The Upright Motives were part of a large commission for the courtyard of the new Olivetti building in Milan. When he visited the site, 'a lone Lombardy poplar growing behind the building convinced me that a vertical work would act as the correct counterfoil to the horizontal rhythm of the building. This idea ultimately grew into the: Upright Motifs.'

Domenico Morelli (Naples, 1823-1901) Cesare Borgia in Capua, 1854 Oil on canvas 131 x 183.5 cm Provenance: Count Tasca d'Almerita of Palermo Literature: Almerinda Di Benedetto, 'The painted history: Domenico Morelli and the Sack of Capua' in Rosanna Cioffi, Ornella Scogliamiglio, MOSAIC, Themes and methods of art and criticism for Gianni Carlo Sciolla, vol. 2, Luciano Editore, 2012 Exhibition: Exhibition of Fine Arts in Palermo, 1856, presented as: Cesare Borgia after the siege of Capua makes women who had taken refuge in a basement of the castle draw It is above all through the letters to his friend Pasquale Villari that we know the various moments of the work that allow the painter Domenico Morelli to complete the painting 'Cesare Borgia in Capua', commissioned by the wealthy German entrepreneur Ettore Giulio Marstaller. On September 26, 1849 Domenico Morelli wrote to Villari that Marstaller had been very interested in a 'drawing sketch representing Cesare Borgia after the capture of Capua who chooses among the women locked up in a tower 40 of the most beautiful and we agreed that he will execute the painting of the same size as the bodies, with torchlight'. The relationship between the painter and the client was somewhat troubled, to the point that Domenico Morelli proposed the painting to another buyer. Completed in the spring of 54, due to Marsteller's death, the painting was sold in January of the following year to Count Tasca d'Almerita of Palermo. In 1856 the painting was thus presented at the Exhibition of Fine Arts in Palermo with the title 'Cesare Borgia after the siege of Capua makes women who had taken refuge in a basement of the castle draw', obtaining enthusiastic judgments to such an extent that in the magazine 'Il Poligrafo' the regret of not being able to grant the Neapolitan painter a diploma of gratitude, as the regulation provided for it only for Sicilian artists. The certain motivations for Morelli's choice of this dramatic historical event are not known, but, as Almerinda Di Benedetto points out, it is shown 'certain, however, that the identification of an event so historically full of meaning, both for the terribleness with which the events took place, and for the very strong symbolic message transmitted by the behavior of the Capuans, strenuous and indomitable defenders of their own land and of the moral and civil values linked to it, appears more than appropriate in an era permeated by deep Risorgimento and patriotic moods'. In relation to the terrible decision of the ruthless Duke Valentino to perpetrate an unprecedented massacre in Capua to the detriment of the helpless population, which came to count a few thousand victims, the professor and researcher Almerinda Di Benedetto recommends the 'very recent publication by Giancarlo Bova, Il sacco di Capua, July 24, 1501, in which the author contributes, with the contribution of unpublished documents, to make greater clarity on the chilling story of the memorable massacre'. As far as the purely pictorial aspect is concerned, in the year 1925 Vittorio Spinazzola would have condensed the description of the work in the following lines: 'the lush canvas, in which all the virtues of his imagination, his brush, the wise research, the sensuality of the forms, the tumultuous yet Latinally contained impetus of the composition were employed, connecting to our Venetian or seventeenth-century Neapolitan tradition, in which the wonderful bottom of battlemented walls and towers glimpsed in a gold dust and the mastery of the groupings, the glimpses, the nudes, would be enough to show how much his mastery of the drawing, the brush, the form would be enough'.
