Descrizione

Tavola Strozzi , reproduction of the famous oil on canvas  from the 15th century, Museum of San Martino,  Naples , probably attributable to the painter Francesco Rosselli. 

The painting takes the name of Tavola Strozzi because it was found in Palazzo Strozzi in Florence and reproduces the historical reconstruction of the Aragonese fleet which returned victorious in the port of Naples against the pretender to the throne Giovanni D'Angiò in 1465. The painting has above all historical value more than pictorial as it can be considered the first "portrait" of the city. 

The view of medieval Naples can be used to reconstruct the urban layout of the Neapolitan city. Bright colours and a viewpoint that seems to come directly from the sea are the characteristics of this work.
