Olivuccio Ceccarello di Ciccarello (died 1439) was an Italian painter. Little is known of his life. He was a native of Camerino and was active from 1388 until his death. In 2002 works formerly attributed to an obscure painter named Carlo da Camerino were re-attributed to Olivuccio di Ciccarello as it had become clear Carlo da Camerino had never existed.[1]

He worked at Ancona, where he was the most important painter of the gothic painting school.


Carlo da Camerino


Carlo da Camerino was the name given by an Italian art historian to identify an Italian painter who was presumed to have been active in the Marche region around the turn of the 15th century. A painted Crucifix, signed and dated in 1396, made for the church of San Michele Arcangelo in Macerata Feltria was attributed to this artist as well as other works in the Marche region.[2]

Research published in 2002 made clear that the name 'Carlo da Camerino' was based on a misreading of the inscription on the Crucifix in the church of San Michele Arcangelo, which reads as follows:

ALV......DECI..CARELLU DA CAMERINO PIN...

The art historian Cesare Brandi interpreted in 1935 the inscription as the signature of its author:

................CAROLLU DA CAMERINO PINXIT

From that moment the hypothesis of the existence of a painter of the Marche region by the name Carlo da Camerino was formed and subsequently many works were attributed to this artist including a Madonna with Child in Mondavio, dating from the year 1400.

In 2002, on the occasion of an exhibition on the Quattrocento in Camerino, the art historian Matteo Mazzalupi re-interpreted the inscription as:

ALVUCCIU DE CICCARELLU DA CAMERINO PINXIT

thus assigning the painting to Olivuccio di Ciccarello of Camerino.

As a result, in 2002, all works attributed formerly to Carlo da Camerino have been re-attributed to Ciccarello, which suggests a unanimous agreement among art historians regarding the re-interpretation and attribution.[3][4][5]


Works


His works have undergone a remarkable dispersion, and are now exhibited in museums in various countries: in Italy: (Ancona, Macerata Feltria, Urbino, Rome, Bergamo and Milan), in other European countries" (Strasbourg, Cambridge, Stockholm, Zagreb) and in America: (Baltimore, Cleveland, Santiago).

[es] Olivuccio di Ciccarello

Olivuccio di Ciccarello fue un pintor italiano nacido en fecha desconocida en Camerino (por lo que a menudo también se le cita como Olivuccio di Ciccarello da Camerino) y fallecido en 1439. Activo entre 1388 y 1439, fue el gran maestro de la pintura tardogótica en las Marcas a finales del siglo XIV y principios del XV, especialmente en la ciudad de Ancona. Uno de los encargos más importantes que recibió fue una la Adoración de los Magos, pintada por orden del duque de Milán Filippo Maria Visconti en 1429. Tal obra (actualmente perdida) estaba destinada al santuario de la Santa Casa de Loreto. Otras obras suyas se conservan en museos e iglesias de las Marcas (Ancona, Macerata Feltria, Camerino, Recanati, Fermo, Urbino, Mondavio), en los Museos Vaticanos y, fuera de Italia, en Estrasburgo, Cambridge, Estocolmo, Baltimore o Cleveland. Algunas de las obras de Olivuccio di Cicarrello fueron atribuidas en el siglo XX a un supuesto pintor contemporáneo suyo, Carlo da Camerino, y así aparecieron durante años en publicaciones sobre arte. En 2002 se demostró que Carlo da Camerino nunca había existido y que su firma, en realidad, correspondía a la de Olivuccio: el error de un historiador al transcribir su nombre originó la confusión.[1]
