Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Canvas as a pictorial support was only reluctantly adopted in Rome and even in the 17th century it was not universally employed. From 1530 until the first decade of the 17th century many altarpieces in Rome were instead painted on stone, especially on slate. The invention of the technique is due to Sebastiano del Piombo (14851547) who employed it in his monumental Nativity of the Virgin for the Chigi Chapel in Santa Maria del Popolo. This book presents a selection of the most significant stone altarpieces in Rome: San Marcello al Corso (Federico Zuccari), S. Maria della Vallicella (Rubens), S. Caterina dei Funari (Girolamo Muziano), San Silvestro al Quirinale (Scipione Pulzone), Santa Maria della Pace (Lavinia Fontana), Santa Maria Maggiore (Girolamo Siciolante) are among the churches included in this guide. AUTHORS: Francesca Cappelletti is the director of the Galleria Borghese in Rome and Professor of Modern Art History at the University of Ferrara.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. An unprecedented accumulation of international loans buttresses this showstopping retrospective of the Baroque master's life and legacyCaravaggio is an Old Master for a modern age. His recent resurgence in popularity owes in no small part to his dramatic compositions, which expose the conflict between salvation and damnation in the souls of each of his subjects, whether biblical saints or streetwise criminals.This exhibition in Rome and its accompanying catalog distinguishes itself through its exceptional loans that reunite and resituate the landmark paintings of Caravaggio's career. Saint Catherine from the Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza and Martha and Mary Magdalene from the Detroit Institute of Arts join the Palazzo Barberini Judith, showcasing Caravaggio's use of the same model on three separate occasions; The Cardsharps from the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth returns to the place where it was long on display; Saint John the Baptist from the Nelson-Atkins Museum in Kansas City and Saint Francis of Assisi in Ecstasy from the Wadsworth Athaneum in Hartford appear together for the first time. These magnificent and unprecedented selections offer insight not only into Caravaggio's evolution as an artist but also his immediate networks and surroundings.Michelangelo Merisi, known as Caravaggio (1571-1610), was born in Milan. His early commissions included works for Cardinal Francesco Maria del Monte and the Contarelli Chapel in San Luigi dei Francesi. From 1600 to 1606 he was considered the most famous painter in Rome. After killing a wealthy young man he fled the city, still painting but on the run as a criminal. He died under mysterious circumstances in 1610.

Paperback. Condición: New. Ovid's Metamorphoses and its lasting impact on visual art The Roman poet Ovid's Metamorphoses is among the most important works of Classical Antiquity, described in the seventeenth century as a 'Bible for artists'. The compelling epic intertwines tales of chaos and the cosmos, encounters between gods, humans and nature, and the countless transformations to which they gave rise. For centuries, artists have drawn inspiration from these highly imaginative accounts of passion, jealousy, cunning and deceit on the part of deities, heroes and ordinary mortals. The stories have been interpreted in marble and paint, and more recently in moving pictures. This book shows the immense influence that Ovid has exerted on the visual arts - from Antiquity to the present day. It presents sculptures by Cellini, Bernini, Rodin and Bourgeois alongside paintings by Titian, Correggio, Caravaggio, Arcimboldo and Rubens. Ovid's myths address universal human feelings, allowing them to speak as powerfully as ever to our imagination. This richly illustrated book, featuring essays by Francesca Cappelletti, Claudia Cieri Via, Bart Ramakers, Frits Scholten and Lucia Simonato, is the living proof. This publication accompanies the exhibitions at the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam (6 February-25 May 2026) and the Galleria Borghese, Rome (22 June-20 September 2026).

Brossura. Condición: new. Roma, Palazzo Barberini, March 7 - July 6, 2025.Edited by Cappelletti F. and Terzaghi M. C.A cura di Francesca Cappelletti, Maria Cristina Terzaghi e Thomas Clement Salomon.English Text.Venezia, 2025; paperback, pp. 256, col. ill., cm 24x29. Il catalogo Caravaggio 2025, edito da Marsilio Arte e curato da Francesca Cappelletti e Maria Cristina Terzaghi, accompagna l'omonima mostra allestita a Palazzo Barberini dalle Gallerie Nazionali d'Arte Antica in collaborazione con Galleria Borghese (7 marzo - 6 luglio 2025), un progetto tra i più importanti e ambiziosi dedicati a Michelangelo Merisi detto Caravaggio (1571-1610). Riunendo alcune delle opere più celebri, l'esposizione vuole offrire una nuova e approfondita riflessione sulla rivoluzione artistica e culturale di Caravaggio, esplorando per la prima volta in un contesto così ampio l'innovazione che introdusse nel panorama culturale, religioso e sociale del suo tempo. Il volume illustra gli snodi biografici e gli sviluppi dello stile dell'artista attraverso saggi redatti da studiosi che, in ambito internazionale, hanno maggiormente lavorato su questi temi. Il catalogo si apre con il saggio di Keith Christiansen che traccia la parabola artistica del grande maestro, mentre i contributi delle due curatrici, Maria Cristina Terzaghi e Francesca Cappelletti, si concentrano sull'arrivo del grande maestro a Roma e sul collezionismo delle sue opere da parte delle grandi famiglie romane. Giuseppe Porzio ripercorre gli anni meridionali dell'artista, tra Napoli, Malta e la Sicilia; Alessandro Zaccuri propone una riflessione sul legame di Caravaggio con la spiritualità del suo tempo; Gianni Papi affronta uno degli argomenti più dibattuti, ovvero la ritrattistica - vera o presunta - del Merisi; Francesca Curti presenta, a partire da documenti d'epoca, le figure femminili ritratte dall'artista; Claudio Strinati e Stefano Causa affrontano un excursus storico delle mostre dedicate a Caravaggio e la sua fortuna critica, a partire dalla famosa mostra di Milano del 1951 che di fatto fa riscoprire l'artista dopo secoli di oblio; chiude Rossella Vodret con un'attenta analisi sulla tecnica esecutiva dell'artista. Le opere in mostra - ventiquattro e tutte di mano del Merisi - vengono analizzate attraverso schede dettagliate e approfondite che danno conto dei principali problemi critici, attributivi e di datazione. L'intero catalogo è illustrato con ricchezza di dettagli e le immagini coprono quasi interamente la produzione del maestro; completa il volume un'ampia bibliografia. Libro.

Brossura. Condición: new. Roma, Galleria Borghese, October 24, 2022 - January 29, 2023.Edited by Cappelletti F. and P. Cavazzini.English Text.Milano, 2022; paperback, pp. 256, 145 col. ill., cm 24x29. Nella Vita dedicata a Sebastiano del Piombo, Giorgio Vasari scrive: [] «ha lavorato sopra le pietre di peregrini, di marmi, di mischi, di porfidi e lastre durissime, nelle quali possono lunghissimo tempo durare le pitture; oltre che cio ha mostrato, come si possa dipingere sopra l'argento, rame, stagno e altri metalli». Nel breve passaggio appare la motivazione attribuita a questo uso innovativo dei materiali: la possibilità di protrarre la vita dell'opera, di renderla, come scriveranno altri autori, «poco meno che eterna». A questo tipo di pittura, ai suoi sviluppi e alle sue implicazioni storiche e semantiche nel corso del Seicento, la Galleria Borghese dedicherà una mostra nell'autunno del 2022. Nel corso del Cinquecento, la discussione sulla durabilità delle opere d'arte si era inserita nel dibattito sul paragone, opponendo i pregi della scultura a quelli della pittura. Il confronto fra le due arti, all'inizio del Seicento, avviene all'interno delle collezioni, nuovi spazi del dibattito storico artistico. Si infittisce il gioco fra le arti sorelle: gli scultori usano marmi colorati e i pittori dipingono su pietra (lavagna, lapislazzuli, pietra paesina, ecc.), mentre metalli e legni preziosi concorrono alla creazione di oggetti straordinari, come piccoli altari, stipi e orologi, dalle forme architettoniche complesse e adorni di sculturine, rilievi e pittura. Alcuni di questi oggetti, nei quali pietra e metalli erano impiegati non solo per la durabilità dei materiali, ma per il loro valore e per la loro stupefacente fattura, la cui bellezza stessa dava il senso di trascendere le epoche, saranno parte della mostra, integrandosi con quelli che facevano parte della collezione di Scipione Borghese, oggi ancora in galleria.
