About the Item
Jacques Muller (Utrecht 1630 - 1680)
Signed: 'J. Muller f(ecit).'
Pupil of Abraham van Cuylenborch (Utrecht, 1620 - 1658)
Diana and the nymphs bathing in a cave
Second half of the 17th century
Oil on panel (50 x 65 - Framed 67 x 83 cm)
In a charming cave, the chaste Diana accompanied by her faithful nymphs and her greyhound has retreated to regain her strength after a hunt. They are all gathered at the edge of a pool of water in the centre of the ravine, with the goddess intent on undressing ready for a cool bath.
The author has displayed an incredible inventive verve in recreating the fantastic details that enrich the composition, with a series of sculptures, ruins, friezes and architectural details in the classical style, including a warrior who seems to guard the entrance to the cave, a classical sculpture of an ancient Roman consul and a lion with an insignia placed on top of a large stone boulder.
The interior of this cave is thus a fragment of pure poetry, wrapped in a baroque context, offering us a strange but beautiful hymn to classical culture juxtaposed with feminine beauty.
The painting, which dates back to the second half of the 17th century, echoes the famous compositions of the Flemish painter Abraham van Cuylenborch (Utrecht, 1620 - 1658), and is certainly the work of one of his able followers. In particular, it is a work signed by the Flemish Jacques Muller (Utrecht 1630-c.1680), active in Utrecht around the middle of the 17th century and a pupil of Abraham van Cuylenburgh; from the master he inherited a singular figurative repertoire, with this type of depiction of caves studded with details from antiquity, ruins, classical sculptures and architectural fragments. Examples include
- Diana and her Nymphs in a Cave, Kremlin Museum, Russia
- Diana and Nymphs in a Cave, Nationalmuseum Stockholm
- Nymphs in a Cave with Ancient Ruins, Private Coll.
Jacques Muller was a very talented painter, although many of his unsigned works have in the past been wrongly attributed to the more famous master. What makes our work valuable is in fact the presence of the signature, which places it alongside two signed paintings, the first 'Battle between Turks and Christians' with the same signature - J. Muller f(ecit).' - of our painting is in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and 'Figures in Oriental Dress near Ancient Ruins' from a private collection.
The interiors of these caverns, where the scenery always alludes to the ruined state of the monuments, should be interpreted as a kind of 'vanitas', they are not only fascinating to look at but also subjects charged with strong moral value. The scenery is not only decorative and beautiful, but is intended to inspire the viewer to question deep religious and philosophical ideas, to meditate on death and resurrection, and on the ephemeral nature of life.

Episodes from the myth of Diana
oil painting on canvas
Dimensions: 84 x 114 cm.
with antique frame 100 x 132 cm.
The beautiful painting proposed shows a series of episodes taken from the myth of the divinity Diana, the Roman divinity of hunting, forests and wild animals, masterfully captured in this valuable painting, which shows a luxuriant wood, a favorite place of the divinity, as a theater of his adventures.
The composition opens, on the left, with a sort of presentation of the divinity, portrayed as an attractive young girl, surrounded by her faithful Nymphs, one of whom holds her quiver with arrows, and by one of her beloved dogs. hunting her.
The 'story' continues in the central part where we can see the divinity during a wild boar hunt...

Wooded landscape of the Roman countryside with the Archangel Raphael and Tobiolo
oil painting on canvas
second half of the 17th century
(cm.) 75 x 98, with frame 91 x 115
On the back old label inscribed "Monte dei Paschi di Siena"
The painting has characters clearly linked to the Roman culture of the seventeenth century and, in particular, to the works of Gaspard Dughet, an author who was able to achieve surprising results in describing the Lazio countryside with a unique grace and sensitivity.
Brother-in-law of Nicolas Poussin, of whom he was a pupil, Dughet is to be considered among the most important landscape painters of the Roman Baroque, highly sought after and celebrated by the aristocracy, a reference model for the artists of the following generation, such as Crescenzo Onofri, Jan Frans van Bloemen and Andrea Locatelli...

Landscape Zuccarelli Paint Oil on canvas Old master 18th Century Italian View

Landscape with river and resting shepherds
First half of the 18th century
oil painting on canvas
cm. 60 x 93, within a carved and gilded wooden frame cm. 75 x 108
This delightful landscape view animated by a family of shepherds who rest from their daily duties should be compared to the hand of Francesco Zuccarelli (Pitigliano 1702 - Florence 1788);
In the landscapes painted by Zuccarelli the world is crystallized, frozen in a moment of idyllic quiet,
where the 'Arcadian' sense of the landscape is rendered with that pictorial vivacity, chromatic lightness and compositional grace that we find in its entirety in his painting.
By way of comparison we can compare our canvas to other compositions, including:
- Landscape with river and resting shepherds, Accademia Carrara, Bergamo
- Landscape with bridge and horseman, Accademia Carrara, Bergamo
- Landscape with river, village, fisherman and shepherdesses' (Christie's, London May 1960,
- Landscape with figures, Accademia Carrara,
- Landscape with knight and figures, Accademia Carrara
Tuscan by origin, Francesco Zuccarelli trained first in Florence with the landscape architect Paolo Anesi...

Landscape See Paint Oil on canvas Flemish Old master 18th Century Italian Art
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
Flemish painter active in Italy in the eighteenth century
Coastal landscape of the Mediterranean with architectures and figures
Oil painting on canvas (69 x 88 cm., in frame 80 x 100 cm.)
The suggestive view proposed depicts a coastal view with a bay and the ruins of an ancient building, probably a monastery or a church, and in the background another building with a garden surrounded by high walls close to the shore.
The type of landscape, typical of the southern Italian environment, and the intimate atmosphere that welcomes the scene, attributes the authorship of the work to a landscape painter active in the eighteenth century, presumably in Italy in this period, with immediate references to the Dutch school , and in particular to the production of Jacob de Heusch and above all of Gaspar van Wittel, considered the progenitor of Italian landscape painting.
In fact, in the rendering of the architectural details, in the purity with which the buildings have been reconstructed, as well as in the atmosphere that encompasses the entire landscape, a marked correspondence to the so-called "Vanvitellian realism" can be seen: in fact, a comparison with a certain series of views which the Dutchman...
