About the Item

Étienne Jeaurat (Vermenton 1699 - Versailles 1789) Game of children intent on harvesting grain (Allegory of Summer) Mid-18th century Oil on canvas 97 x 129 cm - Framed cm. 112 x 145 We present here a splendid painting, traditionally attributed to the French painter Étienne Jeaurat (Vermenton 1699 - Versailles 1789), depicting a jubilation of children. The canons of the Rococo period are present here, the most delicate, light and at the same time elegant of styles, capable of interpreting in painting the peculiarities of French society of the Ancien Régime. Baroque painting with its exuberance, massive, rational forms, could not represent the aristocracy, which instead saw in luminosity, decorativism, grace and idyll a more prestigious and representative language. The composition is, to be precise, taken from a painting by Boucher, painted around 1730 and now housed in the Museum of Fine Art in Huston, which depicts a joyful group of cupids playfully engaged in the harvesting of wheat. Prevalent in our canvas is the feeling of gracefulness, emphasised by the graceful poses of the children and the use of the palette, where the colours are light and luminous, enhancing the beautiful play of chiaroscuro, typical of painters of this period. Jeaurat also devoted himself to this type of subject, symbol par excellence of the frivolous pleasures of life to which the aristocratic class yearned, certainly aware of the highly appreciated work of the contemporary Francois Boucher. The work is in good condition, complemented by a beautiful lacquered and gilded wooden frame with leaf-carved corners. Étienne Jeaurat (Vermenton 1699 - Versailles 1789) - Pupil of Nicolas Vleughels, friend of Antoine Watteau, in 1724 the painter stayed in Rome and returned to Paris, and in 1733 he was registered at the Royal Academy. In 1737, he exhibited for the first time at the Salon des Artistes in the Louvre where he continued to show his work regularly until 1789, was then elevated to professor and later chancellor in 1781. Returning to the work presented here, a similar composition, but of slightly larger dimensions, is in the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, dated 1744. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: The work is sold with a certificate of authenticity in accordance with the law. We take care of and organise the transport of the purchased works, both for Italy and abroad, through professional and insured carriers.

Landscape Zuccarelli Paint Oil on canvas Old master 18th Century Italian View
By Francesco Zuccarelli (Pitigliano 1702 - Florence 1788)
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
Francesco Zuccarelli (Pitigliano 1702 - Florence 1788), circle of 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...

Dughet Woodland Landscape Old master Paint Oil on canvas 17th Century Italy Art
By Gaspard Dughet, called Gaspard Poussin (Rome 1615 - 1675)
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
Gaspard Dughet, called Gaspard Poussin (Rome 1615 - 1675) - attributable to 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...
