"Alea iacta est" Julius Caesar crosses the Rubicon. Attributed to Vincent Adriaenssen (Antwerp, 1595 - Rome, 1675) The painting, attributable to the production of Vincent Adriaenssen, depicts the historic crossing of the Rubicon bridge that took place in January 49 B.C., marking Julius Caesar as an enemy of the Res Publica. As such, he faced opposition and attacks from Pompey's troops. The composition, with its broad scope, combines a pictorial style where strong Mannerist impulses intertwine with naturalistic landscape realizations of Central European breadth. The style appears as a perfect blend of the refined and static compositional choices of the Cavalier D'arpino, balanced by the landscape openings of Tempesta, culminating in the extreme torsions of Rubensian manner. The painting strikes the viewer as a frenetic theatrical scene, where vivid colors and sharp juxtapositions evoke the ever-changing desires of the costumes. Epoch: Early 17th century Provenance: Private collection in Naples Technique: Oil on canvas Dimensions: Unframed, 100 x 73.5 cm Condition: The painting is in excellent state of preservation. Frame included as a gift.
