Description

Giuseppe Maria Crespi The Rape of Europa Oil on canvas (relined). 64 x 90 cm. Provenance Tuscan aristocratic property from a private collection in Vienna. Literature Merriman, Mira Pajes: Giuseppe Maria Crespi. Milan, 1980, no. 157. Already during his lifetime, Crespi was considered among the most outstanding painters not only in Bologna and his native Italy, but also in Europe as a whole. Ferdinando de' Medici was a patron of his throughout his lifetime, as was Pope Benedict XIV, who was also born in Bologna. Dignitaries and art collectors such as Cardinals Pietro Ottoboni and Tommaso Ruffo owned important works by Crespi. Many of his paintings were in imperial possession or could be found in the residences of the German prince electors - and thus adorned the collections of Prince Eugene of Savoy, Johann Adam Andreas Prince of Liechtenstein, Landgrave Philipp of Hessen-Darmstadt and the Saxon elector and King August III of Poland, among others. Crespi was a contemporary of Stefano Magnasco and Sebastiano Ricci, whose works played an important role in the development of Italian Rococo painting. Crespi's works also exerted a strong influence on numerous renowned artists of the era, such as Ceruti and Bascheni in Lombardy, the young Tiepolo, Piazzetta, Bencovich and above all Pietro Longhi in Venice and Traversi in Naples. Crespi was known for rebelling against the artistic style imposed by the Academy. He relied on strong contrasts of colour and the use of chiaroscuro effects. Our work testifies to the virtuosity of this artist even as a young man. In her catalogue raisonné, Mira Pajes Merriman points out the clear similarities between our painting (no. 157) and Crespi's work "The Birth of Adonis" (no. 151). Giuseppe Maria Crespi Der Raub der Europa Öl auf Leinwand (doubliert). 64 x 90 cm. Provenienz Toskanischer Adelsbesitz aus einer Wiener Privatsammlung. Literatur Merriman, Mira Pajes: Giuseppe Maria Crespi, Mailand 1980, Nr. 157. Crespi zählte bereits zu Lebzeiten zu den hervorragendsten Malern nicht nur Bolognas und seines Heimatlandes Italiens, sondern auch innerhalb Europas. Ferdinando de Medici war Zeit seines Lebens mit ihm ebenso verbunden wie der aus Bologna stammende Papst Benedikt XIV. Würdenträger und Kunstsammler wie die Kardinäle Pietro Ottoboni und Tommaso Ruffo besaßen bedeutende Werke Crespis. Viele seiner Gemälde waren in kaiserlichem Besitz oder in den Residenzen deutscher Kurfürsten - und so zierten sie u.a. die Sammlungen des Prinzen Eugen von Savoyen, des Johann Adam Andreas Fürst von Liechtenstein, des Landgrafen Philipp von Hessen-Darmstadt und des sächsischen Kurfürsten und Königs August III. von Polen. Crespi war ein Weggefährte von Stefano Magnasco und Sebastiano Ricci, deren Werke eine herausragende Rolle in der Entwicklung der italienischen Rokokomalerei einnehmen. Crespis Werke zeigen einen deutlichen Einfluss auf namhafte Künstler wie Ceruti und Baschenis in der Lombardei, auf den jungen Tiepolo, sowie auf Piazzetta, Bencovich und vor allem Pietro Longhi in Venedig sowie auf Traversi in Neapel. Crespi war dafür bekannt, gegen den auferlegten akademischen Kunststil zu rebellieren. Er setzte auf starke Kontraste in seinem Gebrauch von Farben und seinem Einsatz von Hell-Dunkel-Effekten. Unser Werk zeigt die besondere Virtuosität des noch jungen Künstlers. Mira Pajes Merriman weist in dem von ihr verfassten Werkverzeichnis auf die deutlichen Gemeinsamkeiten unseres Gemäldes (Nr.157) mit Crespis Werk "Die Geburt des Adonis" (Nr. 151) hin.
