Guido Reni and Guercino: two artists in comparison
guided tour by Elena Rossoni
Guido Reni and Guercino were among the main protagonists of European seventeenth-century painting but, in addition to each having its own distinctive style, they were two completely different personalities. From the way of leading their lives, to the system of defining the prices of their works, to the relationship with their clients, the two artists distinguished themselves not without failing to talk to each other. The Pinacoteca preserves several of their paintings, through which it will be possible to tell, also through testimonies of the time, differences and relationships
