Triumph of flowers in a bronze vase on a stone surface, XVII century
Oil painting on canvas
100cm x 75cm
The individual works of the painter created for the most important clients experiment with a new, very elegant and rich style, aimed at breaking away from a strictly botanical and didactic repertoire. In this work, the painter strengthens his inventiveness by reaching the highest level of quality with refined floral compositions in single vases. The central nucleus: delphiniums, tulips, carnations, roses, etc. emanate a central light that makes them alive and light as feathers which is matched by the painter's sensitivity and Caravaggesque aesthetics by placing the flowers behind them in chiaroscuro shadow. In this way the chromatic happiness of the first floor is embellished. Typical of Mario dè Fiori: the Caravaggism inherited from Salini, the exhibition imprint, the detailed description of the flowers permeated by a luministic chromaticism. Furthermore, the reference to the tradition of the Flemish and Dutch masters of the end of the 1500s is evident. Despite the frontal setting of the painting, the airy arrangement of the flowers gives a spatial depth and breadth of breath to the floral composition. Oval in coeval giltwood frame.
