Still Life with Grapes and a Bird Promised Gift of Stanley David Moss (L.2016.26) «Renaissance artists and patrons were obsessed with Pliny's Natural History which contained detailed descriptions of great works of art from antiquity The fact that most of those works no longer existed added allure to their imagined perfection Among the most intriguing was a picture of grapes by the famous Zeuxis (fifth century B.C.) that was "so successfully represented that birds flew up to it." Executed as part of a competition Zeuxis found himself beaten by his archrival Parrhasius who painted a curtain so realistically that Zeuxis reached out to pull it back but Parrhasius had fooled an artist at his own game!» There can be no question that Antonio da Crevalcore (1443–1525) had this story in mind when he painted Still Life with Grapes and a Bird considered to be one of the earliest extant independent still lifes in European painting Crevalcore was compared to Zeuxis by a contemporary poet who counted among his patrons the fascinating Isabella d'Este (1474–1539) a passionate collector of Greek and Roman antiquities and an avid reader of classical texts In 1506 she received a picture described as "fruit done by Antonio da Crevalcore who among us is most singular in this kind of work Left: Studiolo from the Ducal Palace in Gubbio (detail) Designed by Francesco di Giorgio Martini (Italian Related LinksEuropean Paintings: Recent Acquisitions 2015–16 on view at The Met Fifth Avenue through March 26 Now at The Met: "Growing The Met's Collection of European Paintings" (December 12 Factory produces components for internal combustion engines Marelli has paused plans to close its Crevalcore plant in Italy saying it had asked an adviser to seek potential buyers for the site The supplier announced last month its intention to close the facility which produces components for internal combustion engines (ICEs) Marelli said the facility had become “unsustainable” due to the switch to EVs The company said it had agreed “to find a solution that will ensure the industrial and employment continuity of the Crevalcore site” after a meeting with Italy’s industry and labour ministries trade unions and a representative for the Emilia Romagna region Reuters noted Marelli did not withdraw its plan to end operations but the decision has given parties involved more time to avoid closure Don’t let policy changes catch you off guard Stay proactive with real-time data and expert analysis The closure was expected to happen around the end of this year “We wanted a complete and full withdrawal of the closure procedure,” Gianluca Ficco of the UILM union said adding the temporary suspension allows unions “to start a discussion” Talks were scheduled to continue on 8 November Nominations are now open for the prestigious Just Auto Excellence Awards - one of the industry's most recognised programmes celebrating innovation This is your chance to showcase your achievements Don't miss the opportunity to be honoured among the best - submit your nomination today Give your business an edge with our leading industry insights View all newsletters from across the GlobalData Media network By clicking here, you agree to our Terms and Conditions and consent to us collection your details for the purposes of your enquiry Reporting by Giulio Piovaccari in Crevalcore and Giselda Vagnoni in Rome;
