| | Anton Raphael Mengs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Anton Raphael Mengs (March 12, 1728 - June 29, 1779) was a German painter. | | | In his writings, in Spanish, Italian and German, Mengs has put forth his eclectic theory of art, which treats of perfection as attainable by a well-schemed combination of diverse excellences Greek design, with the expression of Raphael, the chiaroscuro of Correggio, and the colour of Titian. | | | Besides numerous paintings in the Madrid gallery, the Ascension and St Joseph at Dresden, Perseus and Andromeda at Saint Petersburg, and the ceiling of the Villa Albani must be mentioned among his chief works. |

| | Anton Raphael Mengs Biography / Biography of Anton Raphael Mengs Biography Biography |
| | Anton Raphael Mengs was born in Aussig, Bohemia, on March 22, 1728, the son of a painter, Ismael Mengs, whose pupil he became. | | | The artistic theories as well as the works of the German painter Anton Raphael Mengs (1728-1779) were influential in the rejection of baroque ideas and the triumph of neoclassicism which took place in the late 18th century in Rome. | | | Mengs is discussed in Fritz Novotny, Painting and Sculpture in Europe, 1780-1880 (1960), and Eberhard Hempel, Baroque Art and Architecture in Central Europe (1965). |

| | VIA ARTIS - Anton Raphael Mengs |
| | Mengs´s father felt a strong attachment to painting; to such an extent that he wanted his son to be baptized under the names of two of the most outstanding Italian painters: his first names were Anton and Raphael, in memory of Correggio and the immortal Raphael Sanzio. | | | Mengs was working in the Vatican, Rome, between 1769 and 1772, later returning to Spain, where the artist remained from 1773 to 1777. | | | Considered one of the most important contemporary painters, Anton Raphael Mengs tried not to depict the great dramatic and dynamic elements common in the Baroque style, but those developed by Raphael, Corregio and Titian. |

| | Although Anton Rafael Mengs was born in Bohemia he was of German ancestry, his parents returning to Saxony soon after his birth. | | | Mengs received his earliest training from his father in Dresden and during a youthful sojourn in Rome, where he studied the great Italian renaissance painters and worked in the studio of Marco Benefial. | | | In October 1759 Charles VII inherited the Spanish Crown as Charles III and, as his court painter, Mengs spent several years in Madrid painting decorations in the Royal Palace. |

| | Anton Raphael Mengs in Spanish Literature - Biblioteca Virtual Miguel de Cervantes |
| | Mengs, «the son of Apollo and of Minerva», is prized both for his art and for his learning, both as a model and as a guide. | | | Admiration for Mengs appears repeatedly in the works of Jovellanos, the greatest representative of the Enlightenment in the Spain of the second half of the eighteenth century, a refined conoisseur of art, friend and patron of Goya, and a friend of Mengs's friends, though there is no indication of his having met the painter. | | | Mengs was also on good terms with Manuel Salvador Carmona, one of Spain's leading engravers, who engraved some of his work and shortly before the painter's death married his daughter, Anna María Theresia (Águeda, Catalogue 22). |

| | Anton Raphael Mengs (Getty Museum) |
| | Like many artists during the 1700s, Anton Raphael Mengs developed his masterful painting skills by studying works from antiquity, the Renaissance, and the Baroque, all of which he encountered while in Italy. | | | Aside from time spent working as a court painter in Dresden and in Madrid, Mengs spent the remainder of his life in Italy painting altarpieces, frescoes, and Grand Tour portraits of young English aristocrats, for whom he also acted as an art and antiquities dealer. | | | Mengs began to study art seriously at the age of twelve, when he accompanied his father on a trip to Rome. |

| | Jewish Art: Art History and the Jews |
| | Before the end of the 18th century literally nothing worth mentioning in painting appeared from a Jewish hand – that is unless one includes the dubious case in England of Johann Zoffany or, in Italy, that of Anton Raphael Mengs, who was possibly of mixed birth and was a Christian. | | | There were, however, in that century quite a number of third-rate Jewish artists who for commercial reasons felt capable of extending their work in the minor arts to that of portraiture, particularly in Germany following a general easing of the human likeness prohibition. | | | In the Middle Ages and during the Renaissance the minor arts of bookbinding and manuscript illumination were also captured by the Jews and elaborate Jewish book illumination reached a climax in Italy, greatly influenced as it was by Italian art. |
