About the Item
Painting oil on canvas with dimensions of 110 x 125 without frame and 120 x 135 cm with frame depicting a landscape en plen air case and characters immersed in the nature of the second half of the 18th century.
The composition is very harmonious and warm in the colors, of great quality especially in the form while the scene represented here undoubtedly falls within the theme par excellence of the paintings of that period or in the so-called genre painting.
This painting depicts the allegory of life in the countryside where we can see the serenity, joy and peace that nature itself gives us by looking at the various protagonists of our painting, our humanity that lives and thrives thanks to nature; because it is from the earth that life is born and from the earth that we take inspiration and look out over life; therefore the countryside here should be understood as a hymn to life and as a cry of love for nature as it is the one who gives life to the human being.
In the background we see the protagonist or the green, sweet, flourishing earth that gives us a sense of stillness and peace as if it were transporting us
in a distant world full of love, in an Arcadian landscape where only quiet and serenity dominate our feelings; also we can see
the serenity of the men who work the land with calm and peace dedicated to the care of the land and the countryside itself. This is supposed to be a hymn
to life immersed in nature and to the simplicity that should reign in our hearts and in our thoughts.
This composition, painted at the end of the 1880s, is a work of quality and perfectly reflects the phase that Dutch painting is experiencing in those moments halfway between a sense of Mannerist inspiration and an adherence to the naturalistic observation that the he developed Caravaggesque imprint; also precisely from the point of view of expression and form with a setting of colors and of the scene so compact and dense, the painter lightened everything with the colors of the clothes of the truly ethereal protagonists and with a perspective capable of giving a sense of truly remarkable peace and serenity.

- Early oil depicting the Great Fire of LondonLocated in London, GBThe Great Fire of London in September 1666 was one of the greatest disasters in the city’s history. The City, with its wooden houses crowded together in narrow streets, was a natural fire risk, and predictions that London would burn down became a shocking reality. The fire began in a bakery in Pudding Lane, an area near the Thames teeming with warehouses and shops full of flammable materials, such as timber, oil, coal, pitch and turpentine. Inevitably the fire spread rapidly from this area into the City. Our painting depicts the impact of the fire on those who were caught in it and creates a very dramatic impression of what the fire was like. Closer inspection reveals a scene of chaos and panic with people running out of the gates. It shows Cripplegate in the north of the City, with St Giles without Cripplegate to its left, in flames (on the site of the present day Barbican). The painting probably represents the fire on the night of Tuesday 4 September, when four-fifths of the City was burning at once, including St Paul's Cathedral. Old St Paul’s can be seen to the right of the canvas, the medieval church with its thick stone walls, was considered a place of safety, but the building was covered in wooden scaffolding as it was in the midst of being restored by the then little known architect, Christopher Wren and caught fire. Our painting seems to depict a specific moment on the Tuesday night when the lead on St Paul’s caught fire and, as the diarist John Evelyn described: ‘the stones of Paul’s flew like grenades, the melting lead running down the streets in a stream and the very pavements glowing with the firey redness, so as no horse, nor man, was able to tread on them.’ Although the loss of life was minimal, some accounts record only sixteen perished, the magnitude of the property loss was shocking – some four hundred and thirty acres, about eighty per cent of the City proper was destroyed, including over thirteen thousand houses, eighty-nine churches, and fifty-two Guild Halls. Thousands were homeless and financially ruined. The Great Fire, and the subsequent fire of 1676, which destroyed over six hundred houses south of the Thames, changed the appearance of London forever. The one constructive outcome of the Great Fire was that the plague, which had devastated the population of London since 1665, diminished greatly, due to the mass death of the plague-carrying rats in the blaze. The fire was widely reported in eyewitness accounts, newspapers, letters and diaries. Samuel Pepys recorded climbing the steeple of Barking Church from which he viewed the destroyed City: ‘the saddest sight of desolation that I ever saw.’ There was an official enquiry into the causes of the fire, petitions to the King and Lord Mayor to rebuild, new legislation and building Acts. Naturally, the fire became a dramatic and extremely popular subject for painters and engravers. A group of works relatively closely related to the present picture have been traditionally ascribed to Jan Griffier...Category
