	glbtq >> arts >> Guercino (Giovanni Francesco Barbieri)
		Guercino's earliest paintings are in an intensely dramatic Baroque style, but, by the mid-1620s, he had developed a classicizing manner.
		Guercino was born February 2, 1591 in Cento, a small town in the Italian region of Emilia, located about halfway between Bologna and Ferrara.
		Whatever the dynamics of their association, Guercino's respect for his assistants is revealed by the fact that, in opposition to usual practice at the time, he did not appropriate any income that they earned from executing works independently.

	Guercino
		Giovanni Francesco Barberi was nicknamed Guercino because he was guercio,or cross-eyed.
		Guercino ran his Cento studio until 1642, when Guido Reni, who had loathed him, died.
		A previous owner has noted "Guercino" as the author of this drawing, in which St. Peter watches as St. Thomas reaches around from the right to insert his left hand into the wound in Christ's side at Jesus' command so that he might not perish through his unbelief.

		Guercino painted otherworldly characters such as saints, mythological gods and goddesses, and allegorical figures, all with the same degree of dignity as seen in his drawings of everyday characters.
		Guercino observed and recorded his surroundings in these small vignettes of every day life to then create a more beautiful version of the world in his paintings.
		Guercino ennobles these mundane, every day acts, by charging them with a sense of intimacy and loveliness.

		Guercino began his drawings in pen and ink and often later added wash to create a painterly effect.
		Given the presence of several pentimenti, Guercino’s sketches of genre scenes have an immediacy that suggests the artist was working quickly and directly from life.
		Guercino often used these snapshots of life to poke fun at his subjects.

	Saul Attacking David by GUERCINO
		Guercino painted the pair of canvases in 1646 for the Cardinal Falconieri, who was at the time serving as Papal Legate to Bologna.
		Guercino's increasing tendency towards classicism began in the 1630's when the painter fell under the influence of the late work of Guido Reni.
		Like its pendant, the Saul Attacking David is a splendid example of his late style, a period in which Guercino brought his investigations into classicising style to their fullest conclusion.

	glbtq >> arts >> Guercino (Giovanni Francesco Barbieri)
		Throughout his career, Guercino introduced angels (who were consistently represented as male figures in this era), even when their presence was not justified by existing accounts or the usual iconography.
		Guercino visualized the Vocation of Saint Luigi Gonzaga (1650, Wrightsman Collection, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York) in allegorical terms, with the saint ecstatically looking towards a handsome angel.
		As is the case with many of his other religious paintings, the presence of the angels is justified neither by accounts of the saint nor by pictorial tradition.

		E' stata proprio la cittadina centese, a cavallo tra le province di Ferrara, Bologna e Modena a dare i natali a Francesco Maria Barbieri detto appunto il Guercino (1591-1666).
		Interessante è poi la sosta alla dimora del Guercino in via Cremonino dove è esposta una lapide commemorativa; al palazzo in Corso Guercino ove ebbe sede la Bottega centese del maestro, suggestiva e imponente fortezza militare tardo-quattrocentesca di fronte alla quale è collocata la statua del Guercino opera dello scultore locale Stefano Galletti.
		Intanto in autunno, per quindici giorni, sarà allestita a Bolzano una mostra che avrà lo scopo di ricostruire un ambiente che richiama quello in cui il Guercino realizzava le sue opere, con l'aiuto dei suoi numerosi allievi.

	Guercino on artnet
		Giovanni Francesco Barbieri, known as Il Guercino (‘the squinter’) because he was cross-eyed, was by the second decade of the 17th century one of the foremost painters in the province of Emilia.
		Among his local patrons was Alessandro Ludovisi, the Cardinal Archbishop of Bologna, and when Ludovisi was elected Pope Gregory XV in 1621, Guercino was summoned to Rome to work for the pontiff and his nephew, Cardinal Ludovico Ludovisi.
		The papacy of Gregory XV was short-lived, however, and on the death of the Pope in 1623 Guercino returned to his native Cento, though he continued to receive commissions from patrons throughout Italy and beyond.

	Sito Ufficiale Galleria Barberini - Guercino - Et in Arcadia Ego
		In diretta connessione con l'Apollo e Marsia della galleria Palatina, eseguito da Guercino per il Granduca di Toscana nel 1618, nel quale compare lo stesso gruppo dei due pastori.
		Opera giovanile di Guercino eseguita dopo il suo viaggio a Venezia, dove erano particolarmente diffuse le allegorie moraleggianti, ma prima del suo soggiorno romano (1621-23), la tela è stata datata tra il 1618 (Mahon) e il 1622 (Wild).
		L'iconografia del Memento mori in ambito pastorale, derivata dalle Egloghe di Virgilio, ebbe ampia diffusione in ambito veneziano e romano a partire dal periodo rinascimentale, viene qui esplicitato con l'aggiunta dell'inscrizione per la prima volta nella storia dell'arte e della letteratura (Cola, 1996).

		Influenciado por Ludovico Carracci en Bolonia y por la obra de Tiziano en Venecia, Guercino (bizco en italiano) desarrolló un estilo barroco de ricos colores, fuertes contrastes de luces y sombras y grácil representación del movimiento.
		Bajo el mecenazgo del papa Gregorio XV, Guercino pintó el fresco de la Aurora (1621, Villa Ludovisi, Roma) y otras obras de inspiración más clásica, como el Entierro de santa Petronila (1621, Museo Capitolino, Roma).
