Matteo Rosselli (Firenze 1578 - 1650) Angelica cura Medoro ferito Olio su tela 128 x 169 cm Provenienza: Collezione privata lombarda, opera acquisita negli anni '60 del XX secolo. Esposizioni: Galleria d'arte Europa, Milano Galleria San Carlo opera 47 del catalogo. L'opera è accompagnata da una scheda attributiva del dottor Dino Bonardi. La splendida e opera di Rosselli è un' interessante variante del dipinto realizzato per i Medici e custodito tutt'oggi presso Villa della Petraia a Firenze. L'origine del soggetto va rintracciata nella serie di dipinti riferiti alle opere di Ludovico Ariosto e Torquato Tasso commissionati da cardinale Carlo de' Medici intorno al 1621-1622 e realizzati entro il 1624. Matteo iniziò la sua avventura artistica come allievo di Gregorio Pagani, il quale morì nel 1605, fatto che indusse Rosselli a terminare molti dipinti incompleti. Dopo un inizio caratterizzato dall'influenza del Pagani, intorno al 1610 si accostò al Passignano, con il quale condivise il soggiorno romano. Tornato a Firenze, dipinse molte opere per i Medici e in breve tempo fu una delle personalità artistiche più importanti del suo tempo. Fu un abile e quotato pittore di soggetti religiosi, diffusi in tutta la Toscana. A tal proposito, illuminante è quanto scrive Sandro Bellesi (Catalogo dei Pittori Fiorentini del '600 e '700, Volume 1, pag. 240): Diffusore di un linguaggio pittorico "fiorito" e ricco di eleganza, il Rosselli fu uno dei più apprezzati autori di dipinti ecclesiali del suo tempo. La nobiltà degli impianti, la ricca selezione cromatica e la decantata descrizione delle figure, sprigionanti accostante sacralità, favorirono nel corso dei lunghi decenni di attività allogazioni per il capoluogo toscano e per molte località regionali più o meno importanti. Tra i suoi allievi meritano di essere ricordati: Giovanni da San Giovanni, Francesco Furini, Jacopo Vignali, Domenico Pugliani, Lorenzo Lippi, Giovan Battista Vanni, Baldassarre Franceschini detto Volterrano, Stefano Della Bella, Mario Balassi. Matteo Rosselli (Florence 1578 - 1650) Angelica Cures Wounded Medoro Oil on canvas 128 x 169 cm Provenance: Private collection in Lombardy, artwork acquired in the 1960s. Exhibitions: Galleria d'arte Europa, Milan Galleria San Carlo artwork 47 in the catalogue. The artwork is accompanied by an attribution card by Dr. Dino Bonardi. This splendid artwork by Rosselli is an interesting variant of the painting made for the Medicis and is still held today at the Villa della Petraia in Florence. The subject's origin can be traced back to the series of paintings referring to the Ludovico Ariosto and Torquato Tasso artworks commissioned by Cardinal Carlo de Medici around 1621-1622 and executed by 1624.

JAËL UND SISARA Öl auf Leinwand. Doubliert. 121 x 96,5 cm. In Prunkrahmen. Die Darstellung geht auf eine biblische Erzählung zurück, nach der der kanaanäische Feldherr Sisera nach einer verlorenen Schlacht gegen die Israeliten geflüchtet war und sich in einem Zelt der Jaël versteckte. Dort wollte sie ihn angeblich vor den Feinden verstecken, jedoch trieb sie ihm, während er schlief, mit einem Schmiedehammer einen Zeltpflock durch die Schläfe, dieser Moment ist auf dem Gemälde wiedergegeben. Im Hintergrund die Leinwände des Zeltes, davor die schöne Jaël in edler rot-weißer Kleidung mit Schmuck, vor ihr der schlafende Feldherr mit seinem Schwert und rechtsseitig gelegten Helm. Sie hält gerade den Pflock an die Stirn und schwingt einen Hammer, um die grausame Tat zu vollbringen. Vergleichbare Darstellungen lassen sich auch bei anderen Künstlern finden, darunter auch von Artemisia Gentileschi (1593-1654). (1411411) (18) Matteo Rosselli, 1578 Florence – 1651, attributed JAEL AND SISARA Oil on canvas. Relined. 121 x 96.5 cm. The depiction is based on a Bible story according to which the Canaanite general Sisera fled after a lost battle against the Israelites and hid Jael’s tent.

(Firenze, 1578 - 1650) Giaele e Sisara Olio su tela, cm 122X97 Provenienza: Impruneta, collezione A. Briganti Firenze, già mercato antiquario Bibliografia: G. Cantelli, Repertorio della pittura fiorentina del Seicento, Firenze 1983, p. 130, n. 687 S. Bellesi, Pittori fiorentini del '600 e '700. Biografie e opere, Firenze 2009, p. 242 (citata)? F. Baldassari, La pittura del Seicento a Firenze. Indice degli artisti e delle loro opere, Torino 2009, p. 651 (citata) Il dipinto raffigura l'eroina biblica Giaele nell'atto di uccidere il condottiero Sisara che, descritto in primo piano dormiente, abbraccia inerte la spada. Le due figure occupano lo spazio scenico e sono illuminate da una luce tenebrosa che, cadendo dall'alto a sinistra, le fa emergere dal fondale scuro. L'artista, che fu allievo e per diverso tempo collaboratore di Gregorio Pagani, è registrato all'Accademia del Disegno nel 1600, due anni dopo lo sappiamo a Roma con il Passignano e nel 1605 ereditò la bottega del maestro (Cfr. F. Baldinucci, Notizie de' professori del disegno da Cimabue in qua, a cura di F. Ranalli, IV, Firenze 1688, Firenze 1846, pp. 154-176). Giudicato di impeccabile moralità, Rosselli è considerato uno dei più importanti diffusori a Firenze dello stile controriformato, ma altresì capace durante la maturità di cogliere le innovazioni barocche di Pietro da Cortona (Baldinucci, 1688, 1846, p. 173). Detto ciò, questa evoluzione si avvia in modo particolare durante il terzo decennio in cui al pittore sono sempre più richiesti 'quadri da stanza'. Bibliografia di riferimento: F. Faini Guazzelli, M.

Rosselli h: 41,70 w: 27,50 cm Provenance : Vente "Collection d''un amateur" ; Paris, Hôtel Drouot, Me Renaud, 15 février 1984, n° 114 ; Collection particulière, Paris Commentaire : Notre dessin est préparatoire au tableau de Matteo Rosselli, ''L''Invention de la Vraie Croix'', conservé dans l''église des Santi Michele e Gaetano à Florence (fig. 1). Le personnage à gauche de notre dessin est préparatoire à l''homme qui soulève la croix tout à gauche du tableau. Le personnage à droite de notre feuille est préparatoire, avec des variantes au niveau de la main, à un homme sous la colonne à droite du tableau. Sur notre dessin la main de l''homme désigne la Vraie Croix, comme sur un dessin préparatoire de l''ensemble de la composition conservé au Gabinetto Nazionale delle Stampe (F.C.124993, voir cat. exp., Disegni Fiorentini, Rome, Gabinetto Nazionale, 1977, p. 59, n°94, repr.). Alors que dans le tableau définitif, la main de notre personnage désigne Sainte Hélène. Un dessin préparatoire pour une autre figure du même tableau, à droite de l''homme soulevant la Croix, est conservé à Stockholm au Nationalmuseum (voir P. Bjurstrom, C. Loisel, E. Pilliod, Italian drawings, Florence, Siena, Modena, Bologna, Stockholm, 2002, n°1163, repr.). Dans ce dessin, comme dans le nôtre, Matteo Rosselli utilise la technique aux deux crayons, qu''il affectionne particulièrement. Nous retrouvons d''autres feuilles de Matteo Rosselli de technique similaire, notamment au musée du Louvre (voir C. M. Goguel, Dessins toscans XVIe-XVIIIe siècles. T.II 1620-1800, Paris, 2005, n°510, repr. en couverture).

Matteo Rosselli, The Holy Family with John the Baptist
Est: €30,000 - €40,000
CertificateCarlo Volpe, Bologna (o.D.).The present work is an important early example of the work of the Florentine painter Matteo Rosselli. He uses the traditional Florentine cinquecento iconography to depict this scene: The Virgin faces the viewer, Saint Joseph stands in the background and the Christ Child turns to face the adoring John the Baptist.Rosselli was one of the leading painters in this city in the early 17th century. He received numerous important commissions and was employed by the Medici and Corsini families among others. Rosselli painted the frescoes in the Palazzo Pitti, the Villa di Poggio Imperiale and Casino Mediceo di San Marco and created numerous important altarpieces and decorative works for the abbey of Santissima Annunziata and many churches in Florence, Volterra and Pistoia. A great nephew of Michelangelo also entrusted him with the frescoes for the Casa Buonarroti, which show scenes from the life of the famous artist.Matteo Rosselli's many pupils included Baldassare Franceschini (il Volterrano), Lorenzo Lippi, Francesco Furini and Jacopo Vignali, testifying to the influence he had on the following generation of artists.

PROPERTY FROM THE JAN AND FREDERICK R. MAYER COLLECTION THE RESURRECTION measurements note 59 by 45 in.; 149 by 114.3 cm. oil on canvas NOTE The present unpublished painting is an important addition to the artist's oeuvre. Rosselli painted another treatment of the subject in 1647 for the Duomo of San Martino, Pietrasanta (Lucca) (see Arte sacra nella Versilia medicea: il culto e gli arredi, catalogue of the exhibition held at the Palazzo mediceo, Seravezza, August 5- October 15, 1995, Florence 1995, reproduced fig. 10). That altarpiece is slightly more vertical in format, and less elaborate in its figural composition, particularly in the number of angels and cherubim attendant on the figure of Christ. We are grateful to Francesca Baldassari who, based on photographs, has confirmed the present painting to be by Rosselli.
