well as Leonardo da Vinci), Pontormo briefly worked under Andrea, and trained Bronzino, who trained Allori. Subsequent generations in the city would be strongly influenced by the tide of Baroque styles pre-eminent in other parts of Italy.
