Borrelli Antichita

Description

Description: In this “Madonna and Child”, Francesco Solimena expresses various elements of his poetics with a fully rococo delicacy.

The painter from Campania, varying the tones of chiaroscuro from the wavy cape to the child, passes from the widespread airiness of the Rococo to a tenebrism more typical of the Neapolitan Baroque.

The canvas offered here constitutes an excellent example of the production that Francesco Solimena, assisted by the workshop, was able to allocate to the domestic devotion of private collectors eager to possess a sample of the activity of the greatest Neapolitan artist of his time.

The strong plastic emphasis of the figures underlined by the chiaroscuro suggests a dating to the early eighteenth century.
