Each of the four parts consists of an essay by a specialist and around ten notes on individual works. The first analyses the lasting influence of Caravaggio's presence in Naples (1606-1607 and then 1609-1610) on the production of the city's artists, such as Caracciolo, Ribera, Ricca, Finoglio, Fracanzano and Cavallino, or the \"Master of the Annunciation to the Shepherds\", whose The Young Man with a Flower is one of the most emblematic works in the collection.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cspan\u003eWe then focus on three great protagonists of Neapolitan painting: Massimo Stanzione, author of the emblematic Saint John the Baptist in the Desert, as well as Mattia Preti and Luca Giordano, two great artistic individuals who had a profound impact on Neapolitan art in the second half of the 17th century.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe third period shows the evolution of Neapolitan painting of the Seicento under the classicizing influence of Roman and Emilian models, but also the interest in Venetian colors and models from Northern Europe, with works by Fracanzano, Cavallino, Vaccaro, De Bellis, Pacecco, Spinelli and Spadaro.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cspan\u003eWe also make an incursion into battle painting with Aniello Falcone.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cspan\u003eAlong with Rome, Naples thus established itself in the 17th century as the most brilliant center for still life, a genre in which great families of artists such as the Porporas, the Reccos and the Ruoppolos distinguished themselves.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Antinoë","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46507981242692,"sku":"26530","price":30.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/4043\/6408\/products\/85268_xl.jpg?v=1681213934","url":"https:\/\/anttopinoe.com\/en-en\/products\/naples-pour-passion-chefs-doeuvre-de-la-collection-de-vito","provider":"Antinoë","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
