Antonio Carneo
(Concordia Sagittaria 1637–1692 Portogruaro)
The Martyrdom of Saint Sebastian, with Saint Roch and an Angel in the background,
oil on canvas, 171.5 x 114.5 cm, framed
Provenance:
Marchese Raggio d’Azeglio collection, Lomellina;
where acquired by the present owner
We are grateful to Bernard Aikema for suggesting the attribution after examination of the present painting in the original and for his help in cataloguing this lot.
The present painting relates to a panel of the Averoldi Altarpiece by Titian from the 1520s in the Collegiata dei Santi Nazaro e Celso in Brescia. The figure of Saint Sebastian is reproduced fairly accurately, but in the rendering of the landscape there are differences from Titian’s original.
The present free copy is of high quality and shows an identifiable hand: that of the North-Italian 17th century painter Antonio Carneo, who came from Friuli, to the North-East of Venice. The brilliant brushwork, the accentuated chiaroscuro effects, and, above all, the typical way of rendering figures in profile with downcast eyes, are all typical elements found in Carneo’s work.
