David Morier Art
Swiss, 1704-1770
David Morier was born in Berne, Switzerland in approximately 1705. He came to England in 1743 and obtained the patronage of William, Duke of Cumberland, who became his most frequent sitter. Morier’s most recognizable work is probably An Incident in the Rebellion of 1745 more commonly known as The Battle of Culloden. His work is marked by a meticulous attention to detail in uniform and equipment and he was much in demand as a portraitist by members of the Royal family, army officers and others in aristocratic society. He produced a number of equestrian portraits, of his patron and other senior officers, as well as his greatest series of works, known as the Grenadier Paintings, which document the uniforms and equipment of the Army in the years leading up to the Seven Years’ War. Following Cumberland’s fall from grace, Morier’s career went into decline. He was jailed for debt and sent to Fleet Prison in London in 1769 and died there on January 8, 1770.

Madonna Parrot Paint Oil on table Old master Flemish Follower Master of Parrot
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
'Master of the parrot' (a painter active in Antwerp in the early 16th century, whose name refers to the parrot who always occurs in his paintings) - follower of
Madonna on the throne with child
(With the coat of arms of the client family in the upper part of the composition)
Oil on the table
101 x 62 cm. - In frame 114 x 76 cm.
The beautiful proposed work explains the typical iconographic characters of the painter called 'Master of the parrot', a conventional name used by critics to define an anonymous Dutch author of the 16th century.
More precisely, it is a painter of the southern Netherlands, active in Antwerp around 1530-50, so defined for the unmistakable parrot who often appears in his works of him. In religious iconography the parrot has often been used as a Marian symbol, as it was widespread that its most common verse was "Ave", that is, the greeting of the Archangel Gabriele to Mary at the time of the Annunciation.
Today the idea according to which the name 'master of the parrot' has not referred to a single painter, but rather a group that, based on the stylistic characters, carried out their training at the workshop of Pieter Coecke Van Aelst (Aalst (Aalst is widespread. 1502 - Brussels 1550), creating devotion paintings intended for a bourgeois client and concentrating their activity on a specific topic particularly requested by the contemporary market.
By way of example we can mention the Virgin with the San Diego Museum of Art child where the figures, like our own, are in line, With the mannerist taste for the elegant body proportions that exceed reality, with elements such as tapered finger, wide face and thin nose. These characters also betray the influence of active artists in the region such as Joos Van Cleve...
