Description
Francesco Lavagna (attributed to) - Floral composition with vase of flowers in a landscape Oil on canvas 73 x 47 cm The painting presents a refined floral composition set within an articulated landscape of Arcadian and decorative taste. In the foreground, on an architectural plinth, is a rich metal vase filled with multicoloured flowers, roses, carnations, peonies and small country flowers rendered with a loose and vibrant painting, played on red, white and pink luminous accents emerging from the brown background. An elegant classical urn appears on the right, while cut corollas and fruit are scattered on the floor, in keeping with a typically late Baroque sensibility inclined to a taste for transience and naturalistic ornamentation.The scenographic layout, characterised by the lateral arboreal backdrop and the open landscape in the background, recalls the Neapolitan tradition of decorative 'still life' paintings developed between the end of the 17th century and the first decades of the 18th century. In particular, the canvas shows clear affinities with the production of Francesco Lavagna, a specialist in floral compositions set in architectural or landscape contexts, indebted as much to the lesson of Andrea Belvedere as to the Roman and Neapolitan ornamental culture of the high Baroque period. Within frame.
