16th Century Venetian SchoolThe Holy Family, 16th Century Venetian School, Oil on Canvas, Hand Carved Frame
About the Item
Oil on canvas
Image size: 26 x 37 inches (66 x 94 cm)
Period hand carved gilt frame
The pictorial arrangement of the Holy Family, with various saints in a landscape, was very popular in sixteenth-century Venice, following the prototype of Giovanni Bellini. Possibly intended for private devotion, this picture is a representative example of the compositional type known as the sacra conversazione (literally ‘holy conversation’) showing the Virgin and Child with Saint Joseph engaged in a tender exchange.
This artist has placed his figures close to the picture plane within a verdant setting that opens towards a luminous and atmospheric landscape. This arrangement creates a contrast between the peace and tranquility of nature and the sacred importance of the characters represented. The use of a palette of soft and warm tones contributes to the serene atmosphere of the work. The earthy tones and subtle greens of the landscape are complemented by the soft colors of the vestments of the Sagrada Família, creating a visual harmony that invites contemplation.

- London Costmongers, Urban 20th Century English OilLocated in London, GBAttributed to Mary Adshead 1904 - 1995 London Costmongers Oil on canvas Image size: 30 x 36 inches Framed Costermongers were London people that sold fruit and veg and other ‘perishables’ from barrows. Often wheeling and then stationing their barrow on the street, so their customers could easily come and buy from them. Costermongers were fiercely independent, rebellious in their dress and outlook, and had little time for ‘middle class moralising’ and attempts to suppress or restrict their way of life. (Much like modern teenagers) The men depicted stop work for a break with cups of tea and a few read the newspapers. Next to the man with the yellow apron can be seen some cakes on a plate. A work place , a factory can be seen in the distance on the right. It is possible that the painting depicts a cabmen's shelter, as some did serve outside and many still survive today in London. The style of the painting is very much that of a student of the Slade School in London and has similarities with other artists work such as James Batemen or Herbert Ashwin Budd. On the back of the painting it has in chalk the name 'Rhoades', which could refer to the artist Geoffrey Hamilton Rhoades...Category
