Summary
| Description |
Français : Dans une opulente initiale E, les mages qui entourent la Vierge sont tirés de modèles italiens. Une colonne rompue de marbre vert signe la fin du paganisme. Alors que le peintre fait montre de sont talent dans le rendu de l'espace, de la lumière et des volumes, la présence d'un mouche peinte en trompe-l’œil sur le tronc de l'arbre témoigne de son érudition : ce détail illusionniste est une citation de la fameuse mouche de Giotto, que celui-ci aurait placée sur le nez d'une figure que peignait Cimabue, son maître, qui aurait vainement tenté de la chasser.
English: In the splendid letter E, the Magi surrounding the Virgin are inspired from Italian works. The broken column of green marble symbolizes the end of paganism. While the painter shows his talent in the rendering of space, light and volumes, the presence of a fly painted in trompe l'oeil on the trunk of the tree testifies to his erudition: this illusionist detail is a quotation of Giotto's famous fly, which he would have placed on the nose of a figure painted by Cimabue, his master, who would have vainly tried to chase it away. |
