*GASPARE DIZIANI (1689-1767)
Gaspare Diziani Biography
(b Belluno, 1689; d Venice, 17 Aug 1767). Italian painter and draughtsman. His earliest training was in Belluno with Antonio Lazzarini (1672–1732), the last exponent in the Veneto of Baroque tenebrism. Having moved to Venice, he joined the workshop of Gregorio Lazzarini and later that of Sebastiano Ricci, who was in Venice until 1715 and exerted the strongest influence on his development; presumably Diziani was familiar with Ricci’s many paintings in Belluno before becoming his pupil. Between 1710 and 1720 he painted a group of eight pictures that included the Mary Magdalene for S Stefano, Belluno, and the Entry into Jerusalem for S Teodoro, Venice. His speed of production and technical assurance are demonstrated especially in his preparatory oil sketches, with colour applied in rapid and spirited penlike strokes. He was also working as a scenery painter in many Venetian theatres, an employment that led to commissions first in Munich (1717) and later in Dresden, where he was highly acclaimed. According to Canal, Diziani was invited to Rome by Cardinal Pietro Ottoboni in 1726, to paint a ‘magnificent decoration for the church of S Lorenzo in Damaso’; Longhi, however, placed this visit earlier than the journeys to Munich and Dresden. The decoration is now known only through an engraving by Claude Vasconi (see Pavanello, fig. 3).
