This is the first-ever scholarly publication devoted to the art of
Francesco de Mura (1696-1782), one of the greatest painters of the
Golden Age of Naples. De Mura's refined and elegant compositions,
with their exquisite light and coloring, heralded the rococo, and
his later style was a precursor of Neo-Classicism. His ceiling
frescoes at Monte Cassino, destoyed in World War II, rivalled those
of his celebrated Venetian contemporary, Giambattista Tiepolo
(1696-1770). Yet today, he lacks his proper place in the history of
art. This volume demonstrates why it is now time to reevaluate this
once-celebrated artist.
