Item description

Description: Pair of ancient oil on canvas paintings attributed to the Neapolitan painter "Domenico Brandi" depicting the Mammolo bridge and an idyllic landscape with figures. The painting depicts an idyllic landscape with classical architectural ruins reminiscent of ancient Rome, where shepherds and livestock near a stream are visible in the foreground. The other painting presents a contrast between a dark foreground populated by shepherds and flocks and a background with ruins (Ponte Mammolo) and a cloudy sky. Historical notes: Accompanied by contemporary golden frames, the canvases are attributed to the Neapolitan landscape painter Domenico Brandi. Trained by his father, a skilled perspective painter and decorator, our artist looked at the Neapolitan landscape tradition, in particular that of Gargiulo, before embarking on the journey to Rome where he carried out his activity in the workshop of Rosa da Tivoli. In the Eternal City Domenico acquired his master's illustrative taste and delicate bucolic spirit. Our paintings express very well this mix between literary tradition and picturesque vision of nature, which will be predominant in all his production. In fact, he will be remembered by De Dominici as a painter of animalier subjects, with results that will influence the art of Michele Pagano (Naples, 1697; 1732) and Nicola Viso (1724; 1742). Provenance: Naples, early 18th century. Measurements: 155x115 cm. Condition: Small defects on the frames. Document: Certificate of Authenticity.
