Attributed to GIOVANNI PAOLO PANINI (Piacenza, Emilia-Romagna, 1691 - Rome, 1765). "St. Paul in the Areopagus of Athens". Oil on canvas. It has Italian frame of the eighteenth century. Provenance: Infante Sebastián Gabriel de Borbón. Measurements: 48 x 72 cm; 65 x 89 cm (frame). The composition of this scene follows a triangular pattern of classical character. This allows an easy reading of the theme represented. It is worth mentioning the treatment of color, with a palette of bright and saturated colors that brings expressiveness to the work, thus harmonizing with the subject matter represented and which was a common characteristic in the Spanish Mannerist school. St. Paul was a Hellenized Jew from the Diaspora, born in Tarsus. He was therefore Jewish by ethnicity, Greek by culture and Roman by nationality. He received the name Saul, which he changed to Paul after his conversion. Born at the beginning of the first century, he studied in Jerusalem with Rabbi Gamaliel, who was known for his hatred of Christians. One day, when around the year 35 he was on his way from Jerusalem to Damascus, he was dazzled by lightning and fell from his horse. Then he heard the voice of Jesus saying to him: "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? As a result of this experience, the saint went abruptly from persecutor to zealot of Christianity. After curing the blindness of a Christian from Damascus, he began his life as a missionary, until he arrived in Jerusalem where he came into contact with Peter and the other apostles. In the Middle Ages numerous corporations were placed under his patronage, due to different aspects of his iconography, life and miracles. However, St. Paul was never a popular saint, which proves the relative poverty of his iconography. In fact, the role he occupies in art is out of proportion to his importance in the spread of Christianity. In early Christian art, his only attributes are a book or a scroll, and in the 13th century his emblem appears, the sword that was the instrument of his martyrdom.

SÄULENARCHITEKTUR MIT PUTTI Öl auf Leinwand. Doubliert. 100 x 60 cm. In teilvergoldetem Rahmen. Beigegeben eine Expertise von Prof. Ferdinando Arisi, in Kopie. Dieses architektonische Capriccio wurde ebenso wie das vergleichbare, hier angebotene Werk, von Panini gemalt in der Zeit nach seinem Umzug nach Rom im November 1711, als er im Atelier von Benedetto Luti zusammen mit Placido Costanzi arbeitete. Unter den hohen, teils verschattet liegenden Säulen einer antiken Architektur oder eines Tempels, dessen Gebälk teils mit herabhängenden Pflanzen bewachsen ist, fünf nackte Putti und eine breite, am Boden stehende Schale, aus der sie wohl Wasser geschöpft haben, um dann aus zwei kleinen Schalen zu trinken. Zwischen den Säulen rechts fällt der Blick auf ein ruhiges Meer unter hohen Himmel. Die Figuren scheinen fast in den Hintergrund zu treten und lediglich dem Größenvergleich und der Unterstreichung der prächtigen Architektur zu dienen. Die Malerei in überwiegend grau-brauner Farbigkeit, die Architektur zudem durch starke Licht- und Schattenkontraste besonders hervorgehoben. (13803128) (18)

RUINENCAPRICCIO MIT FIGURENSTAFFAGE Öl auf Leinwand. 60 x 73 cm. Links unten Reste einer verwischten Signatur. Hohe, ruinöse Pfeiler und Gewölbebögen beherrschen das Bildganze. Als Repoussoir links eine kannelierte Säule neben einer großen Steinvase, rechts ein Obelisk. Bögen und Zwischenräume bieten Blicke auf weiter entfernte antike Bauten und Ruinen, so etwa ein im Licht stehender Rundtempel mit noch erhaltener Flachkuppel. Zu den wichtigen Qualitätsmerkmalen im Werk Paninis zählt die Beleuchtung des Bildganzen. Ein lichter Wolkenhimmel zieht zwischen die Architekturen hin. Das Motiv versunkener Bauwerke hat Panini in fast allen seiner Bilder exzessiv vorgeführt. Die antiken Bauten sind stets fantasievoll, selten historisch lokal zugeordnet gezeigt, letztlich sollte hier die versunkene antike Vergangenheit zum Sprechen gebracht werden. Häufig ist die Architektur auch Kulisse für eine Staffage mit eigenem Geschehen, gelegentlich mit religiöser Thematik, oder wie hier, mit Gestalten, die die frühen Epochen vertreten, so etwa der geharnischte Soldat neben einem bärtigen Weisen und einer jungen Frau. Farbkompositorisch hat der Maler hier im Bild ein kräftiges Rot in der Kleidung eines neben dem trockenen Brunnen liegenden Mannes mit Turban eingefügt. A.R. Als Schüler des Bühnengestalters Francesco Galli Bibiena (1659-1739), auf den wohl auch Paninis Sinn für die Theatralik in seinen Antikenlandschaften zurückgeht, zog er 1711 nach Rom, wo er auch mit Canaletto (1697-1768) in Berührung kam. Als Leiter der Dekorationsarbeiten für etliche römische Paläste schuf er nebenbei auch Gemälde, die römische Plätze und Festlichkeiten verewigen sollten, wie etwa das Fest auf der Piazza Navona (Louvre usw.). Besonderen Ruhm brachten ihm seine Festausstattungen für bedeutende Staatsereignisse ein, wie etwa zur Geburtsfeier des französischen Thronfolgers oder 1745 für die Hochzeit des Dauphins. Für Papst Innozenz XIII schuf er Ausmalungen im Quirinalspalast. Er wurde bald als Dozent an die Accademia di San Luca und die Académie de France in Rom berufen. Hier kam auch Jean-Honoré Fragonard (1732-1806) unter seinen Einfluss. 1718 wurde er Mitglied der Congregazione dei Virtuosi al Pantheon. In seiner Werkstatt arbeiteten auch Hubert Robert (1733-1808) sowie sein Sohn Francesco Panini (1745-1812). Literatur: Vgl. Ferdinando Arisi, Gian Paolo Panini, Piacenza 1961. Vgl.

Das Bildformat zeigt, dass das Gemälde für eine Supraport-Ausstattung geschaffen wurde. In diesem Breitformat fand der Maler allerdings Gelegenheit, nahezu eine Panoramaansicht zu bieten. Dabei zeigt die Darstellung keineswegs reale Gegebenheiten des alten Rom, sondern vielmehr höchst fantasievoll komponierte Versatzstücke, die bereits der Romantik vorweggenommene Idealansichten liefern sollten, was die Bezeichnung Capriccio rechtfertigt. Die artifizielle Zusammenstellung bedeutender Monumente des Altertums ist in der italienischen Malerei mit Panini und Piranesi, dann in der französischen Malerei mit Hubert Robert zum beliebten Bildthema geworden. Gezeigt werden in idealisierter Zusammenstellung mehrere bekannte Bauten, wie im Zentrum das Kolosseum, dahinter ragt ein Obelisk auf, Säulen des Forums, oder die fantastische Rekonstruktion eines Tempels mit darinstehender Steinfigur. Rechts Kastor und Pollux mit ihren Pferden. Die Mitte der Darstellung zeigt uns einen kleinen, auf Stufen erhöhten überkuppelten Bau. Von besonderem Reiz – in der Bildgestaltung wie im farblich-malerischen Effekt – die im Vordergrund scheinbar verstreut liegenden bauplastischen Elemente, Gesimsstücke sowie ein großes Bildrelief, das farbvariierend wiedergegeben ist und die spätnachmittägliche Lichtstimmung mitreflektiert, die über der gesamten Szenerie liegt. Belebung der Ruinenlandschaft durch eine Gruppe sitzender und bewegter Figuren. A.R. Anmerkung: Zum Vergleich siehe „Capriccio con rovine e figure“, Parma, Sammlung Gianni Barilla. Literatur: Vgl.

Pair of Capricci with figures
Est: €12,000 - €16,000
Oil on canvas cm. 90x45 each. Framed The Capriccio with the archaeologist (174a) bears the initials 'I.I.P.' in the lower left-hand corner. The paintings is accompanied by an expertise by Prof. Giancarlo Sestieri who attributes the canvases to Giovanni Paolo Panini with the intervention of assistants. In Panini's catalogue, there are numerous fully autographed replicas of subjects such as the Interno del Pantheon or the Campo Vaccino, or fictional ones such as his typical monuments of ancient Rome, real or grouped as "capriccio". One of Panini's most successful inventions is the pair of Capricci ovali of the Accademia di San Luca, commonly known as L’archeologo and the Predica di un apostolo, the first is initialled and dated "I.P.P. 1749". The two 'Capricci' of the Accademia di San Luca, which perfectly express that atmosphere of 'Romanity', suspended between reality and fantasy, that Panini knew how to convey with irresistible naturalness, admiration and genuine enchantment for the vestiges of classical antiquity. The present pair, although presenting notable and very interesting variants that distance it considerably both from that of the Accademia di San Luca, and from the many later versions based on it, can be confirmed to be in the hand of Gian Paolo Panini with the intervention of helpers: an attribution that is also confirmed by the presence of the initials "I.P.P." affixed to the lower left corner of the scene with the archaeologist.

GemäldepaarARCHITEKTURCAPRICCI Öl auf Leinwand. 132 x 61,5 cm. In teilvergoldeten Rahmen. Beigegeben eine Expertise von Prof. Giancarlo Sestieri. Die beiden als Gegenstücke gemalten, betont hochformatigen Bilder präsentieren sich als typische Grand Tour-Rom-Erinnerungen für das entsprechende Sammlerklientel aus der adeligen oder großbürgerlichen Gesellschaft. Auch Panini und seine Werkstatt hatten für diese Anliegen und Interessen gearbeitet. Im Nebeneinander der beiden Gemälde stehen die Tempelsäulen jeweils links bzw. rechts im Bild. Der Freiraum zeigt weiter hinten befindliche Bauten, über denen der Wolkenhimmel Raum finden kann. In der links zu positionierenden Ansicht eine Brunnenfigur vor absidialem Abschluss und Rundbogen mit Balustrade. Im Gegenstück ist rechts eine antike korinthische Säule eines Tempels zu sehen mit rundbogig dahinter abschließendem Ende. Die Versatzstücke beziehen sich wie häufig bei Panini vermutlich auf real existierende in Rom im Bereich des Forum Romanums befindliche antike Bauten. Bereichert werden die Darstellungen jeweils mit Staffagefiguren mit literarischem Hintergrund. Von besonderem Reiz sind hier allerdings zudem die Darstellungen durch zwei extrem hochformatige Pendants, was im Oeuvre Paninis nur selten vorkommt.

RUINENCAPRICCIO MIT DER PREDIGT EINER SIBYLLE Öl auf Leinwand. Doubliert. 49,5 x 64,5 cm. In vergoldetem Holzrahmen. Das raffinierte Capriccio, das hier angeboten wird, ist durch die Studien über Panini seit langem bekannt und stellt ein Thema dar, das im Oeuvre des Malers aus Piacenza sehr häufig vorkommt, wenn auch mit subtilen Variationen in der Anzahl der Figuren und in ihrer Anordnung und vor allem in den architektonischen und skulpturalen Elementen, die den Rahmen und gleichzeitig das eigentliche Thema bilden. In der Tat gibt es zahlreiche Vergleiche von Ferdinando Arisi mit anderen katalogisierten Werken, die nach seiner Ansicht über die gesamte Spanne der römischen Produktion des Künstlers datiert werden können, beginnend um 1730, dem Datum, das bereits für das Gemälde in der Galerie Artems in Graz als Entstehungsdatum vorgeschlagen wurde. Dieselben Motive kehren auch in einem der Pendants in der Cassa di Risparmio di Piacenza wieder, wo wir unter anderem dieselbe Löwenfigur sehen, die auch auf unserem Gemälde zu sehen ist, mit einem Portikus mit drei Säulen, der die Szene auf der rechten Seite abschließt. Wie bei dem oben erwähnten Paar schlägt Arisi vor, unser Gemälde in das fünfte Jahrzehnt des 18. Jahrhunderts zu datieren, und zwar aufgrund der klaren, leuchtenden Farbpalette, die die Szene auszeichnet. Nah an unser Gemälde kommt ein Gemälde Paninis im Prado heran (Arisi 331-332). Es wird vermutet, dass er Schüler des Francesco Galli Bibiena (1659-1739) war, der bereits in seinem, auch grafischen Werk, die Fantastik römischer Stadtlandschaften in theatralischer Weise vortrug, was Panini sicher auch ohne persönliche Begegnung hat übernehmen können. Ab 1711 in Rom, wurde er auch mit Giovanni Antonio Canal (1697-1768) bekannt. Zunächst mit Dekorationsmalerei in Palästen wie der Villa Patrizi oder des Palazzo De Carolis tätig, widmete er sich zunehmend dem Thema des Antikenarchitektur-Capriccios. Provenienz: Sammlung Giuseppe Mainardi, Cremona. Anmerkung: Das gleiche Sujet hat Panini bereits ca. 10 Jahre zuvor gemalt (Palais Attems, Graz).
