Still Life Animals Fruit De Gryef Signed Paint 17th Century Oil on canvad Art

1680-1720

About the Item

Adriaen de Gryef (Leiden 1657 - Brussels 1722) Signed ‘A Gryeff f’(ecit) - centre left Peasant in the courtyard with still life of animals and fruit Oil on canvas Dimensions (cm): 45 x 60 In antique frame 74 x 88 Work published in the RDK (Netherlands Institute for Art History) A peasant immortalised in the courtyard of his farmhouse, playing a flute while leading the goats back to the farm; around him a rich still life piece with freshly harvested vegetables, some placed on a cart, two pheasants hanging and ready to be cooked and various scattered kitchen objects. The painting is signed, on a barrel in the lower left-hand corner, by the well-priced Flemish painter Adriaen De Gryeff, active as a picture dealer in Ghent and Antwerp in 1687, a member of the artists' guild in 1699 and then in Brussels, famous for this type of scene related to the Flemish seventeenth-century rural countryside. The work is published in the RKD archive, together with others by the author, the comparison with which is easy to identify the common features of his production. In fact, there are many works that resemble our composition, although each one is different. The subject matter is more typical of de Gryeff, who specialised in small paintings with picturesque subjects often depicting animals in the open air, often set in rural landscapes; the painter shows us here his technical mastery and daring facility in the depiction of animals, but also his skill as a naturamortist. These works were habitually collected by royalty and aristocrats, who loved to decorate their country houses. Even today they can be found in many illustrious collections, such as Schloss Schleissheim (Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen), the Kunstmuseum in Basel, the Musée des Beaux Arts in Marseille and the Royal Museums in Brussels. Other good examples in museum collections are Grijef's works in the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge and the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: The work sold is completed by a gilt frame showing signs of restoration and comes with a certificate of authenticity and guarantee. We take care of and organise the transport of the purchased works, both for Italy and abroad, through professional and insured carriers. It is also possible to see the painting in the gallery in Riva del Garda, we will be happy to welcome you to show you our collection of works.

Galante Scene Vermeer d'Utrecht Paint Oil on canvas 18th Century Flemish Old Art
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
Flemish painter of the 18th century - Follower of Jan van der Meer, called Vermeer d'Utrecht (Schoonhoven, verses 1630 - 1692) Courtship scene at the entrance of an inn oil on canvas, 70 x 62 cm. (with frame 80 x 72 cm.) This pleasant genre scene, depicting a young innkeeper conversing amiably with a gentleman as she prepares to serve him wine in a glass goblet that she still holds in her hand, is inspired by the painting made in 1653 by the Dutch painter Jan van der Meer, known as Vermeer d'Utrecht, and today kept in Paris at the Louvre Museum. Set outside an inn or a post station, the scene illustrates the theme of seduction, with the young waitress being courted by the client, a charming traveler with a changing red cloak, who tries to charm her. Yes, it is a work that harmoniously combines the painter's Dutch origins, with the stylistic characters learned during his training in his homeland, with the Italian-like characters learned during his trip to Italy around 1655. In Rome, in particular, he met and collaborated with various authors of the Bamboccianti school, first of all Jan Miel...
