The glass bulbs are incredible. Apparently the second painting depicts the same boy model.

Richard, on the Museum site, there's a Visit the Museum tab - go to Visitor Information - Museum Policies - General / Photography and Sketching. I envy you!
Garth - I envy you, too! I saw the boy with the glove on my trip there also. I have the exhibition book - there are so many paintings that are such a feast for artists who want to use texture as part of their paint language. To me, texture underscores the mysterious correlation between two of our senses, touch and sight. Thanks for these closeups.

I wish I could have visited the exhibition in Philadelphia in person... Thank you so much for this thread, I was able to acquire the book at least.
It doesn't have my favourite version of The Little Seminary, I am attaching a copy of it with this message. A large jpg can be found on the web (1396x2000 pixels).
Here are a few pictures of the "Ritratto della Principessa Tina Pignatelli" which can be seen at the Museo Civico di Castel Nuovo in Naples.
The light inside the building, and the angles at which I took the photographs show the amazing texture of the painting.

In the same room they have this small work by Mancini's friend Vincenzo Gemito. It might be of interest to those who are touched by Mancini's work.

I just wanted to add my two cents. It is a wonderful show, absolutely worth seeing if you possibly can. It is free if you visit the museum on a Sunday, when there is no admission. I saw it twice and I am planing on seeing it again before it closes. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) I didn't take any of my own photos at the show, but here is my favorite posted below, After the Duel.
Garth and Jean-Francois, thanks for posting the images. When I see one that was not included in the show, I can't help but feel frustrated. Wouldn't it be amazing to see all his work together?
