EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases the Marquis Achille Fontanelli, a prominent figure in Italian history. Painted by Andrea Appiani the Elder in 1811-3, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 98x126 cm and is currently housed in the Galleria d'Arte Moderna at Villa Reale in Milan, Italy. The Marquis Achille Fontanelli (1775-1838) was not only an esteemed Italian general but also a skilled politician who served with distinction in the Napoleonic army. This state portrait captures his commanding presence and noble stature, as he stands confidently donning his military uniform and cloak. Appiani's meticulous attention to detail brings out every nuance of Fontanelli's character, from the vibrant colors of his attire to the dignified expression on his face. The artist skillfully portrays both power and elegance through subtle brushstrokes that highlight every fold of fabric and contour of Fontanelli's features. Displayed within an ornate frame, this painting exudes grandeur while offering us a glimpse into Italy's rich history during the 19th century. It serves as a testament to Fontanelli's significant contributions to society as well as Appiani's mastery of portraiture. Luisa Ricciarini has expertly captured this remarkable artwork through her lens, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even from afar. As we admire this print, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the charisma and influence possessed by one of Italy's most distinguished figures.
