Contemporary society seems to stress teeth care as a crucial point of our life, both from a hygienic reason and an aesthetic one. Digestion begins in the mouth due to the chemical action of various substances located there and also because of the more mechanical function of teeth. Chewing should never be understated. Moreover, the cultural significance of smile seems to amplify the urge to pay attention the quality and the state our teeth are in. Almost all toothpaste commercials underline the health aspect and the visual side of a vigorous dentition. So, if you want to ensure a reliable starting point for your digestion, or if you want to display - or at least not to be embarrassed by - your smile, you should pay a little attention to your dentist's suggestions.
Italian Baroque painter Giovanna Garzoni (1600-70) was one of the few distinguished female painters of her time, a distinct achievement in those days. Her lifelike renditions of Baroque genre ranging around the lively replications of fruits, vegetables, flowers, and other still forms including portraiture are Italian art pride until date. Even royals and the other established male Italian painters lauded and utilized her finesse and talent.
She was born in the relatively unknown Italian town of Ascoli Piceno, where she spent her early days. Her artistic inclinations were evident since her very young age. Initially, trained by an unknown painter of the town, Giovanna further honed her artistic skills in the towns of Venice, Turin, Florence, and Naples - the birthplaces of Italian art. Here other Italian artists, like Jacopo Ligozzi (1547-1627), Fede Galizia (1578-1630), and Giovan Batista Ruoppolo (1629-93), influenced her interest towards Still Life.
Garzoni gained tremendous fame and wealth through her wonderful Baroque works. She was a definite envy factor for even the most established male painters of her era. She was the first woman who contributed so much to the Still Life genre. Her most famous works in the style included 'Botanical Art' (1620) made for the Medici Family of Italy and Tempera on Vellum work 'Still Life with Bowl of Citrons' (1640). Her portraits of the Duke (miniature, 1635) and the Duchess of Savoy (1635), Victor Amadeus I (miniature) and Christine Marie, respectively also gained her immense praise for her show of talent. The Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland, Ohio, USA, claims of the artist's travels to Northern Europe as well. In the 1650s, she returned to Rome.
Garzoni remained a favorite for the royals of Italy like the Royal Family of Savoy and the Medici Family of Florence. She even worked at the court of the Duke of Alcala and was an official court painter for the Grand Duke Ferdinando II. Italian art scholar & patron Cassiano dal Pozzo (1588-1657) and Anna Colonna, the wife of Pope Urban VIII's nephew Taddeo Barberini (1603-47) patronized Giovanna. Along with being a competent artist, Garzoni was also a generous woman. In 1666, she bequeathed her entire estate to the Roman painter's guild, the Accademia di San Luca, but on the condition that her tomb be built in the church of Santi Luca e Martina, Rome. The guild kept the promise and yielded her space to the right of the entrance.
