About the Item
Paolo De Matteis (Piano del Cilento, 1662 - Naples, 1728)
attributed/ workshop
Triumph of the Trinity with Our Lady, Saint Joseph, Saint John the Baptist, Saint Ignatius, Saint Francis Xavier and Saint Augustine
(Preparatory sketch for altarpiece)
Oil on canvas
76 x 51 cm - with frame 85 x 61 cm
This interesting painting, depicting the Triumph of the Trinity, stands out for the refined but natural grace of the faces and gestures, and the precision of the drawing combined with the soft tone of the colours, warm but vivid, present this painting with the refined taste of early 18th century Naples tempered by Roman aesthetics.
These clues allow us to circumscribe its authorship to the workshop of Paolo De Matteis (Piano del Cilento, 1662 - Naples, 1728), one of Luca Giordano's most important pupils in Naples, and an artist who was to mark the development of 18th-century Neapolitan art.
The strong imprint inherited from Giordano's works can be seen in the composition, mixed, however, with a pleasant Marattesque taste, although De Matteis tends to balance the two components, achieving a balance in the representation of the scene.
The painting depicts the triumphant Trinity with at the top centre - Jesus holding the cross, God the Father and the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove - with the Madonna and St Joseph on opposite sides seated on a cloud.
On the lower level is the theory of saints kneeling in adoration of the Trinity: from the left, one can recognise St. John the Baptist holding the palm in his right hand, the symbol of martyrdom, St. Ignatius, founder of the Jesuit congregation, St. Francis Xavier with a youthful face holding a white lily, and finally, on the far right, the figure of Augustine dressed as a bishop and with a mature face.
The structure of the painting clearly indicates that we are dealing with a valuable preparatory sketch, presumably a study for a fresco or larger altarpiece; this suggests that the final work was intended for the decoration of the bay of a church or private chapel.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
The painting is sold complete with an attractive gilded frame and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity and descriptive iconographic card.

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,

Coastal landscape with fortified city, castle with tower, and battle scene
oil painting on canvas
Measurements: canvas 90 x 120, with frame 104 x 134
This expansive coastal landscape, with a fortress-city overlooking the sea and a small castle with a watchtower, serves as the stage for an eventful battle scene between soldiers and, presumably, a band of brigands.
It is an illustrative typology attributable to Pandolfo Reschi (Danzica 1643 - Florence 1696), known for his works in which he perfectly combines the airy landscape of Tuscan-Roman matrix with images of knights in battle or brigands intent on their raids.
Pandolfo Reschi was born in Gdansk but from an early age he moved to Rome where he began his brilliant career following the style of Salvator Rosa, even if his real teacher was the Flemish-Italianized Livio Mehus. With Mehus and Rosa he refined his skills as a battle painter and was later taken to the workshop by the Borgognone, even if his main occupation was that of a genre painter.
The decisive turning point in his career came after his transfer to Florence, around the middle of 1660, where he continued his studies with Livio Mehus. After a decade he was now an established and highly coveted painter, so much so that in 1670 he was hired by the Medici court as protege of Cardinal Francesco Maria de Medici...

Paint Oil on canvas 17th Century Italy Mediterranean Landscapes Marina Flandre
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
We present this pair of fascinating coastal views, the fruit of the author's imagination, executed with an elegant descriptive taste and conceived with the scenographic sensitivity typical of the Flemish landscape tradition of the late seventeenth century. The canvases, in particular, fully reflect the pictorial style of the Flemish Peter van den Velde the Elder (Antwerp 1634-1707), a famous painter specialized in marine views with port cities and fortresses.
