Ribera around 1625: a new ‘Saint Francis'

Giuseppe Porzio
The presentation of a new canvas by Jusepe de Ribera, representing 'Saint Francis of Assisi Praying', has prompted reconsideration of a lesser-known moment in the Spanish artist's stylistic development around the middle of the 1620s; a turning point marked by considerable mellowing of the pictorial matter and colours, which in Neapolitan circles would have important repercussions on the style of artists such as Giovanni Ricca, Pietro Novelli and Francesco Guarino.
