Visit to the exhibition “Salvator Rosa (1615-1673): Bandits, Wilderness and Magic” with Xavier Salomon, Curator, Dulwich Picture Gallery
This fascinating exhibition will explore the work of Salvator Rosa (1615-1673), a rebel and radical, who was one of the boldest and most imaginative artists in seventeenth-century Italy. He invented new types of painting – dramatic landscapes, allegorical scenes of a haunting and melancholy character, fanciful portraits of romantic and enigmatic figures, and philosophical subjects touching on the major philosophical ideas and scientific concerns of his age.
