Distinguished by his brilliantly energetic brushwork, Giovanni Boldini (1842 1931) was one of the most prominent Italian artists of the late 19th century. Still, he has remained little known beyond his native country. This beautiful book is the first published on Boldini in English in a generation and accompanies the first major exhibition of his works outside of Europe. Born in Ferrara, Boldini moved to Paris in 1871, where he lived for the rest of his life. This important volume focuses on his work from 1871 to 1886, which reflects the influence of his contemporaries Degas, Manet, Caillebotte, Meissonier, and Fortuny, among others. It features Boldini’s fanciful paintings made for the art market and depictions of the city around him from the bustling streets and squares to cafés, theaters, and concert halls as well as paintings of friends and models, and a selection of later portraits that established him as one of the quintessential portraitists of the Belle Époque.

Catalogo della mostra tenuta a Rovereto nel 2020. "Affermatosi come uno dei più celebri ritrattisti della Belle Époque, grazie al suo straordinario virtuosismo tecnico, Giovanni Boldini (Ferrara, 1842 - Parigi, 1931) ha saputo cogliere l'essenza di un ambiente sfolgorante, di cui è stato uno dei più celebri protagonisti. I suoi ritratti di nobildonne, attrici, muse eccentriche e raffinati intellettuali, incontrati nei salotti mondani nella Parigi fin de siècle, incarnano il fascino di una società allo stesso tempo decadente ed elegante, e celebrano una femminilità suprema e irresistibile, come scrissero i cronisti dell'epoca. Il catalogo ripercorre la vita e l'opera dell'artista nella sua completezza, dalle prime prove del suo precoce talento nella natia Ferrara, al suo rapporto con gli artisti macchiaioli negli anni trascorsi a Firenze, fino al trasferimento a Parigi e alla sua affermazione come ritrattista mondano, ricercato da una ricca clientela internazionale. Il piacere, evocato nel titolo, allude non soltanto a un clima condiviso tra l'arte di Boldini e l'opera letteraria di Gabriele D'Annunzio - qui illustrato per la prima volta attraverso studi e documenti inediti - ma anche all'emozione suscitata dalla sua pittura, caratterizzata da sciabolate di colore, pennellate vibranti e rapide, di grande modernità. Irrequieti pionieri nelle rispettive arti e sofisticati interpreti del loro tempo, Boldini e D'Annunzio contribuirono a costituire un'estetica che fu una vera e propria nuova visione del mondo, nutrendo - come scrive Tiziano Panconi - il culto della bellezza quale sunto di eleganza e stile di vita, imprescindibilmente legato alla valorizzazione dell'arte, della cultura e dell'io." Formato: 351 p., 28 cm, bross.

Giovanni Boldini (1842 –1931) was an Italian genre and portrait painter who lived and worked in Paris for most of his career. He was born in Ferrara, the son of a painter of religious subjects, and in 1862 went to Florence for six years to study and pursue painting. He only infrequently attended classes at the Academy of Fine Arts, but in Florence, met other realist painters known as the Macchiaioli, who were Italian precursors to Impressionism. Their influence is seen in Boldini's landscapes which show his spontaneous response to nature, although it is for his portraits that he became best known. Moving to London, Boldini attained success as a portraitist. He completed portraits of premier members of society including Lady Holland and the Duchess of Westminster. From 1872 he lived in Paris, where he became a friend of Edgar Degas. He became the most fashionable portrait painter in Paris in the late 19th century, with a dashing style of painting which shows some Macchiaioli influence and a brio reminiscent of the work of younger artists, such as John Singer Sargent and Paul Helleu. He was nominated commissioner of the Italian section of the Paris Exposition in 1889, and received the Légion d'honneur for this appointment. In 1897 he had a solo exhibition in New York. He participated in the Venice Biennale in 1895, 1903, 1905, and 1912. He died in Paris on 11 July 1931.

Depuis que la peinture s'intéresse à l'art du portrait, elle a produit une très grande quantité d'images de chasseurs parmi lesquelles se trouvent bon nombre de chefs-d'oeuvre de l'art occidental (Vélasquez, Goya, Desportes, Nattier, Gainsborough, Stubbs, Boldini.). Qu'ils soient veneurs, fauconniers ou chasseurs à tir, les modèles paraissent très désireux d'être représentés dans la tenue évoquant une activité qu'ils affectionnent. En posant ainsi en habit de chasse, recherchent-ils seulement le moyen de prolonger le plaisir éphémère de la capture ? Ou le costume vient-il signifier un aspect de la personnalité du modèle qui échappe aux traits du visage ? Selon les époques et les circonstances, la tenue de chasse peut-être perçue comme une manifestation de puissance, comme le signe distinctif d'une élite ou d'une communauté sociale. Il peut aussi contribuer à définir le caractère du personnage représenté et préciser ses qualités morales, son aptitude au commandement ou à la vie sociale. L'auteur s'attache à en démonter les codes et à mettre en relation l'évolution de ces images avec celle des pratiques cynégétiques qui les ont inspirées.-----------
