Donato Creti<\/strong>
Cremona, 1671 – Bologna, 1749
Portrait of a young boy<\/em><\/strong>
Black chalk on paper.

fig.1<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nAfter training with his father Giuseppe Creti, Quadrature<\/em> painter (perspectives), Donato Creti continues his apprenticeship in Bologna with Lorenzo Rapparini then Lorenzo Pasinelli. In the latter’s workshop, he meets the young Pietro Ercole Fava whose father Alessandro becomes his protector and patron. Working for twenty years at the Fava palace, he also received orders for palace decorations such as the Palazzo Pepoli Campogrande in Bologna or the palace of the family of Counts of Novellara. In 1709 Donato Creti appeared among the founders of the Accademia Clementina or the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna, of which he became director in 1712.  <\/p>\n

\nThe importance of drawing for Donato Creti is quickly signaled by his contemporaries. Biographer Giampietro Zanotti notifies in his work as early as 1739 Storia dell’Accademia Clementina<\/em> that he drew with the pen, without a draft underlying the black chalk, on sheets, covering them with landscapes or scenes with many characters[ 1 ]<\/a> and that he liked to offer them[ 2 ]<\/a>. Artist Marcantonio Franceschini greets the artist as a grandissimo disgnatore<\/em>[ 3 ]<\/a>, likewise the young painter Crespi praises : penna molto felice<\/em>[ 4 ]<\/a> and specifies that not a day went by without Creti drawing on any medium : Altreo non faceva disignare su libri, sulle carte, e perfino sulle tavole, e su i muri col carbon, e coll’inchiostro<\/em>[ 5 ]<\/a>.  <\/p>\n

fig.3<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nDonato Creti performs, with black chalk on gray paper, a portrait of a young man of three quarters whose gaze is directed down to the left. The identity of the model is not known but two other drawings seem to reproduce the face of the same boy: a Young man’s head<\/em>[ 6 ]<\/a> ( fig. 1 ), three-quarters to the left fixing the spectator who passed on the art market in 2008 and another[ 7 ]<\/a> ( fig. 2 ), leaning forward to the left, kept at the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen in Dresden. We can also bring our drawing closer to another Portrait of a young man[ 8 ]<\/strong><\/a><\/em> ( fig. 3 ) repeating the same pose with the gaze directed to the left and wearing a brocade jacket.   <\/p>\n
