Two months had passed away since the marriage of Baldo and Alberica, and one morning, towards noon, the bride was reclining on a couch, in a large and richly decorated drawing-room. The walls were covered with pictures, and looking-glasses painted over with wreaths of exquisite flowers, while in the alternate spaces were enamelled frescoes. Alberica wore a handsome white morning dress, but her hair was in disorder, and she did not appear half so beautiful as when, sumptuously attired, she presented herself before her admirers. And it must, in truth, be confessed that art not only added to her charms, but, in no scanty measure, created them; for, in the morning, when Alberica first rose from her bed, she was not certainly the lovely woman she seemed in the evening. Possibly she might have been if she had not early adopted those cunning devices of the toilet which, while they increased her natural attractions for the time, made her in the end look prematurely old. Being naturally of a very fair complexion, there existed no necessity that she should render it whiter still by the use of a pomade which made her skin appear dazzlingly fair, but which afterwards made it rough and yellow. The carmine, which coloured her cheeks so exquisitely, had turned them to that yellow and pallid hue which is sometimes seen in those who endeavour to make themselves more beautiful than Dame Nature had created them. All in ATberica was artificial and unreal; but she would have been deemed quite beautiful enough if she had trusted to her own charms, and had not accustomed all who surrounded her to the adventitious beauties derived from art; and if she had not destroyed the fresh bloom of her complexion by corrosive unguents. Alberica was a sad...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this highly original study of Italian baroque master Guido Reni (1575-1642), Richard Spear paints a compelling portrait of the artist - his complexities, his formative experiences, his cultural surroundings, and his unique sensibilities. Spear views Reni's career from a wide variety of perspectives and sets his life and works in social, economic, historical, artistic, religious, and psychological contexts. The author focuses first on Reni's peculiar character: a man at once deeply religious, rabidly misogynist, reportedly virginal, neurotically fearful of witches, and addicted to gambling. The author considers the enduring charisma of Reni's Crucifixions, weeping Marys, and repentant saints in the light of the Catholic doctrinal meaning of grace in Reni's time, the Church's attitude toward Mary and women, and the gendered implications of visual grace. Chapters on Reni's pricing policies, selling strategies, use of assistants, and attitude toward what constituted an "original", expose the motivating importance of money for Reni, and the concerns, even among seventeenth-century collectors, about how to distinguish original paintings from studio replicas or copies. The book investigates the ways renaissance and baroque attitudes toward art-making affected Reni and closes with a fresh view of Reni's unfinished canvases and last style, including the Divine Love, the beautiful and unusual painting that remained in Reni's studio at the time of his death.

Download or read book The Life of Guido Reni written by conte Carlo Cesare Malvasia and published by Penn State University Press. This book was released on 1980 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main source of what we know about Guido Reni is The Life of Guido Reni by Malvasia. It lets us see a major artist of the Italian Baroque through the eyes of his own age. The text contains considerable detail on what Guido painted, as well as his commissions and patrons. As Reni's close friend, Malvasia took much of his material from first-hand knowledge; documentary evidence from the artist's recently discovered account book attests to the reliability of his biographer's text. But Malvasia's biography is far more than a chronicle of facts about Reni's art. Through a wealth of illustrative incidents based on eyewitness accounts we come to know Reni as an individual, driven by compulsions, beset by phobias, and isolated by pride. He appears as a man alone in a crowd, desperately anxious to defend his position as a major artist, enormously vulnerable to what were often imagined insults. We see him as an individual obsessed with sorcery and witchcraft and having an overwhelming compulsion for gambling that eventually brought about his ruin and hastened his death. No earlier biography provides so much material about an artist's inner life. The editors have added a substantial introductory essay to their translation of Reni's biography along with an analysis of the text and a section on Malvasia and his writings. Malvasia wrote the best early guidebook to the paintings of Bologna, and his vast compendium on the Bolognese School of painters is the most important regional "Lives of the Artists" that appeared in Italy during the 17th century. As this is the first book on Reni in English, the editors have added a section intended as an introduction to his rather complex stylistic development. Eight illustrations are included to show some of Reni's most important works.
