Description
Acquaforte, seconda metà del XVII secolo, priva di firma.
Da un soggetto di Annibale Carracci. Esemplare nel primo stato di due, avanti la firma. Bellissima prova, ricca di toni, impressa su carta vergata coeva con filigrana non leggibile, rifilata al rame, in ottimo stato di conservazione.
L’opera deriva dall’incisione di Annibale (B. 3) di cui il Viani è allievo per scuola. Il Bartsch non descrive esemplari senza la firma. Bibliografia: Bartsch 1; De Grazia 21c; Bertelà 873 I/II. Dimensioni 135x185.
Giovanni Maria VIANI (Bologna 1636 – Pistoia 1700)
He was a pupil of Flaminio Torri, and his first paintings (datable to c. 1650) suggest the art of Reni, absorbed through a study of Cantarini. Under the influence of Lorenzo Pasinelli, a colleague of his in Torri's workshop, his forms gained solidity, but the mood of his paintings remained elegiac.
