ATTRIBUTED TO PIER FRANCESCO MOLA Coldrerio 1612 - Rome 1666 Rest on the Flight into Egypt, c. 1640-1660 Oil on canvas Dimensions 74.5 x 62.5 cm This Rest on the Flight into Egypt reflects the influence of Roman classicism led by the Carracci brothers by constructing an idyllic landscape that highlights the connection between the Holy Family and the surrounding nature. The central scene shows Mary holding the Child while two angels watch attentively. On the other side, Saint Joseph is concentrating on reading a book, oblivious to everything around him. Like other versions of the same theme (National Gallery in London, MET in New York) painted by Mola, the types of the characters are indebted to his teacher Francesco Albani. This iconographic theme was popularized in the previous century by Titian, whose pastoral landscapes Mola emulated on a small scale, suitable for hanging in a study or bedroom.

GemäldepaarDARSTELLUNGEN AUS DEM LEBEN DES SELIGEN EGIDIO Öl auf Leinwand. 47,3 x 64,5 cm. Verso Aufschrift „134“ und „CN“ sowie „134“, „CN“ und „MF“. Der selig gesprochene Egidio (um 1190-1262) war als italienischer Franziskaner der „Dritte Gefährte“ des Heiligen Franz von Assisi. Als einfacher Bauer gesellte er sich 1208 zu den Franziskus-Anhängern, pilgerte nach Compostela und nach Jerusalem, führte ein einfaches Leben in Arbeit, hinterließ jedoch eine umfangreiche Sammlung seiner Sprüche und Weisheiten, die von Anhängern gesammelt, tradiert und als Dicta bis heute veröffentlicht werden. Selbst bei Dante wurde er in der „Göttlichen Komödie“ erwähnt. Seine Enthaltsamkeit und Bescheidenheit wurde auch Bildthema in der Malerei. Die beiden zusammengehörigen Bilder zeigen Situationen aus der Vita des Egidio. Im erstgenannten Bild ist ein Waldstück gezeigt, mit Ausblick zwischen Baumgruppen in heller erleuchtete Landschaft. Im Vordergrund zwei Mönche im Gespräch. Dabei hat sich einer – gemeint ist Egidio – zur Rast niedergesetzt, während ihm ein Ordenskollege einen Trunk aus dem danebenstehenden Wasserkrug anbietet. Egidio jedoch lehnt dankend ab, ist das Wasser doch für die Mönche im weiter entfernten Kloster bestimmt, die an Wassermangel leiden. Im Gegenstück, mit einer ähnlichen Waldsituation, wird der Mord an dem frühen Dominikanermönch der Inquisition, dem heiliggesprochenen Pietro da Verona (1200-1252), gezeigt. Der Legende nach wurde er Opfer eines von Mailänder Familien geplanten Auftragsmordes, dessen Prozess sich Jahre hinzog und unterschiedlichen Deutungen hinterließ. Die Legende berichtet, der Mörder sei dann selbst in den Orden eingetreten, später heiliggesprochen worden. Der Maler Pier Francesco Mola, Sohn eines Architekten, zog 1616 aus dem Tessin nach Rom, um sich bei Giuseppe Cesari ausbilden zu lassen. In Venedig und in Bologna tätig, war er zwei Jahre bei Francesco Albani dessen Assistent. Zurück in Rom, hat er im weiträumigen Palazzo Pamphiliji in Nettuno Fresken ausgeführt, ebenso in Valmontone. Von Papst Alexander VII für den Quirinalspalast beauftragt, entstand mit dem Fresko „Josef und seine Brüder“ wohl sein Hauptwerk. 1655 wurde er in die Lukasgilde aufgenommen. Die beiden Bilder wurden in der Publikation „Il Barocco è Noto“ besprochen von Emilio Negro und abgebildet. Literatur: Emilio Negro, in: Pierluigi Carofano (Hrsg.), Il Barocco è Noto“. Noto, Convitto delle Arti Noto Museum, 7. April-28. Oktober 2023. S. 106, mit 2 Abbn. Vgl. Federica Bianchi, Pier Francesco Mola, in: Historisches Lexikon der Schweiz, 4.12.2008. Vgl.

DER BLINDE HOMER Öl auf Leinwand. Doubliert. 78 x 65 cm. In mit Goldornamenten verziertem, ebonisierten Wellenleistenrahmen. Vor weitgehend unbestimmter, in mystisches Dunkel gehüllter Hintergrundfolie das Hüftportrait eines nach links gewandten alten Mannes mit weißem Bart, nach oben geführter Hand, entgegen der Blickrichtung und Lorbeerkranz. Das Gemälde zeigt eine sorgfältige und persönliche Auseinandersetzung mit Arbeiten Guercinos, Borgiannis und Riberas, aber auch eine Kenntnis der Werke einiger neapolitanischer Naturalisten, wie dem Meister der Verkündigung an die Hirten, Juan Do und Francesco Fracanzano, wobei noch unklar ist, ob dies einem Aufenthalt Molas in Neapel zu verdanken ist. Das vorliegende Bild findet seinen thematischen Widerhall in einem Gemälde, welches ebenfalls Homer zeigt, jedoch mit leicht nach rechts gerichtetem Kopf und als Tondo gearbeitet (Fondazione Zeri 47924), ein weiterer Homer jedoch mit Geige, wurde 2019 bei Sotheby‘s angeboten (31. Januar 2019, lot 112); auch in der Gallerie dell‘ Accademia in Venedig wird unter Inv. Nr. 32 ein geigender Homer verwahrt, dessen Kopf wie hier nach links gerichtet ist; und auch im Palazzo Corsini in Rom wird eine Version des „Homer mit Geige“, Baumstaffage und Begleitperson verwahrt, die vielleicht die aufwendigste Version darstellt (Inv.Nr. 192). Der Künstler arbeitete ab 1633 längere Zeit in Venedig und in Bologna, 1647 ging er nach Rom. In seinen Werken lassen sich Einflüsse von Salvator Rosa (1615-1673), aber auch von Carracci erkennen. Anmerkung: Wenngleich das Thema ein anderes ist, so ist der dargestellte Mann vermutlich nach dem gleichen Modell entstanden wie der Orientale, der unter Fondazione Zeri Nummer 47934 verzeichnet ist und 1978 bei Christie‘s angeboten worden ist. Literatur: Vgl. Francesca Petrucci, Pier Francesco Mola (1612-1666). Materia e colore nella pittura del Seicento, Rom 2012.

(Coldrerio, 1612 ; Roma, 1666) Madonna col Bambino, San Giuseppe e Angelo sul verso Apostolo Bistro su carta, cm 20,5X15 Delacroix raccomandava ai suoi allievi di imitare le opere di Pier Francesco Mola piÃ¹ di ogni altro pittore del passato, il celebre artista francese vedeva in lui la modernitÃ , un esponente ante litteram dell'Impressionismo. L'arte del Mola, infatti, modulandosi sul colore neoveneziano e guercinesco, sembra anticipare nei risultati la pittura ottocentesca, proprio per il suo far di macchia. La capacitÃ inventiva, la materia densa e luminosa, gli permisero tra gli anni '50 e la metÃ degli anni '60 del Seicento di affermarsi quale primo pittore dell'Urbe, ottenendo prestigiose commissioni dai Colonna, i Pamphilj e i Chigi, godendo della protezione di Alessandro VII e Cristina di Svezia, in un successo crescente culminante con l'elezione a Principe dell'Accademia di San Luca nel 1662. A testimoniare la notevole fortuna critica, si puÃ² altresÃ¬ citare una lettera scritta a Roma il 20 novembre 1670 da Abraham Brueghel al principe Ruffo, che del Mola scrisse: 'qui ha lasciato fama del primo Pictor d'Italia'.

Pier Francesco Mola, 1612 Coldrerio – 1666 Rome, attributed PORTRAIT OF AN OLD MAN
Est: €8,000 - €12,000
Against a green-brown background, the portrait slightly to the right, the old man depicted with a full beard, long gray hair and thoughtfully closed eyes. The light falls from an unknown source from the top left and illuminates parts of his hair and the right side of his face. The strong light and dark painting is reminiscent of the works of the Caravaggists. From 1633 onwards, the artist worked for a long time in Venice and Bologna, and in 1647 he went to Rome. Influences from Salvator Rosa (1615-1673), but also from Carracci, can be seen in his works. Oil on paper on wood, 45.5x35.5cm.

Materia e colore nella pittura del ‘600, Rome 2012, p. 298, no. B34, illustrated The present painting depicts a Biblical episode described in the book of Genesis: Rachel, was sent by her father Laban to graze and water their flock and was helped in the task by Jacob, her future husband who moved a heavy stone which was covering a well. The scene is framed by a wide classical landscape reminiscent of those of Carracci, with a high mountain in the far distance. Born in the province of Ticino, a canton of Switzerland, Pier Francesco Mola moved to Rome as a young boy when his father was appointed architect to the Camera Apostolica. He entered the Roman studio of Cavaliere d’Arpino at a young age, and later worked in Bologna as an assistant to Francesco Albani. Mola was also influenced by Pietro Testa, who he met in Lucca in 1637, as well as Giovanni Francesco Barbieri, il Guercino, in whose Bolognese studio he may have spent time in the 1640s. Mola’s most characteristic works are small scale cabinet and gallery pictures created for private collectors, with themes drawn from the Bible, classical mythology or modern poetry, usually set in landscapes inspired by the Venetian and Emilian schools of painting and marked by an intensely poetic and romantic mood. This work has been considered to date from the early period of Mola’s career, however, the presence of stylistic influences apparently derived from Guercino has led to the suggestion that the painting was executed by Mola during the second half of the 1640s.

Est: €2,000 - €3,000
Questo pregevole paesaggio con due santi in conversazione, è attribuibile alla cerchia di Pier Francesco Mola; la stesura quasi di 'macchia' del colore e la resa quasi guercinesca delle figure rimandano all'esperienza del Ticinese, tanto attenta al dato naturalistico quanto di una espressività anticipatrice della pittura ottocentesca.

Pier Francesco Mola (Coldrerio 1612 - Roma 1666) cerchia di Volto di uomo canuto Olio su tela 48 x 37 cm Pier Francesco Mola nacque a Coldrerio, in Ticino. Nel 1616 si trasferì con la famiglia a Roma, vista l’elezione del padre ad architetto della Camera Apostolica: qui frequentò sin da ragazzo le botteghe dei pittori più importanti come il Cavalier Giuseppe d’Arpino, Andrea Sacchi e Annibale Carracci, potendo anche osservare e apprendere l'arte di Poussin. Essendo di famiglia agiata e ricevendo una formazione con stimoli eterogenei e di massimo livello, ebbe modo di viaggiare a Bologna e Venezia. Per l’artista furono importanti l’acquisizione delle lezioni dei grandi pittori veneti del XVI secolo, come Tiziano e Tintoretto, e la grande pittura emiliana del primo Seicento, con Domenichino, Guercino e Francesco Albani. Questi artisti lo aiutarono a formare le sue scene immerse nella natura quando, tornato a Roma, nel 1647, iniziò a dedicarsi alla sua attività pittorica. Nel 1655 fu nominato membro dell’Accademia di San Luca e nel 1662 principe della stessa. La fine della sua carriera si rivelò colma di amarezza a causa di alcune lunghe e difficili dispute con un committente. L’artista si spense nel 1666 a Roma.

Pier Francesco Mola (1612 – 1666), Portrait of an Elderly Friar
Est: €9,500 - €15,000
The painting represents the bust of a mature man (probably a monk), balding and with a very white beard, painted thread by thread. The look down, and the hand to shell the beads of a circolum precatorum (what we now call the Rosary), are details that bring the painting into a proto-baroque world, which is to say, that of a sweetened naturalism. The portraits of mature men became, in the mid-seventeenth century and then for many decades to follow, a real genre in which many artists have tried their hand with often similar results.

Pier Francesco Mola, Italian 1612-1666- Joseph greeting his brothers; red chalk, pen and brown ink, watercolour and wash heightened with white on laid paper, with Joshua Reynolds's collector's stamp (Lugt 2364) (lower right), 19.1 x 24.7 cm. Provenance: Sir Joshua Reynolds, PRA (1723-1792).; The estate of the late designer Anthony Powell. Note: The present work is very likely one of several preparatory studies for the artist's arguably most prestigious commission, the large-scale fresco of Joseph greeting his Brothers in the Gallery of the Palazzo del Quirinale, Rome, of 1656-57. A drawing which is closer to the composition of the fresco is at Holkham (no.15694). Further studies in pen and brown ink exploring the composition are known (see R. Cocke, 'Pier Francesco Mola', Oxford, 1972, pls 60-72; and F. Petrucci, 'Pier Francesco Mola (1612-1666): Materia e colore nella pittura del '600', Rome, 2012, pp.466-67).

B53 Delacroix raccomandava ai suoi allievi di imitare le opere di Pier Francesco Mola più di ogni altro pittore del passato, il celebre artista francese vedeva in lui la modernità, un esponente ante litteram dell'Impressionismo. L'arte del Mola, infatti, modulandosi sul colore neoveneziano e guercinesco, sembra anticipare nei risultati la pittura ottocentesca, proprio per il suo far di macchia. La capacità inventiva, la materia densa e luminosa, gli permisero tra gli anni '50 e la metà degli anni '60 del Seicento di affermarsi quale primo pittore dell'Urbe, ottenendo prestigiose commissioni dai Colonna, i Pamphilj e i Chigi, godendo della protezione di Alessandro VII e Cristina di Svezia, in un successo crescente culminante con l'elezione a Principe dell'Accademia di San Luca nel 1662. A testimoniare la fortuna critica, si può altresì citare una lettera scritta a Roma il 20 novembre 1670 da Abraham Brueghel al principe Ruffo, che del Mola scrisse: Qui ha lasciato fama del primo Pictor d'Italia. Questi aspetti di stile, si colgono molto bene nella tela qui presentata, che esibisce pennellate spesse e frante, modulate con vigore cromatico e da una sorprendente velocità d'esecuzione. Questi caratteri suggeriscono di conseguenza non solo una discendenza con la tradizione naturalistica e caravaggesca di Serodine, ma anche spunti di confronto con le teste di carattere realizzate dal Mola, in analogia con quelle custodite presso l'Accademia di San Luca a Roma e in modo particolare il San Luca (olio su tela, cm 71X50- inv. 0368).

The Rest on the Flight into Egypt, oil on canvas, 50.2 x 67.3 cm (19 3/4 x 26 1/2 ins), old gilt carved frame, Qty: (1) Footnote: Provenance: Christie's, London, 19 March 2020, Chieveley House, Berkshire and Five Private Collections, lot 266; Estate of Michael Jaffé (1923-1997), art historian and former director of the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge. A recent restoration of this painting removed old, matt and discoloured varnish, and a film of surface dirt, and showed that the figures of Mary and Joseph are a later addition, probably dating from the 18th or early 19th century. When varnish was removed from the figurative group, which remained dark and ill-defined in some areas, a Cupid-like figure started to emerge, followed by a bare female leg. The painting was then x-rayed at the request of the current owner (illustrated here) revealing that the composition originally showed a reclining female nude as well as a garlanded Cupid figure, holding up a drape to reveal her beauty. The painting would therefore have originally represented Venus and Cupid in a pastoral landscape. Further restoration will most likely reveal the original composition more clearly, and redress the curent imbalance of light and dark. We are grateful to picture conservator Seonaid Wood for her conservation report.
