  • Canova's George Washington
    CANOVA’S GEORGE WASHINGTON EXHIBITION ADDRESSES CANOVA’S ONLY WORK FOR UNITED STATES May 23 through September 23, 2018 In 1816, the General Assembly of North Carolina commissioned a full-length statue of George Washington to stand in the rotunda of the State Capitol, in Raleigh. Thomas Jefferson, believing that no American sculptor was up to the task, recommended Antonio Canova (1757– 1822), then one of Europe’s most celebrated artists. The first and only work Canova created for the United States, the statue depicted the nation’s first president in ancient Roman garb—all’antica armor—per Jefferson’s urging, drafting his farewell address to the states. It was unveiled to great acclaim in 1821. Tragically, a decade later, a fire swept through the State Capitol, reducing the statue to a few charred fragments. On May 23, The Frick Collection presents Canova’s George Washington, an exhibition that examines the history of the artist’s lost masterpiece. The show brings together for the first time all of the objects connected to the creation of the sculpture— including a remarkable life-sized Antonio Canova, Modello for George Washington (detail), 1818, modello that has never before left Italy—and tells the extraordinary plaster, Gypsotheca e Museo Antonio Canova, Possagno, Italy; photo Fabio Zonta, Fondazione Canova onlus, Possagno transatlantic story of this monumental work. The life-size modello, above, provides the closest idea of what the destroyed marble would have looked like. It is shown in the Frick’s Oval Room—alone—to replicate the effect it would have had in the rotunda of North Carolina’s State Capitol.

I). The monumental palace stretches for eighty ,five metres along the Western flank of the piazza from the Southern corner coward the Northern end. The exceptionally long fapde is organised into a symmetrical sequence of bays with a projecting central section and is buttressed, at the North end, by a distinct fapde with a large serliana win, dow (an arch with crabeaced sides). The exterior boasts a profusion of ornament that enlivens the surface and punctuates the horizontality of the building. Through sheer scale and abundance of form, the Palazzo Pamphilj bespeaks grandeur and authority. Architecture serves the rhetorical functions of communication and persuasion. In the early modem period (ca. 1500-1800), palaces in particular became synonymous with the statm of their owners. Today, the Palazzo Pamphilj houses the Embassy of Brazil in Rome, but until the government ofBrazil purchased the palace in 1960, it had belonged to the Pamphilj family.

Yet behind the city's great monuments and museums lies a Rome unknown to even the most seasoned visitors. Our exceptional program offers an intimate group of discerning travelers unprecedented access to Rome's most exclusive and evocative treasures—a secret Rome of exquisite palazzi, villas and gardens, world-class art collections and momentous and behind-the-scenes sites accessible only to the privileged few. By exclusive personal invitation of Italian nobility, ambassadors, curators and eminent members of the Roman elite, for eight unprecedented days we will discover, with their owners, exemplary private palazzi, castles and villas—rarely, if ever, opened to the public—in the city and surrounding countryside, as well as legendary archeological sites open only by special request. During our privileged, exclusive discovery, we will observe the development of Roman architecture, décor, art and landscape design with expert lecturers, architect Thomas Rankin, historian Anthony Majanlahti and art historians Sara Magister and Frank Dabell. Program Day 1: Saturday, October 3rd Afternoon welcome and visit to the Capitoline Museums, with Professor Thomas Greene Rankin. Professor Rankin and Pamela Hunting Darling will welcome you with a brief introduction to our exceptional program, followed by a walk with Professor Rankin to the Capitoline, the most important of the Seven Hills of Rome, where we will visit the Capitoline Museums to view masterpieces of classical sculpture to set the context of the “Grand Tour.” Late afternoon private reception at the Cavalieri di Rodi, headquarters of the Knights of Malta.
