Vincenzo GEMITO (Naples 1852 – 1929) Portrait of Mariano Fortuny, C Vincenzo GEMITO (Naples 1852 – 1929) Portrait of Mariano Fortuny, c. 1880 Bronze, H. 65 x 37 x 39 cm Conception: 1874 Signed on the left: Gemito Provenance: Rome, private collection Bibliographical references: Eugenia Querci, Gemito, Morelli, Mancini e il soggiorno a Napoli di Mariano Fortuny Marsal (1874), in «Storia dell'arte», n.133, 2012, pp. 131-151. The Portrait of Mariano Fortuny by Vincenzo Gemito under discussion in this paper is a cast of very lofty technical and formal quality. In this bust, which he designed while still only a very young man, Gemito reveals both his outstanding talent for vibrant naturalism and his skill in capturing a sitter's temperament thanks to his mastery of the realistic rendering of his sitter's facial features. The figure is deep in thought, his noble profile crowned by the thick, ruffled hair typical of a Romantic, modelled with strong and vibrant chiaroscuro. Every part of the sculpture's surface conveys the feeling of a living being, communicating a secret inner energy which seems to pervade the bronze thanks to an extremely painterly approach to modelling. Mariano Fortuny's head is inclined to one side in an informal pose, but the figure's nobility confers a lofty dignity on him that saves him from looking casual in any way.

Fortuny had acquired international renown in the 1860s thanks to sales that had achieved astonishing prices over the years (the extraordinary sale of his painting entitled The Spanish Wedding in 1870 being a case in point). Fortuny and Vincenzo Gemito forged a particularly intense bond of friendship. Impressed by the young man's skill as a sculptor, Fortuny commissioned him to model a terracotta bust of himself, which Gemito carved between October and November 1874. This initial model, with the sitter's head fully upright, is reflected in a terracotta now in the Museo Fortuny in Venice, and it also seems to have spawned a number of bronzes cast at different times and now in different collections – first and foremost the version in the Museo del Prado, which was probably cast in bronze in Paris in 1875 by "F. BARBEDIENNE Fondeur”, according to the foundry stamp on it, and a version with a double patina now in the collections of the Galleria d'Arte Moderna di Roma Capitale. Following Mariano Fortuny's sudden death, Vincenzo Gemito was commissioned by his family to produce a second model of the bust portraying him, which he did in 1879. The bust was placed atop a column in the cemetery of San Lorenzo al Verano in Rome. Thus the bust on Mariano Fortuny's tomb reflects a second version of the work. The original funerary monument bust no longer exists in situ, having unfortunately been dispersed. A modern cast has been installed in its place. Italian public collections contain various exemplars of this portrait bust, Eugenia Querci having drafted a list of the most important ones in a recent work: the Accademia di Belle Arti in Naples has the plaster version with bronze patina that Gemito sent to the Esposizione Nazionale di Belle Arti in Naples in 1877 and the Museo Fortuny in Venice has one bronze and two plaster versions, while the Galleria d'Arte Moderna in Milan has a wax version. This bust differs both from the Museo Fortuny sculptural type and from that of the funerary monument primarily in the inclination of the head, which in this instance bends downwards and to one side. The most striking similarity between this bust and other versions is with a cast now in Palazzo Zevallos in Naples.

Origin of the project: The organizers of this new fair are none other than those who created the Salon du Dessin, the international scope of which has contributed to making Paris one of the major centres for this domain. Because they believe in the future of Paris and in specialized fairs, they have decided to apply the fundamental principles and demands that governed the organization of the Salon du Dessin to this event: • the stands are drawn by lot; • a comfortable setting, conceived without ostentation and on a human scale; • a vetting committee comprised of well known specialists who are not exhibitors. and reveal the wealth of the three major disciplines, painting, drawing and sculpture which will be freely associated on each of the stands. Diversity and quality are the hallmarks of this new fair, whether in media, periods, subjects on view, but also budgets because museum quality works exhibited by major galleries can be shown alongside “discoveries” by young dealers presented at lower prices.

Erano memorie di un primo amore, di una prima colpa; ma di un amore più gentile e più elevato che egli non avesse sentito, di una colpa più dolce e più generosa che egli non avesse commesso.

Le sculpteur de l'âme napolitaine (dal 15 ottobre 2019 al 26 gennaio 2020). L'enorme successo riscosso a Parigi, ha restituito alla sua legittima fama internazionale il grande artista di fine dell'Ottocento e alla sua incomparabile abilità nel captare le anime, una delle maggiori sfide del ritratto, che va ben al di là della somiglianza. La seconda esposizione a Napoli, nella città natale dell’artista, dal titolo Gemito, dalla scultura al disegno (10 settembre-15 novembre 2020), a cura di Jean-Loup Champion, Maria Tamajo Contarini e Carmine Romano, invece, si concentrerà più sui due grandi amori della sua vita che sono stati anche le sue muse: la francese Mathilde Duffaud e la napoletana Anna Cutolo. Gemito, da Parigi a Napoli “Gemito, poco noto in Francia – afferma il direttore Bellenger - a Napoli assume le dimensioni di un mito, di una grande figura della leggenda, non nera e ossessiva come quella di Caravaggio, ma tenera, a cui i napoletani si sono affezionati.

  • Sezioni Della Mostra
    SEZIONI MOSTRA 1. L’ARTE A ROMA Nel panorama artistico romano tra la seconda metà dell’Ottocento e il primo ventennio del Novecento, il genere più affrontato dalla pittura di cavalletto è quello del paesaggio. Una radicale svolta in tal senso si deve soprattutto alla figura del grande pittore e patriota Nino Costa, punto di riferimento per molti artisti attivi a Roma, presente in questa sezione della mostra con la celebre opera Alla fonte o La ninfa dei boschi . La sua concezione di paesaggio, venata di istanze simboliste, ispirerà profondamente quella di pittori come Erulo Eroli, Scipione Vannutelli e Giulio Aristide Sartorio, del quale si espone una suggestiva Veduta di Ninfa . L’estetica di Sartorio si avvicina a quella di Enrico Coleman: l’intento poetico della sua veduta del lago di Nemi, realizzata nel 1909, è evidente a partire dal titolo, Speculum Dianae , secondo cui il lago è lo specchio di Diana, ovvero la luna, appena spuntata sopra il rosso cupo del tramonto. Allo stesso contesto culturale si lega la realizzazione dell’ Elegia di Onorato Carlandi, visione insolita e misteriosa della natura, e de Le vergini savie e le vergini stolte di Sartorio, uno dei più significativi esempi di pittura simbolista di fine Ottocento. L’opera rivela la vicinanza dell’artista alla pittura inglese dei preraffaelliti, conosciuta attraverso alcune riproduzioni mostrategli dal poeta Gabriele D’Annunzio e grazie all’osservazione diretta delle loro opere presenti alla mostre dell’associazione “In Arte Libertas” tra il 1890 e il 1892.
