					<description><![CDATA[This artwork was published in <em>La pittura neoclassica italiana, </em>by A. Cera, Longanesi, Milan 1987.

“Son of the painter Giovanni and Anna Laura Scarsella, Tommaso Maria Conca was born in Rome on 22nd December 1734 and was baptised at S. Lorenzo in Damaso on the 24th. A funeral eulogy preserved in the Archives of the Accademia di S. Luca (vol. LXXII, n. 116, also in S. Conca, 1981, pp. 391 - 392) contains the main points of his biography. Conca spent a part of his childhood in Turin where his father, invited by the king of Sardinia, lived from November 1738 to June 1748, after which he returned to Rome. At his father's school Conca learned the principles of drawing and painting ”. – Enciclopedia Treccani, Tommaso Conca]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The painting depicts an episode in the life of Scipio The African, who is mentioned for the first time in Livio (26.50), mentioned again in Polybius (10, 17, 19) and rhymed in Petrarch (Africa, 4, 375-388). The Roman leader Scipio, having conquered the Spanish city of New Carthage, is being offered a young woman as part of his victor's booty. But upon learning that the girl has been betrothed, Scipio summons Allucio, the man she was supposed to marry, and returns her to him, along with the sum of ransom that the girl’s relatives had managed to scrape together and offered to him, in the hopes of freeing her. This was a rather popular theme in Venetian painting between the 17th and 18th century.

The most evident compositional and thematic prototype, which inspired many others, is to be found in the paintings of Sebastiano Ricci at Palazzo Marucelli-Fenzi in Florence and at the National Gallery of Parma ...

					<description><![CDATA[This large "Fruit still life with a young woman and two children" has long been acknowledged as work of Giovanni Paolo Castelli, known as "Lo Spadino”. He’s the most famous member of a family of artists who specialised in still life, and were active in Rome in the second half of the 17th century and in the first decades of the following century (Bocchi and Bocchi 2005, I, pp. 609, 616). As regards the human shapes, critics have in addition identified the hand of Antonio Mercurio Amorosi who collaborated with Castelli on several occasions. Amorosi was an extremely versatile painter, recorded as a copyist, restorer and artist of sacred altarpieces, but he owes his fame mainly to genre painting and portraits, especially those of children, characterised by extreme realism. There are more works by a joint collaboration between Antonio Amorosi and Lo Spadino, such as "Bacchus with a fruit basket" from a private collection auctioned at…
