About the Item

Two putti with symbols of war and victory (cannons, cannonballs, armour, anchor, lion's head, laurel branch/ olive branch, flag, staff with helmet) in pediment triangle. Probably a design for a painting or architecture Pen-and-ink drawing in black on brownish paper, black wash Plain gold moulding with UV glass Allegory of Victory, 18th Century, Old Master Drawing, By De Wit, Figurative Jacob de Wit was an important painter, graphic artist and publisher of the Dutch late Baroque. He was influenced by Peter Paul Rubens' works after a stay in Antwerp. In Amsterdam he made a name for himself far beyond the country's borders with works of art for interior decoration: he created virtuoso plafond paintings, wallpapers, wall coverings, supraports and fireplace pieces. Jacob de Wit earned greatest fame with his grisailles. These, often showing putti or cupids, imitate the aesthetics of bas-reliefs and are mischievously called "witjes" by the artist himself.
