EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable "Portrait of Francesco Bernardi Senesino, a Siennese castrato" engraved by Alexander van Haecken in 1735. The image, measuring 35x25 cm, is part of the esteemed Gerald Coke Handel Collection at the Foundling Museum in London. Francesco Bernardi Senesino was a renowned Italian opera singer and one of the most celebrated castrati of his time. His exceptional vocal range and mesmerizing performances captivated audiences across Europe during the Baroque era. In this portrait, artist Thomas Hudson beautifully captures Senesino's commanding presence and enigmatic expression. The engraving serves as a testament to Senesino's close association with composer George Frideric Handel. Known for their artistic collaboration on operas such as "Giulio Cesare" these two musical geniuses were not without their conflicts. It is said that they often clashed over creative differences, adding an intriguing layer to their professional relationship. As we gaze upon this striking image, we are transported back in time to witness the extraordinary talent and charisma possessed by Francesco Bernardi Senesino. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both his immense contribution to music history and his complex dynamic with Handel – a true treasure for any art enthusiast or lover of classical music.
