Oil on panel Signed and dated lower left: "Ferdinand de Braekeleer, 1868, Antwerp." This depiction of a classroom clearly shows the typical style of De Braekeleer. One can read the painting as one reads a story. The viewer's gaze can wander about, analyzing all the different characters and their activities. There is a sort of humor to the scene, with a psychological characterization of the different characters. On the left side of the classroom, we can see several students working diligently. While another one has thrown his writing slate to the ground, he seems to have given up. In the center of the painting, we can see the older school teacher, explaining carefully to three of his students how the problems should be solved. In this work we can also see how De Braekeleer follows the composition schemes that were common in the seventeenth century. Think for instance of ‘little schools’ attributed to Adriaan Brouwer, Adriaan van Ostade or Jan Steen. Ferdinand de Braekeleer was a Flemish painter well known for his genre scenes and emerges from this painting as an excellent craftsman. The high quality of his works revived Belgian painting and his role as a teacher of the next generation of artists was significant. He taught at the Antwerp Academy from 1855 onwards, and had artists like Charles Venneman...

Vittorio Reggianini (Italian, 1858-1938) Il Concerto di Pianoforte Signed Lower Right 28 x 39.5 inches 35 x 47 inches with frame Vittorio Reggianini specialized in genre subjects including elegant scenes of bourgeois life, figure compositions particularly women's heads and child studies as well as more humble interiors with peasants. Reggianini combined fantasy with reality, sensuality with sensibility and above all, like many of the Florentine historical genre painters furnished his costume pieces in luxury. Reggianini was born in Modena, north Italy, in 1853. He studied at the Modena Academy of Fine Arts where he later became a professor. Like many of his contemporaries, Reggianini migrated south, to Florence, where in 1900 he participated in the Alinari Corcorso with a painting entitled Tristis Matris Nati Presaga Finis. Reggianini also exhibited with the Florentine Art...
