He had a very tough time last week... just for us... Carlo Crivelli!    Here • The Dead Christ supported by Two Angels • from c.1475-80.     Even if your admiration for Italian Renaissance painting is more culturally received than deeply felt, Crivelli is your man.     In the 1460s, Crivelli was banished from Venice for committing adultery. He subsequently moved to the Marches region of northeast Italy, devoting his talents almost exclusively to religious commissions for churches and individuals.     Being very successful during his life, after his death in 1495, his reputation declined rapidly and his art has spent most of the last 526 years languishing on the margins of art history, considered parochial, conservative and overly decorative if not decadent. It also didn’t help that Vasari didn’t mention him in his “Lives of the Artists,” which concentrated on the creatives of Florence and Venice and steered generations of scholars in the same direction.     Yes, the naturalistic trends arising in Florence during his lifetime, are not visible in these works.   Yes, the Gothic gold, which he punched with brocaded patterns or integrated into his scenes with overpainting, while adding gold touches to other areas are often there.   Yes, he employed pastiglia, building up images with low-relief plaster that he painted and gilded, heightening the presence of precious details.     Yes, it is all there, fabulously and bold.     This frameless masterpiece of Renaissance (sur)realism was originally the pinnacle, or crowning element, of an altarpiece, probably for an Dominican convent.     The Dominicans are known for dwelling on the suffering of Christ, as well is Crivelli.   Do you see the wounds, graying skin and angels tears?      #carlocrivelli #crivelli #art #artist #painter #tempera #gold #panel #fashion #arthistory #miracle #storytelling #passion #christ #angels #pieta #magic #sorrow #death #realism #surrealism #gothic #religiousart #renaissance #figuration #figurative #figurativeart #theamazingpoppingeyes #philadelphia https://www.instagram.com/p/CNS9upJAF8C/?igshid=1xscset1appp
