Brossura. Zustand: fine. Firenze, Casa Buonarroti, September 26, 2023 - January 8, 2024.Edited by Linda Falcone.English Text.Prato, 2023; paperback, pp. 124, 118 col. ill., cm 20x20.(The Florentine Press). Artemisia Gentileschi's Allegory of Inclination (1616) tributes the genius of Michelangelo, gives a nod to Galileo, and bears a striking resemblance to Artemisia herself. During its conservation at Casa Buonarroti, the canvas was removed from its ceiling heights, and placed at eye-level in the Florentine home-museum where Artemisia worked while five months pregnant, receiving a salary three times that of her male counterparts, and earning the esteem of her patron, Michelangelo the Younger. Artemisia UpClose documents this once-in-a-lifetime encounter and celebrates a project that encompasses research, restoration and an exhibition, in which world-renowned curators, conservators, philanthropists, art historians, restoration scientists and the art-loving public come together to discover the untold mysteries of an extraordinary artist and her censored artwork, painted over with draping not long after its creation, now unveiled - virtually - for the world.
