These are flanked by several from Bergamo, demonstrating how two cities so distant geographically, in reality entertain interesting exchanges not only commercial, but also cultural and artistic.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>The connecting city between the two protagonists of the exhibition is undoubtedly Venice, which in the middle of the century recorded a particular appreciation for Neapolitan painting, a success that also reverberated in the territories culturally subject to it, first and foremost Bergamo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Naturally, the exhibition opens with a quick but necessary presentation of the pictorial situation in the Neapolitan land at the beginning of the 17th century, certainly influenced by the art of <strong>Michelangelo Merisi known as Caravaggio<\/strong>, who stayed here twice, first in 1606 and then again in 1610.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div

of his stylistic features continue to be recognisable in his mid-century production. In these years, artistically strong personalities such as <strong>Mattia Preti<\/strong> and <strong>Luca Giordano<\/strong> emerge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The former, originally from Calabria, but present in the city for a long period from 1653 to 1660, is presented in the exhibition with two works: the &#8220;Scena di carit\u00e0 con fanciulli mendicanti&#8221; (Charity Scene with Beggar Children), which goes beyond the genre scene to become almost an allegorical representation, and the Deposition, already belonging to the Maltese period, which shows the adoption of a brighter palette and a daring resolution in the foreshortened view from below upwards of the figure of Christ.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Giordano, who is further developed in the following rooms by virtue of his relationship with the city of Bergamo, is initially presented with a work belonging to the early phase of his production, which demonstrates the influence of northern European graphics, but later developed into his own very personal style that was to influence his circle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As briefly mentioned, Luca Giordano also played a particularly important role for the city of Bergamo. Of clear fame, he was called upon, thanks to the mediation of the Venetian merchant Simone Giogalli, by the Consortium of the Misericordia Maggiore (MIA) in 1681, to paint a large canvas depicting the Crossing of the Red Sea, for the back wall of the basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore in the Upper City.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"824\" src=\"https:\/\/fineart.dimanoinmano.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-07-08-at-10.16.11.jpeg\" alt=\"Napoli to Bergamo, Accademia Carrara\" class=\"wp-image-2097\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fineart.dimanoinmano.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-07-08-at-10.16.11.jpeg 1600w, https:\/\/fineart.dimanoinmano.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-07-08-at-10.16.11-300x155.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/fineart.dimanoinmano.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-07-08-at-10.16.11-1024x527.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/fineart.dimanoinmano.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-07-08-at-10.16.11-768x396.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/fineart.dimanoinmano.co.uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-07-08-at-10.16.11-1536x791.jpeg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>he correspondence shows how the patrons wanted the canvas to be completely autographed by the master, without the intervention of any of his collaborators, and therefore asked their Neapolitan contacts to supervise the work. The result was so much appreciated that the Consortium asked Giordano to do the decoration of the vault as well, but as he had to leave for Spain, he left the work in favour of his disciple <strong>Nicola Malinconico<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>An entire room of the exhibition is dedicated to four canvases by Giordano&#8217;s hand, currently in Pedrengo (in the nearby of Bergamo), but originally from a Venetian collection.
