French school 19th romantic Historical scene Duke GUISE DURANTI Oil Sketch

1820-1859

About the Item

19th century French school Oil on canvas 33 x 41 cm (53 x 45 cm with the frame) Original canvas with the stamp of the merchant "Vallé & Bourniche / Successeurs de Bellot" active in Paris between 1825 and 1841 This work was painted between 1825 and 1841 as the stamp of the canvas merchant indicates (he was active in Paris at this period of time). The subject is probably the death of President Duranti. After the assassination of the Duke of Guise, the leaguers attacked the king's supporters. In Toulouse at the beginning of 1589, they sought for President Jean-Etienne Duranti, first president of the parliament of Toulouse from 1581 to 1589. On February 10, 1589, he was dragged out of the Dominican convent where he had taken refuge. Duranti appeared in front of his opponents in his official clothes and gave a speech to explain his point of view. But he was assassinated by the armed mob.

  • View of the Bergsee - Oil on Canvas by Josef Brunner - Mid 19th Century
    By Josef Brunner
    Located in Roma, IT
    View of the Bergsee is an original modern artwork realized by the Austrian artist and painter Josef Brunner in the middle of the XIX Century. Original Oil painting on Canvas cm. 72 x 3 x 102 (canvas). A beautiful original XIX Century decorated frame is included (total dimensions: 100 x 5 x 130). Both the work and the canvas are in very good conditions. Beautiful and intense oil painting depicting the Austrian mountain lake Bergsee. The painting is characterized by a particular play between lights and shadows: the light indeed is distributed in an extremely suffused but homogeneous way on the view but it is also able to create that sense of magic that characterized the whole landscape. The color of the lake therefore assumes a transparency and an iridescent blue that tends to the green and reflects the color of the surrounding mountains. The sky appears full of rainy clouds but they still allow the rays of the last sun to shine on. The general vision conveys calm and tranquility thanks also to the refined use of color and the play of lights and shadows, the turquoise and the pale opaque blue of the lake is perfectly emphasized by the various green tones of the trees. The white, gray and light brown rocky mountains embrace the lake and the cloudy sky in shades of blue increases the feeling of tranquility. The landscape is desolate; the only signs of life are the three fishermen on the shore: they are three small figures painted in different poses and illuminated by the light too. The surface of the water reflects in a spectacular way the surrounding landscape, it is similar to the surface of a mirror. The style, fantastic and almost dreamy, is into the full Germanic Romanticism. Mindful of Caspar David Friedrich's memoirs (Greifswald, 1774 - Dresda, 1840), the author certainly took his cue from the style of the German and the Austrian Romanticism; tangible signs of Romantic painting are the choice of the subject, an uncontaminated Nordic landscape, and the almost fairytale atmosphere that we find in the composition. This wonderful Romantic painting was created by the Austrian artist Josef Brunner (Wien, 1826 - Wien, 1893). Joseph Brunner was the son of Joseph...
