  • Moonlight Scene with Fishermen
    Located in London, GB
    Oil on canvas Image size: 23 1/2 x 18 1/2 inches (60 x 47 cm) Original frame This moonlit view features many of the usual features of Sebastian Pether's work: a painterly river, mountain scenery and the incorporation of classical gothic ruins in an attractive though artificial style. The ruins in the foreground and city in the background have been painstakingly depicted in meticulous detail. On the bank in the foreground, and out on the river itself, we see three night fishermen silhouetted against the calm waters. The artist has cleverly balanced the light emanating from the moon, and the reflection of this light glistening on the river surface below, to create the mysterious atmosphere of the moonlit evening. Indeed, he has skilfully employed the strong use of chiaroscuro effects of light and shade in this painting so that the eye is drawn to the full moon as it illuminates the sky. It is undeniably a work of Romanticism, a style that was popular around the beginning of the nineteenth century. The Artist Sebastian Pether was an English landscape-painter. He was the eldest son of Abraham Pether...

  • Artist Horemans Paint Oil on canvas Old master 18th Century Flemish Painter Art
    By Jan Josef Horemans the Elder (Antwerp 1682-1752)
    Located in Riva del Garda, IT
    Jan Josef Horemans the Elder (Antwerp 1682-1752) circle of In the artist's atelier Oil painting on canvas - 48 x 45 cm, framed 61 x 56 cm. The pleasant painting illustrates one of the favorite themes of Flemish art collectors between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and precisely opens the doors of an art workshop / laboratory, illustrating the working environment of a group of troublemakers sculptors. What makes the composition fascinating is the real atmosphere, not artificial and also messy, such as to identify us in the context of the artists of the time. We see a couple of young clients, easily identifiable as two travelers on the Grand Tour (the globe on the right could allude to their journey), who have come to the atelier to see the bust that the gentleman is getting molded, as a perfect 'souvenir' from return home once the trip is over. And still other artists, perhaps apprentices, are practicing drawing, busy with bringing the details of a sculpture on their albums. Finally, a last character while viewing a large wall painting...
