Ponte Vecchio. Un particolare poco visto(?)
È il simbolo degli Ufficiali di Torre, L'ente che provvide alla costruzione del Ponte Vecchio per conto del Comune di Firenze . Oggi si chiamerebbe ufficio Tecnico.

Vittorio Matteo Corcos
Stella e Piero, 1887
C’è un silenzio gentile in questo dipinto, fatto di luce filtrata, di attese e di pensieri non detti.

Negli Appartamenti Reali di Palazzo Pitti c’è un marmo che sembra una scena teatrale congelata nel silenzio: “Pia de’ Tolomei e Nello della Pietra” di Pio Fedi.

A series of ornate chandeliers inside a room with opulent ceilings, frescoes, detailed stucco and architectural elements, within the Palazzo Pitti. Decorated in the Neo-classical and Rococo style.

Vanilla Ice and Donald Trump would be mad jealous of this ceiling bling

Ecce Homo, bottega del Sodoma. Primo Cinquecento. Galleria Palatina, Palazzo Pitti. Cristo appena flagellato, corona di spine, mani legate. Due aguzzini emergono dal buio. Chiaroscuro serrato, pathos contenuto, dignità frontale.

"Alla fontana" (o "Le due colombe") è un dipinto del 1896 di Vittorio Matteo Corcos, che raffigura due colombe e un'elegante figura femminile presso una fontana, catturando l'essenza della Belle Époque con dettagli e una composizione raffinata.

Una cartolina d'autunno #PalazzoPitti

A white silk gown in fragments is splayed flat on a surface, softly lit from above. It has a train and is badly stained by the decomposition of the body that once wore it. It is embroidered in now-tarnished silver in wide bands along the edges.

Dear Internet:

I have now been PHYSICALLY PRESENT in the SAME ROOM as the burial gown of Eleonora di Toledo!!!

Here’s a Raphael painting, “Portrait of Leo X”. Leo X was a Medici. He was pope just prior the Protestant Reformation. Sounds like he implemented the practice of “indulgences” to pay to forgive sins., which really stuck in Luther’s craw. Another interesting historical fact from Wikipedia, Leo X was the last pope who was not a priest at the time of his election (in 1513).

A portrait of Saint Francis of Assisi. He was very different from Pope Leo X and the Medici dynasty.

Decorative details with a combination of classical figures (in gold) and more contemporary figures (I think) in off-white. Walking through the palace felt like being in a multi-layered Time Machine. Seemed to be a lot of mixed messages.

Here’s a REALLY LATE offering for #PalacesandGardens Thursday

We’re returning to #PalazzoPitti in #Florence with a focus on art works in the #palace

I was struck by the pervasive contemporary and historical images from Christianity and the many classical #Greek and #Roman references

Oh, well. There goes my credibility.

Yes! This (Titian's The Young Englishman, 1540-45) is the portrait that stopped me in my tracks in the Pitti Palace: a completely real person - although identity unknown in this case, I think - calmly looking back at the viewer.

In 1928, Italian artist Emilia de Divitiis portrayed herself in a formal pose, likely while painting. She is shown with her head turned, gazing slightly to the side. The artist represents herself with a serene face, smiling, dressed in the clothes of the trade. The colors vary from light to dark creating strong contrasts that are evident between the black of her short curly hair and the red of the drape in the background that contrasts with the white of her low-cut shirt and the paleness of her skin. The brushstrokes are short and contribute to creating this play of light and shadow on the fabric. The artist demonstrates the influence of her mentor Francesco Paolo Michetti and his naturalistic painting style, derived from the realism tradition of 19th century pictorials. De Divitiis, in fact, attended the "Conventino" of Francavilla a Mare for 8 years to learn from master Michetti … and it was precisely during this period that she made this work. In the following years, her painting grew closer to Cézanne's techniques and her attention moved to the more intimate subjects like family. This self portrait was donated by the artist in 1978 to the Modern Art Gallery of Palazzo Pitti (Galleria d’Arte Moderna di Palazzo Pitti).

Vittorio Matteo Corcos dipinge Alla fontana nel 1896, catturando la raffinatezza della Belle Époque. La giovane donna, seduta con grazia accanto alla fontana con il leone di Palazzo Pitti, incarna un’epoca di stile e contemplazione.
