Description : L'incontro del centurione Cornelio con l'apostolo Pietro

Mixed technique on paper (charcoal, pen, brown ink, watercolor and white lead). Signed Pasqual Otin lower left; coming from a private collection, there are the brands of two previous collections, Dalla Bella and Frigerio. The work is also accompanied by a critical study by dr. Francesco Vincenti and a certificate of authenticity from the Orler Collection. It is a fascinating drawing by Pasquale Ottino known as Pasqualotto, a Veronese painter (the surname Otin corresponds to the Venetian wording) who, after a period of training in Rome, embarked on a painting career in Verona marked "by the Caravaggesque luminism declined in the Venetian style with the use of robust colourism ". Also in this drawing the Counter-Reformation tendency is already perceived, for the meaning of immediate teaching, linked to the dramatic expressiveness of the characters. The episode recounted, drawn from the Acts of the Apostles, sees a Roman centurion who begs for blessing from Peter, inside a room that draws light from the window and is filled with other characters from the newspaper, the attendant on the right and the servant who brings bread and wine to the tray on the left. Central is the intense gaze between the two protagonists, accompanied by the hint of a smile on their lips, to express the joy of the encounter of Salvation. Framed.

Additional Information

Artist: Pasquale Ottino detto il Pasqualotto (1578-1630)

Born in Verona, where he completed his first artistic training, Pasqualotto subsequently moved to Rimini first and then to Rome, where he approached the new pictorial trends of the century. Returning to Verona around 1610, he quickly established himself on the art scene as a painter of large and articulated altarpieces. Ottino painted on various supports such as copper, canvas and touchstone, and his painting turned out to be a mixture of various schools. He died of the plague in his hometown in 1630.
