• Resumen

  • This article presents the unpublished inventory of the Ferrarese painter Ippolito Scarsella which was discovered in the Archivio Notarile Antico of the State Archive in Ferrara. One partial version had already appeared in the painter's last monograph edited by Maria Angela Novelli. However, new research has led to the discovery of the integral version of the document, which is far more analytical and rich. Drawn up in the 1620, the inventory an important instrument to cast light on the furniture of the workshop from that period not so well known up to now. The enumerated goods refers to the private home but we can include also some rooms dedicated to the artistic practice where there are a lot of paintings, either completed or sketched, or only "imprimite" together with a great number of models in different material, collection of prints, drawings and books. Even though the iconography of the paintings are quite diffused, it is possible to propose some identification with Scarsellino's well known work and we might try to research the artistic method of production of a successful painter of the early Seventeenth century in Ferrara.
