Lot Description
Giorgio Soldaticz (1873-1955)
Religious triptych, early XX century (Rome)
Central part (oil on canvas), sides (oil on panel)
Overall size 75 x 119.5 cm (29 1/2 x 47 inches)
Original authentic wooden frame
Each part of the triptych is signed by the artist
Son of the Hungarian painter specialized in sacred art Ferenc Szoldatics (Balatonalmádi 1820 – Rome 1916), «the last of the Nazarenes», Giorgio Szoldatics learned the trade from his father, reinterpreting religious painting through the filter of the lesson of Domenico Morelli, from which the symbolist approach to the subjects also derives. In the first decade of the twentieth century his technique was profoundly renewed, thanks above all to his active participation in the artistic debate of the Capital, where in a short time he established himself as one of the most appreciated portraitists of high society, sharing the primacy with influential interpreters of worldliness such as Camillo Innocenti and Arturo Noci. In addition to exhibiting assiduously at important Italian and international exhibitions, from the annual events of the “Società degli Amatori e Cultori di Belle Arti in Roma” to the Venice biennials, Szoldatics frequented some of the most important painters of his time, including his friend Giacomo Balla.
