Unidentified Artist, Neapolitan School, 17th Century
"Musicians"

This evocative 17th-century painting, attributed to the Neapolitan School, captures the spirit of baroque realism with a dynamic portrayal of two rustic musicians. The work exemplifies the lively and dramatic use of chiaroscuro characteristic of the period, bringing depth and immediacy to the figures.
The composition features a weathered bagpipe player, his expression focused and intent, alongside a youthful lute player whose impassioned singing conveys a sense of revelry. The artist masterfully renders the contrasting textures of their garments, the gleam of the instruments, and the rich tonal variations of the background.
With its dramatic lighting and expressive subjects, this piece embodies the artistic influences of Caravaggio and his Neapolitan followers, who sought to depict everyday life with heightened emotional intensity. The warm, earthy palette and naturalistic detail make this a remarkable example of Southern Italian baroque painting.
Housed in an ornate period-style frame, this work is in excellent condition, retaining its vibrant colors and historical authenticity. A compelling addition to any collection of Old Masters, this painting offers both aesthetic and investment value.

Unidentified Artist
17th-Century Tavern Scene
Oil on canvas
Framed: 113 x 103 cm Canvas: 96 x 91 cm
This 17th-century oil painting captures a lively tavern scene, a popular subject in Dutch and Flemish genre painting of the Golden Age. The composition is rich in character and storytelling, depicting a group of men engaged in a card game, with coins, letters, and drinks scattered across the table. A standing woman, possibly a barmaid or concerned onlooker, leans in, while a man enters from the left, holding his hat and appearing amused by the game. In the foreground, a small child tends to a jug and tankard, adding a touch of humor and domestic realism.
Executed in oil on canvas, the painting showcases earthy, warm tones and rich chiaroscuro, emphasizing the candlelit glow of the scene. The artist masterfully captures the textures of fabrics, wood, and metal, giving depth and dimension to the environment. The expressive faces and animated gestures highlight the social interactions typical of Dutch and Flemish tavern paintings...
