Sebastiano Conca
(Gaeta 1676–1764 Naples) Madonna in the glory, with a praying pope, a kneeling monarch and crowd of people, pen and brown ink, watercolor, over traces of pencil, on firm laid paper, 27,4 x 20,6 cm, browned, foxing, mounted, unframed, (Sch)
Provenance: Private collection, Italy.
With a certificate of Prof. Donatella Biagi Maino.
Comparative Literature: A. E. Pèrez Sànchez, I grandi disegni italiani nelle collezioni di Madrid, Milan 1977, p. 260; M. B. Mena Marqués, Museo del Prado. Catalogo de Dibujos, VII, Dibujos Italianos del Siglo XVIII, Madrid 1990, p. 49.
According to Prof. Biagi Maino the present study is stylistically comparable with two drawings by Sebastiano Conca in the Museo del Prado: Saint Anne teaching young Mary (Inv. F. D.1.554) and a study for „The dream of Saint Joseph“ (Inv. F. D.1.550). Both sheets show a similar brush stroke with emphasis on the contour lines of the figures and a lively and fluid coloring, which are characteristic for the Roman formation of the artist and the influence of the Rococo-style on him.
