About the Item
Pieter Casteels III (Antwerp 1684 - 1749 Richmond) circle
Floral still life
Signed lower left, on the stone: P Casteels
About 1730
Oil painting on canvas
Cm. 57 x 103, In frame 67 x 112
Expertise of Prof. Ferdinando Arisi
The painting is accompanied by a critical study drawn up by Ferinando Arisi who attributes its authorship to the hand of the Antwerp master Pieter Casteels III (Antwerp 1684 - 1749 Richmond), an attribution confirmed by the signature on the stone at the bottom left.
The work, which follows a horizontal development, shows rich floral compositions arranged according to a studied randomness above the architectural fragments of a garden.
The still life documents very well the expressive qualities of the painter, capable in his creations of creating a sequence of similar compositions but without falling into the banality of illustrative replication, showing a descriptive sensitivity of considerable visual impact and refinement.
As specified in the expertise, the still life was created around 1730, following a taste that, from the ways of Gaspar Peter Verbruggen, evolves towards forms typical not only of the Netherlands, but which can easily be defined as European; in Italy, for example, painters active in the Roman-Neapolitan environment such as Gasparo Lopez, Francesco Lavagna and Nicola Malinconico are expressed in a similar way;
Among the paintings that can be compared, we see the two still lifes with flowers over sculpted basins, one of which signed and dated 1729, sold at Christie's, in London, on November 6, 1964.
The work is presented in an excellent state of conservation, completed by an wooden frame gilded.
Equipped with authenticity expertise (FIMA-CINOA).

- De Wit Flowers Still life Paint Oil on canvas 18th Century Flemish Cupids ArtLocated in Riva del Garda, ITJacob De Wit (Amsterdam, 1695 - 1754) attributable/ workshop Pair of Cupids with Garland of Flowers Oil on canvas 91 x 103 cm. - Framed 104 x 115 cm. Provenance: Christie's (London, Old master Painting 12.12.1996) lot 82 This magnificent composition depicts two cupids holding a garland of flowers, placed on a fine architecture with bas-reliefs and masks, presumably the top of a fountain. One of the two cupids sympathetically holds a part of it with his hands, while his head turns towards the viewer; the second cupid, on the other hand, must have clumsily broken the thread holding its end, and is sitting sullenly with a torch and a tear streaking his chubby cheek. The work, given its stylistic features and compositional taste, can be attributed to the Flemish artist Jacob de Wit (Amsterdam, 1695 - 1754), or to an artist from his workshop, with his typical triumphal and opulent style, which reveals clear influences from Rubens and Van Dijck, but also from Gerard de Lairesse...Category

- Angels Flower Garzi Paint Oil on canvas Old master 17/18th Century Italian ArtBy Luigi Garzi (Pistoia 1638– Rome1721)Located in Riva del Garda, ITRoman school of the early 18th century Luigi Garzi (Pistoia 1638– Rome1721) attributed Still life of fruit supported by three angels Oil on oval canvas 116 x 91 cm., Framed 140 x 119 cm. Authentication on a photograph by Prof Giancarlo Sestieri, who attributes the work to the sphere of Luigi Garzi This magnificent canvas, depicting a sumptuous composition of fruit supported by three prosperous winged cherubs, from which comes a parchment bearing the Latin expression "Amor est vitae essentia", is to be placed in the production of a Roman author active between the second half of XVII century and the first of the following century. The iconography that sees represented cherubs with fruit or flowers is frequent in the Baroque period, especially in the Roman area, starting from the 1600s, with that particular depictional tendency aimed at illusionistic and frivolous images, to a type of paintings or frescoes of strong value decorative, intended for the private context and depicting jubilation of cherubs, angels or cherubs, and of which our canvas represents a perfect example. We can recall, among the most illustrious iconographic precedents, the elegant mirrors painted by Mario Nuzzi and Carlo Maratta that adorn the hall of Palazzo Colonna in Rome, and again the canvas preserved in the Rouen museum and the similar ones in Palazzo Chigi in Ariccia, with the collaboration for the figurative parts of Filippo Lauri. The commercial and furnishing success of similar works is also testified by authors such as Guglielmo Cortese known as Borgognone (1628 - 1679), Franz Werner Von Tamm (1658 - 1724), Giovan Battista Gaulli (1639 - 1709), Giovanni Paolo Castelli known as Spadino (Rome 1650 - 1740) and the aforementioned Carlo Maratta (1625 - 1713) The work, studied by Giancarlo Sestieri, was brought closer to the sphere of the eclectic Pistoian painter Luigi Garzi, one of the protagonists of Roman painting in the decades of transition between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In our painting we can find the typical elements of his painting: the soft and delicately chiaroscuro light, the sculptural classicism of the figures as well as the stupendous luministic and chromatic effects. Luigi Garzi's training and artistic activity took place in the Eternal City and he was in effect a Roman artist. He moved to Rome from Pistoia, his hometown at a very young age, and joined the atelier of Andrea Sacchi, who directed his studies towards classicism, comparing himself with the works of Raphael, Domenichino and Nicolas Poussin, but also with the Emilian one. , with particular attention to the school of Guido Reni. But the Emilian examples were undoubtedly preceded, particularly by Giovani Lanfranco, who modeled his taste and style, together with a modulated cortonism, while those pre-eighteenth-century sensibilities are due to the lesson of Carlo Maratta. However, there is no doubt that the painter oriented his personality without ever bowing to imitation, reaching a refined elegance and autonomy of language, as the canvas in question clearly demonstrates in which the different influences find a refined amalgamation in perfect harmony with the baroque evolution between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, indicating a dating to its earliest maturity. These attitudes led the painter to obtain awards and prestigious commissions as soon as possible, such as the frescoes of Palazzo Borghese...Category
