Product Description

Synopsis

This richly illustrated publication brings together 93 paintings and 85 drawings from the Royal Collection, and accompanies an exhibition of international importance. These include works by Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, Bellini, Titian, Bronzino, Correggio, Parmigianino, Veronese, Lotto, Tintoretto, the Carracci, Caravaggio, the Gentileschi, Guido Reni and Guercino; together with others by artists rarely encountered in British collections, such as Andrea Schiavone, Francesco Salviati, Cristofano Allori and Giovanni Baglione. They range from small studies to large altarpieces, and from religious narratives to mythological subjects and portraiture. Many are discussed, in detail for the first time since the 1980s. Scholarly thinking from the last twenty years is presented and re-assessed, and fresh insights drawn from the latest reserach. In addition, recent cleaning and conservation has transformed opinion on a number of works, in particular "The Calling of Saints Peter and Andrew", a painting now thought to be by Caravaggio himself. This newly conserved work will be published here for its first showing in this country.

It will accompany the exhibition opening at The Queen's Gallery, Buckingham Palace in March 2007.

5.0 out of 5 stars A superb catalogue, 9 Oct 2007
The range of works of art exhibited is various:
There are some Renaissance masterpieces like 2 paintings by Correggio and 2 by Parmigianino, portraits by Lotto (The very famous "Andrea Odoni", for example) and other superb Venetians (Titian, Bassano, Tintoretto etc.).
But more interesting are the virtually unknown and newly restored Seicento pictures: Cagnacci, Baglione, two Caravaggio (but I think -and I'm sure I will not alone- only tke "Calling of St.Andrew" is original), Domenico Fetti, Annibale Carracci...
Among the drawings, Michelangelo and Raphael; and some antiquarian sheets from the Paper Museum of Cassiano dal Pozzo, maybe by Nicolas Poussin.
Perhaps the best surprise is to see the 12 coppers by Luca Giordano with the "Story of Amore and Psiche": wonderful!!
The reproductions in the catalogue are very good, with entries about each
work, and an interesting introduction by Martin Clayton about the collecting of Italian paintings in the Royal Family.
After London, there will be another venue in Edinburgh the next year.
