A Carnival Scene Oil on canvas, 72.1 by 89.5, cm, by the circle of Faustino Bocchi, 17th-18th century Location unknown |
||||||||||
| A raucous carnival scene filled with fantastical dwarf-like figures engaged in various theatrical and festive activities, set against a mountainous backdrop. The artist's elaborate portrayal of grotesque physiognomies and bustling vignettes reflects a conscious delight in visual excess and comic distortion, in keeping with the eccentric spirit of Bocchi’s late Baroque legacy. |
