Cantaro, Maria Teresa: The rediscovered portrait of 'wild' Antonietta Gonzales. From Ulisse Aldrovandi Collection/ Il ritratto di Antonietta Gonzales 'salvatica' ritrovato. Dalla collezione di Ulisse Aldrovandi. 2024. 128 pages, illustrated. Paperback. 24 x 17cms. Account of Antonietta Gonzales' portrait, recently rediscovered beneath a 'Madonna and Child' painting in the style of Bernadino Luini. Through radiographic analysis, the study traces the portrait's provenance to Bolognese naturalist Ulisse Aldrovandi's collection (1522-1605), suggesting it was created by Lavinia Fontana (1552-1614). The book discusses the historical context, the rediscoverey of the portrait, and links to other known examples, such as a drawing in the Pierpont Morgan Library and the portrait in the Royal Museum of Blois. Text in English and Italian.

Portrait dans un mirroir
Fayard 1953 190 pages in12. 1953. cartonné simili cuir. 190 pages. Morgan passe pour une sorte d'héritier de Thomas Hardy douloureusement en quête de l'Esprit (lui-même aimait à se dire néo-platonicien). Trois de ses ouvrages en tout cas ont pris rang parmi les classiques de ce siècle : Fontaine (1932). Sparkenbroke (1936) - et ce Portrait dans un miroir (1929) qui les avait précédés de peu. Un jeune peintre à l'avenir prometteur est convié à faire le portrait de la jeune femme qu'il aime en secret. Un portrait qu'il n'arrivera jamais à achever... Plus qu'à l'oeuvre de Thomas Hardy c'est à celle de Henry James que renvoie Portrait dans un miroir aimanté de bout en bout par cette idée profondément jamesienne que nos ratages sont à la fois la part la plus intime et la plus grande de ce que nous sommes puisque c'est par eux que notre vie se mesure à la Mort
