  Luigi Lanzi - LoveToKnow 1911
LUIGI LANZI (1732-1810), Italian archaeologist, was born in 1732 and educated as a priest.
What was true of the antiquities would be true also, he argued, of the Etruscan language, and the object of the Saggio di lingua Etrusca was to prove that this language must be related to that of the neighbouring peoples - Romans, Umbrians, Oscans and Greeks.
He was buried in the church of the Santa Croce at Florence by the side of Michelangelo.

Seguono Xaus, Laconi, Lanzi, Nieto, Neukirchner, Rolfo e Fabrizio.
Intanto Nieto finisce nello spazio di fuga dopo una staccata sbagliata, Xaus mantiene bene il quarto posto e Lanzi è in lotta con Laconi per il quinto.

In Santa Croce a Firenze, fra le tombe di tanti uomini illustri italiani, è anche quella di Luigi Lanzi "domo Monti Ulmi Agro Piceno", cioè nato nell’allora Montolmo, oggi Corridonia.
Luigi Lanzi nacque però, da famiglia originaria di Montolmo, a Montecchio (oggi Treia) il 14 giugno 1732 dove il padre era medico.
Per la sua salute malferma, Luigi Lanzi si trasferì ai bagni di Bassano ma, dopo l’occupazione austriaca, fu a Treviso poi a Udine per fare ritorno a Firenze soltanto nel 1801.

 CORRADO GIAQUINTO - ADORATION OF THE MAGI
The Adoration of the Magi, identified by Anthony M. Clark as by Giaquinto in 1962 when it belonged to the distinguished collector of Italian Baroque pictures, Walter P. Chrysler, Jr., should be situated near the beginning of a group of works of the same subject.
The eighteenth-century historian, Luigi Lanzi,[7] writing of Giaquinto in his history of painting in Italy, shrewdly observed that the painter ‘was accustomed to repeat himself in the countenances of his figures’.

 Pietro della Vecchia - Biography   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Varotari was the leading painter of the first half of the seventeenth century in Venice, and his style attempted to recapture the classicism of Titian's early manner.
Varotari had a large and successful school, and he was compared by the eighteenth-century historian Luigi Lanzi to the Carracci for the diversity and excellence obtained by his students.
Varotari's pedagogy may have served as an inspiration to Vecchia, who later ran his own academy and was one of the founding members of the Collegio de Pittori, a precursor to the Venetian academy created in 1752.

By way of criticism, there is little to add to the curt corrective provided by Luigi Lanzi more than two centuries ago.
However, direct acquaintance with the work in question does allow us to examine and reject various interpretations, which already seemed distinctly dubious, and turn out to have been based upon limited and misleading information.
E a dir questo, Giorgio mostra di non intendersene" ('this painting by Salviati is very beautiful, and one of his best; however, it is not the most beautiful work in Venice, and in claiming it is, Giorgio reveals his lack of understanding').

Giaquinto utilised the three kings again in a reprise of the present painting, compressing them almost exactly as they appear here into a composition painted on a small copper in a private collection in London.[10] (Fig.
2) Moreover, several years later, as if to confirm Lanzi's observations on his working methods, Giaquinto inserted the figures of the kings, with only minor changes in their poses, physiognomy, and dress, into a presentation of the theme recently acquired by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.[11] (Fig 3).
Perhaps the latest composition in this series of Epiphanies is a painting in Vienna datable to the 1750s incorporating the figure of Caspar, the oldest king, kneeling before the infant Christ in the Virgin’s lap, and Balthazar, the Negro in a turban, and the still-life elements of the kings’ gifts an the basket of doves.[12]
