The article discusses the difficulty of attributing portrait sculpture to Italian baroque sculptors Alessandro Algardi and Giuliano Finelli, suggesting that most unknown sculptures were attributed to Algardi or Gian Lorenzo Bernini before the 1950s, when the career of Finelli, a follower of Bernini, was more thoroughly studied. The authors focus on a c. 1640 portrait bust of Maria Cerri Capranica, part of the collection of the J. Paul Getty Museum in California. The authors trace the provenance of the sculpture and suggest that it should be attributed to Algardi rather than to Finelli. Specific topics include Algardi's bust of Maria Cerri Capranica's father Antonio Cerri, his bust of Giacinta Santivale, and his use of workshop assistants Ercole Ferrata and Domenico Guido. |
