EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite painting, "Portrait of Ferdinand I of Bourbon or Ferdinand IV, King of Naples, at the age of nine" created by Anton Raphael Mengs in 1760. The young king is depicted with utmost grace and poise, exuding an air of regality beyond his tender age. Ferdinand I of Bourbon, also known as Ferdinand IV (1751-1825), ruled over Naples during a tumultuous period in European history. This portrait captures him at a pivotal moment in his life, when he was just beginning to understand the weighty responsibilities that awaited him. Mengs' masterful brushwork brings out every intricate detail on Ferdinand's face - from his piercing eyes to his rosy cheeks - showcasing the artist's keen attention to realism. The vibrant colors and delicate shading lend an ethereal quality to this timeless piece. Displayed proudly at the Museo di Capodimonte in Naples, Italy, this painting serves as a testament to both Mengs' artistic prowess and Ferdinand's royal lineage. It stands as a symbol not only of beauty but also of power and heritage. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork through Luisa Ricciarini's lens, we are transported back to the 18th century Italian court where kings were crowned and childhood innocence mingled with grandeur. Let us marvel at this extraordinary portrayal that immortalizes a young monarch destined for greatness.
