  • Portrait Dated 1512, at the State Hermitage Museum1
    542 Giovanna Perini Folesani УДК: 75.041.5 ББК: 85.103(4)5 А43 DOI: 10.18688/aa177-5-55 Giovanna Perini Folesani Dominicus Who? Solving the Riddle Posed by a Splendid “Venetian” Portrait Dated 1512, at the State Hermitage Museum1 It takes some real quality for a Renaissance portrait to be able to hang close to Giorgione’s Judith in the same museum room without fading or being overshadowed2 (Ill. 124). The high quality of this problematic picture is further proven by its seventeenth-century attribution to Giorgione (who died two years before it was painted) [70, I, p. 105; 15, p. 190]. It is no coinci- dence that this very portrait was chosen for the dust-jacket of the official catalogue in English of the Venetian paintings in the State Hermitage Museum published in the 1990s [31] and has recently travelled to Australia along with other masterpieces from St. Petersburg3. Still, its attri- bution and iconography have proven elusive so far. Its current, yet not undisputed attribution to Domenico Capriolo, a minor Giorgionesque painter, is untenable on both stylistic and historical grounds4. A comparison with his one undis- puted portrait of Lelio Torelli, signed and dated 1528 [23, XIX, pp. 210–211; 87, V, pp. 557–558; 77, XVI, pp. 281–282; 89, IX/3, p. 548, fig. 374], shows that sixteen years later, far from im- proving as an artist, Domenico Capriolo (if he were the author of the State Hermitage picture) would paint in a stiffer, more elementary, much less imaginative and elegant way, having but a clumsy grasp on perspective.

  • Tizians Frauenbild 16
    5. OKTOBER 2021 BIS TIZIANS FRAUENBILD 16. JÄNNER 2022 Schönheit – Liebe – Poesie Im Herbst stehen im Kunsthistorischen Museum jedes Jahr die Alten Meister im Fokus: Die Ausstellung Tizians Frauenbild konzentriert sich anhand von rund 60 Gemälden aus internationalen Sammlungen auf die Darstellung der Frau im Œuvre Tizians (um 1488‒1576) und seiner Zeitgenossen Jacopo Tintoretto, Paolo Veronese, Paris Bordone und Lorenzo Lotto. Die Prominenz der Frau in der Malerei Venedigs im 16. Jahrhundert hat vielerlei Ursachen, etwa die politisch-soziale Struktur der Serenissima, die der Frau bezüglich der Mitgift und des Erbes eigene Rechte zugestand, oder das kulturell aufgeschlossene und internationale Klima der Stadt: Einflussreiche Verlage zogen namhafte Poeten und Humanisten an – darunter Pietro Bembo, Sperone Speroni und Ludovico Dolce ‒, die in ihren Schriften der Frau und der Liebe besondere Aufmerksamkeit schenkten. Den entscheidenden Anstoß in der visuellen Umsetzung gab Tizian, der bedeutendste Maler, den die Stadtrepublik je hervorbrachte. Seine neuartigen Schöpfungen wurden wegweisend für die europäische Malerei der nachfolgenden Jahrhunderte. Die Ausstellung möchte den Facettenreichtum des Themas zeigen und die unterschiedlichen Gesten, Blicke und Attribute genauer ins Auge fassen. Vom konkreten Porträt zu idealisierten, von der Poesie inspirierten Abwandlungen werden die Themen Liebe und Begehren in historischen, mythologischen und allegorischen Darstellungen in Szene gesetzt. Bei den realen und idealen Porträts werden auch Mode, Haartracht und kostbare Schöpfungen der Goldschmiedekunst der Zeit analysiert. Die umfangreiche zeitgenössische Traktatliteratur und Liebeslyrik bieten dabei eine solide Grundlage, solche einzigartigen Darstellungen von Frauen neu zu lesen. Die Ausstellung wird von Sylvia Ferino-Pagden, Francesca Del Torre Scheuch und Wencke Deiters kuratiert und im Kunsthistorischen Museum Wien sowie danach im Palazzo Reale in Mailand zu sehen sein.
