Est: -
Gaetano Esposito, Mediterrane Felsenküste Blick von einer von Bäumen und Blumen bewachsenen Anhöhe, hinab auf eine mediterrane Bucht mit Felsen, großformatiges, beeindruckendes Zeugnis aus dem späteren Œuvre des Künstlers, hierzu bemerkt die neapolitanische Kunsthistorikerin Luciana Soravia, Esposito habe in seinen Landschaftsbildern der felsigen Küste in der Bucht von Neapel die höchsten Ausdruckserfolge erzielt, dabei habe der Künstler eine "lyrische und unwirkliche" Atmosphäre vermittelt, in seinem dezenten und doch satten Colorit, das an Küstenszenen großer Jugendstilmeister erinnert, erzeugt Esposito hier ein idealisiertes und doch wirklichkeitsbezogenes Abbild vom immerwährenden italienischen Sommer, Öl auf Leinwand, um 1900, rechts unten signiert "G. Esposito", rückseitig auf dem Keilrahmen von fremder Hand schwer leserlich bezeichnet "Polo [...] Mantova", auf Etikettfragment nochmals künstlerbezeichnet, großflächige Retuschen und geringe, vertikal verlaufende Farbverluste im Bereich links oben, in versilberter breiter Leiste im Passepartout hinter Glas gerahmt, Falzmaße 63,5 x 109 cm.

Gaetano Esposito, Mediterranean Rocky Coast View from a hill overgrown with trees and flowers, looking down on a Mediterranean bay with rocks, large-format, impressive testimony from the artist's later oeuvre; the Neapolitan art historian Luciana Soravia notes that Esposito achieved his greatest expressive successes in his landscape paintings of the rocky coast in the Bay of Naples, The artist conveyed a "lyrical and unreal" atmosphere; in his subtle yet rich colouring, reminiscent of coastal scenes by great Art Nouveau masters, Esposito creates an idealised yet realistic image of the perpetual Italian summer, oil on canvas, around 1900, signed lower right "G. Esposito", inscribed "Polo [...] Mantova" by an unknown hand on the stretcher on the reverse, inscribed again by the artist on the label fragment, extensive retouching and minor vertical loss of colour in the upper left area, framed behind glass in a wide silvered mount, folded dimensions 63.5 x 109 cm.
