Arcimboldo
Arcimboldo grandfather was an archbishop, his father - an artist.
Giuseppe began his career in the workshops of the Duomo, creating stained glass windows and frescoes with scenes from the lives of the saints.
It is difficult to say where and with whom he studied. In any case, was influenced by Leonardo da Vinci, it is known that Arcimboldo served cartoons for tapestries in Ferrara. In Prague, he was a designer and director of festive performances.
Was employed by the Habsburgs in Austria and Bohemia (1562-1587), first - with the imperial court of Ferdinand I in Vienna - as a portrait painter-copyist, then, when the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian becomes II (1564), Arcimboldo - an artist at the court.
He was perceived as friends of people with a universal erudition and highly developed creative genius. Most of his contemporaries, also known people who looked at him with admiration because of his talent and his creativity not only in painting but also in organizing the games, weddings, coronations, processions. In fact, he became artistic director of the Emperor Maximilian II.
He answered at the court of architecture and theater decoration of all activities. At the same time, he - an engineer, creator of the fountain, takes part in the base of the Museum of Art. Arcimboldo became the main organizer of the tournaments, fairs and festivals of luxury for aristocrats, scientists and artists. All this, to glorify the emperor to strengthen his political power and entertain people, to present the monarch as a hero.
With the support of Maximilian, he performed the first version of the series "Seasons", which was presented to the Emperor at New Year's Day (1569).
In 1570 Arcimboldo was sent to Prague to Rudolph, the son of Maximilian, to design a complex theatrical performance for Maximilian (the plot - a mixed classical mythology and Czech) and remained to serve Rudolf II, when he ascended the throne of the Hapsburgs (1575) after the death of Maximilian II.Pri it , besides, he invented hydraulic machines.
Eleven years old, who served as artist Rudolf II, was probably the peak of his career. The Emperor is extremely loved and appreciated Arcimboldo.
Arcimboldo in those years, wrote the second version of the Seasons "(1573), dedicated to Emperor red leather folio containing 150 drawings pen and ink (1585).
In 1587, after numerous requests from Arcimboldo Rudolf II allowed him to return to his native Milan. In the same year, Arcimboldo was asked the emperor to continue to write for him, although he no longer served at the court. In 1591, written probably the most famous of his paintings - "Flora" (1591) and "Vertumn (1590-1591), which he sent to Prague.
The following year, July 11, 1593, the painter died.
"Vertumn was particularly valued by society and especially by Rudolf. This is a - half-length portrait of the emperor, represented as the Roman god of seasons, vegetation, and conversion. Rudolph consists entirely of gorgeous fruit, flowers and vegetables. Fascinated by these pictures of Rudolf II generously awarded Arcimboldo.
There are opinions that a large number of paintings were written between 1564 and 1576, but only very few of them are known to us. Retained little of his work: This is usually portraits of breast, in profile, at least - full face. Images are composed of fruit, vegetables, flowers, crustaceans, and other musical instruments, books, etc. Those are stylized, very clever arrangement of elements in the space creates the effect of form and chiaroscuro. Allegories of the seasons: "Summer" and "Winter", 1563 (Museum of Fine Arts, Vienna), "Spring" (Academy of San Fernando, Madrid); elements - "Fire" in 1566 and "Water" in Vienna Museum of Fine Arts. Figure in the Louvre Museum - "Chef" - is composed of kitchen items.
Arcimboldo was very popular during his lifetime, which explains a lot of imitations of his style.
