The elegant canvas we are offering can easily be traced back to the oeuvre of the Milanese painter Francesca Volò Smiller, known as Vincenzina (Milan, 1657–1700), a refined specialist in this genre and an important member of the largest and most prolific family of Milanese painters of the 17th century;
The founder of this “family enterprise” of the highest caliber and equal success was her father, the Frenchman naturalized as an Italian, Vincenzo Volò, known as Vincenzino dei Fiori (1601–1671), who, in addition to Francesca, also employed her brother Giuseppe Volò (also nicknamed “Vicenzino”) and her sister Margherita Volò Caffi.
In her works, the painter displays clear similarities to her brothers’ style, particularly Margherita’s, yet also exhibits specific and independent characteristics.
Francesca’s painting is characterized by high technical quality and the rendering of flowers through an intense and heartfelt naturalism, with a predominance of bright, cool, acid-hued colors enlivened by touches of deep red and illuminated by the skillful use of white; Like Margherita, Francesca arranges flowers with great compositional freedom in a raised vase whose sparkling colors (primarily pink, white, and red) emerge from the dark background.
The subject matter, animated by vivid light, acquires a particular softness—delicate and virtuosic in the definition of the vase’s reflections and the translucency of the petals.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
The work is sold complete with a gilded wooden frame and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and a descriptive iconographic sheet.
We handle and arrange the shipping of purchased works, both within Italy and internationally, through professional and insured carriers. It is also possible to view the painting at our gallery in Riva del Garda; we would be delighted to welcome you to show you our collection of works.
