Prospectus Magni Canalis Venetianum By Stefan Bleekrode

2021-22

About the Item

Stefan Bleekrode b.1986 Dutch Prospectus Magni Canalis Venetianum (View of the Great Venetian Canal) Black ink and watercolor on paper Signed and dated "S. Bleekrode '21-'22" (upper left); Titled "Prospectus Magni Canalis Venetianum" (lower right) This impressive composition of the great sites of Venice was created by the celebrated Dutch artist Stefan Bleekrode. The work takes a bird's-eye view, giving it a unique perspective of Venice's famed structures and winding canals. Historic buildings line the Grand Canal and extend into the distance in a dizzying maze of architecture. Executed with an extraordinary level of detail, the work reveals Bleekrode's mastery of perspective and light as he deftly captures in perfect detail the character of this beloved city. The Dutch artist was born in 1986 and only recently pursued a full-time career as an artist. As a child around the age of 10, Bleekrode began his pursuit of perfecting the cityscape, creating birds-eye perspective drawings of architecture in pencil. In 2002, he traded pencil for ink, and around that same time fell under the influence of the works of American artist Edward Hopper. Hopper's desolate and thought-provoking artworks inspired Bleekrode's first full-scale cityscape. Shortly thereafter, he quickly gained renown for the exceptional level of detail and fascinating perspective imparted in his works.

  • Concours de Chiens au Promenade by Otto Eerelman
    By Otto Eerelman
    Located in New Orleans, LA
    Otto Eerelman 1839-1926 Dutch Concours de Chiens au Promenade Watercolor on paper Signed “O. Eerelman 1904” (lower left) A tour de force watercolor by celebrated Dutch artist Otto Eerelman, one of 19th-century Europe's most popular and important animal portraitists, this charming composition captures a bustling cross-section of fashionable elites walking their equally fashionable canine companions. Eerleman takes care to render the detailed attire of his subjects, complete with plumed hats and layers of lace trim. The artist paints the plethora of pets in equally painstaking detail, capturing the nuances of each different breed represented. Eerelman mastered the art of depicting not only the dogs’ physical characteristics but also their unique expressions and personalities. His wealthy clientele would bring their pets to his home in The Hague where they would live for a period of time while having their portraits done, allowing for a remarkably true-to-life portrayal. This energetic watercolor, with its profusion of color and texture, harnesses the affluence of its subjects and the leisurely whimsy of their luxurious lives. Hailing from Groningen, Netherlands, Eerelman was dubbed the “Northern Rembrandt” during his lifetime. He received his artistic training at the Academy Minerva in Groningen, the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp and then private lessons in the studio of the great Lawrence Alma Tadema. He successfully captured the attention of the Dutch court, particularly Princess Wilhelmina...

  • La Place de la Concorde, Paris by H. Claude Pissarro
    By Hughes Claude Pissarro
    Located in New Orleans, LA
    Hugues Claude Pissarro b.1935 French La Place de la Concorde, Paris Signed “H. Claude Pissarro” (lower right)Pastel on card The architectural beauty of La Place de la Concorde is captured in all of its glory in this resplendent Parisian cityscape by Hugues Claude Pissarro. The celebrated artist renders the site's notable landmarks in detail along with pedestrians in brightly-hued attire, showcasing his deft skill and signature vibrance in the pastel medium. Pissarro captures the detailed edifices in the distance and the sculptural beauty of the square's fountain, using speckled swathes of lavender and orange to render the light of the afternoon sun reflecting from the cobblestone streets. Hailing from a long lineage of artists, including Impressionist Camille Pissarro, Pissarro's artistic talents were cultivated at an early age. He exhibited his first works at the young age of 14 and later studied in Paris at the École du Louvre and École Normale Supérieure. A 1959 White House commission to paint the portrait of President...
