‎[VENICE] NOVELLI, Francesco (1764-1836)‎

‎A late eighteenth early nineteenth century album containing forty six fine watercolours‎

‎Probably Venice 1825. A few spots but generally in fine condition the watercolours well preserved and bright. Oblong small quarto album 185 x 275mm containing forty-six watercolours of various sizes and shapes ranging from delicate circular vignettes to larger scenes of urban and theatrical life elegantly bound in nineteenth-century ochre morocco with ornate gilt decoration. <p><p>A beautiful suite of watercolours including a superb series of scenes of a contemporary Venetian commedia dell'arte troupe by the Venetian painter and engraver Novelli. Featuring images from both the stage and street-performance including acrobatics and conjuring each of the 46 deftly drawn images of which 11 are signed is of considerable quality. </p> <p>Francesco Novelli 1764-1836 vividly and imaginatively illustrated Algarotti's Opere 1791-94 assisting his father Don Quixote 1819 and Gil Blas 1820. He is also known for illustrating works such as the Fasti Veneziani 1794 hinting at his abiding interest in the theatre and the performing arts. </p> <p>One of Novelli's most important teachers was the French artist Vivant Denon who visited Venice in the 1790s. Denon seems to have had a formative influence on Novelli's career not least because he introduced his pupil to the engravings of Rembrandt. This rare and exceptional collection provides a wonderful insight into Italian theatre in its golden age. The album includes an incomparable collection of Novelli's watercolours with the greatest number being piquant images of a Venetian troupe of the commedia dell'arte with especially fine depictions of Pierrot himself as well as other key figures such as Columbine and Harlequin. It includes a remarkable series of scenes from a stage play as well as studies of the individual performers. Indeed many of these images are so precisely rendered that it is likely that Novelli depicts a well-known troupe perhaps one with which he was personally connected.</p> <p>The remaining images cover all aspects of contemporary life including several military vignettes perhaps scenes from the diorama as well as charming rural scenes. Several show Novelli's work at its most sympathetic especially in his animated studies of street vendors and town squares. It is also likely that many of these scenes derive from a period when the troupe was on the road especially as some of the liveliest show street performers conjurors and Punch and Judy shows. These scenes reveal Novelli at the height of his powers especially his skill in capturing the energy and fascination of the crowds that gathered to watch the impromptu performances.</p> <p>Unpublished although the compilation of the album suggests that publication might originally have been Novelli's intention. This is a superb collection of images by one of the pre-eminent artists of his generation providing an insight into Novelli's involvement with the Venetian theatre as well as giving a unique opportunity to study the daily life of a travelling group of European artists and musicians at the turn of the nineteenth century.</p> <p>Make-up of the album:-</p> <p>• three portraits of peasants:</p> <p>• a fishmonger with his left sleeve hanging loose</p> <p>• a peasant women with a cob of corn</p> <p>• a profile of a woman in an elaborate scarf</p> <p>• a uniformed cuirassier rejects the entreaty of a woman</p> <p>• a lively scene at the market with a grenadier a Pierrot and a harlequin</p> <p>• a crowd gathers around a conjuror in the town square</p> <p>• children animatedly watch a Punch and Judy show</p> <p>• a street performer shows a dancing bear while an urchin shows a monkey</p> <p>• two small round scenes:</p> <p>• the first of a cavalry charge</p> <p>• the second a peaceful domestic scene around the hearth</p> <p>• an infantry charge perhaps a real scene or a diorama</p> <p>• three generations of women interior</p> <p>• a lively outdoors scene of the stables</p> <p>• two women work inside a darkened barn</p> <p>• four liveried horses with a cart full of hay</p> <p>• two small round scenes:</p> <p>• a scene in the yard of a hostelry</p> <p>• cooking in a well-provisioned kitchen</p> <p>• two small square scenes:</p> <p>• infants and burghers at a Punch and Judy show</p> <p>• small children crowd around an itinerant projectionist</p> <p>• two small square scenes:</p> <p>• dancing a lively jig</p> <p>• the children of the house at lessons</p> <p>• two small square scenes:</p> <p>• a muzzled bear is made to dance</p> <p>• masked members of a commedia dell'arte troupe enjoy a repast</p> <p>• two small square scenes:</p> <p>• a corpulent gent mounts his horse</p> <p>• a befrocked gentleman loses his hat in an impromptu swing</p> <p>• two small square scenes:</p> <p>• a mother with swaddled child and infant greets some friends</p> <p>• a game of cards</p> <p>• two small square scenes:</p> <p>• Pierrot chased by a 'dog'</p> <p>• Pierrot discovers Harlequin and Columbine with stylized cartouche but no caption</p> <p>• three medium square scenes:</p> <p>• the 'dog' seems to have caught Pierrot</p> <p>• Pierrot greets Columbine</p> <p>• Pierrot astride the 'dog'</p> <p>• two small square scenes:</p> <p>• a strongman lifts four children on a table by his teeth</p> <p>• Columbine's lover hides by pretending to be a sofa</p> <p>• two small square scenes:</p> <p>• Pierrot performs a balancing act</p> <p>• Pierrot discovers Harelquin and Columbine asleep</p> <p>• two small square scenes:</p> <p>• Pierrot accosted by a Satyr</p> <p>• Pierrot offers his hat to the 'dog'</p> <p>• two small square scenes:</p> <p>• an acrobat assumes a pose</p> <p>• a different acrobat stands on his hands</p> <p>• two small square scenes:</p> <p>• a female contortionist performs a trick with four glasses and a hoop</p> <p>• a female acrobat balances on the low-wire</p> <p>• two small square scenes:</p> <p>• one of the troupe strikes a pose</p> <p>• Pierrot discovers a skeleton in his closet</p> <p>• two small square scenes:</p> <p>• the skeleton torments Pierrot at table</p> <p>• Pierrot poses</p> </p> . unknown‎

Venice then shows itself united eternal strong and indestructible</i>. "<br /><br />One of the great moments of this frenzied proclamation of the political perfection of Venice is the rite of the <i>trionfo </i>- or ducal procession - where hierarchy order harmony and collective respect are the characteristics of this state liturgy.<br /><br />This urban rite we could even say ritual is a great moment in the political life - and in the life itself - of Venice. Indeed the ducal procession is intended to be a proclamation of the cohesion of the State and its strong structure in the eyes of the Venetians as in the eyes of foreigners who will necessarily receive echoes. The Milanese Pietro Casolo passing through Venice at the end of the 16th century was impressed by the unchanging - and disciplined - ordering of these Venetian processions:<br /><br /><i>In my opinion one man seemed to rule all things and he was obeyed by all without resistance. It filled me with admiration as I have never seen such a discipline at similar shows.</i><br /><i>They walk two by two behind the doge in a completely different order from what I have seen in many religious or secular courts where as soon as the prince has passed everything goes in all directions and in disorder. Here in front and behind everything is as in a perfect order as possible.</i><br /><br />The ordering and place of each are not the result of chance but the result of a rigorously thought out and unchanging ceremony. This immutability is demonstrated by the existence of commented engravings that is to say that the artists note the order of the succession of the characters as an element as perennial as the architectures that frame this ceremony. An example the engraving of Giacomo Franco which shows us the beginning of the procession which enters the basilica. The frieze arrangement evokes the Roman triumphs of the Ara Pacis or Trajan's Column."

‎Fra Mauro's mappamundi, drawn around 1450 in the monastery of San Michele on Murano in the lagoon of Venice, is among the most relevant compendia of knowledge of the Earth and the Cosmos of the fifteenth century. By examining literary, visual, textual and archival evidences, some long considered lost, this book places the map within the larger context of Venetian culture in the fifteenth century. It provides a detailed analysis of both its main sources (auctores veteres such as Pliny, Solinus, Ptolemy, and novi, like Albert the Great, Thomas Aquinas, Marco Polo and Niccolo de' Conti) as well as of the composite networks of contemporary knowledge (scholasticism, humanism, monastic culture, as well as more technical skills such as marine cartography and mercantile practices), investigating the way they combine in the epistemological unity of the imago mundi. More a work on intellectual history than cartography, the book constructs a complex set of frameworks within which to situate Fra Mauro's monumental effort. These range from the cultural history of the reception of the world map from the fifteenth to the nineteenth centuries to the analysis of the material conditions under which map-makers such as Fra Mauro worked; from the history of ideas, especially of natural philosophy to the links between world representations and travel literature. It also addresses the Venetian reception of Ptolemy's Geography, the interactions between Venetian art, theology and cosmography and the complexities of the Venetian vernacular. The books develops a multi-tiered approach, in which different elements of the rich cultural context in which this world map was created, interact with each other, each casting a new light on the encyclopaedic work being analyzed.

‎Une "Venise vivante, habitée et sensuelle, qui regorge de saveurs et de rencontres", par l'écrivain Marc ALYN qui y fit de nombreux séjours: "Dans les églises, sous les porches, au coin des canaux, dans les palais, [il] nous donne accès à une Venise secrète, celle des arcanes du tarot et de la vie cachée des Vénitiens. Sept voyageurs transfigurés accompagnent ce périple dans la Cité : D'Annunzio, Brodsky, Wagner, Byron, le baron Corvo, Corto Maltese et Ezra Pound. Avec vigueur et style, Marc Alyn renouvelle l'approche et la sensibilité à l'égard d'une ville tant parcourue et magnifiée sous toutes ses formes dans la littérature" (4è de couverture); index. 1ère édition; exemplaire avec critique de Josyane Savigneau (coupure du "Monde" de mai 2005).‎
