Image: Guercino\, The Cumaean Sibyl with a Putto\, 1651© The National Gallery\, London\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Guercino at Waddesdon: King David and the Wise Women\n\n\n\nOver 350 years after they were painted\, five paintings by renowned Bolognese painter Guercino are on display together for the first time at Waddesdon in a new exhibition. \n\n\n\nThis historic exhibition spotlights one of the great painters of 17th-century Italy\, Giovanni Francesco Barbieri\, known as Guercino (1591-1666). Brought together for the first time since leaving the artist’s studio in 1651 are Waddesdon’s King David alongside two associated paintings of Sibyls from the National Gallery and another Sibyl from the Royal Collection\, painted the same year. \n\n\n\nBorn in the Italian town of Cento\, Guercino was an excellent draughtsman whose compositions were known for their originality. In his lifetime\, he created hundreds of altarpieces and paintings\, becoming one of the most sought-after Italian Baroque painters and enjoying the patronage of popes\, foreign courts\, cardinals and dukes. \n\n\n\nSee\, close-up\, Guercino’s brilliant use of paint to depict silk\, flesh\, ermine\, paper\, wood and stone while conjuring up ideas about inspiration and contemplation\, sight and foresight\, poetry and prophecy. This is an opportunity to explore how King David relates to the sibyls. \n\n\n\nAlso on display and never before seen in public is Guercino’s recently rediscovered depiction of Moses. This is one of the most important additions to Guercino’s body of work and adds to our understanding of his early maturity\, a period considered by many to be his greatest for the dynamism\, vigour and spontaneity of his painting. \n\n\n\nWhat is a Sybil? \n\n\n\nThese female prophets or seers from classical antiquity were popular subjects in the 17th century\, appealing to Baroque artists as models of female authority. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore about Guercino\n\n\n\nGuercino (Giovanni Francesco Barbieri)\, Self-Portrait\, 1630-32. Courtesy of Schoeppler Collection\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGiovanni Francesco Barbieri enjoyed a successful career spent mostly in Bologna and Rome. He acquired the nickname ‘Guercino’ (‘Little Squinter’) due to strabismus (the condition of having a squint). \n\n\n\nAccording to the biographer Carlo Cesare Malvasia\, the infant Guercino was awoken by a loud noise with such a start that he was left with his right eye permanently fixed at an angle. Whether or not this story is to be believed\, this does not appear to have impaired his vision or achievements as a painter. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFree with house and grounds admission. \n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTickets required:House and grounds admission. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Waddesdon Manor\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWaddesdon Manor is an extraordinary French Renaissance-style chateau located in Aylesbury\, Buckinghamshire\, approximately 14 miles from Bicester and 25 miles from Oxford. \n\n\n\nBuilt between 1874 and 1889 by Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild\, a member of the prominent Rothschild banking family\, the manor is renowned for its opulent architecture\, exquisite interiors\, and extensive collections of art and decorative objects. \n\n\n\nSet amidst picturesque gardens and parklands\, Waddesdon Manor offers visitors a glimpse into the lavish lifestyle of the late 19th-century European aristocracy. \n\n\n\nToday\, it is managed by the Rothschild Foundation\, a family charitable trust\, on behalf of the National Trust\, which took over ownership in 1957.
