Description

MONDO. Holy preaches to the pagans. Drawing.

MONDO, Dominic. Holy preaches to the pagans. Drawing.1717-1808 Sheet of 246x187 mm. Watercolor on ivory paper: brush with black and gray ink and touches of white lead. Good conditions. Beautiful watercolor that combines the sacred and the profane. The setting suggests a study for an altarpiece, with the preacher in the upper part dominated by angels in the midst of the clouds: the foreground is a naked young woman pointing to the saint. Domenico Mondo, an exponent of the Neapolitan Baroque, worked mainly between Naples and Caserta: in 1789, the year in which I was appointed director of the Neapolitan Academy of Drawing, on the offer of Ferdinand IV.
