    • SANTE CREARA (VERONA 1571 - 1630)
      Dec. 05, 2023

      SANTE CREARA (VERONA 1571 - 1630)

      Est: €1,400 - €2,000

      Sante Creara (Verona 1571 - 1630) Madonna col Bambino e San Nicola Olio su tela 95 x 115 cm Il Bambino Gesù qui raffigurato è sovente presente nelle opere di Creara con posizioni simili e la stessa connotazione fisionomica. Altra caratteristica utile all'attribuzione è la presenza di figure viste di profilo, particolare che connota la produzione del pittore veronese. Un utile confronto lo si trova nella tela Madonna con Gesù Bambino e i Santi Francesco e Chiara, conservato presso l’Accademia Carrara di Bergamo. Si formò con Orlando Flacco e Felice Brusasorzi, a differenza di altri artisti come Turchi, Bassetti e l'Ottino rinunciò all’esperienza romana e rimase distinto dal caravaggismo. Operò nella sua città natale e nella provincia scaligera, nonché a Brescia e Vicenza. Sante Creara (Verona 1571 - 1630) Madonna and Child With Saint Nicholas Oil on canvas 95 x 115 cm The Child Jesus depicted here is often present in Creara's artworks with similar positions and the same physiognomic connotation. Another useful feature for attribution is the presence of figures seen in profile, a detail that characterizes the production of the Veronese painter. A useful comparison can be found in the canvas Madonna with Child Jesus and Saints Francis and Clare, preserved at the Carrara Academy in Bergamo.

      Sante Creara

      Est: €15,000 - €20,000

      (Verona 1571–1630) The Holy Family with Saint Anne and the Infant Saint John the Baptist, oil on canvas, 89.5 x 118.5 cm, framed Literature: S. Marinelli, Percorso nel Seicento Veneto, in: Aldèbaran VI, Verona 2021, pp. 71–74, fig. 1 (as Sante Creara) The present painting relates to a composition by Creara of the Madonna and Child in a Venetian private collection (op. cit. Marinelli, 2021, p. 73, fig. 2). Marinelli also mentions another smaller version with a landscape background, conserved in the Museo di Castelvecchio, Verona (inv. no. 436, oil on canvas, 75 x 86 cm). Marinelli dates the present painting to after Creara’s visit to Florence in 1597, where he travelled with his master Felice Brusasorci, and following Rubens’ visit to Verona in 1602. The shades of red in the present composition are reminiscent of Rubens, as well as being similar to those used by Alessandro Turchi, who was Creara’s companion in Brusasorci’s workshop. In general, the colour spectrum used in the present work corresponds to that used by Felice Brusasorci’s workshop, which Creara led until 1605. The Infant Saint John seen from behind, pointing to the Christ Child with raised forefinger, was also part of the artist’s typical repertoire. The two capricious boys in the present painting give the composition a playful character, implying that the artist was not interested in following the precepts of the Counter-Reformation which probably led to Creara’s expulsion from Verona’s academic institutions in 1612, yet he was named as one of the city’s leading artists by Francesco Pola in Lo Stolone ovvero della sala pretoria veronese restaurata dal podestà Agostino Amulio, published in Verona in 1615. Creara also worked in Piacenza, Brescia, Padua and Vicenza. He was mainly active in churches in the province until his death in 1630 during the plague, from which the painter’s entire family perished. He remained unmarried and since all the male members of the family had died, the painter Pasquale Ottino, also a pupil of Felice Brusasorci and a friend of Creara, was appointed his sole heir.

      Sante Creara, Agony in the Garden

      Est: €14,000 - €16,000

      Sante Creara is was among the minor Veronese masters of the first half of the 16th century whose works have only recently gained the attention of scholars. His style was heavily influenced by his teacher Felice Brusasorzi (1539 - 1605). Like Alessandro Turchi, also a pupil of Brusasorzi, both artists painted on polished slate and were masters in using the dark colour of the substrate material effectively as a nocturnal background for their compositions. We would like to thank Professor Bernard Aikema for the attribution of this painting to Sante Creara.

      SANTE CREARA (c. 1570 - AFTER 1630): DIANA WITH HER ATTENDANTS

      Est: $5,000 - $8,000

      SANTE CREARA (c. 1570 - AFTER 1630): DIANA WITH HER ATTENDANTS Oil on black marble, signed 'S. Crearivs. F' lower right. 17 x 13 3/4 in., 17 3/4 x 14 1/4 in. (frame). Note: This beautiful Mannerist painting on black marble is a fine example of Sante Creara's small-scale work. Creara is often associated with Felice Rizzo Brusasorci (1540-1605), with whom he produced collaborative alterpieces in Verona. For his smaller works, Creara favored slate and marble whose smooth surface helped to emphasize his Mannerist style. Diana with her Attendants is painted with the elongated proportions, stylized poses and lack of clear perspective that characterize Mannerism.
