Federico Beltrán-Masses (1885-1949)
Il successo, l'oscurità e poi la riscoperta
Beltrán Masses è stato inondato di onori pubblici ed è stato membro delle Accademie di San Fernando a Madrid, San Jorge a Barcellona e San Luís a Saragozza, nonché quelle di Lisbona, Cordóba e Málaga, e anche membro dell'Istituto francese ed Accademia delle Belle Arti di Parigi.
Il fatto che il suo nome sia stato quasi dimenticato fino a poco tempo è in parte la conseguenza di cambiamenti nel gusto, pittura figurativa abbandonata da tutti tranne una manciata di pittori contemporanei di successo dalla fine degli anni Quaranta fino agli anni Settanta.

Caravaggio | Buona ventura / The Fortune teller, 1630
La Buona Ventura - The Fortune Teller, è un dipinto ad olio su tela dove Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio 1571-1610 sfoggia la propria conoscenza della pittura di genere, premessa sulla quale in seguito Caravaggio costruirà una vera e propria rivoluzione che investe il significato stesso del 'fare pittura'.
Il quadro rappresenta una zingara che, mentre legge la mano ad un giovane soldato, gli sfila abilmente l’anello. Secondo un biografo, Caravaggio avrebbe invitato a posare per il quadro una zingara che passava per
caso per strada.
Il dipinto è una precoce espressione dell’immaginario della zingara dedita al furto ed anche ammaliatrice, capace di incantare ed ingannare.
