Benedetto Luti

Praying Madonna oil on copper 35 x 27 cm Benedetto Luti was a pupil in Florence of Anton Domenico Gabbiani and in 1691, thanks to the patronage of Grand Duke Cosimo III, moved to Rome with the privilege of living and working in Palazzo Medici in Campomarzio. In the Eternal City, the painter modeled his art on the examples of Carlo Maratta, but equally fundamental were the works of Gaulli, decisive for the plastic and chromatic implication useful in dissolving his primitive Florentine language. On these directives of taste, the painter at the beginning of the century freed himself from Marattesque precepts and his means of expression reached a full autonomy, developing a very personal language and interpreter of that Arcadian classicism that unites Baroque culture, Rococo' up to the crystalline language of Pompeo Batoni. Bears inscription on the back "....... Luti." Within gilt frame.
