Richly illustrated, this critical edition and English translation
of Malvasia's lives of Domenichino and Francesco Gessi from his
Felsina pittrice offer access to the life and work of two great
masters of seventeenth-century Bologna. Domenichino's life plays a
seminal role in Malvasia's definition of the fourth age of painting
in Italy. From the very beginning, Malvasia pits against each other
Guido Reni and Domenichino, the two champions of the vanguard style
that emerged from the Carracci reform of painting. If Guido becomes
the idol of the Lombard and Bolognese school, more attuned to
tenderness and audacity, Domenichino embodies an ideal of
perfection more in keeping with the Florentine and Roman school,
fond of finish and diligence.
