About the Item
17th century Flemish old master painting depicting a peaceful countryside scenery by Lucas Van Uden
Lucas Van Uden's life unfolded against the backdrop of the rich artistic tapestry of the Dutch Golden Age. Born in Antwerp in 1595, Van Uden displayed an early aptitude for art, which led him to apprentice under the esteemed landscape painter Adam van Noort. Under Noort's guidance, Van Uden honed his skills and developed a keen eye for capturing the nuances of nature. Upon completing his apprenticeship, Van Uden embarked on a journey to further his artistic education, traveling throughout Europe to study the works of master painters. He drew inspiration from the breathtaking landscapes of Italy, the dramatic seascapes of the Netherlands, and the verdant countryside of his native Belgium.
Returning to Antwerp, Van Uden established his own studio and quickly gained recognition for his meticulously crafted landscapes. His paintings, characterized by their harmonious compositions and meticulous attention to detail, soon caught the eye of wealthy patrons and collectors across Europe. Van Uden's career flourished during a time of great artistic innovation and cultural flourishing in the Low Countries. He was deeply influenced by the works of his contemporaries, including Peter Paul Rubens and Jan Brueghel the Elder, with whom he often collaborated on collaborative projects.
In addition to his artistic pursuits, Van Uden was actively involved in the artistic community of Antwerp, serving as a mentor to aspiring painters and participating in the city's vibrant cultural life. His studio became a hub of artistic activity, attracting students and admirers from far and wide. Throughout his prolific career, Van Uden continued to refine his technique and explore new artistic possibilities. His landscapes evolved from early pastoral scenes to grand panoramic vistas, reflecting his growing mastery of the genre. His ability to capture the subtle interplay of light and shadow, the texture of foliage, and the atmospheric effects of weather set him apart as a true master of landscape painting.

17th century Flemish Italian Old Master - The baptism of Christ - Religious
Located in Antwerp, BE
17th century Flemish old Master painting
The present painting is truly a little jewel with its vibrant colours and skilful brushwork. It depicts the Baptism of Christ, a depiction of a tale filled with hope and positivity, it is a very fine example of Malo's talent.
We would like to thank Anna Orlando for her assistance in cataloguing this painting. A copy of her entry on this painting will be given to the buyer.
She writes about the present painting: The painting illustrated here, unpublished, refers to Vincenzo (Vincent) Malò, a Flemish artist active in Italy and in particular in Genoa in the first half of the seventeenth century, by now well known. The critics who started studying him in the sixties of the last century recognized the initial confusion of our painter with Vincenzo Alemanno (1595-1675); many documents subsequently traced both in the Genoese and Roman archives have partially specified his biographical details, but certainly his identity. Son of a certain Nicola, Vincent trained in Antwerp with David Teniers the Elder and then with Rubens, he was intermittently enrolled in the painters' guild, between 1623 and 1634. It is unlikely that he first arrived in Genoa in 1625 , when the city was at war against the Savoys, and it is entirely probable that his stay in Italy fell between 1634 and the year of his death, documented in Rome in 1644. It were about ten fertile years, also thanks to the lessons from Rubens who had taught him to paint speedily...

Large 17th century religious family painting - Mary with Christ and Anna
Located in Antwerp, BE
17th century Old Master painting depicting the Infant Christ with Mary and St. Anne attributed to Nicolas de Liemaker
The artist of the present work wonderfully captured the loving gaze of Maria, looking in awe at her child. One can sense the tenderness and love in her eyes. The eyes of Christ appears to be filled with wisdom and love and a finely painted aura crowns his and his mother's heads. St. Anne, Mary's mother, gently holds the infant whilst gazing adoringly at him. The painting is not only a beautiful depiction of Christ and his mother and grandmother, but also a sweet image of the tender bond between a mother's and their children. The vibrant and soft colours of the fabric create a soft cocoon around the figures and seem to further emphasis the beauty and importance of the depicted scenery and its protagonists.
Nicolaas de Liemaecker (also spelled as Liemaker or Liemackere) was a Flemish painter born in Ghent in 1601. He was also known under the name Nicolaas Roose. His father was Jacobus de Liemaecker, a painter upon glass. Nicolaas is reported to have been trained by his father and Gaspard de Crayer II (1), an apprenticeship with Otto Van Veen has also been suggested. In 1624 he worked at the Court of the Bishop of Paderborn and for Ferdinand of Bavaria. He later returned to his native city, where he focused on religious and historical paintings. He was a very accomplished and celebrated artist who attained a high rank in his profession. He witnessed the baptisms of Pieter and Janne-Marie Van Hulle...
