SECTION 2: Masterworks etc Listed Painter by Painter A-C

Priority has been given to oils, frescos & watercolours.   However works in other media were included where they were particularly significant.   Watercolours were sometimes ignored where lists would have otherwise been excessively long & the artist was not a specialist in this type of painting.   Works in private collections were ignored unless they were especially important.   However stately homes were regarded as being in the public domain.    NB all towns where no country is mentioned are in Europe.

Work on this Section is being suspended, & when resumed will only be extended to major artists.   However, readers will often be able to discover the most significant works of an artist in whom they are interested by going to Section 1 & clicking on works that are preceded the words as in & have their titles in blue type.  (If the reader is interested in artworks that are particularly notable irrespective of artist these can be found subject by subject by going to Section 3 & clicking on the appropriate box in LIST/INDEX.)

altobello:    

Flight into Egypt, c1517 (Cremona cathedral).   This & the Massacre are remarkable works characterised by pervasive energy & propulsive rhythms combined with ornamental power & expressive sense.   However, the subsequent images are increasingly conservative  Freedberg p252

Massacre of the Innocents, 1517 (Cremona Cathedral)

Christ on the Road to Emmaus, c1518 (NG).   This is another backward looking work Freedberg p252

Triptych from Torre dei Picenardi, c1620 (NG Arts & Ashmoleun Museum).   This is once again a work of distinction.   The threads of light instil the quiet forms with power & a shimmering illumination suffuses the colours Freedberg p253.

Annunciation, c1535 (Isola Dovarese, church).   Here we see a Mannerist influence Freedberg p253

 The Flute Player, 1838 (Belvedere)

amigoni:

Venus & Adonis (Academy, Venice)

Farinelli with a Group of Friends (NG of Victorian, Melbourne).   Farinelli was Amigoni’s castrato friend.    This is unique for its period & unrepeated in Venice because it shows friends as ordinary beings, not the usual Venetian impersonal portraits of rank Levey1959 pp 147-8

Madonna of Humility, 1433 (Pinacoteca Nazionale).   This is his masterpiece & a highpoint of 15th century Sienese painting.   It is a beautifully balanced composition with refined expression & broad cultural references in its synthesis of Uccelo, Masaccio, Donatello & Luca della Robbia.   The extraordinary range of greens, pinks & blues shows a Sienese sense of colour heightened by a clear light Grove9 p94, Murrays1963 p119

St Mark Preaching at Alexandria, 1507 (Brera).   [Although it is huge, it is held together by the wings of the mosque etc & is spelendidly composed.]

P bellini, giovanni:

St Gerome in the Wilderness (Barber Institute, University of Birmingham).   One of his first independent works Grove3 p661

Crucifixion (Correr, Venice).   This glitters with light; analogy between religious subject & mood of landscape where the beauty of creation reflects the Creator Steer p51

Virgin & Child (Lehman & Davis pictures), early 1660s (MET).   These are among the earliest of his magnificent half-length Madonnas.   Both show a grandeur of conception & spiritul depth that signal his artistic maturity  Grove3 p661

Agony in the Garden, c1460 (NG).   This is derived from a drawing in Jacopo’s sketchbook.   It has a lyrical & spacious landscape contrasing with Mantegna’s work (same title & date) OxDicArt.   Though Bellini’s picture is also linear he makes light pivotal by choosing moment when the plain is in shadow but the rising sun strikes the hilltops Clark1949 p40, Steer p50.   This first known evocation of dawn in Italian art suggests the salvation that will succeed the Agony Grove3 p661

  1. Christopher from altar polyptych, c1466 (S. Giovanni e Paol, Venice)

Pieta, tempera, later 1460s (Briera).   An outstanding example of his emotionally charged Passion pictures.   Note the way in which the half-length format brings the specator close to the figures & the cold landscape & steely sky Grove3 p661

Coronation of the Virgin, probably before 1475 (Museo Civica, Pesaro).   Here the figures have a new three dimensional aspect, although his later work makes the figures seem wooden Grove3 pp 662-3

Madonna & Child, c1475 (Accademia).   [She has a pure, simple & sad face.    The light & gentle colours provide unity.   This work must have been echoed in a thousand kitch versions, but Bellini’s painting has freshness & sincerity.]

St Francis in the Wilderness, after 1475 (Frick) Clark1949 p53

Virgin & Child Enthroned, Three Musician Angels & Saints Francis, John the Baptist, Job, Dominic, Sebastain & Louis/St Giobbe Altarpiece, c1480-5 (Accademia).   The combination of a pyramidal figure group in a tall arched structure became a model for Venetian altarpieces Grove3 p663.   Mary expresses the dogma of Immaculate Conception, which was at the time being resisted by the Dominicans.    Hence Dominic is shown not looking at Mary but deep in a book gaining necessary instruction GG&C p17.   In this work the Mantegna-like linearity has largely disappeared & is replaced by the more fluent modelling of St Sebastian Grove3 p663

St. Francis in Ecstasy, c1480 (Frick Collection, New York)

St. Job Altarpiece, 1480 (Galleria dell’Accademia, Venice) 1001

Transfiguration, probably early 1480s (Capodimonte).   This has charm of colour & detail but displays the difficulty of a subject combining standing figures with those half reclining at their feet Wolfflin1899 p136

Madonna of the Pear, c1485 (Pinacoteca dell’Accademia Carrara, Bergamo)  

Madonna degli Alberetti, 1487 (Accademia)

Votive Picture of Doge Agostino Barbarigo, 1488 (S. Pietro Martire, Murano)

Resurrection (Berlin).   It has an evident geometric & rectangular construction Clark1949 pp 130-1

Madonna of the Meadow, c1505 (NG)  Exact rendering of the seasons Clark1949 p53

The Baptism of Christ, 1501 (S. Corona, Vicenza).   This is probably the first painting in Bellini’s late style.   It is distinguished from the Transfiguration by the subordiantion of spatial & intellectual logic to pictorial concerns.   Instead of a step by step movement from foreground to background the landscape is almost vertical with no peoper middle-ground, & it consists of large, luminous, interlocking planes.   The draperies no longer convey the previous rounded volume but are softer & warmer patches of colour which combine with the landscape to form an integrated decorative & atmospheric unity Grove3 p665

Doge Leonardo Lorendano, c1503 (NG).   One of Bellini’s official portraits where the lack of interest in idiosyncrasy & idealisation becomes a strength Pope-H p52

Virgin & Child with the Baptist & a Female Saint.., c1504 (Academy)

Virgin & Child Enthroned with Saints, 1505 (S. Zaccaria, Venice).   Here the illusionism is less rigorous than in the S. Giobbe altarpiece.   The soft chromatically saturated forms appear to float weightlessly as if transfigured by the presence of the divine Grove3 p665

Virgin & Child with Saints Peter & Mark & a Donor, 1505 (Birmingham Museums & Art Gallery)

Feast of the Gods, 1514 (NG Art).   This is unusual in the Renaissance for its affectionate & erotic humour.   This picture was substantialy reworked by Dossi & then Titian.   However, the more or less compised the vivid idiosyncratic green on the left, the steep mountian probably & probably the pheasant MET2006 pp172-4

Drunkenness of Noah, c1514 (Musee des Beaux-Arts, Besancon).   The facial types, glowing colour, deep shadows, & above all the enigmatic mood reveal Bellini’s interest in the work of Giorgione Grove3 p666

Young Woman with a Mirror, 1515 (Kunsthistorisches).   This is probably the first Venetian nude without biblical or mythological motivation, though it has been seen as having a Vanitas aspect.   Only unmarried women were allowed to wear their hair lose MET2006 p219

Last Judgement, triptych (Akademie der Bilden Kunste, Vienna).   The inclusion of the Fall is unusual, attention was normally focused on the act of judgement itself & equal attention as given to the saved & the damned.   Here, however, the divine court is small & the majority have been damned.   Some of the punishments, monsters & topographical details show that Bosh was familiar with traditional literary descriptions of hell, but he has also introduced new & frightening creatures, many of which are bizarre fusions of animal & human elements WGibson1973 pp 55-7

Haywain, triptych (Prado & Escorial).   There is disagreement as to which version is the original but the outer wings must have been executed by a rther clumsy workshop hand.   The haywain in the central panel is followed by the great, including Alexander VI ; in the centre the lower classes snatch hay from it or fight for it; while on the right devils are pulling the wagon towards hell.   Except for an angel nobody notices the tiny Christ, below which there are lovers symbolising Lust.   At the bottom there is a quack physician, representing Avarice, & nuns stuff hay into alarge bag supervised by a corpulent monk.   Hay was a traditional symbol with a Netherlandish song of about 1470 saying that God had provided good things for all men like a stack of hay but that each man wanted to keep them all.   Since hay is of little value, it probably also symbolises the worthlessness of earthly gain, as in subsequent pictures.   The great, who are already possessors, are not fighting but are guilty of Pride WGibson1973 pp 69-72.

Garden of Earthly Delights, triptych, c1503 (Prado).  This is about Lust with many of the forms in the central panel having been decoded & found to have an erotic connotation.    Many of the fruits nibbled or held by the lovers are metaphors for the sexual organs & picking fruit was a euphuism for copulation.

The fruit peelings, into which into which some of the figures have crept, signify worthlessness.    The circular pool harks back to the traditional love garden but here the women frisk naked while excited men ride around on animals.   Female power was often represented by a woman surrounded by a circle of male admirers WGibson1973 pp 81-5.     There is (says Janson) a contradiction between the innocence & haunting beauty of sinful mankind & the  intended stern moralistic sermonising.    Bosch must unconsciously have been enraptured by sensuous appeal of the world of flesh Frantz p127.   However, medieval man was taught death & damnation lurk behind physical lovliness WGibson1973 p87

Cosimo I de’Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany, 1545 (Uffizi).   Linear Michelangelesque style; human features painted like still life Pope-H pp 182-3

Allegory of Love, c1546 (NG).   Neutralised eroticism; cold/polished/unreal colour Shearman pp 64, 101.   This is the quintessence of Maniera.   The flattened contortions of Venus & Cupid create a tension that mirrors our discomfort with this unnatural image of mother & son  Hall1999 p229

Satyr Copulating with a Nymph, 1584-7 (BM Print Room 1867-14-13-548); only Arretin work.   [Beautifully/delicately engraved, as befits love-making; great clarity due to clossoney-like edging of figures who are emphasised/brought forward by relative absence of internal detail/shading; NB his gentle smile, her caressing hand, their touching foreheads.]

Satyr viewing crotch of sleeping woman (BM Print Room 1867-4-13-145).   [Satryr’s concentrated looking; no suggestion of impending impoper approach.]

Satyr wipping naked woman (BM Print Room  1867-4-13-547).   [It is unclear what is happening but it looks nasty.]

Satyr & sleeping nude woman (BM Print Room 1867-4-12-543).

[Finger to mouth in keep quiet jesture; merely voyeurism.]

Younger/small satyr with erection putting finger in nude woman’s vulva (BM Print Room 1867-4-13-546).    [Her ambiguous expression; possibly indicating that she is not being offered much.]

Old satyr suspending cord with bobble at end over nude woman’s vulva (BM Print Room1867-4-18-549).  [ Symbolism unclear but she does not look unhappy; neither alluring nor well drawn (stomach).]

Bean Eater, c1583-4 (Galleria Colonna, Rome)

Butcher’s Shop, c1583 (two versions: Christ Church & Kimbell Art Museum, Fort Worth).   Butchers’ shops had been depicted earlier by Aertsen & Passarotti but this is down-to-earth naturalism & revolutionary Realism.   It  probably shows Ludovico’s butcher cousin Waterhouse1962 p85, NGArt1986p269.   [The Christ Church picture is evenly lit, & displays no interest in colour for own sake.   The foppishly dressed figure of fun customer on the left, who is fingering his purse, contrasts with the serious butcher.   The meat table tilted forward, presumably because of  Annibale’s ’s interest in what was thereby displayed. ]

Pieta with SS Francis & Claire, 1585 (Galleria Nazionale, Parma).   This is more tightly constructed, & the lower figures move within a belivable space, & through pose & gesture they engage the viewer.    The fall of light generates an expressive impact, there are warm, earthy browns & reds, & Correggesque sfumato.   It  has with good reason been called the first fully formed example of Baroque painting Grove5 p860, NGArt1986 p237.

Vision of St Francis, probably 1609 fresco (lower oratory, S Colombano)

Burial of Christ, c1609 (Borghese)

Passion, Life of the Virgin, Carlo Borromeo, 1614 frescos (chapels S Bartolomeo all’Isola, Rome).   This is his major public work Grove5 p870

Deluge, 1616-7 (Louvre).  This is his best known easel painting Grove5 p870

Death of St Cecilia (Musee Fabre, Montpellier).   This one of his  last works & it strikingly anticipates the classicism of Poussin & Eustace Le Sueur Grove5 p870.

P antonio carracci:

Birth of the Virgin (Corsini).   [ It is somewhat stitled; sensuous (& non-religious?) picture with a young & desirable boy]

R P ludovico carracci:

Jason Battling the Men Born of the Dragon’s Teeth, 1584 (Palazzo Fava, Bologna).   Unlike Annibale’s nearby work, this is backward-looking with tall, thin men create elegantly decorative surface patterns in the manner of Abate & Parmigiano Posner1971 p26.

Annunciation, c1585 (Pinacoteca Nazionale Bologna).   More Mannerist/elegant/licked than Ann [at this time?] L&L.   [Good simple composition with homely Virgin, not idealised like those of  Raphael with her ordianaryness shown by work basked; does not look Mannerist.]

Conversion of S. Paul, 1587-8 (Pinacoteca Nazionale Bologna).   [Continuing Mannerist influence or proto-Baroque? probably former because of curious central background/landscape & figures lack of clartity.]

Madonna & Child with Angels & Saints (Bargellini Madonna), 1588 (Pinacoteca Nazionale Bologna).   This is derived from Titian’s Pesarro Madonna but monumental gramdeur has been replaced by maternal sweetness with the foreground figures almost out of picture with  S. Dominic pointing us to the Madonna.  It reflects the Counter Reformation belief in the absence of a barrier between natural & supernatural H&P pp 73-4 

Holy Family with S. Francis, 1591 (M. Cento).   Baroque altarpiece L&L

Martyrdom of S. Ossola, 1592 (Pinacoteca Nazionale Bologna).   [Striking; again not clear whether proto-Baroque or pseudo-Mannerism]

Preaching of S. John, 1592 (Pinacoteca Nazionale Bologna).   Baroque altarpiece L&L

Madonna degli Scalzi, c1593 (Bologna).   High Renaissance  regularity of general design but Manneristic Irrationality of  space Waterhouse1962 p86.   Simple design & spirituality, with the latter warm & human, in stark contrast to Vasari’s Immaculate Conception with its crowded  & crossed bodies, lack of spirituality, restricted use of colour, abstract symbolism .   Ludvico’s pioneering iconographic treatment of the Immaculata with the Madonna  against light coloured clouds, surrounded by angels & standing on a crescent moon.   The Purissima herself replaces allegorical representations of her conquest of Original Sin as in Vasari.    S. Francis’ inclusion significant because of the Franciscans stress on the Immaculate Conception.   Corregio’s influence: foreshortening of Christ, handling of light eg S. Jerome’s head Friedlaender1925 pp 55-8

  1. Hyacinth, 1594 (Louvre?).   Baroque altarpiece L&L

Madonna & Child with Saints & Donor (Pinacoteca Nazionale, Bologna)

  1. Rocco, 1602 (Sangiacomo Maggiore Church Bologna).   [Simpl&worthy/dull]

Assumption of the Virgin, c1609 (NG Parma).   Shows Ludvico’s astonishing inventive handling of traditional subjects; Assumptions nearly all have large Virgins with apostles looking up but here Mary is tiny & only noticed by one backgrounder; L’s apostles not surprised at empty tomb but astonishedly gesticulating, or struggling to support heavy tomb lid H&P p75

  1. Peter Crucified, 1613 (Pinacoteca Nazionale Bologna).  [Simple & Reni-like]

Christ Crucified above Figures in Limbo, 1614 (Sta Francesco Romana, Ferrara).   Almost Expressionist force OxDicArt

The Adoration of the Kings, 1616 (Brera).  [Tenebrist; strong diagonal thrust of highlighted figures; proto-Baroque]

Toilet of Esther, 1841 (Louvre).   Here we have Ingres’ idealisation together with sensuality TurnerDtoI p47.   [There is a mysterious, Oriental background reminiscent of the Pre-Raphaelites.    She has an erotic & supple, backwards bending pose, together with a thin waist which contrasts with her fleshy arm.]

Jean Baptiste Henri Lacordaire, 1840 (Louvre).    This is an Ingres-like painting together with an intensity of feeling reflecting the growing interest in Romanticism TurnerDtoI p47

Le Reverend Pere Dominique, 1840 (Louvre).   [This displays spiritual intensity.]

Two  Sisters, 1843 (Louvre).   This is another Ingres-like painting & also has an intensity of feeling reflecting the growing interest in Romanticism TurnerDtoI p47.   [The expressions are in subtle contrast expressions: waryness on left, openness on the right.   The colour combination of the green background, red shawls & brown-orange frocks is excellent.    The picture is reminiscent of Sargent’s sisters.]

         Seaport with Embarkation of the Queen of Sheba, 1648 (NG).  Italians Classicim is evident from a comparison with Turner’s Dido Building Carthage (1815):  Claude had no sense of boundless space.   In his picture space was conceived as a cube with a terra firma foreground & a left hand building up to the picture ceiling, sky does not suggest boundless spac&light, it is a backcloth forwardly illuminating the defined architectural space; Turner was a Romantic with a sense of infimity & little architectural conception of a picture, his picture has no solid foreground or indication of a top plane but a central light path up to the horizon & beyond into boundless space Wilenski p103

Landscape with the Arch of Constantine & the Colosseum, 1651 (Grosvenor Estate).   Illustates Claude’s nostalgia for lost world of antiquity eg Martin p249

Sermon on the Mount, 1656 (Frick).    [Exceptional because of centrality , absence of framing trees; good/animated figures]
