EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic Italian artist, architect, and actor Salvator Rosa (1615-1673), a true Renaissance man of his time. Born in Naples, Rosa is best known for his dramatic and innovative approach to art, particularly in the genre of landscape painting. His unique style, characterized by dark, moody, and rugged landscapes, often populated with bandits and other outlaws, was a departure from the more idyllic and idealized landscapes popular during the Baroque period. Rosa's versatility extended beyond the arts, as he also pursued a career as an architect and an actor. As an architect, he designed several buildings in Naples, including the Church of San Domenico Maggiore and the Palazzo della Prefettura. His theatrical pursuits saw him perform in various roles, most notably as the title character in Shakespeare's "Macbeth" at the Teatro di San Bartolomeo. Despite his diverse talents, Rosa's unconventional lifestyle and controversial subject matter often put him at odds with the religious and political authorities of his time. He was known for his reclusive nature and his disdain for the traditional rules of art and society. This print, with its intriguing and enigmatic depiction of Rosa, serves as a testament to his complex and fascinating character. This image, available from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a rare and valuable glimpse into the life of this extraordinary artist, architect, and actor, whose influence on the art world and beyond continues to be felt to this day.
