EDITORS COMMENTS
This self-portrait, created by Paolo de Matteis in the early 18th century, showcases the artist's mastery of oil painting. The image depicts a distinguished man, presumably the artist himself, against a backdrop of lush Italian landscape. With vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail, Matteis captures not only his own likeness but also the essence of the Baroque art movement. The composition is enriched by the presence of an angelic cherub hovering above the subject's shoulder. This celestial figure adds an element of mystique and spirituality to the portrait, reflecting both religious themes prevalent during that time period and Matteis' own artistic style. The use of color in this piece is particularly striking; bold hues bring life to every brushstroke. The warm tones evoke a sense of vitality and energy while simultaneously highlighting Matteis' skillful technique. As we gaze upon this remarkable work of art, we are transported back in time to 18th-century Naples. It serves as a testament to Matteis' talent as well as his contribution to Italian art history. Preserved within Museo di Capodimonte in Naples today, this self-portrait continues to captivate viewers with its beauty and timeless appeal. Photographed by Stefano Baldini with great precision and care for detail, this print allows us all to appreciate and admire one of Paolo de Matteis' most significant works from afar.
