The exhibition presents the extraordinary collection of 99 miniatures on enamel commissioned by Count Giovanni Battista Sommariva, a patron and neoclassical collector. Created between 1810 and 1825, the \u201ctraveling Pinacoteca\u201d reproduces the masterpieces of his collection, transforming art into an elegant tool for personal representation.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n


The wealthy Count Giovanni Battista Sommariva<\/strong> (1757-1826), a fervent supporter of Napoleon, was the greatest collector of the Neoclassical era, as well as a great patron, commissioner, and protector of artists, especially French ones.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Between 1810 and 1825, the count commissioned five highly skilled miniaturists of the time (Ad\u00e8le Chavassieu d’Haudebert, Henri L’Ev\u00eaque, Pierre \u00c9douard Gautier Dagoty, Giambattista Gigola, and Abraham Constantin) to reproduce many of the paintings in his collection on enamel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He thus created a \u201cportable pinacoteca\u201d <\/strong>that accompanied him on his numerous trips around Europe, proudly displaying it as his personal calling card. Nobles, princes, diplomats, ambassadors, intellectuals, and ladies who frequented the salons of the European nobility of his time observed the small paintings with wonder and amazement: a veritable \u201ctraveling<\/strong> pinacoteca<\/strong>.\u201d

Consisting of 99 beautiful miniatures in enamel on copper framed by fine gilded bronze frames, the \u201ccatalog<\/strong>\u201d made great art pr\u00eat-\u00e0-porter.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
