Talk:San Domenico, Cingoli

Proposed merge with Madonna of the Rosary (Lotto)

edit

Notability of the church and its painting does not appear particularly independent, and would be a stronger article if unified. ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 12:42, 27 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

The painting is independently notable; it has been exhibited elsewhere and is the subject of art historical writing in the context of Renaissance art, or Venetian painting, or Lotto's body of work. Bernard Berenson devoted five pages to the painting in Lorenzo Lotto: An Essay in Constructive Art Criticism (1911). The Madonna of the Rosary was included in an exhibition of 103 of Lotto's paintings at the Palazzo Ducale in Venice in 1953, when a reviewer wrote of it that "the invention of puttos scattering rose petals is one of the most charming details in the whole of Italian painting in that century". (Morassi, Antonio. "The Lotto Exhibition in Venice". The Burlington Magazine, vol. 95, no. 606, 1953, pp. 290–298.) When it was shown in a Lotto exhibition in Rome in 2011, a review named it one of the most memorable works. (Brown, Beverly Louise. Renaissance Studies, vol. 26, no. 3, 2012, pp. 450–459.) It merits its own article, and I suspect the church does as well. Ewulp (talk) 00:51, 4 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
Closing, given the uncontested argument of independent notability. Klbrain (talk) 11:52, 15 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
