G. GIGANTE (1806-1876), Cave of Seiano (Posillipo), 1827, Etching
Est: €750 - €1,000
Giacinto Gigante (1806 Naples - 1876 ibid.): View of the sea from the hill of the Grotta di Seiano (Posillipo), 1827, Etching Technique: Etching on Paper Inscription: lower left signed in the printing plate: "Gigante". Inscribed by another person: "Fuori Grotta". lower left dated: "1827". Date: 1827 Description: The Gulf of Naples, with its azure waters and volcanic rocky landscape, has long attracted artists and pleasure travellers to its shores. In addition to Naples and Sorrento, it was the small coastal town of Posillipo in particular that Romantic artists favoured in the 1930s. To the west and east, the slopes there offer stunning views of Naples, Mount Vesuvius and the islands and peninsulas near the coast. Depending on the location, a forest landscape and the architecture of a small settlement could even come into view, as in this brochure, while the sweeping bay of the famous gulf remains visible on the horizon. A group of landscape artists centred around Anton Smick van Pitloo (1790-1837), whose pupil was Giacinto Gigante, settled in Posillipo and founded the so-called "Posillipo School". The paintings of this group were characterised by their detailed and realistic depiction of the landscape in the Gulf region. One looks in vain for heroic exaggerations in the vedute of the "School of Posillipo", and instead finds harbour views with fishermen and country folk going about their daily lives. In view of our etching, which, apart from the prominent friar in the foreground, is sparsely populated but contains many scenic details, it is hardly surprising that Gigante also worked as a topographer during his training. The precise understanding of topographical features, the location and course of coasts and roads, as well as the accurate depiction of towns and landscape markers, were important foundations for the artist's work, whose vedutas became increasingly picturesque and romantic as he grew older.

Giacinto Gigante Watercolor, Signed, Measures (14.5 x 10.5 inches) w/frame (18.5 x 14.5 inches) The son of a minor landscape painter, Giacinto Gigante worked as an engraver early in his career. He completed his artistic training in the Neapolitan studio of the Dutch painter Antoon Sminck Pitloo, who encouraged his students to paint 'all’aperto', or out of doors. Gigante exhibited for the first time in 1826, showing four watercolours at the annual exhibition at the Museo Borbonico. He contributed illustrations for the books Viaggio pittorico nel regno delle due Sicilie, published between 1829 and 1832, and the Esquisses pittoresques et descriptives de la ville et environs de Naples published in 1832.

Napoli, 1806 - 1876 Veduta di Napoli dalla Conocchia Firmato Giac Gigante, Napoli 1841 in basso a sinistra Olio su tela, cm 50X76,5 Giacinto Gigante è stato il rappresentante più autentico e più completo della Scuola di Posillipo. Frequenta in giovanissima età lo studio di Huber passando successivamente nella scuola del Pitloo, frequentata da molti giovani artisti di talento. Invitato dall'imperatrice russa a seguirla in un suo viaggio in Sicilia, comporrà per lei un album di paesaggi, e per l'imperatore eseguirà due grandi vedute napoletane. Su invito di re Vittorio Emanuele rappresenterà con un acquerello la Cappella del Tesoro di San Gennaro animata da figure, che ben dimostra la sua grande qualità pittorica. La sua era una tecnica particolare che amava definire a mezza-tempera: la pennellata è veloce, senza tralasciare la cura minuziosa del dettaglio, attraverso un impasto di colore dai toni luminosi che gli permette di realizzare limpide ed ariose vedute.

Gigante has captured the view from his beloved Posillopo. This tranquil scene with the evening light bathing the figures and illuminating the buildings, revealing day to day life in the Neapolitan landscape. The style and overall type of the painting point to its likely execution during the 1840s. The work can be compared closely on stylistic and compositional grounds to treatments of the subject showing a comparable treatment of light and a similar characterisation of the figures during this period.
