Barberini<\/a> <\/strong>enriches its collection with <strong>two new wonderful works<\/strong>:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/artsupp.com\/it\/artisti\/giovanni-lanfranco\/il-suicidio-di-cleopatra\">The Death of Cleopatra<\/a> <\/strong>by<strong> Giovanni Lanfranco <\/strong>and<strong> the <a

Cantarini.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-death-of-cleopatra\"><strong>The Death of Cleopatra<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It was commissioned to <strong>Giovanni Lanfranco<\/strong> by <strong>Marco Mazzoli<\/strong>, a musician and composer in the service of <strong>Cardinal Antonio Barberini.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mazzoli<\/strong>, while working for <strong>the Barberini<\/strong>, became the music teacher of <strong>Lanfranco&#8217;s<\/strong> daughter, a painter of Parmese origin.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In exchange for his lessons, he commissioned the artist three works: <strong>Venus Playing the Harp<\/strong> &#8211; which belonged to the same <strong>Barberini family<\/strong>, <strong>Arrival of Erminia among the Shepherds<\/strong> &#8211; now at the Capitoline Museums in Rome &#8211; and <strong>The Death of Cleopatra<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The latter, a work with a rather troubled history, was presumably created in 1630 and today returns to <strong>Palazzo Barberini<\/strong>, reuniting with <strong>Venus<\/strong>, already displayed in the museum&#8217;s halls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mazzoli,<\/strong> as we learn from his will dated <strong>January 7, 1662<\/strong>, left the work as an inheritance to the <strong>Barberini family<\/strong> in gratitude for the kindness and hospitality they showed him during his lifetime.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Subsequently, it first came into the possession of the <strong>Colonna Sciarra family<\/strong>, moving to their palace, before passing through various private collections.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, with the purchase by the <strong>State<\/strong> from <strong>Brun Fine Art<\/strong> in <strong>Milano<\/strong>, it finally returns home.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\"

ambiguity of Cleopatra&#8217;s figure, a characteristic very common in other portraits of the <strong>Queen of Egypt<\/strong> painted during the <strong>Seventeenth Century.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the painting, <strong>Cleopatra<\/strong> is suffering but simultaneously maintains a sensual figure, echoing the stereotype of <strong>legendary beauty<\/strong> for which her character was famous even at the time and has since passed into history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the center of the work is only she, represented by <strong>Lanfranco<\/strong> with a sculptural body almost as if it were a bust, set against a virtually absent background, recognizable only by a few hinted elements and by the contrast with the red drapery in which she is wrapped, a prelude to her imminent death: the scene indeed represents the climactic moment of the tragedy, that of Cleopatra&#8217;s suicide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-portrait-of-cardinal-antonio-barberini\"><strong>The Portrait of Cardinal Antonio Barberini<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>second work<\/strong> enriching the halls of <strong>Palazzo Barberini<\/strong> is the portrait of <strong>Cardinal Antonio Barberini<\/strong>, created in 1631 by <strong>Simone Cantarini<\/strong>, a painter from Pesaro belonging to the Bolognese school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The painting is displayed in the hall of <strong>Divine Wisdom<\/strong> next to the portraits by <strong>Gian Lorenzo Bernini<\/strong> of <strong>Urban VII<\/strong> and his nephews <strong>Giuliano Finelli, Carlo Maratti, Lorenzo Ottoni.<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Antonio Barberini<\/strong> (1607-1671), a member of the eponymous family, was the son of <strong>Carlo Barberini<\/strong> and <strong>Costanza Magalotti<\/strong>, as well as the nephew, on his father&#8217;s side, of <strong>Pope Urban VIII<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In life, <strong>Cardinal Barberini<\/strong> was a significant historical figure, a representative of one of the most powerful and influential families both in Rome and within the walls of the Vatican, driven by a strong and resolute personality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\"

class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-work-2\"><strong>The Work <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The portrait, a preparatory study on paper from which the two canvas versions were later made &#8211; one of which is preserved at the <strong>Galleria Corsini &#8211;<\/strong> depicts him in his youth while serving as papal delegate in <strong>Pesaro<\/strong> during the transition of the Duchy of Urbino to the Church.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The work perfectly conveys the spirit of the man with a calm face, aware of his role and influence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cantarini<\/strong>, in what is considered one of his most emblematic works, depicts the face of the Cardinal almost in an impressionistic manner, achieving a result that is, so to speak, \u201calive,\u201d as revealed by the attention to the smallest details, particularly the hint of slight strabismus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"a-culturally-significant-operation\"><strong>A culturally significant operation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The two works, reacquired by the <strong>Italian State<\/strong>, have been returned to the museum as part of what has been defined as<strong> a culturally significant operation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An event like this is proof of how <strong>support<\/strong> for <strong>cultural institutions<\/strong> is generally essential for masterpieces like these to be enjoyed by the public once again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Often, it is the public that can make a difference by actively participating in the <strong>fundraising<\/strong> campaigns promoted by Italian museums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the story of Antonio and Cleopatra teaches us, the goal is to offer <strong>an increasingly shared and rich cultural offering.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2
