Architectural study with portal and mask on the reverse Portrait of a Faun. 1599-1661 Watercolor drawing on heavy paper. Signed on the reverse. Sheet 274x210; Image 200x138 mm. Brown pen and monochrome watercolor in soft hazelnut tones. Boxed image. On the reverse a Faun, outlined with a brush in sepia ink and signed: "d'Andrea Sacchi". Slight sign of marginal use and a small loss within the drawing. An important architectural drawing by the famous Roman painter, who collaborated with Guido Reni and Pietro da Cortona. On the reverse a tasty portrait of an old faun with a sardonic smile. D'Anvossa highlighted Andrea Sacchi's important activity also as an architect, which is now recognized by scholars. Alessandra Cosmi: "Sacchi's activity as an architect has been documented since 1639 (Incisa della Rocchetta, 1924, pp. 66 f.): He was employed by Antonio Barberini to supervise the works in S. Maria sopra Minerva (1638-44) and S. Agata dei Goti (1633-41), as well as for some sets of the comedies staged in the theater of Palazzo Barberini and for ephemeral apparatus (pp. 67-69). In the 1950s, on Antonio's return from France, Sacchi took care of the renovation work at Villa Sciarra, in the palace in Nemi and in the one at Giubbonari."
