GIOVAN FRANCESCO BARBIERI detto IL GUERCINO
Est: €40,000 - €60,000
(Cento, 1591 - Bologna, 1666) Sant'Andrea apostolo (1643) Olio su tela, cm 137,5X108 Provenienza: Roma, collezione privata Bibliografia: G. Forgione, Un Sant'Andrea di Guercino e il suo committente, in Studi di Storia dell'Arte, n. 35, 2024 (in corso di pubblicazione) Il dipinto è stato ricondotto al catalogo di Giovan Francesco Barbieri da Gianluca Forgione e raffigura Sant'Andrea apostolo. L'opera si presenta in buone condizioni, con un'affascinante patina dettata dall'invecchiamento delle vernici ma che non attenua la comprensione del disegno, le preziosità delle stesure e i raffinati accostamenti cromatici. Manifesti sono i passaggi verdi e rosso-violacei tipici dell'artista, l'uso dell'oltremare e delle lacche, così le pennellate morbide che, in alcuni brani, lasciano trasparire l'imprimitura. Da notare sono le lumeggiature con cui l'autore ha connotato i lineamenti e le rughe del santo, mentre le tenui alternanze chiaroscurali plasmano l'immagine di una modulazione emotiva che nulla toglie al suo esito 'monumentale'. Questi aspetti indicano, di conseguenza, una esecuzione matura da associare al Quinto decennio del Seicento, ben prima dello stile smaltato e delle tipologie umane idealizzate che contrassegnano le opere tarde. La tela, infatti, emana un intento naturalistico avvalorato da un uso calibrato delle ombre e dei colori, offrendoci un'immagine ideale ma quanto mai presente nel suo afflato sentimentale. A conferma di questa cronologia vengono in aiuto il San Giuseppe della Pinacoteca Nazionale di Bologna (1648-1649) per l'analogia del volto con gli occhi rivolti al cielo (fig. 1, cfr. N. Turner, 2017, p. 652, n. 363) e il San Giovanni Battista conservato nel medesimo museo che, realizzato nel 1644, offre il parallelo più agevole dal punto di vista tecnico (cfr. ivi, p. 594, n. 304- Loire 2008, pp. 299-301, n162a-b). A conforto di questa datazione soccorre il Libro dei Conti, registro sul quale l'autore segnò le opere da lui realizzate e in cui l'apostolo Andrea si rintraccia solo in due occasioni. Il primo è annotato il 14 gennaio 1643, quando il Padre generale dei carmelitani Alberto Massari (1585-1643), all'epoca vicario del convento bolognese di San Martino Maggiore, pagò 50 ducati per una mezza figura di Sant'Andrea apostolo- mentre il 16 marzo 1656 un'opera della medesima iconografia e dello stesso taglio gli venne pagata dall'imolese Pietro Mancurti, che ricopriva la carica di governatore di Cento (per i due riferimenti cfr. Il libro dei conti del Guercino. 1629-1666, a cura di B. Ghelfi, con la consulenza scientifica di Denis Mahon, Bologna 1997, rispettivamente alle pp. 115-116, n. 286, e a p. 172, n. 505). Quest'ultima opera è stata identificata dalla critica nel Sant'Andrea apostolo già in collezione Koelliker, il cui stile vaporoso è effettivamente riferibile agli ultimi anni di Giovan Francesco (cfr. Massimo Pulini, in Guercino. Poesia e sentimento nella pittura del '600, catalogo della mostra a cura di D. Mahon, M. Pulini e V. Sgarbi, Milano, Palazzo Reale, 2003-2004, Novara 2003, p. 184, n. 47). La commissione per il padre generale dei carmelitani, invece, non è stata al momento riconosciuta in alcuna opera nota e, di conseguenza, la si può ragionevolmente riconoscere nel dipinto qui presentato. Si deve altresì rilevare che il nome di battesimo di padre Alberto Massari era giustappunto Andrea, nome poi abbandonato in occasione dell'ingresso nell'ordine e, con ogni probabilità, una volta nominato generale portò il dipinto con sé a Roma. Questa circostanza può motivare il silenzio da parte delle fonti felsinee sul Sant'Andrea, che plausibilmente non transitò mai nel convento di San Martino Maggiore, determinando la sfortuna iconografica dell'invenzione tra gli allievi e gli imitatori bolognesi del maestro. Il dipinto è corredato da una scheda critica di Gianluca Forgione. Bibliografia di riferimento: L. Salerno, I dipinti del Guercino, Roma 1988, ad vocem S. Loire, in Pinacoteca Nazionale di Bologna.

GIOVANNI FRANCESCO BARBIERI, CALLED IL GUERCINO (ITALIAN 1591-1666), YOUNG DAVID
Est: £30,000 - £50,000
GIOVANNI FRANCESCO BARBIERI, CALLED IL GUERCINO (ITALIAN 1591-1666) YOUNG DAVIDOil on canvas69 x 56cm (27 x 22 in.)This unpublished canvas may be identified as the 'testa di un davide' that Guercino painted for his friend Gerolamo Panesi and for which he was paid 30 scudi on 16 October 1649.1 In her comment to the above entry in her 1997 edition of Guercino's Account Book, Barbara Ghelfi noted that a canvas corresponding to this payment had yet to be identified. In the painting, David holds the sword with which he had beheaded Goliath. Rather than engage the spectator he stares into the distance, as if pondering the consequences of his victory. The velvety paint textures, the attractive colouring, the figure's classical pose and the delicate rendering of selected details fit perfectly with Guercino's mid-Bolognese period. The occasional flourishes of impasto that punctuate the smooth paint surface include the plume on David's cap and the fur of the lining to his cloak, especially where it touches and slightly overlaps his right thumb. The beguiling combinations of a narrow range of forceful secondary colours, mostly of neighbouring hue, may also be seen in the Cleopatra, now in a private collection, which Panesi ordered from Guercino only a few months later.2In 1648-1650 Panesi commissioned at least five pictures from Guercino. Panesi was a Genoese nobleman and art dealer and, during the artist's Bolognese period, was one of his more consistent and discerning clients, selling on some of the pictures he had commissioned from the master at a higher price in Rome, where he was mainly resident.3 Guercino stuck resolutely to his tariffs, yet somehow Panesi was able to persuade the painter to give him a discount, for example by reducing his standard-sized canvases in return for dropping his charge. In the following year, Guercino painted a 'Meza Figura del davide con la Testa di Golia Gigante' for a Sig. Lodovico Fermi of Piacenza, for which he was paid 75 scudi on 12 October 1650.4 Fermi's David is known from two versions-the actual-sized sketch in the National Museum of Western Art, Tokyo, and the finished picture, now in a private collection.5 Both correspond almost exactly in size and are significantly larger than the present picture. 6 In format, a half-length was the next size up from a head-and-shoulders and it generally included extra details, such as, in this instance, Goliath's severed head. Fermi paid Guercino 75 scudi for his picture, as compared to Panesi's 30 scudi, for a picture just over half the size of Fermi's, painted in the previous year. With such a busy practice, Guercino was inevitably asked to paint the same subject several times, especially for his half-lengths and heads. A commission for a subject, perhaps painted previously on other occasions, required a fresh invention. Guercino could avoid repetitions by referencing past drawings, but inevitably one compositional treatment morphed subtly into the next. From the point of view of Guercino's creative method, much may be learned by comparing Panesi's David with Fermi's, since similarities and differences abound, in costume, pose, studio props and facture. Two further works by Guercino, both half-lengths, connect in design with the present picture. The first is a drawing in the Royal Library, Windsor Castle, ascribed to Guercino but clearly by him. Despite the composition's half-length format, it could well have been made as a study for this canvas, with the head of Goliath included as an alternative to David's sword.7 Notwithstanding these differences, the overall correspondence is close. The second is a painting formerly in the collection of the King of Sardegna, now belonging to the Galleria Sabauda, Turin, presently on show at the Venaria Reale, which is reproduced here from a lithograph by Luigi Poggioli.8 As here, Goliath's head is absent from the composition of the Turin picture. Its larger size and the introduction of the regal columnar architecture in the background bring it nearer to Fermi's canvas. Strong echoes of the present painting are easily to be found in the Windsor drawing and the Turin picture. But it is the hybrid format of the present canvas that pins it down as the one ordered by Panesi. It is a reduced-sized half-length and is bigger and has more detail than Guercino's normal head-and-shoulders format. This rare exception to the painter's rule was probably the result of Panesi's successful haggling. Notes:1). B. Ghelﬁ (ed.), Il libro dei conti del Guercino, 1629-1666, Bologna, 1997, p. 143, no. 413. When the picture was first shown to me, on 17 January 2013, I wrongly attributed it to Guercino's nephew Cesare Gennari. Five years later, following my immersion in Guercino's works in preparation for my monograph on him published last year, the presence of the master's hand is all too clear to me, and I now have no hesitation in giving the picture to him in full. 2).

Est: €15,000 - €20,000
reca al retro etichetta con antico numero di inventario reca al retro etichetta della Galleria Rosenberg, Parigi “ Quest’opera rappresenta la prima idea, sinora sconosciuta, del Guercino per il suo celebre Paesaggio con due donne che fanno il bagno (Diana e Atteone), conservato al Boijmans Van Beuningen Museum di Rotterdam, dipinto databile al 1618 circa, in cui Diana, accompagnata da una ninfa e da una serva, vengono raffigurate in una piscina circondata da un vasto paesaggio. La piccola tela in oggetto è all'incirca della stessa altezza del quadro di Rotterdam e stilisticamente coerente con essa, ma è notevolmente più stretta e compositivamente più semplificata. Nell'antico mito, Diana trasformò Atteone in un cervo spruzzandogli dell’acqua per vendicarsi del fatto che avesse violato l’intimità della dea, vedendola mentre faceva il bagno. Guercino ha interpretato la storia liberamente, minimizzando il ruolo di Diana quale dea e conferendole più l'aspetto di una ragazza di campagna. L’opera appena scoperta ha dato al Guercino spazio per due sole figure. La bellissima figura nuda di Diana in primo piano a sinistra, vista da dietro, domina la scena. A destra, su scala minore, Atteone punito, con le corna di cervo già spuntate dalla sua testa, viene attaccato dai suoi stessi cani da caccia. Il corno da caccia di Atteone è abbandonato su un muretto, punto dal quale aveva spiato per la prima volta la dea nuda che faceva il bagno. La tela documenta la fase iniziale e sperimentale nello sviluppo della composizione del quadro di Rotterdam. (…)”

Est: €100 - €500
(Cento, 1591 - Bologna, 1666) La Sepoltura e gloria di santa Petronilla Tempera su carta, cm 49,5X29 Il dipinto fu commissionato al Guercino da papa Gregorio XV nel dicembre del 1621 per adornare l'altare dedicato a Santa Petronilla posto all'interno della basilica di San Pietro, ove la grande tela fu collocata nel 1623. La pala d'altare, proprio per la quanto mai prestigiosa destinazione, è senza dubbio la commissione più importante cui attese il Guercino negli anni che trascorse a Roma, città presso la quale si trasferì per volere dello stesso cardinale Alessandro Ludovisi, mecenate e mentore del Barbieri già in Emilia, allorché questi ascese al soglio pontificio. La tela rimase nella sua originaria collocazione fino al 1730, quando fu sostituita da una copia in mosaico. Il quadro fu quindi portato al Quirinale ove nel 1797 le truppe d'occupazione napoleoniche lo requisirono e, con varie altre opere d'arte prese a Roma, lo inviarono al Louvre. Dopo la Restaurazione il dipinto fu restituito allo Stato Pontificio e collocato nel 1818 nelle raccolte capitoline ove ancora si trova. Bibliografia di riferimento: L.

GIOVANNI FRANCESCO BARBIERI detto il GUERCINO, bottega di (Cento 1591 - Bologna 1666) ERCOLE Olio sui tela, cm. 137 x 112 PROVENIENZA Famiglia romana L'opera, qui presentata di gran vigore pittorico, si annovera fra le numerose edizioni del soggetto del grande maestro bolognese. Il dipinto si inserisce nella produzione della vasta bottega del Guercino, richiamando opere, di medesimo soggetto, incentrate su mezze figure di Ercole, ma con composizioni diverse eseguite dal maestro in esemplari nel corso degli anni ’40 del XVII secolo (L. Salerno, I dipinti del Guercino, Roma 1988, pp. 404; N. Turner, The paintings of Guercino. A revised and Expanded Catalogue raissonné, Roma 2017, pp. 605, n. 316, 571, n. 281). Il paragone più vicino è sicuramente con l'Ercole conservato alla Galleria Nazione di Parma, già collezione Sanvitale. Il nostro dipinto, in paragone realizzativo con il dipinto di Parma, risulta meno forte nella definizione e nelle volumetrie delle braccia aperte, mentre il volto conserva accenti qualitativi notevoli tanto da ipotizzare interventi del maestro e quindi la pertinenza di questa opera alla bottega. Non risulta ci siano altre versioni di questa composizione, raffigurante l’eroe, riconoscibile dalla clava su cui poggia la sua mano destra e dalla pelliccia che gli cinge i fianchi, in un paesaggio al tramonto CONDITION REPORT Rintelo recente. Alcuni punti e piccole zone di restauro in alto nel cielo, alcuni piccoli punti di restauro sul naso e sul petto.
