An illustrated guide to Rome through the life and art of the legendary Baroque painter
The Italian Baroque painter Guido Reni (1575–1642) arrived in Rome in the early 17th century, where he painted extensively, forging a vision of the city that was uniquely his own. This volume introduces readers to Rome as seen through the eyes of this Bolognese master, including portraits of him upon his arrival in and departure from the city, and explores the current affairs of his day in order to contextualize the artist’s great success. Images and descriptions of 22 locations around Rome—museums, churches, private and institutional residences—are presented in short descriptive texts focusing on the 17th century, as well as in engravings or paintings portraying them as they were when Reni was living there. The book also includes a selection of 27 works by Reni, accompanied by information regarding their iconography, history and conservation.
