Acquaforte. Lastra mm 118x152, foglio 160x222 mm. Firma a matita a sinistra Luigi Bart. Titolo a matita in basso a sinistra non ben leggibile. Possiamo ipotizzare Invadenza. L’incisione non è catalogata in nessuno dei numerosi repertori sull’artista da noi consultati; è notorio che la catalogazione delle opere di Bartolini non è ancora completa. Bellissima prova, impressa su carta coeva, piccolo strappo perfettamente restaurato nella parte superiore, leggera abrasione al verso, per il resto in ottimo stato di conservazione. Luigi Bartolini è considerato uno dei maggiori incisori italiani del Novecento, insieme a Giorgio Morandi e Giuseppe Viviani. Oltre ad essere un prolifico incisore (al suo attivo oltre mille acqueforti), fu anche pittore e scrittore. Partecipò sia come pittore che come incisore a diverse edizioni della Biennale di Venezia dal 1928 al 1962. Presente a varie manifestazioni artistiche, sviluppò diverse maniere definite: ‘maniera bionda’, ‘lineare’ e ‘nera’. Ricordiamo soprattutto le acqueforti della serie Marche e della serie Sicilia. Iniziò la sua produzione grafica nel 1914 e il suo stile si rifà alla tradizione naturalistica dell’Ottocento. Molte sue incisioni si possono ricollegare ad alcune opere del Goya, di Telemaco Signorini e di Giovanni Fattori. Eccellente nella rappresentazione della natura morta e del paesaggio, spesso il Bartolini rappresentò dolcemente le cose e gli oggetti più umili, i soggetti di natura più dimessi. In essi ritroviamo il sentimento che diviene immagine e la forma che si sviluppa in espressione. Con Bartolini l’incisione torna ad essere un mezzo di espressione poetica libera dal simbolismo e dal vedutismo allora in voga presso le accademie. Nelle sue acqueforti prevale ora un tratteggio leggero (genere biondo), ora una ricerca del chiaroscuro alla Rembrandt (genere nero). Etching. Plate mm 118x152, sheet 160x222 mm. Signature in pencil on the left Luigi Bart. Title in pencil at lower left not well readable. We can assume Invadenza. This work is not catalogued in any of the several repertories we consulted about the artist; it is well known that the cataloguing of Bartolini's works is not yet complete. Beautiful proof, printed on contemporary paper, small tear perfectly restored in the upper part, light abrasion on the back, otherwise in excellent condition. Born in Cupramontana near Ancona, Luigi Bartolini was the twentieth century Italian etcher, who came closest to the stature of his great rival, Morandi. As a teenager, he saw the collection of etchings, including work by Callot, owned by the Corradi family in Iesi. From 1907 to 1910 Bartolini studied at the Istituto di Belle Arti in Siena, and started to etch c. 1909. He moved to Rome in 1910, where until 1912 he frequented the Accademia di Belle Arti, while also attending lectures on literature and the history of art, and courses on anatomy at the University in Rome. Bartolini studied the etchings of Goya and took lessons on drawing at the Accademia di Spagna. From there, he went to Florence in 1913, where he attended the Scuola del nudo. Bartolini continued his anatomical research, as well as studying architecture, making himself the most assiduous student of all Italian twentieth century printmakers. He also visited the Uffizi and Florentine print dealers to look at the etchings of Rembrandt and Fattori. Bartolini painted his first oils just before the outbreak of the First World War. Although he painted pictures throughout the rest of his career, and was awarded the Premio Marzotto for them in 1956, they have been far eclipsed in fame by his etchings and writings. During the First World War, Bartolini published his first collection of poetry. A very prolific and accomplished writer, in this field he is best known today as the author of the novel, 'Ladri di biciclette' (Bicycle thieves), of 1946, which was quickly turned into a celebrated film by Vittorio de Sica and Cesar Zavattini. After the First World War, Bartolini held a series of minor teaching posts in Macerata, Sassari, Avezzano, Pola, and Caltagirone, while he continued to etch, and started a long career as a polemical journalist and critic of art and architecture. From 1923 to 1929, he wrote for the Naples periodical, 'Cimento', but he also contributed to 'Il Selvaggio', 'Quadrivio', 'Italia letteraria', and 'L'Ambrosiana'. Bartolini's 1924 exhibition of etchings at the Casa d'Arte Bragaglia in Rome was a great success, and later that year he showed 70 etched landscapes of the Marches at the Casa Palazzo di Roma. The following year he visited Paris, where he paid particular attention to the paintings of Van Gogh. Bartolini's political convictions led him to being assaulted by Fascists and hospitalised in 1928. Two years later, he won a prize at the Venice Biennale, where he had exhibited a portfolio of etchings. In 1930, the Turin publisher, Buratti, began to issue a series of portfolios of etchings by contemporary Italian artists under the editorship of Cipriano Oppi, selecting Bartolini for the first album. The following year, Buratti published 'Le carte parlanti', a portfolio of 10 of Bartolini's etchings, which was published in an edition of 20. In 1932, Bartolini shared the first prize at the Prima mostra dell'incisione moderna at the Uffizi with Morandi and Boccioni. His close friend, the leading anti-Fascist art historian, Lionello Venturi, acted as his agent selling his etchings in Paris. Bartolini's correspondence with his compatriots in exile led to his imprisonment, from which he was released on Mussolini's personal intervention. He was then placed under political surveillance. From 1933 to 1938, Bartolini taught in Merano, where he painted and etched in the open air, finding subjects on the banks of the fast flowing Adige. Despite being under political su...
Acquaforte. Lastra mm 160x245, foglio 350x500 mm. Firma e data in lastra in basso e in alto a sinistra Bartolini 1957. Tiratura a matita in basso al centro 9/50. Firma a matita in basso a destra Luigi Bartolini Altri titoli: Vaso di fiori, Fiori, I fiorellini. Le genziane, insieme alle fonti marchigiane, sono uno dei soggetti più amati da Bartolini. Dagli anni del confino politico meranese fino alla fine degli Anni Cinquanta, l’artista ne ha inciso almeno una ventina di versioni, dieci delle quali solo nel 1934. Il presente soggetto riprende, con alcune modifiche e un tratto diverso, una lastra del 1934 dal titolo Genziane.

Other titles: Vaso di Fiori (Vase of Flowers), Fiori (Flowers), I Fiorellini (The Little Flowers). The gentians, together with the Marche sources, are one of the subjects most loved by Bartolini. From the years of political exile in Merano until the end of the 1950s, the artist engraved at least twenty versions, ten of which in 1934. The present subject is taken, with somechanges, from a 1934 plate entitled Genziane.

Eccellente nella rappresentazione della natura morta e del paesaggio, spesso il Bartolini rappresentò dolcemente le cose e gli oggetti più umili, i soggetti di natura più dimessi. In essi ritroviamo il sentimento che diviene immagine e la forma che si sviluppa in espressione. Con Bartolini l’incisione torna ad essere un mezzo di espressione poetica libera dal simbolismo e dal vedutismo allora in voga presso le accademie. Nelle sue acqueforti prevale ora un tratteggio leggero (genere biondo), ora una ricerca del chiaroscuro alla Rembrandt (genere nero). Magnifica prova, con margini, in ottime condizioni. Il presente esemplare proviene dalla mostra di Bartolini presso la Galleria d’Arte Moderna Viotti di Torino, tenutasi il 22 febbraio 1969. Viene allegata la targhetta della galleria. Etching, 1932, unique example finished in watercolor. 130x220 mm plate. Signed and dated on plate 1932. Autograph title in pencil at lower left where inscribed "unique in color". Signature in pencil at lower right "Luigi Bartolini". A unique example of the print is described in several repertories and is reproduced in (Casini editore, Roma 1952). The present example would therefore be the only one finished in color by Bartolini. Magnificent proof, with margins, in excellent condition. The present example comes from Bartolini's exhibition at the Galleria d'Arte Moderna Viotti in Turin, on February 22, 1969. The gallery plaque is enclosed. Born in Cupramontana near Ancona, Luigi Bartolini was the twentieth century Italian etcher, who came closest to the stature of his great rival, Morandi. As a teenager, he saw the collection of etchings, including work by Callot, owned by the Corradi family in Iesi. From 1907 to 1910 Bartolini studied at the Istituto di Belle Arti in Siena, and started to etch c. 1909. He moved to Rome in 1910, where until 1912 he frequented the Accademia di Belle Arti, while also attending lectures on literature and the history of art, and courses on anatomy at the University in Rome. Bartolini studied the etchings of Goya and took lessons on drawing at the Accademia di Spagna. From there, he went to Florence in 1913, where he attended the Scuola del nudo. Bartolini continued his anatomical research, as well as studying architecture, making himself the most assiduous student of all Italian twentieth century printmakers. He also visited the Uffizi and Florentine print dealers to look at the etchings of Rembrandt and Fattori. Bartolini painted his first oils just before the outbreak of the First World War. Although he painted pictures throughout the rest of his career, and was awarded the Premio Marzotto for them in 1956, they have been far eclipsed in fame by his etchings and writings. During the First World War, Bartolini published his first collection of poetry. A very prolific and accomplished writer, in this field he is best known today as the author of the novel, 'Ladri di biciclette' (Bicycle thieves), of 1946, which was quickly turned into a celebrated film by Vittorio de Sica and Cesar Zavattini. After the First World War, Bartolini held a series of minor teaching posts in Macerata, Sassari, Avezzano, Pola, and Caltagirone, while he continued to etch, and started a long career as a polemical journalist and critic of art and architecture. From 1923 to 1929, he wrote for the Naples periodical, 'Cimento', but he also contributed to 'Il Selvaggio', 'Quadrivio', 'Italia letteraria', and 'L'Ambrosiana'. Bartolini's 1924 exhibition of etchings at the Casa d'Arte Bragaglia in Rome was a great success, and later that year he showed 70 etched landscapes of the Marches at the Casa Palazzo di Roma. The following year he visited Paris, where he paid particular attention to the paintings of Van Gogh. Bartolini's political convictions led him to being assaulted by Fascists and hospitalised in 1928. Two years later, he won a prize at the Venice Biennale, where he had exhibited a portfolio of etchings. In 1930, the Turin publisher, Buratti, began to issue a series of portfolios of etchings by contemporary Italian artists under the editorship of Cipriano Oppi, selecting Bartolini for the first album. The following year, Buratti published 'Le carte parlanti', a portfolio of 10 of Bartolini's etchings, which was published in an edition of 20. In 1932, Bartolini shared the first prize at the Prima mostra dell'incisione moderna at the Uffizi with Morandi and Boccioni. His close friend, the leading anti-Fascist art historian, Lionello Venturi, acted as his agent selling his etchings in Paris. Bartolini's correspondence with his compatriots in exile led to his imprisonment, from which he was released on Mussolini's personal intervention. He was then placed under political surveillance.

Acquaforte, 1930 circa. Lastra mm 125x165, figlio mm 355x505. Firma a matita in basso a destra “L. Bartolini”. Dedica incisa in lastra, in basso “V. Cardarelli”. Dalla biografia di Luigi Bartolini si evince che nel gennaio 1928 ha inizio la corrispondenza epistolare con Vincenzo Cardarelli, che durerà fino al febbraio 1930. Pertanto, la datazione della lastra viene ricondotta a tale periodo. Luigi Bartolini è considerato uno dei maggiori incisori italiani del Novecento, insieme a Giorgio Morandi e Giuseppe Viviani. Oltre ad essere un prolifico incisore (al suo attivo oltre mille acqueforti), fu anche pittore e scrittore. Partecipò sia come pittore che come incisore a diverse edizioni della Biennale di Venezia dal 1928 al 1962. Presente a varie manifestazioni artistiche, sviluppò diverse maniere definite: ‘maniera bionda’, ‘lineare’ e ‘nera’. Ricordiamo soprattutto le acqueforti della serie Marche e della serie Sicilia. Iniziò la sua produzione grafica nel 1914 e il suo stile si rifà alla tradizione naturalistica dell’Ottocento. Molte sue incisioni si possono ricollegare ad alcune opere del Goya, di Telemaco Signorini e di Giovanni Fattori. Eccellente nella rappresentazione della natura morta e del paesaggio, spesso il Bartolini rappresentò dolcemente le cose e gli oggetti più umili, i soggetti di natura più dimessi. In essi ritroviamo il sentimento che diviene immagine e la forma che si sviluppa in espressione.

Nelle sue acqueforti prevale ora un tratteggio leggero (genere biondo), ora una ricerca del chiaroscuro alla Rembrandt (genere nero). Opera rarissima, non descritta dai repertori. Etching, circa 1930. Plate mm 125x165, son mm 355x505. Pencil signature at lower right "L. Bartolini". Dedication engraved on plate, at bottom "V. Cardarelli". From Luigi Bartolini's biography it is clear that in January 1928 he began his correspondence with Vincenzo Cardarelli, which lasted until February 1930. Therefore, the dating of the plate can be traced back to that period.

From 1933 to 1938, Bartolini taught in Merano, where he painted and etched in the open air, finding subjects on the banks of the fast flowing Adige. Despite being under political suspicion, he was given a one - man show of 50 etchings at the second Rome Quadriennale in 1935, when he was awarded ...
