About the Item

The Knight is an original painting realized by Pietro della Vecchia during the XVII century. Oil on board. Original title: Ritratto di giovane cavaliere con cappello piumato. Includes the contemporary frame Salvator Rosa with three orders of carving. The boy in the painting is the same model as that of the painting Giovinezza e vecchiaia (private collection). Pietro della Vecchia (Venice, 1603 – Vicenza, 1678) studied with Alessandro Varotari (Il Padovanino), from whom he inherited the interest in Venetian paintings of the sixteenth century, in particular, those of Titian and Giorgione. Recognized for his skills used to reproduce the style of the masters of the sixteenth century, he is also well-known as a painter of genre scenes and portraits. As an official painter of the Republic of Venice, he was commissioned to produce the cardboards of the mosaics for the Basilica of San Marco. When the artist died in 1678, he was buried in San Canciano church in Venice.

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...
