EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Portrait of Bianca degli Utili Maselli with her six children" is a stunning representation of 17th-century nobility and family life. Painted by the talented Italian artist Lavinia Fontana in approximately 1605, this oil on canvas print measures an impressive 99 x 133.5 cm. The central figure in the painting is Bianca degli Utili Maselli, wife of nobleman Pierino Maselli. Surrounding her are her six children - five sons and one daughter named Verginia, whose name is inscribed above her head. This portrait serves as a poignant reminder of the immense tragedy that befell this family when Bianca tragically passed away at just 37 years old while giving birth to her nineteenth child. The composition exudes elegance and sophistication, showcasing intricate details such as elaborate hairstyles adorned with jewels and pearls, fashionable clothing with ruffled collars known as ruffs, and exquisite accessories like rings and earrings. The presence of a dog adds warmth to the scene while symbolizing loyalty within the family. With its rich colors and meticulous brushwork, this masterpiece exemplifies Fontana's mastery in capturing not only physical likeness but also emotional depth. It provides us with a glimpse into the lives of aristocratic families during the Renaissance period in Italy. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate Fontana's artistry up close while immersing ourselves in the beauty and complexity of this historical moment captured on canvas.
