- Title
Un Ippolito Borghese fuori contesto... ma non proprio: il Compianto sul Cristo morto del convento dei cappuccini di Ostra.
- Authors
Cleopazzo, Nicola
- Abstract
A semi-unknown and intensive Lamentation over the Dead Christ, preserved in the Capuchins' Historical Museum in Camerino, but that comes from Ostra, so far assigned to the Emilian or Roman school of the sixteenth century, is here attributed to the Umbrian Ippolito Borghese, painter much appreciated from the Capuchins of the Viceregno of Naples. In support of this restitution, already validated by this link, some comparisons are proposed with certain and documented works by Borghese. Consequently, the author dates the painting from Camerino to the first part of the second decade of the seventeenth century. The author also hypothesizes that the commission of the Lamentation is connected to the relationships, precociously established, between the Umbrian artist and the Roman architect-painter Giovan Battista Cavagna, from 1605 Superintendent of the Loreto's Holy House.
