GIUSEPPE ANTONIO PIANCA

Agnona 1703- after 1757

STILL LIFE OF VEGETABLES

oil on canvas

canvas: 32 by 25⅜ in.; 81.3 by 64.5 cm.

framed: 38¾ by 31¾ in.; 98.4 by 80.6 cm.

Predominantly active in Lombardy, Pianca was nevertheless inspired by the Genoese Alessandro Magnasco and the Venetian Sebastiano Ricci. His idiosyncratic style is marked by strong colors and rapid brushstrokes, as apparent in the present work.

We are grateful to Dr. Anna Orlando for suggesting an attribution to Giuseppe Antonio Pianca after first-hand inspection.
