...MENOS....
Una pintura rara e importante de Giulio Cesare Procaccini que representa la legendaria Judith decapitando a Holofernes, un tema que ha cautivado a artistas desde Caravaggio y Artemisia Gentileschi hasta Kehinde Wiley y Robert Longo. La dramática escena bíblica, representada con un llamativo claroscuro, ejemplifica el dominio de Procaccini de la luz y la emoción, así como su compromiso con uno de los temas más perdurables de la historia del arte: la justicia y el triunfo.


 


Esta obra tiene una procedencia excepcional, ya que fue encargada por Giovanni Carlo Doria, uno de los coleccionistas más destacados de Génova, cuya colección incluía obras de Leonardo da Vinci, Tiziano y Van Dyck, y permaneció en la colección de la familia Doria durante aproximadamente 300 años. Está registrada en el catálogo razonado del artista y cuenta con una extensa historia bibliográfica.


 


Composiciones similares de Procaccini aparecen en importantes colecciones de museos, como la Galería Nacional de Arte de Washington D. C. y el Museo Hermitage de San Petersburgo. Esta pintura representa una oportunidad única para adquirir una obra del artista con calidad de museo, que se distingue tanto por su importancia histórica como por su excepcional procedencia.
