Lorenzo Pasinelli (cerchia di) (Bologna 1629-Bologna
Oil painting on canvas 42x48 cm, framed 60x66 cm In the 2nd half of the 17th century Lorenzo Pasinelli was one of the most important painters of the Emilia-Romagna school. He was a pupil of Simone Cantarini and Flaminio Torri, both trained under the influence of Guido Reni, for this reason he was able to observe and metabolize the stylistic canons of Reni's classicism and the characteristics of technique, design and color. The work is presented as a preparatory sketch, crowded with figures, complex as a composition. Remarkable is the palette that makes the work rich and brilliant for a well-balanced variety of colors in the chiaroscuro adaptation of the shadows and darks. The characters are numerous, as often happens in his compositions, and have solid and well-rounded shapes, the coloristic exaltation of the fabrics is moderated by the dark tones that dominate the background. Ultimately an essential and moderate Baroque taste. ASORstudio
