Painting Description
Filippo Parodi's "Strage Degli Innocenti" is a significant work of Baroque sculpture that exemplifies the dramatic intensity and emotional depth characteristic of the period. Parodi, an Italian sculptor born in 1630 and active primarily in Genoa, was a prominent figure in the Baroque movement, known for his dynamic compositions and expressive figures. "Strage Degli Innocenti," which translates to "Massacre of the Innocents," depicts the biblical event described in the Gospel of Matthew, where King Herod orders the execution of all male infants in Bethlehem in an attempt to eliminate the newborn Jesus, whom he perceives as a threat to his throne.
The sculpture captures the harrowing moment with visceral realism, showcasing Parodi's masterful ability to convey intense emotion through marble. The figures are rendered with meticulous detail, from the anguished expressions of the mothers to the brutal actions of the soldiers, creating a powerful narrative tableau. The composition is marked by its dynamic movement and intricate interplay of forms, drawing the viewer into the chaotic and tragic scene.
Parodi's work is notable for its technical prowess and the way it embodies the Baroque ideals of movement, tension, and emotional engagement. The "Strage Degli Innocenti" stands as a testament to Parodi's skill in manipulating marble to create lifelike and emotionally charged figures. This piece not only reflects the artist's individual talent but also serves as a poignant representation of the broader artistic and cultural currents of the Baroque era.
While the exact date of creation and the current location of "Strage Degli Innocenti" may not be well-documented, the work remains an important part of Filippo Parodi's artistic legacy and a significant example of Baroque sculpture.
