Giuseppe Bartolomeo Chiari - Madonna Immaculate
Original
Other WORKS AT AUCTIONDescription:
Giuseppe Bartolomeo Chiari (Rome 1654–1727)
Madonna Immaculate, oil on canvas, 133.5 x 97.5 cm, framed
Provenance:
Mrs Mary Veitch (before 1875);
The Royal Scottish Academy, Edinburgh, 1875– 2011.
We are grateful to Professor Erich Schleier and Professor Giancarlo Sestieri for independently identifying Giuseppe Bartolomeo Chiari as the painter of the present composition on the basis of photographs.
Chiari entered the workshop of Carlo Maratta in Rome in 1666, and was one of the latter’’’’s most important students. He continued his master’’’’s classicism in a softer and more elegant variant until well into the 1720s. His first important commission comprised of several paintings for the Cappella Marcaccioni in Santa Maria del Sufraggio, Rome, which attracted the attention of the papal court and the Roman nobility. Pope Clement XI became his most important patron, who he was also favoured by Count Christian of Schaumburg-Lippe. Chiari painted numerous altarpieces, as well as also pictures of mythological themes. Between 1722 and 1725, the painter held the position of “principe” at the Accademia di San Luca in Rome.

The Miracle of the Blessed Mafalda
indistinctly inscribed '**** ELAE SANG** REGIS ET** CISTERCIEÑ*'(lower edge)
oil on canvas
250 x 174.9cm (98 7/16 x 687/8in).
unframed
Footnote:
The present painting depicts the blessed Mafalda (1184-1257),daughter of Sancho I of Portugal, who was briefly married to HenryI of Castile in 1215, as represented by the coat-of-arms on thebuilding in the background. The marriage was, however, annulled byPope Innocent III in 1216 on the grounds of consanguinity andMafalda returned to her native Portugal. It appears that themarriage was never consummated (her epitaph claims that she died avirgin) and Mafalda joined the Benedictine convent of Arouca whereshe convinced the community to adopt Cistercian rule. In 1616 herbody was discovered to be incorruptable and she was later beatifiedin the eighteenth century. It has been suggested that this painting may have been commissionedby Frate Bernardo Castello-Branco, General of the Cistercian Order,who also led the movement to have Mafalda beatified. A slightlylater version of the present painting, attributed to GiovanniOdazzi (Rome 1663-1731), can be found in the monastery at Arouca(see Joanni V Magnifico. A pintura em Portugal ao temp de D.Joao V 1706-1750 , exhibition catalogue, Lisbon 1994,pp.23-25). We are grateful to Francesco Petrucci for confirming theattribution to Chiari and for his kind assistance with thiscatalogue entry.

catalogue note
the present work betrays the influence of chiari's master, carlo marratti, and in fact the composition appears to have been derived from a work by the older artist (unpublished, in a private collection, spain). the subject matter is somewhat unusual in italian painting, where the figure of joseph is most often depicted in an ancillary role. in the present composition, however, he has replaced the madonna as the focus of the composition.
