About the Item
Italian School 18th Century
An Ancient soldier in profile,
red chalk on paper
35 x 23.5 cm
in good condition, traces of folds in the lower right corner
Framed : 46.5 x 35.5 cm
This portrait of an ancient soldier is particularly striking for its modernity, it stands out for a very particular style that I have not yet identified.
It is drawn in sanguine on a beautiful old paper. Its watermark allows to date it from the 18th century approximately.
Also the style and the execution evoke the Italian school of this period. Perhaps it is a study for a fresco or a mural of this type.

- 18th Century Sanguine Drawing, La Naissance de Louis XIII, After Rubens.Located in Cotignac, FR18th Century French Sanguine drawing, possibly a preparatory sketch for the painting by Nattier after the painting by Rubens. Presented in shaped 'marie-louise' mount in plain gold wood frame with collection label. The subject is the Queen Marie de' Medici seated on a grand throne, the baby is in the arms of Health while Justice looks over him. Fecundity brings a cornucopia of fruit with the heads of the other children the Queen will bear. The Sun rides his chariot across the sky to indicate that Louis XIII was born in the morning and the calm figure of France surveys the whole scene. An engraving exists (see the Wellcome Collection) of this same image: 'The birth of King Louis XIII', after the engraving by B. Audran the younger after the painting by Jean-Marc Nattier after the oil painting of Peter Paul Rubens in the Louvre 'La Naissance du Dauphin (future Louis XIII) à Fontainebleau, le 27 septembre 1601'. Jean-Marc Nattier (17 March 1685 – 7 November 1766) was a French painter. He was born in Paris, the second son of Marc Nattier (1642–1705), a portrait painter, and of Marie Courtois (1655–1703), a miniaturist. He is noted for his portraits of the ladies of King Louis XV's court in classical mythological attire. He received his first instruction from his father, and from his uncle, the history painter Jean Jouvenet (1644–1717). He enrolled in the Royal Academy in 1703 and applied himself to copying pictures in the Luxembourg Palace, making a series of drawings of the Marie de Médici painting...Category
