Mid 19th Century "Susanna And The Elders" After The Old Master by Martinelli

Circa 1850

About the Item

Outstanding Mid 19th century old master "Susanna and the Elders" after Martinelli Brilliant old master painting of Susanna and the Elders. Original oil on canvas. Dimensions 26.5" wide x 36" high. No visible signature. The artist remains a mystery. The canvas has been relined and restretched. The painting comes unframed and will look wonderful displayed as is, or with a new frame. As the story goes, a fair Hebrew wife named Susanna was falsely accused by lecherous voyeurs. As she bathes in her garden, having sent her attendants away, two lustful elders secretly observe the lovely Susanna. When she makes her way back to her house, they accost her, threatening to claim that she was meeting a young man in the garden unless she agrees to satisfy their desires.

  • William Newcombe Mid Century Abstract Nude
    By William John Bertram Newcombe
    Located in San Francisco, CA
    William John Bertram Newcombe: 1907-1969. Listed Canadian and British artist known for Abstraction. He has had auction results over $4000. This wonderful nude looks so much better in person as glass is very reflective making it difficult to capture an accurate picture. It is in very good condition! It is either mixed media or watercolor on paper. It measures approximately 29 inches high by 18 1/2 wide but is matted so could be larger. The frame measures 36 1/4 by 25 1/4. This piece was part of the Vincent Price collection...
