Bernini’s painting collection: a reconstructed inventory raisonné
Abstract
Here presented is the first comprehensive inventory of the paintings on display in Gian Lorenzo Bernini’s home by artists other than himself at the time of his death in November 1680. Although inventories of Bernini’s household dating from 1681 to 1771 have previously been published, none by itself is sufficient to provide a complete catalogue of the artist’s collection. By collating the family inventories with what is known of Bernini’s career, personal and professional relationships, the oeuvre of the artists identified in the inventories, and data from art market records and provenance databases, the author has compiled the most detailed description of Bernini’s collection so far available, including, wherever possible, proposed new attributions, more accurate subject descriptions, and indications of the present whereabouts of the works.</jats:p
