Antonio Calza
(Verona 1653–1725)
After the battle,
oil on canvas, 93 x 139 cm, framed
Provenance:
Collection Wittock van Landeghem, Temse;
in the same Private Belgian Collection since the 1970s
Antonio Calza is considered a leading exponent of Baroque battle painting. A successful specialist in his genre, he worked in Bologna, Venice, Milan, Rome, and Florence and between 1712 and 1716 was in the service of Prince Eugene of Savoy in Vienna. In Calza’s works, which like those of other seventeenth-century “battaglisti” (battle painters) that harked back to the art of Jacques Courtois, the impact of Salvator Rosa is particularly obvious.
