About the Item

This painting by Gustaf Brandelius, a 19th-century Swedish artist, evokes the pastoral tranquility and rural life of the era. Brandelius was not only a painter but also served in the military, rising to the rank of captain before his resignation. The scene depicted is serene and typical of his genre works, showcasing his skill in animal motifs, which sometimes extend into landscape painting. In this particular piece, we observe a young woman tending to a cow, with a rural backdrop suggesting a farmstead or village life. The vivid colors and dynamic brushwork reflect Brandelius's talent for imbuing his subjects with a sense of character and humor. His works are well-regarded for their spirited execution and robust color palette. Educated at the Royal Swedish Academy of Arts, Brandelius furthered his studies in Düsseldorf under Carl d'Unker and in Paris. His accomplishments in the art world were recognized with several honors, including being made an agré of the Royal Swedish Academy of Arts in 1864 and later a member and court painter in 1874. Brandelius's work was internationally recognized, represented at the 1876 art exhibition in Philadelphia with the painting "Adventure on a Walk." Posthumously, a commemorative exhibition in Stockholm in 1888 celebrated his contributions to art. Today, his works are held in prestigious collections, including those of Uppsala University Library, Västergötlands Museum, Gothenburg Museum of Art, Norrköping's Art Museum, and the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm. info: oil on canvas signed G.Brandelius dated on the canvas stretcher 1862 unframed 9.45 x 12.6 inches (24 x 32 cm) framed 13.78 x 16.93 inches (35 x 43 cm) Provenance: A Swedish private collection.

A Young Woman With Her Dog by Victor Ravet
Located in Stockholm, SE
In this exquisite painting by Victor Ravet, we are transported to an elegant interior setting reminiscent of the grandeur of high-class homes. The focal point is a woman adorned in a shimmering pink gown, radiating grace and sophistication. Bathed in gentle light, her dress catches the glimmer, accentuating her beauty. She holds a treat for a dog in her hand, enticing the furry companion who stands on its hind legs in eager anticipation. The canine's eyes fixated on the delicious morsel, capturing a moment of playful interaction between the woman and her loyal companion. The scene takes on a narrative quality as the young woman's other hand delicately lifts a curtain, hinting at another room beyond. This subtle gesture adds depth to the composition, suggesting a world of hidden secrets and intriguing possibilities within the opulent surroundings. Victor Ravet took inspiration from the Dutch Golden Age painters of the 17th century, such as Vermeer, Jacob Ochtervelt, and Gerrit Dou. This homage to their style and subject matter pays tribute to the timeless allure of domestic scenes, capturing a slice of life in a bygone era. With meticulous attention to detail, Ravet masterfully recreates the textures and fabrics, immersing the viewer in the sumptuousness of the period. The soft play...
