ZUCCARI, Federico. La Visitazione. Maria incontra Elisabetta. 1539 - 1609 Acquarello incollato su cartoncino in forma ottagonale. 250x242 mm. Acquarello monocromo in diverse tonalità nocciola. Ottimo stato di conservazione. Magistrale illustrazione dell’importante episodio narrato nel Vangelo di Luca. In un interno domestico le due donne, la giovane Maria e la più anziana Elisabetta, sono al centro della scena. Alle loro spalle si intravvedono due donne, probabilmente Maria di Cleofa e Maria di Salomè. Anche due uomini assistono all’incontro, in secondo piano: San Giuseppe con il bastone a sinistra, e Zaccaria a destra. La rappresentazione appare più austera rispetto al monumentale affresco sullo stesso tema che il pittore dipinge nella Cappella di Francesco Maria II d'Urbino, nel 1582-83; qui emerge un sentimento più contenuto, non spettacolarizzato. Federico fu dapprima allievo del fratello maggio Taddeo Zuccari, che aveva studio di pittura a Roma. Nel 1565 entra a far parte dell’Accademia di Disegno a Firenze. Il disegno sarà un tratto distintivo di tutta la sua vita artistica.
Condition Report
ZUCCARI, Federico. The Visitation. Mary meets Elizabeth.1539 - 1609 Watercolor pasted on cardboard in octagonal shape. 250x242 mm. Monochrome watercolor in different hazelnut shades. Good conditions. Masterful illustration of the important episode narrated in the Gospel of Luke. In a domestic interior the two women, the young Mary and the older Elizabeth, are at the center of the scene. Behind them two women can be glimpsed, probably Maria di Cleofa and Maria di Salomè. Two men also attend the meeting, in the background: St. Joseph with the stick on the left, and Zaccaria on the right. The representation appears more austere than the monumental fresco on the same theme that the painter paints in the Chapel of Francesco Maria II d'Urbino, in 1582-83; here a more contained feeling emerges, not spectacularized. Federico was first a pupil of his brother Maggio Taddeo Zuccari, who had a painting studio in Rome. In 1565 he joined the Academy of Drawing in Florence. The drawing will be a hallmark of his entire artistic life.
