EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 18th century showcases a stern and commanding portrait of the renowned Italian violinist and composer, Arcangelo Corelli. Measuring at 24.7x14.4 cm, this oval-shaped print is part of the Gerald Coke Handel Collection housed in London's Foundling Museum. Arcangelo Corelli, who lived from 1653 to 1713, was an influential figure in Baroque music. Known for his exceptional talent as a violinist and his significant contributions to composition, Corelli left an indelible mark on the world of classical music. The artist behind this remarkable engraving remains unknown but their attention to detail is evident in every stroke. The trompe l'oeil technique employed here adds depth and dimension to Corelli's likeness, creating a lifelike representation that seems almost sculptural. Rendered in grayscale with hints of marble texture, this artwork captures not only Corelli's physical appearance but also his musical prowess and dedication to his craft. His intense gaze reflects both determination and passion for his artistry. As part of the Gerald Coke Handel Collection at the Foundling Museum, this print serves as a testament to Corelli's enduring legacy within the realm of classical music. It offers viewers a glimpse into the life and persona of one of history's most celebrated musicians while honoring his immense contribution to Baroque compositions.
