BALTHASAR PERMOSER. Marsyas

Marsyas. Artist: Balthasar Permoser (German, Kammer, near Otting, Chiemgau, Bavaria 1651-1732 Dresden). Culture: German, executed Rome or Florence. Dimensions: Overall with socle (confirmed): H. 27 x W. 17 3/8 x D. 11 1/8 in. (68.6 x 44.1 x 28.3 cm); Height of socle (confirmed): H. 6 1/4 in. (15.9 cm). Date: ca. 1680-85. Flayed alive after losing a musical contest to the god Apollo, the satyr Marsyas screams in the midst of his torture. Every aspect of the figure, from squinting eyes to torn tongue and flamelike hair, contributes to this image of torment. Early in his career, the sculptor Permoser worked in Florence, where this bust likely was carved. It is his personal response to Gianlorenzo Bernini's dramatic style, especially the Damned Soul of about 1619 (Palazzo di Spagna, Rome). While important sculptures by Pietro and Gianlorenzo Bernini are represented in the Museum's collection, Marsyas is our first work by Permoser, who helped to transmit the Italian Baroque style to Germany when he returned to his native Dresden.

Descripción:
Traducción automática: Marsias. Artista: Balthasar Permoser (alemán, Kammer, cerca de Otting, Chiemgau, Baviera 1651-1732 Dresde). Cultura: Alemán, ejecutado Roma o Florencia. Dimensiones: total con zócalo (confirmado): H. 27 x W. 17 3/8 x D. 11 1/8 pulg. (68,6 x 44,1 x 28,3 cm); Altura del zócalo (confirmado): H. 6 1/4 pulg. (15,9 cm). Fecha: ca. 1680-85. Desollado vivo después de perder un concurso musical ante el dios Apolo, el sátiro Marsyas grita en medio de su tortura. Cada aspecto de la figura, desde los ojos entrecerrados hasta la lengua desgarrada y el cabello como llamas, contribuye a esta imagen de tormento. Al principio de su carrera, el escultor Permoser trabajó en Florencia, donde probablemente se esculpió este busto. Es su respuesta personal al estilo dramático de Gianlorenzo Bernini, especialmente el Alma maldita de alrededor de 1619 (Palazzo di Spagna, Roma). Si bien importantes esculturas de Pietro y Gianlorenzo Bernini están representadas en la colección del Museo, Marsyas es nuestra primera obra de Permoser, quien ayudó a transmitir el estilo barroco italiano a Alemania cuando regresó a su Dresde natal.
