Description : Mare in burrasca

Oil on canvas. As signed by the label on the back, the painting was presented athe "Venetian Baroque Painting Exhibition" of 1943, with the title "in porto al tramonto" and the attribution to Marco Ricci. This attribution can be motivated by the executive ability, which through rapid and loose brushstrokes. It manages to fully render the natural reality of the stormy sea with sensivity. In this regard, see the similar images published by Rodolfo Pallucchini in the studies "Studi ricceschi: contributo a Marco published in the magazine Arte veneta (vol. IX, 1955). Ricci's landscape and marine productions (which, however, were not his most extensive production) are characterized by powerful and emotional lights, by dry and twisted trees, rocks and towers, cumulus clouds that suddenly break open in vague flashes of blue, foaming waves, a complex repertoire that transfigures nature into a dramatic and restless representation, in which man is also inserted as an integral element. Also in this painting we find these highly dramatic but at the same time scenographic elements, with some human figures, three men on a small boat in the foreground, who are barely distinguishable from the sea and the rocks that surround them, as well as the ship on the left sinking engulfed by the sea. Restored and relined, the painting is presented in a period frame.

Additional Information

Artist: Marco Ricci (1676-1730)

Marco Ricci, born on 5 June 1676 in Belluno, was a painter, landscape painter and engraver, son of Girolamo and nephew of Sebastiano. He was brought up by his uncle in Venice; his violent nature forced him to move to Split due to a fight, to then accompany his uncle to London and work with him. Various landscapes depicting the Dalmatian coast and the Piave date back to this period, in the style of Titian and mixed with fantastic schemes taken from romantic views of his immediate predecessors. Later, the knowledge of Alessandro Magnasco gave birth to a collection of marine storm scenes, with very dark tones. The similarity between the paintings of the Venetian and those of the Genoese is so great that it sometimes proves very difficult to attribute them to one of the two authors. Upon returning to Venice from London, Marco Ricci resumed his collaboration with his uncle, with whom he created the landscape masterpiece of the Miracle of Moses, a work in which the artist silhouettes figures of heroes against the light background given by the ruins. In his last period, the artist was the author of several temperas on parchment, which are now in Windsor Castle. Although he was predominantly a landscape painter, many caricatured portraits of dramatic actors remain of him. Ricci died by suicide on January 21, 1729.

Artistic technique: Painting

La pittura è l'arte che consiste nell'applicare dei pigmenti a un supporto come la carta, la tela, la seta, la ceramica, il legno, il vetro o un muro. Essendo i pigmenti essenzialmente solidi, è necessario utilizzare un legante, che li porti a uno stadio liquido, più fluido o più denso, e un collante, che permetta l'adesione duratura al supporto. Chi dipinge è detto pittore o pittrice. Il risultato è un'immagine che, a seconda delle intenzioni dell'autore, esprime la sua percezione del mondo o una libera associazione di forme o un qualsiasi altro significato, a seconda della sua creatività, del suo gusto estetico e di quello della società di cui fa parte.
