I hear from Didier Rykner, and La Tribune de l'Art about a great acquisition at the Met. They've just bought a Madonna, Child and St John by the late Florentine artist- Santi di Tito.
Santi wearying of the obsessive stylization of Bronzino and co, turned back towards the light of Raphael, Andrea dal Sarto and Fra Bartolommeo for guidance. I was going to end my Florentine course with Bronzino, but I might try to fit in Santi and some of these late 16th century academic painters, maybe even Baroccio.This painting dating from the 1570s epitomises what Sydney Freedberg said of this painter's work in this decade.
"Maniera conventions now hardly apply, but conventions of a more classicizing kind do, academically rephrased from Sarto's and even Bartolommeo's models of the High Renaissance."
Sydney Freedberg, Painting in Italy 1500-1600, 1971, (624).
Kudos to the Met for buying this.
good thing to work on for anyone inclined to Possin studies - parallel to Carracci 'reforms' or 'reformulations' - & Baroccio likewise (tho rather Correggio different) -- the non Caravaggio/Venetian line -- Baroccio of course is in Bellori's collection of Lives

La tauromaquia es un arte a que tenemos que dejar su libertad. No apruebo totalmente ese arte pero es una cultura por la que familias, generaciones enteras viven. Y luchar contra las pasiones (no solo la tauromaquia sino otras como el grafiti por ejemplo) que? no nos agradecen particularmente, es una falta de respeto, una falta de tolerancia. Y ir hasta prohibir esos artes, es algo peligroso que va a matar nuestras identidades y vaciarnos nuestros corazones.
