About the Item
17th century Dutch old master oil seascape, Stormy sea with boats including a Dutch Hoy and a Packet-Boat
The present painting is a peaceful, yet very lively, seascape and a beautiful example of the Dutch golden age seascapes. The longer one looks, the more one discovers; fishermen can be seen throwing out their nets in the foreground, whilst further in the background one can see a school of dolphins swimming in the sea just to the right of a Dutch Hoy.
Julius Porcellis was a distinguished Dutch Golden Age painter celebrated for his marine landscapes born in 1610 in Rotterdam. His father was the marine painter Jan Porcellis, both father and son shared the passion and talent for creating marine landscapes. They had a close bond and in his will, Jan included that Julius, would receive "all the paintings and works in the artist's possession at his death, to wit, those by the artist's hand and signed with his name, and no others". Throughout his oeuvre, Porcellis demonstrated a remarkable ability to convey mood and atmosphere through the subtle interplay of tonal colors. His later works exhibited a departure from the strict realism of his early period, employing softer tonal transitions to evoke the dynamic energy and vastness of the sea. This evolution allowed him to explore the nuances of light and shadow on water and clouds, imbuing his compositions with a sense of depth and drama. This new focus on the atmosphere of the sea, with the majority of the canvas displaying sea and sky, set the grounds for later works in this genre.

- Antique English 19th century marine sceneBy William AndersonLocated in Woodbury, CTOutstanding English late 18th / early 19th century marine scene by one of Britain's best known and sought after painters. William (or Wiliam) Anderson (1757 – 27 May 1837) was a Scottish artist specializing in maritime and patriotic themes. He was well-regarded for his detailed and accurate portraits of ships under sail, exhibiting his works annually in London between 1787 and 1811 and then occasionally until 1834. Anderson influenced other artists, notably John Ward and others of the Hull school. Anderson's early life is obscure, but he is known to have trained as a shipwright before moving to London to become a maritime painter when he was about 30. His training served him well as a painter, providing "a practical nautical knowledge" of his subjects. He earned a reputation for "accuracy and refinement of detail" and was admired for his bright, clear colours. He worked in both oils and watercolours. He based his style on that of well-known Dutch maritime...Category

- Moses Strikes the Water from the Rock. XVII cent. Dutch school.Located in Firenze, ITMoses Strikes Water from the Rock Dutch school, XVII century. Workshop of Jacob de Wet (Haarlem, 1610-1675). Technique: Oil on oak wood panel, composed of 3 horizontal panels. In this evocative work, Moses stands in a cave, gathering the Israelites. There was no water to drink or for their cattle.

Jacob de Wet’s workshop specializes in subjects from the Old and New Testaments. The recognizable rectangular format, simple compositions, and clear narratives define his style. The interplay of light and shadow, reminiscent of Rembrandt, adds timeless allure. The characters’ costumes, with their large hats and turbans...Category
