Bronze Age Gold from Wales

Mancini trained in Naples and visited Paris in 1875-76 and 1877-78. In 1883 he settled in Rome. With Sargent's help he achieved a considerable reputation in Britain. His figure paintings were influenced by seventeenth-century Old Masters. They include glittering light effects and incorporate thick impasto, sometimes textured with metal foil, string and other materials. Cafodd Mancini ei hyfforddi yn Napoli, gan ymweld â Pharis ym 1875-76 a 1877-78. Ym 1883 ymsefydlodd yn Rhufain. Gyda chymorth Sargent, gwnaeth gryn enw iddo'i hun ym Mhrydain. Roedd dylanwad hen feistri'r ail ganrif ar bymtheg ar ei beintiadau o ffigyrau. Yn eu plith mae effeithiau golau disglair ac maent yn cynnwys impasto trwchus, gyda ffoil metal, cortyn a defnyddiau eraill yn cyfoethogi'r gwead o bryd i'w gilydd.
