Francesco Zuccarelli studiò a Firenze nella bottega di Paolo Anesi ed in seguito si trasferì a Roma presso i pittori Giovanni Maria Morandi e Pietro Nelli. Fu inizialmente un pittore di soggetti storici ispirato dalla conoscenza della pittura di Claude Lorrain, pittore francese del Seicento vissuto a Roma che fu maestro di questo genere insieme al connazionale, ma più scenografico, Nicolas Poussin. Trasferitosi a Venezia, Zuccarelli, si rivolse alla pittura di soggetto arcadico, che coltivò in concorrenza col bellunese Giuseppe Zais. Come successe ad altri pittori veneti suoi contemporanei, quali Canaletto e Bernardo Bellotto, la sua pittura fu molto apprezzata all'estero dove fu chiamato a dipingere per ricchi mecenati come ad esempio il celebre Console Joseph Smith. Zuccarelli lavorò molto in Inghilterra dove influenzò importanti pittori locali in maniera particolare il suo stile fu ripreso dal grande Joshua Reynolds. Dopo cinque anni di permanenza a Londra, Zuccarelli ritornò a Venezia. Di nuovo a Londra nel 1765, fu uno dei fondatori della Royal Academy of Arts nel 1768. Etching, signed and dated lower margin: Fran Zuccherelli Pitilianen incid. Flo. 1728. After a drawing by Giovanni Manozzi. The print shows a standing female figure walking to the left holding a lamp, pointing with right hand. Good example, printed on contemporary laid paper, trimmed close to the marginal line, in perfect condition. Cut off the inscription in the lower margin. Francesco Zuccarelli studied in Florence in Paolo Anesi's workshop and later moved to Rome with the painters Giovanni Maria Morandi and Pietro Nelli. He was initially a painter of historical subjects inspired by his knowledge of the painting of Claude Lorrain, a 17th-century French painter who lived in Rome and who was a master of this genre together with his compatriot, but more scenic, Nicolas Poussin. After moving to Venice, Zuccarelli turned to painting Arcadian subjects, which he cultivated in competition with Giuseppe Zais from Belluno. As with other Venetian painters of his time, such as Canaletto and Bernardo Bellotto, his painting was much appreciated abroad where he was called to paint for wealthy patrons such as the famous Consul Joseph Smith. Zuccarelli worked extensively in England where he influenced important local painters, and in particular his style was taken up by the great Joshua Reynolds. After five years in London, Zuccarelli returned to Venice. Back in London in 1765, he was one of the founders of the Royal Academy of Arts in 1768.

Acquaforte, 1978, firmata e datata in lastra in basso al centro. Firma a matita Beppi Zancan in basso a destra. Esemplare stampato su carta cina, in perfetto stato di conservazione. Beppi Zancan nacque a Torino il 14 febbraio del 1936 da una famiglia di origine veneta di giuristi, medici e docenti universitari. Durante la guerra, riparó con la famiglia nella villa di Viverone, dove trascorse alcuni degli anni piú belli della fanciullezza insieme al fratello Giampaolo, divenuto poi uno tra i più noti avvocati penalisti italiani. Rientrato a Torino, frequentó il liceo classico presso l’Istituto Sociale dei padri Gesuiti, dove si distinse come studente brillante e geniale. Si laureó in giurisprudenza con Norberto Bobbio, del quale fu assistente, elaborando una tesi di filosofia del diritto sul concetto di giustizia in Dostoevskij, che fu molto apprezzata e che ottenne numerosi riconoscimenti. L’amore per Dostoevskij, che Beppi leggeva anche in lingua originale, rimase una costante della sua intera esistenza. Assolto il servizio militare a Casale, tornó a Torino dove, abbandonó la carriera universitaria, per una sua incompatibilitá con le formalitá piú rigide e canoniche, da artista intenso ed eccentrico qual era. Trasferitosi a Milano, incontró Arrigo Polillo, direttore della rivista Musica Jazz e direttore del personale di Arnoldo Mondadori, che, apprezzatene le doti di musicista e riconosciutone l’estro creativo, lo volle con sé come pubblicitario e creativo. É di questo periodo, nel 1967, la sua prima mostra personale di incisioni, ordinata presso la galleria L’Arte Antica di Torino. Si trattava di incisioni di grandissimo talento tecnico, strettamente correlate al lavoro del Maestro ideale di Beppi Zancan, Rembradt. Nel 1971 espose di nuovo all’Arte Antica di Torino e al Gabinetto delle Stampe di Milano e nel 1974 al Casinò di Sanremo. Nel 1974, divenne giornalista professionista e, nel 1975, gli fu affidata la direzione de Il Mago, una delle più importanti riviste di fumetti italiane, sulle cui pagine trovavano spazio tavole di giovani autori italiani esordienti così come strisce straniere, prevalentemente umoristiche. In quello stesso anno conobbe Carlotta Frattini, che divenne sua moglie l’anno successivo. Ancora nel 1976, ordinò una nuova mostra di incisioni, nuovamente presso la galleria L’Arte Antica, mentre la prima esposizione torinese di opere pittoriche avvenne soltanto nel 1981, presso la galleria Quaglino di piazza San Carlo; qui espose le sue tele, in cui l’impronta dei grandi impressionisti, tra i quali soprattutto Van Gogh e Cezanne emergeva forte ed evidente. La pennellata di Beppi Zancan rimane tuttavia personale e autonoma, pur riflettendo ardentemente l’ammirazione per quei grandi. Etching, 1978, signed and dated in plate at lower center. Signature in pencil Beppi Zancan at lower right. Example printed on china paper, in perfect condition. Beppi Zancan was born in Turin on February 14, 1936 into a family of Venetian origin of jurists, doctors and university professors. During the war, he took refuge with his family in the villa in Viverone, where he spent some of the best years of his childhood together with his brother Giampaolo, who later became one of the most famous Italian criminal lawyers. Back in Turin, he attended the classical high school at the Social Institute of the Jesuit Fathers, where he distinguished himself as a brilliant and brilliant student. He graduated in law with Norberto Bobbio, of whom he was an assistant, elaborating a thesis on the philosophy of law on the concept of justice in Dostoevsky, which was much appreciated and received numerous awards. The love for Dostoevsky, which Beppi also read in the original language, remained a constant throughout his life. After completing his military service in Casale, he returned to Turin where he abandoned his university career, due to his incompatibility with the most rigid and canonical formalities, as an intense and eccentric artist that he was. After moving to Milan, he met Arrigo Polillo, director of the magazine Musica Jazz and personnel director of Arnoldo Mondadori, who, appreciating his talents as a musician and recognizing his creative flair, wanted him with him as a publicist and creative. It is of this period, in 1967, his first personal exhibition of engravings, ordered at the gallery L'Arte Antica in Turin. These were engravings of great technical talent, closely related to the work of Beppi Zancan's ideal master, Rembrandt. In 1971 he exhibited again at the Arte Antica of Turin and at the Gabinetto delle Stampe of Milan and in 1974 at the Casino of Sanremo. In 1974, he became a professional journalist and, in 1975, he was entrusted with the direction of Il Mago, one of the most important Italian comics magazines, on the pages of which there were tables of young Italian authors as well as foreign strips, mainly humorous. In that same year he met Carlotta Frattini, who became his wife the following year. Still in 1976, he ordered a new exhibition of engravings, once again at the gallery L'Arte Antica, while the first Turinese exhibition of paintings took place only in 1981, at the Quaglino gallery in Piazza San Carlo; here he exhibited his canvases, in which the imprint of the great impressionists, among whom above all Van Gogh and Cezanne emerged strong and evident. Beppi Zancan's brushstroke, however, remains personal and autonomous, even though it ardently reflects his admiration for those great artists.
