Natale SchiavoniPortrait of a Young Italian womanSCHIAVONI, NATALE1777 Chioggia - 1858 VeniceTitle: Portrait of a Young Italian woman. Technique: Oil on canvas. Measurement: 82.5 x 66.5cm. Notation: Signed lower left: N. Schiavoni f. Frame/Pedestal: Framed. Provenance:Private ownership, Germany.Natale Schiavoni is one of the most important painters and engravers of the late 18th and early 19th centuries in Italy. Apart from numerous pictures with historical or oriental themes, he devoted himself primarily to the genre of portraiture. Today, he is best known for his depiction of sensuous ladies, mostly shown in semi-portrait. The present painting - which has been in a private collection for about 50 years - shows one of these ladies and is thus representative of Schiavoni's oeuvre: through the interplay of a lascivious gaze, the open hair and the exposed décolleté, Schiavoni generates the image of a femme fatale who captivates the viewer. The strong green and orange of the noble fabrics surrounding her are in direct contrast to the sitter's ivory-like incarnate parts and lend her majestic elegance.
