EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating portrait captures the essence of Carlo Broschi, famously known as Il Farinelli, a renowned Italian opera singer and castrato. Painted by Corrado Giaquinto in 1746, this oil on canvas masterpiece is now housed in the Civico Museo Bibliografico Musicale in Bologna, Italy. In the foreground stands Farinelli himself, portrayed in full length with an air of confidence and elegance. Dressed in a luxurious gold brocade cape and cloak, he exudes both power and grace. His mesmerizing gaze draws us into his world of music and performance. Behind him looms Ferdinand VI, King of Spain from 1713 to 1759, along with Maria Barbara of Braganza, Queen consort until her death in 1758. This regal couple serves as a reminder of Farinelli's close association with Spanish royalty during his illustrious career. The composition is further enhanced by the presence of cherubic putti surrounding Farinelli. These playful figures symbolize his divine talent and celestial voice that captivated audiences across Europe. This print offers a glimpse into the golden age of Italian opera and celebrates one of its most legendary figures. It transports us back to an era where music reigned supreme and artists like Il Farinelli were revered for their extraordinary vocal abilities.
