Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Caravaggio's brief stay in Naples from 1606 to 1607 marked a turning point for Neapolitan painting, ushering in a new era characterized by his unflinching realism and dramatic chiaroscuro. This influence was pivotal in establishing a distinctive painting school of European significance. Neapolitan Baroque art is noted for its sensuality, starkness, keen observation, and celebratory exuberance, reflecting themes of poverty, brutality, and decay. The book explores the rapid and diverse evolution of Neapolitan Baroque painting through an array of masterpieces by renowned artists such as Jusepe de Ribera, Artemisia Gentileschi, Mattia Preti, Luca Giordano, and Francesco Solimena. It highlights the competing tendencies and rivalries among artists, enriched by numerous hand drawings that provide direct insights into their creative processes. The featured artists include Bartolomeo Bassante, Giovanni Battista Beinaschi, Antonio De Bellis, Agostino Beltrano, and many others, each contributing to the vibrant tapestry of this artistic movement. The work captures the dynamic interplay of styles and influences that defined the Baroque period in Naples, celebrating its rich artistic heritage.
