🧾 About the Artist: Adolf Jossifowitsch Charlemagne (1826–1901)
Adolf Jossifowitsch Charlemagne was a celebrated Russian artist, honored with the prestigious title Artist of His Imperial Majesty Alexander II. His works have been featured in the Tretyakov Gallery, and reside in the State Russian Museum, the Pushkin Museum, and other major collections.
Born in St. Petersburg, he was the younger brother of artist Josef Josefovich Charlemagne and came from a noted Franco-Russian artistic lineage. He studied at the Imperial Academy of Arts from 1848, where he trained under Feodor Bruni (historical painting) and Bogdan Villevalde (battle painting). During his studies, he was awarded several silver and gold medals.
In 1855, Charlemagne received a prestigious travel stipend and studied in Munich with battle painter Alexander Kotzebue, then in Paris, before returning to Russia in 1861. He was named Academician for his series on General Suvorov and later painted a famous image of Catherine the Great in Falconet’s workshop—acquired by Empress Maria Alexandrovna, earning him the title of Professor in 1867.
From the 1870s, he also designed official securities and bonds for the Imperial government and created many widely published historical illustrations. His artistic career reflects both imperial prestige and public influence, and his surviving works are rare collector’s items.

Dutch Artist Hendrick Hulk (1842-1937) Antique oil painting on canvas, Landscape
Located in Palm Coast, FL
This is a lovely antique original oil painting on canvas depicting a classic Dutch rural landscape, highlighting an idyllic country scene that is both tranquil and picturesque. It features a central dirt path leading towards the horizon, flanked by lush greenery and a variety of trees under a softly lit sky, suggesting a late afternoon setting. On the path, two figures can be seen in the distance.
To the right, a charming thatched cottage, partially obscured by foliage, anchors the composition, giving a glimpse into rural life.
The ornate golden frame complements the artwork, adding an element of elegance and emphasizing the traditional value of such a scene in Dutch landscape painting. This type of artwork is typical of the Dutch Golden Age style, where landscapes were celebrated for their beauty and as reflections of national pride. The painting not only portrays the beauty of the Dutch countryside but also evokes a sense of nostalgia for a simpler, pastoral life.
Houses in a gilded ornate frame. The painting has some craquelures, dirty areas. Please see photos.
