The Guest at the Palace<\/em> initiative, promoted by the Art History Institute of the Fondazione Giorgio Cini, was created through collaborations with some of the most prestigious Italian and international museum institutions. Conceived to temporarily enrich the museum holdings of Galleria di Palazzo Cini, the project features the exhibition of particularly important artworks granted on extraordinary loan and hosted for several months in the historic residence of Vittorio Cini, which houses the masterpieces of his remarkable art collection.<\/p>\n

From 19 September to 15 November 2015, the Palazzo Cini Gallery is hosting Capriccio with a Small Square<\/em> by Francesco Guardi<\/strong> (Venice, 5 October 1712 \u2013 Venice, 1 January 1793), on loan from the Jacquemart-Andr\u00e9 in Paris. The loan coincides with the temporary transfer of Pontormo\u2019s Double Portrait of Friends from the Palazzo Cini Gallery for the exhibition on Florentine portraiture in the sixteenth century at the Mus\u00e9e Jacquemart-Andr\u00e9 in Paris, which runs from 11 September 2015 to 25 January 2016.<\/p>\n

Francesco Guardi\u2019s Capriccio con campiello<\/em>\u00a0is a vivid, immersive glimpse into the urban landscape of a melancholic Venice, reimagined through a sensibility that many have described as \u2018pre-Romantic\u2019: the glimpse of this small square, surrounded by buildings worn and marked by time, with a monastery in the background topped by a typical Venetian dome, is framed by a portico teeming with vegetation, whose scale enhances the visual effect of the dizzying diagonal perspective.<\/p>\n

–<\/p>\n

Darting, textured brushstrokes succinctly create the figures that animate the space, whilst swirls and touches of white, green and brown create a fluid chiaroscuro weave typical of the artist\u2019s fragmented and tremulous style.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
