Description
Giovanni Battista Tiepolo,
Italian 1696-1770-
The Fall of the Rebel Angels, after Sebastiano Ricci;
black chalk on paper, inscribed 'hi34' verso, 30.8 x 24.3 cm.
Provenance:
Alberto Sichel Morales, Christie's, London, 26 June 1974, lot 61 (as 'Saint Michael and the Rebel Angels').
Property of the Late Professor Eric Gerald Stanley, FBA (1923-2018) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Stanley).
Note:
The present composition was directly informed by Ricci's (1659-1734) painting in oils of the same scene, completed c.1717-18, and housed in the collection of the Dulwich Picture Gallery, London [DPG134]. Ricci and Tiepolo were both active in Venice at the same time, with Ricci's theatrical, Baroque approach undoubtedly influencing Tiepolo's own exuberant compositions, which in turn marked out the latter as an important and early proponent of the Rococo style. Indeed, Tiepolo himself produced a strikingly similar version of the same scene for his ceiling fresco for the Archiepiscopal Palace in Udine, in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region, around 1726.
