About the Item

Jacob de Heush (Utrecht 1657 – Amsterdam 1701) Coastal landscape with architectural ruins Oil on canvas (80 x 102 cm - In frame 100 x 119 cm) Provenance: Hampel Munich, 22.09.2016 lot 969 (link) Expertise by Prof. Ferdinando Arisi The evocative landscape depicted here, which shows us the admirable blending of the Nordic and Italian landscape traditions, is a work attributable to the Dutch painter Jacob de Heush (Utrecht 1657 – Amsterdam 1701), one of the best vedutisti active in Rome at the end of the 17th century. It is emblematic of his painting style, with a coastal landscape embellished with classical architecture and the ruins of an ancient colonnade on the right, bringing it closer to the architectural capriccio genre. Jacob de Heusch moved to Rome from his native Utrecht in 1674, where he specialised in landscape painting, taking the works of Salvator Rosa as his model and skilfully combining the characteristics of the Dutch school, in particular the attention to realistic detail, with the more Italian imaginative and lyrical tradition of landscape representation. The resulting peaceful, idyllic mood became the hallmark of this artist, as we can clearly see in our painting. The figures are also typical, with some details appearing in other paintings by the artist, such as the woman with the child in the foreground, reminiscent of the woman riding a horse in the “Lazio Landscape” illustrated by Andrea Burisi Vici in his monograph on the artist (Rome, Bozzi, 1997, pp. 65, 121, cat. 22, ill. 39) and the man with his arms open not far from her, who can also be seen in the “Landscape with Waterfall” signed and dated 1693 (see, in the aforementioned volume, pp. 80, 81, 148, ill. 54, cat. 49). ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Good condition, complete with gilded frame (not antique). The work is sold complete with certificate of authenticity and descriptive iconographic card. We arrange and organise the transport of purchased works, both in Italy and abroad, through professional and insured carriers.

Landscape See Paint Oil on canvas Flemish Old master 18th Century Italian Art
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
Flemish painter active in Italy in the eighteenth century Coastal landscape of the Mediterranean with architectures and figures Oil painting on canvas (69 x 88 cm., in frame 80 x 100 cm.) The suggestive view proposed depicts a coastal view with a bay and the ruins of an ancient building, probably a monastery or a church, and in the background another building with a garden surrounded by high walls close to the shore. The type of landscape, typical of the southern Italian environment, and the intimate atmosphere that welcomes the scene, attributes the authorship of the work to a landscape painter active in the eighteenth century, presumably in Italy in this period, with immediate references to the Dutch school , and in particular to the production of Jacob de Heusch and above all of Gaspar van Wittel, considered the progenitor of Italian landscape painting. In fact, in the rendering of the architectural details, in the purity with which the buildings have been reconstructed, as well as in the atmosphere that encompasses the entire landscape, a marked correspondence to the so-called "Vanvitellian realism" can be seen: in fact, a comparison with a certain series of views which the Dutchman...

Landscape Zuccarelli Paint Oil on canvas Old master 18th Century Italian View
By Francesco Zuccarelli (Pitigliano 1702 - Florence 1788)
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
Francesco Zuccarelli (Pitigliano 1702 - Florence 1788), circle of Landscape with river and resting shepherds First half of the 18th century   oil painting on canvas cm. 60 x 93, within a carved and gilded wooden frame cm. 75 x 108 This delightful landscape view animated by a family of shepherds who rest from their daily duties should be compared to the hand of Francesco Zuccarelli (Pitigliano 1702 - Florence 1788); In the landscapes painted by Zuccarelli the world is crystallized, frozen in a moment of idyllic quiet, where the 'Arcadian' sense of the landscape is rendered with that pictorial vivacity, chromatic lightness and compositional grace that we find in its entirety in his painting. By way of comparison we can compare our canvas to other compositions, including: - Landscape with river and resting shepherds, Accademia Carrara, Bergamo - Landscape with bridge and horseman, Accademia Carrara, Bergamo - Landscape with river, village, fisherman and shepherdesses' (Christie's, London May 1960, - Landscape with figures, Accademia Carrara, - Landscape with knight and figures, Accademia Carrara Tuscan by origin, Francesco Zuccarelli trained first in Florence with the landscape architect Paolo Anesi...
