Circle of Francesco Zugno,
Italian 1709-1787-
Venus and attendants;
oil on canvas, 32 x 43.5 cm.
Note:
The present work recalls that of the Venetian painter Zugno, who produced a number of mythological and Biblical scenes, often set in the foreground of an open landscape populated by isolated trees. In addition to the composition, the artist's treatment of the figures' faces is typical of Zugno and his circle, as is evident in the painting depicting the 'Finding of Moses' attributed to Zugno in the collection of the National Gallery, London [NG3542]. The present work also resembles Zugno's modello of 'The Continence of Scipio' in the São Paolo Museum of Art [MASP.00038].
