Italian master of the 19th century, Triumph of cherubs, oil on plywood, dimensions 51 x 39 cm, signed L. IX on the lower right, attributable to Luigi Nono (Fusina, 1850, Venice, 1918) . Framed in a contemporary arched frame with mounting in the style of a small altarpiece. Proposed without reserve price! The subject of the painting, triumph of cherubs, is derived substantially without variations from a well-known composition by Corrado Giaquinto (Molfetta, 1703 - Naples, 1765) , originally created by Giaquinto for the decoration of the vault of the Church of S. Giovanni Calibita, Rome, in 1740-41, and then replicated by Giaquinto himself in an oil on canvas (cf. "Secret Vanvitelli, his painters from Conca to Giaquinto - the Cathedra Petri", catalog of the exhibition 4 March - 31 October 2014, Historic Apartments of the Royal Palace of Caserta) . Copying of ancient paintings was an extremely widespread practice among nineteenth-century academic painters, especially in the early and early years. The work in question may perhaps refer to the period of the 1870s, when Luigi Nono also made a study trip to southern Italy, and perhaps there he had the opportunity to see Giaquinto's work. The work has undergone a widespread restoration following some deterioration due to humidity. The ultraviolet fluorescence shows large repainted portions in correspondence with which, even with the naked eye, drops of color can be seen in the original pictorial surface below.
