Acquaforte, firmata e datata in lastra in alto a sinistra all’interno del soggetto. Oltre l’immagine in alto a destra numero 470, in basso “A. Piccinni pinx. et sc,” titolo e “V.ve A. Cadart Edit. Imp. 56 B.ard Haussmann. Paris”. Questa lastra fu pubblicata su L’Illustration Nouvelle, album edito dalla Maison Cadart nel marzo del 1879. Impressione eccellente con leggero effetto di tono, carta vergata. Ottimo stato di conservazione. Ampi margini oltre la battuta del rame. Il soggetto è riconducibile ad un gruppo di lavori appartenenti alle prime acqueforti di invenzione realizzate dall’artista, tutte hanno per soggetti personaggi e situazioni colti durante il soggiorno romano. In questa stampa vediamo rappresentati dodici spettatori a teatro che si sporgono dalla balconata per osservare meglio la rappresentazione. Grazie a potenti giochi chiaroscurali emergono dallo sfondo scuro e i loro volti indagati minuziosamente sono illuminati dalle luci teatrali della ribalta. Le luci imbiancano anche i due pilastri con capitelli che spezzano l’andamento lineare e prospettico volto a sinistra della superficie della balconata. Proprio l’effetto di luce e il punto di osservazione da sotto in su trasforma i volti in una serie di maschere il che suggerisce un’analisi psicologica dei “tipi da teatro”. Il Piccinni tra gli artisti europei fautori della rinascita dell’acquaforte originale. Sperimentatore delle nuove possibilità legate al mezzo fotografico è tra i primi in Italia a impiegare la fotoincisione tra il 1874 ed il 1886. I temi affrontati da Piccinni dimostrano l’attenzione costante verso i gesti più semplici della quotidianità della vita, gli individui vengono rappresentati come modelli di categorie sociali. Etching, signed and dated in plate at upper left in the image. Beyond image in upper right corner number 470, below lettered "A. Piccinni pinx. et sc," the title and "V.ve A. Cadart Edit. Imp. 56 B.ard Haussmann. Paris." This plate was published in L'Illustration Nouvelle, an album edited by Maison Cadart in March 1879. Excellent impression with slight toning effect, printed on laid paper. Very good condition. Wide margins beyond the platemark. The subject can be traced back to a group of works belonging to the first etchings of invention made by the artist, all have for subjects characters and situations captured during his stay in Rome. In this print we see twelve spectators at the theater who lean out from the balcony to better observe the representation. Thanks to powerful chiaroscuro effects they emerge from the dark background and their meticulously studied faces are illuminated by the theatrical lights of the limelight. The lights also whitewash the two pillars with capitals that break the linear and perspective trend facing left of the surface of the balcony. Just the effect of light and the point of observation from below up turns the faces into a series of masks suggesting a psychological analysis of the "theater types". Piccinni was one of the European artists who were responsible for the rebirth of the original etching. Experimenter of the new possibilities related to the photographic medium, he is among the first in Italy to use the photoengraving between 1874 and 1886. The themes addressed by Piccinni show the constant attention to the simplest gestures of everyday life, individuals are represented as models of social categories. A. Petrucci, “A.

Acquaforte, 1844 circa, firmata in lastra in basso. Figlio del pittore paesaggista Jacob George Strutt (1790-1864), del quale fu allievo, girovagò attraverso la Francia e la Svizzera in compagnia del padre, prima di giungere entrambi in Italia nel 1831, per stabilirsi a Roma. Rimase per il resto della sua vita in Italia, interessandosi soprattutto agli aspetti "pittoreschi", in particolare a quelli della Campagna romana, rivolgendo la sua attenzione, in modo specifico, ai paesaggi e ai costumi degli abitanti. Nel 1841 intraprese un viaggio a piedi verso il sud dell'Italia (allora Regno delle Due Sicilie, in compagnia dell'amico William Jackson, partendo da Porta San Giovanni (Roma) il 30 aprile e giungendo a Palermo il 15 dicembre, dopo aver attraversato la Campania e la Calabria. Le sue osservazioni furono raccolte in un libro, A pedestrian tour in Calabria & Sicily (Un viaggio a piedi in Calabria e in Sicilia) che ebbe un notevole successo, soprattutto nei paesi anglosassoni, ed è considerato ancor oggi un documento molto importante per comprendere la società del Regno delle Due Sicilie nel periodo pre-unitario. Magnifica prova, impressa su carta coeva, ampi margini, in perfetto stato di conservazione. Etching, 1844 circa, signed at the bottom. Arthur John Strutt (1819, in Chelmsford – 1888, in Rome), was an English painter, engraver, writer, traveller and archaeologist. He was the son of the landscape painter Jacob George Strutt (1790–1864) and the writer and traveller Elizabeth Strutt. In 1841 he travelled on foot through central and southern Italy and in Sicily. He and his friend, the poet William Jackson, otherwise unknown, started from the Porta San Giovanni of Rome on 30 April 1841, reaching Palermo on 15 December, and arriving back at Rome in July of the following year. An account of this journey is given in his A Pedestrian Tour in Calabria & Sicily published in London, in 1842. A fine impression, on contemporary paper, large margins, very good condition.
