Inchiostro e matita rossa misure: mm 291 x 214 Pittore italiano. Dopo un primo periodo a Como presso il ritrattista Girolamo Caprera, si trasferisce a Bologna dove frequenta la bottega del pittore Gabriele Ferrantini. Scoperto poi da Girolamo Curti, detto il Dentone, caposcuola dei quadraturisti bolognesi, diviene suo collaboratore. Inizialmente apprezzato come prospettico, il Colonna si perfezionò nella pittura di figura. Proprio come figurista segue il Curti a Ravenna, a Ferrara, a Parma nel 1628, e ancora a Modena nel 1631-32 e nel frattempo nell'atelier del Curti vediamo anche Agostino Mitelli. Tra i due artisti inizia una forte collaborazione che li vede impegnati in moltissimi e importanti cantieri fra cui nel 1665-67 quello di Bologna per la cappella del Rosario nella chiesa di S. Domenico. Il soggetto di questo straordinario foglio è lo studio preparatorio per uno degli angeli che reggono la grande corona di fiori nella Cappella del Rosario, l'artista studia diverse prospettive scorciate della figura. Opera inedita caratterizzata da un tratto fine e deciso. Due disegni ex collezione Villani oggi presso i Musei Civici di Reggio Emilia e relativi al medesimo cantiere sono un puntuale termine di confronto stilistico. Disegno applicato su carta antica del XVIII secolo, a sua volta montato su controfondo azzurro della fine del XVIII secolo. Iscrizione a penna sul montaggio in basso al centro: "Michele Colona Bolognese”. Il disegno è stato vincolato dalla Sovrintendenza archeologia belle arti e paesaggio di Milano in data 29 ottobre 2019 perché ritenuto di "interesse storico e artistico particolarmente importante" Bibliografia: R.Roli, Pittura bolognese 1650-1800.

Penna, acquerello grigio e acquerello color bistro chiaro misure: mm 424 x 255 L’imponente studio architettonico è composto da un solido basamento a forma circolare su cui poggiano delle colonne con capitelli delineati in un riecheggiante stile corinzio. Al centro della composizione vi è la Sacra Famiglia, con la Vergine inginocchiata posta sulla sinistra mentre sorregge il Bambino in fasce. Sopra di esso tre cherubini lo vegliano. A destra San Giuseppe stante osserva il tenero gruppo tenendo le mani appena alzate in un delicato atteggiamento di amorevole contemplazione. Nella parte superiore la porzione centrale della trabeazione e il tetto sono spettacolarmente squarciati da un trionfo di angeli e angioletti; che emergono dall’apparizione celestiale emanata dalla figura del Padre, posto sull’apice della composizione. La luce propagata dal divino intervento si diffonde in tutte le direzioni, concentrandosi con grande effetto scenografico sulla Sacra Famiglia sottostante. Nonostante a tutt’oggi rimanga ancora anonimo, l’autore ci rivela qualcosa di sé grazie ad un linguaggio che riporta con una certa immediatezza alla cultura grafica francese del XVIII secolo, ed in particolare al vasto seguito di Francois Boucher, maestro incontrastato del gusto Rococò. Le fisionomie delle figure, le anatomie infantili affrontate con soffici volumi, le acquerellature dai toni leggeri stese con veloci campiture attentamente distribuite e ancora l’ariosità e teatralità della composizione fanno propendere per la cultura figurativa d’oltralpe. Nonostante ciò vi sono elementi che curiosamente riportano anche al linguaggio barocco, come ad esempio le vesti di San Giuseppe e della Vergine, che nel loro complesso svolgimento rimembrano i panneggi della Roma del ‘600. La stessa accentuata teatralità strizza l’occhio ai grandi progetti barocchi della lunga stagione berniniana. Segno forse di un viaggio di formazione in Italia che l’autore, come del resto molti del suo tempo, può aver affrontato per scoprire i tesori della Penisola e studiare da vicino i Maestri del passato. Ed è forse a quel periodo della vita dell’artista che il disegno risale, magari come esercizio di copia di un progetto o di un altare ad oggi noi ignoto o non ancora identificato; oppure come prova in cui il disegnatore mette in pratica le nozioni apprese a seguito del lungo pellegrinaggio in Italia. Opera in ottimo stato di conservazione, con le parti acquerellate ben apprezzabili in tutti i delicati passaggi tonali. Leggero foxing nella parte superiore a destra. Una piega centrale orizzontale appena visibile. Foglio applicato su supporto cartaceo del XVIII secolo. In basso a sinistra a china color seppia: “Boucher”. Filigrana: “Serpente”. Bibliografia: J. Bean, “15th-18th Century French Drawings in the Metropolitan Museum of Art”, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1986.

1930Best.-Nr. I7D9LIPN5PS6London 1930. In a wooden frame ca. 53 x 64 cm under glass. Matt silver print ca. 28 x 36 cm watercolour pastel gouache and oil paint. Mounted on paper in a passe-partout. Signed "Lafayette" in pencil on the mount. Impressively coloured photographic portrait of the Saudi crown prince Saud 1902-1969 by the eminent London photographic studio Lafayette. Prince Saud the future King Saud of Saudi Arabia had been appointed crown prince in 1933 and fought in the 1934 war against Yemen. After the war his father encouraged him to travel abroad and over the next few years he visited Saudi-Arabia's neighbours Europe and the United States. While in London Prince Saud had his portrait taken by the Lafayette studio originally established in Dublin in 1880. It is no coincidence that Prince Saud chose a firm that had photographed numerous emperors kings sultans earls early movie stars etc. The firm would also provide hand coloured prints on request and the current photograph is an example of the very high quality they provided. The photograph of Prince Saud was coloured by painting over the photograph with watercolours and pastel. A subsequent treatment made it possible to use tiny drops of oil paint to highlight the gold trimming on his robe the jewels and pearls on his sword and the small lights in his eyes. In very good condition with only very minor craquelure. A colour portrait of the future King Saud of Arabia: a photograph enhanced by an expert painter from the leading British firm for the genre.l For Lafayette: Russell Harris Narrated in calm prose. unknown
