ITALIAN OIL PAINTING AFTER FEDERICO MALDARELLI
An antique oil painting on board, Vestal Buried Alive, after the original painting, 1890, by Federico or Federigo Maldarelli, Italian, 1826 to 1893. Framed. Federico or Federigo Maldarelli was an Italian painter born in Naples. His father was a painter, but Maldarellis first formal training was under Costanzo Angelini. He first exhibited at the 1839 Mostre Borboniche, a painting of Head of the Holy Virgin. He participated in this exhibition regularly until 1859. In 1855, he was awarded the third class gold medal for his San Gliceria converte e battezza il suo carceriere in the Capodimonte Museum. The painting hung next to the famed Gl'iconoclasti of Domenico Morelli. After the 1860s, he painted almost exclusively historical costume scenes of Neo pompeian subjects. In 1877 at Naples, he exhibited Un episodio dellultimo giorno di Pompei. In 1880 at Turin, he exhibited Suonatrice pompeiana; Fioraia, and Vestale sepolta viva. Other paintings include: Via di Pompei; Costume romano; Etera pompeiana. One of his pupils was Lilla Maldura. One of a kind artwork.
