Ritratto di Donna Scuola Inglese Metà 1600 Ritratto della Vedova Jane Bromley

1640 circa

About the Item

Ritratto di Dama, Scuola Inglese Metà 1600 dipinto ad olio su tela in buono stato di conservazione. La giovane donna ritratta a mezzo busto, identificata come Jane Bromley è dipinta con un copricapo da vedova, indossato durante il lutto. Questa antica opera di scuola inglese ritrae la vedova con lo sguardo assente, l’aspetto ceruleo, etereo, privo di sfondo e di contesto, dall’abbigliamento austero e claustrale impreziosito unicamente da una spilla. Le ciocche di capelli scure che fuoriescono dal copricapo e l’incarnato della donna denunciano la giovane età. Dalle ricerche iconografiche effettuate siamo riusciti ad identificare la figura di Jane Bromley . Era l’erede di Hallon Manor (successivamente Davenport) e bisnonna di Henry Davenport III (1677–1731), che sposò Barbara Ivory (morta nel 1748). Il copricapo particolare che indossa era tipico delle vedove dell’epoca; il lutto spiega sia l’austerità che l’intensità del dipinto. Questo antico dipinto di scuola inglese risale alla prima metà del XVII secolo e proviene da una collezione privata lombarda, acquistato in una vendita all’incanto da Christie’s Londra del 28 febbraio 1936, lotto n. 70 venduto come John Riley, ritratto di Lady Uvedale de Tompkyns; si presenta in buono stato entro cornice lignea con decori in pastiglia e finitura a mecca. Un dipinto analogo è esposto al Fox Talbot Museum a Lacock Abbey nello Wiltshire in Inghilterra, dato in prestito dalla stessa famiglia Davenport dal 1993. Per l'esportazione dall'Italia di un oggetto d'arte antico va richiesta al Ministero Italiano dei Beni Culturali una licenza di esportazione chiamata BELLE ARTI. il rilascio di tale licenza governativa richiede un paio di settimane circa, da aggiungere ai tempi di spedizione dell'ordine.

"White Gold Lilies for the Dove of Peace" Contemporary Figurative Oil Painting
By Sax Berlin
Located in Brecon, Powys
A masterwork from a master artist,White Gold Lilies for the Dove of Peace is an immaculate piece, pure colours balanced with earthy hues imbue the work with shades of sumptuous richness seldom found outside the great collections. Nuance and symbolism combine within the elements of this painting to create an artistic journey through antiquity; Japanese wood block design, the language of flowers, even the colours themselves combine so masterfully to complete the piece. In this large ground breaking painting Berlin has used bright vermillion & turquoise powered tones, volcanic glass and rock garnered from the slopes of Mount Vesuvius create texture and the use of the finest hand ground pigments and pure white gold leaf escalate this seminal piece to a higher plane. This magnificent painting offers the pinnacle of modern fine art...
