EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable portrait of the renowned castrate singer Carlo Broschi, also known as Farinelli. Taken during his trip to Venice in the early 18th century, this drawing by Anton Maria Zanetti beautifully captures Farinelli's essence and charisma. Farinelli was widely celebrated for his extraordinary vocal abilities, which were preserved through castration at a young age. His talent and unique voice mesmerized audiences across Europe, making him one of the most famous singers of his time. In this portrait, Farinelli is depicted in an elegant pose, exuding confidence and grace. The intricate details of his attire and expression reveal the artist's meticulous attention to capturing every aspect of Farinelli's persona. During his visit to Venice, Farinelli performed Tommaso Albinoni's opera "La Didone abandonnata" leaving a lasting impression on both critics and fans alike. This portrayal serves as a testament to the impact that he had on Italian opera during this period. The drawing not only highlights Farinelli's musical prowess but also offers insight into the world of castrati singers who played such an important role in Baroque music history. Displayed at Galleria Cini within Fondazione Giorgio Cini in Venice, Italy, this artwork provides viewers with a glimpse into the life and artistry of one of opera's most legendary figures.
