Beheading of St. John the Baptist sent on January 23, 2015 (13:34) by Dantes. 20 comments, 1491 views. [retina]

, 1/8 f/8.0, ISO 1600, hand held.

Tempera su tavola 177 x 141 cm Daniele da Volterra realizzò il dipinto forse come pala d'altare per l'Oratorio di San Giovanni Decollato a Roma, per la quale ricevette effettivamente la commissione nel 1551. Daniele, fra i più stretti seguaci di Michelangelo, oltre che suo amico affezionato, ne reinterpretò il plasticismo in termini personali, con suggestioni derivate dai primi manieristi fiorentini ? quali Rosso Fiorentino e Pontormo ? e vivaci interessi luministici. Con un'impaginazione di grande impatto visivo, il dipinto rappresenta il corpo del Battista riverso a terra, mentre l'aguzzino sta per raccogliere la testa decollata che poserà sul vassoio di Salomè. L'autore diede prova di un'intensa articolazione plastica e di una resa anatomica monumentale, che insieme alla forte tensione emotiva e religiosa furono caratteri propri del suo linguaggio. Il quadro, menzionato da Giovanni Cinelli nel 1677 in Palazzo Niccolini a Firenze, venne comprato nel 1840 per la Sabauda presso il barone Ettore Garriod, sempre a Firenze.

L'inquadratura amplifica il realismo del quadro, visto come da una finestra

The shot amplifies the realism of the picture, as seen from a window

Magnifica riproduzione: due cose strane, che ti lascino fotografare, a meno che tu non abbia qualche permesso particolare, e poi, sapendo quanto sia difficile fotografare olio ma anche tempere, che tu abbia il controllo così perfetto dell'immagine. E poi c'è la luce, usi il flash, o altri tipi di illuminazione, e comunque 1/8 di secondo a mano libera, davvero complimenti per la tua mano fermissima. Sei un gran divulgatore della nostra arte, un saluto.

Magnificent reproduction: two strange things, that you leave photograph, unless you do not have any special permission, and then, knowing how difficult it is to photograph oil but also tempera, you have control so perfect image. And then there is light, use the flash, or other types of lighting, and at 1/8 second freehand, really compliments your hand steadfast. You're a great popularizer of our art, a greeting.

Erode lo fece decapitare a causa delle severe critiche che rivolgeva al re, macraba..... Giovanni Battista era il cugino di Gesu' venerato da tutte le Chiese cristiane è presente anche nel Corano come uno dei massimi profeti che precedettero Maometto.
Era un soggetto molto frequente nella pittura di Michelangelo da Caravaggio il quale realizzò almeno otto dipinti con questo tema.
Ben eseguita il dipinto molto bello e lo scatto! complimenti, un saluto! Sorriso

Herod had him beheaded because of severe criticism addressed to the king, macraba ..... John the Baptist was the cousin of Jesus' venerated by all the Christian Churches is also present in the Qur'an as one of the greatest prophets who preceded Muhammad.
It was a very frequent subject in the painting of Michelangelo da Caravaggio who created at least eight paintings with this theme.
Well done the painting very nice and shooting! congratulations, greetings! :-)

Fabiana mi vuoi detronizzare: complimenti per la tua disquisizione!!!MrGreen

Ellebi un cordiale saluto e come già riportato in un'altra discussione: "da fine maggio 2014 è entrato in vigore il decreto ministeriale sulla cultura (Decreto Legge n.83 31/05/2014, convertito in Legge 29/07/2014 n.106). .Il decreto ArtBonus va in questa direzione e cambia in parte la vecchia regolamentazione [Codice dei beni culturali e del paesaggio Decreto Legislativo 22 gennaio 2004, n. 42] . La liberalizzazione dello scatto fotografico nei musei italiani è ora possibile con qualsiasi dispositivo elettronico privo di flash, cavalletto o stativo e nel rispetto delle persone in sala. La foto deve però essere utilizzata per fini non di lucro e in tal caso può essere condivisa sulle reti sociali.Da questa liberalizzazione sono esclusi la riproduzione dei beni archivistici e bibliografici." quindi come vedi nessun flash ma solo le luci presenti in sala, cioè voglio dire che sono un comune spettatore che fa fotografie come tanti altri cercando di ottimizzare inquadrature e illuminazione con un pdr adeguato, poi non tutte le ciambelle riescono con il buco!!! certo è che il canon 16-35 f4 IS mi da una grossa mano!!!

Micio e Jessy sempre graditi i vostri commenti!!!;-)

Quindi un buon week end a voi tutti, Dante


Fabiana I want to dethrone: congratulations for your disquisition !!! :-D

Ellebi a friendly greeting, and as already mentioned in another thread: "by the end of May 2014 came into force on the ministerial decree on culture (Decree Law 83 of 31.5.2014, converted into Law 07/29/2014 n. 106). .The decree ArtBonus goes in this direction and changes in part the old regulation [Code of cultural heritage and landscape Legislative Decree 22 January 2004 n. 42] . The liberalization of depiction in Italian museums is now possible with any electronic device without flash, tripod or stand and respect for people in the room. The picture, however, must be used for non-profit and in this case can be shared on networks sociali.Da this liberalization are excluded playback of archives and bibliografici. "then you see no flash but only the lights in the room, that is to say that they are a common spectator taking pictures like many others trying to optimize framing and lighting with a pdr adequate, then not all the donuts they can with the hole !!! certain is that the Canon 16-35 f4 IS gives me a big hand !!!

Cat and Jessy always welcome your comments !!! ;-)

So a good weekend to you all, Dante

Ciao Dante, anni fa ho avuto la fortuna di vedere la decollazione di Giovanni Battista del Caravaggio. Era a Firenze per restauro e stava per ripartire in nave per tornare a Malta. Un dipinto veramente spettacolare, ma anche questo non scherza. Buona luce, commento poco ma ti seguo! Gianfranco

Hello Dante, years ago I was lucky enough to see the beheading of John the Baptist by Caravaggio. It was in Florence for restoration and was about to start in the ship to return to Malta. A painting really spectacular, but this is no joke. Good light, but little comment I follow you! Gianfranco

ciao Adri e Gianfranco, scatti di dipinti importanti ne ho fatti diversi ma non li posterò tutti, massimo ancora 4 foto e poi cambio argomento, un'altra cosa è visitare dal vivo questa Galleria Sabauda che quasi quasi ti porta via mezza giornata se la si vuole visitare a fondo, certo che non è la National Gallery a Londra ma il costo del biglietto viene abbondantemente ripagato dal bagno di cultura pittorica che ti avvolge in un ambiente veramente rilassante!
grazie della visita amici e buona serata!
Dante

hello Adri and Gianfranco, shots of paintings I've made several important but not post them all, maximum 4 still pictures and then change the subject, another thing to go live this Savoy Gallery that almost takes you half a day if you wants to go to the bottom, it is not certain that the National Gallery in London but the cost of the ticket is abundantly repaid from the bathroom of pictorial culture that surrounds you in a truly relaxing!
thanks for your visit friends and good evening!
Dante
