"Giovanni Giacomo De: A Master of Religious and Mythological Art" Step into the world of Giovanni Giacomo De, a renowned artist whose works captivate with their divine themes and intricate details. In his masterpiece "The Holy Trinity, " we are transported to a celestial realm where the dead Christ is surrounded by ethereal angels, while God the Father watches over them all. Another notable creation by De is "The Genius of Castiglione, " a work that exudes elegance and grace. Created in 1645 but published in 1648, this piece showcases De's mastery in capturing mythical figures as they come to life before our eyes. In "Theseus finding his father's arms, " we witness an epic moment from Greek mythology brought to life through De's skilled hand. The intensity of emotion conveyed in this scene leaves us breathless as Theseus discovers his heritage amidst ruins and shadows. Giorgio Ghisi's "The Vision of Ezekiel" finds its place within the collection curated by De. This engraving transports us into biblical times, allowing us to glimpse into the prophetic visions experienced by Ezekiel himself. As we explore further, we encounter a view of Palazzo Pamphili's side facade and its enchanting garden captured in Secondo prospetto pe. Through this artwork, De invites us to marvel at architectural beauty harmoniously blending with nature. Pietro Testa contributes two captivating pieces - "The Sacrifice of Iphigenia" and "The Holy Family fed by Angels. " Each painting tells its own story; one filled with tragedy and sacrifice while the other radiates warmth and divine intervention. De also presents an exquisite scrapbook containing Italian etchings from the XVIth and XVIIth centuries. Within these pages lie glimpses into Italy's rich artistic history that continue to inspire generations even today.
