About the Item

Antonio Tibaldi (Rome, c. 1635 - post 1675) Workshop of Still Life with Armour, Curtains and Sculpture Oil on canvas 53 x 77 cm. - in frame 65 x 89 cm. Beautifully scenic painting depicting a still life composed of an opulent display of objects, including several fine curtains embroidered and trimmed with gold trimmings and fringes, parts of a dark parade armour with gold borders, sculptures, an altar adorned with winged sphinxes and precious chiselled metal vases. These images, in addition to the aesthetics of the decoration, are imbued with allegorical meanings, so much so that these compositions can be interpreted as refined Vanitas: in fact, they are a kind of allegory that probably invited the observer to meditate on the futility of vain glory (which here is symbolised by the weapons or the altar) or earthly riches (the precious objects and fabrics). The pictorial characters declare its execution by a capable 17th century painter of the Italian school, whose characters evoke the teachings of the best Flemish masters of previous generations. The evident Roman post-Caravaggesque influences are evident in the contrasts of light and the dense pictorial material, all of which allow the painting to be attributed to the circle of Antonio Tibaldi (Rome, c. 1635 - post 1675), a skilful painter and follower of Francesco Fieravino known as the Maltese and therefore a highly regarded painter of still lifes similar to those of his master. Active mainly in Rome, the painter was extremely prolific and enjoyed extraordinary success with the collectors of the time. His presence and the notoriety he achieved are testified by the many compositions that have been returned to him in recent times, kept in the most important public and private Roman collections of the time, such as those of the Albani, Barberini, Chigi and Colonna families. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: The painting is sold complete with a pleasant wooden frame and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and descriptive iconographic card.

Knight Van Douw Paint Oil on canvas Old master 17/18th Century Flemish Art Italy
By Simon Johannes van Douw (Antwerp c. 1630 - c. 1677)
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
After Simon Johannes van Douw (Antwerp c. 1630 - c. 1677) The stop of a traveler on horseback near a post station Oil painting on canvas 45 x 55 cm In frame cm. 55 x 65 In this pleasant painting, depicting a knight parked near a post station, the Flemish tradition is based on a strong Italianizing sensitivity, especially by observing the setting and its peculiar brightness. The mixture of genres and the particular style of execution make it easy to trace the authorship back to a Nordic author but active in Rome, or strongly influenced by the style in vogue in the Eternal city, between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries: we are referring, in in particular, to a follower of the Antwerp Simon Johannes van Douw. The chromatic elegance and refinement with which he outlines the figures are typical aspects of his painting. The scene takes place outside a cottage, probably a post office for travelers, where a modest family divides the tasks by assisting the knights. We see a young boy who hands water to the horse before he sets off again, the father is preparing to feed him with straw and the mother who instead takes care of the little son. The Italian reminiscences, evident in our painting, have been absorbed by many Northern European authors such as Nicolaes Berchem, Philips Wouwerman or Johannes Lingelbach, all inspired by the leader Pieter van Laer...
