- Lot Description
Giuseppe Gabani (Italian, 1846-1900)
Tending the Flock, 1880
signed "Gabani" lower right
oil on canvas, 39 by 52 in.
Born in Senigallia on the Adriatic coast of Italy, Gabani studied at Rome’s Academy of Fine Arts with Cesare Maccari (1840-1919). As a young man, he served in the cavalry, and his horse and animal work is particularly noted. Gabani’s military, Orientalist, and history paintings achieved acclaim across Europe, including exhibitions in Berlin and Turin, among others. This fine pastoral scene in the European tradition depicts a shepherdess and child in a coastal setting. She tenderly holds a new lamb while the flock grazes peacefully. It displays accomplished brushwork and an appealing composition, and was painted in the year Gabani established his own studio in Rome.
