Купить джикле-репродукцию Achille and Pentesilea

Pacetti’s terracotta, representing Achilles and Penthesilea, won the Concorso Balestra prize in 1773. The theme of the competition, which was organised by Anton Raphael Mengs, was the death of Penthesilea. The artist has set the group on a dramatic rocky base, the protagonists’ pathos accentuated by the diagonal of Achilles’s arm as he struggles to hold up the lifeless body of Penthesilea, and by the hero’s mantle which, still swollen with wind, hints of the battle just ended

Vincenzo Pacetti: Life and Legacy

Early Life and Training

Born: Rome, Italy in 1746.
Vincenzo Pacetti began his artistic journey at the Accademia del Nudo, honing his skills in anatomical study and figure drawing.
He furthered his training from 1766 to 1772 under the tutelage of sculptor-restorer Pietro Pacili. Upon Pacili’s death, Vincenzo took over his studio.

Career and Artistic Development

Pacetti quickly established himself as an independent sculptor and was accepted into the Accademia di San Luca, serving as its director – a testament to his growing reputation.
Bartolomeo Cavaceppi, another prominent sculptor-restorer, held Pacetti in high regard, even naming him as executor of his will.
Pacetti’s work evolved around the intersection of sculpture and restoration. He wasn't merely a copier; he actively *completed* fragmented classical works, sometimes adding significant portions based on his artistic judgment.

Major Achievements & Notable Works

The Barberini Faun (1799): Perhaps Pacetti’s most celebrated work. He restored and completed this iconic sculpture, adding a new right leg, now housed in the Glyptothek, Munich.
Hope Dionysus: Currently residing in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this piece exemplifies Pacetti's skill in completing ancient fragments.
Athena of Velletri (1797): Now located in the Louvre, this sculpture showcases his ability to bring classical forms back to life.
Extensive work at the Galleria Borghese, including reliefs and stucchi for the Sala degli Imperatori – notably “The Goat Amanthea” and “Perseus freeing Andromeda”. He also contributed to rooms housing Bernini’s masterpieces.
Other works can be found in churches like San Salvatore in Lauro, Santo Spirito in Sassia, Santi Michele e Magno, and the Palazzo Carpegna.

Patronage and Later Life

Lucien Bonaparte became a significant patron later in Pacetti’s career. He commissioned numerous plaster casts of famous antique sculptures for his villa at Canino.
Pacetti's diary, covering the years 1773–1803, and his correspondence provide invaluable insights into the Roman art market during that period.
Died: Rome in 1820.

Historical Significance & Legacy

Vincenzo Pacetti occupies a unique position in art history as both a sculptor and a restorer. His work raises questions about authenticity, artistic intervention, and the interpretation of classical forms.
He played a crucial role in shaping the understanding and appreciation of ancient sculpture during the Neoclassical period.
His diaries remain an essential resource for scholars studying the art market and restoration practices of 18th and 19th-century Rome.
