18th Century Military portrait of a young officer in Napoleonic period military dress. The painting is not signed but the subject is Major Alexander Brown. The work is oil on canvas later mounted on board and presented in a fine 'Regence style' carved gilt frame. There are labels to the back referring to the subject, 'Major Brown of Trinity' and a framers trade label from Edinburgh. A magnificent and imposing portrait of a young military officer in the prime of his life. His red uniform adorned with fine buttons, fringed epaulettes and high gilt collar. His ruddy complexion offset by his stylish hair, a quiff and swept forward to the sides as was the fashion at the time. Sir David Wilkie RA (18 November 1785 – 1 June 1841) was a Scottish painter, especially known for his portraits, including formal royal ones, and scenes from his travels to Europe and the Middle East. He painted successfully in a wide variety of genres, including historical scenes. His main base was in London, but he died and was buried at sea, off Gibraltar, returning from his first trip to the Middle East. He was sometimes known as the "people's painter". He was Principal Painter in Ordinary to King William IV and Queen Victoria. Apart from royal portraits, his best-known painting today is probably The Chelsea Pensioners Reading the Waterloo Dispatch of 1822 in Apsley House. Sir David Wilkie was actually admitted in 1799 (despite only being 14) through the influence of the Earl of Leven...

Dimensions with frame: 28,3 x 37 x 4 cm Signed and titled "C. Carelli Napoli" in the lower left corner. A closely related companion painting by the same artist, depicting a similar view of the Bay of Naples under different atmospheric conditions and of identical dimensions, is also currently available, offering the opportunity to acquire a rare and decorative pair. This lively maritime scene depicts traditional fishing boats resting on the calm waters of the Bay of Naples, with the unmistakable silhouette of Mount Vesuvius rising in the distance. Executed with vibrant brushwork and a refined sense of atmosphere, the composition beautifully captures the daily life and maritime character of southern Italy. Overhead, a dramatic, cloud-laden sky gathers above the bay, its heavy formations creating a slightly ominous mood that contrasts with the stillness of the water and adds a striking sense of tension and atmosphere to the scene. In the foreground, several fishermen gather aboard wooden boats loaded with fishing nets and equipment. Their colorful garments add touches of red, green, and ochre that animate the composition, while the large sail of the central vessel creates a striking visual anchor. The quiet water reflects both the boats and the warm light of the sky, enhancing the painting’s sense of serenity. Beyond the fishing activity, Mount Vesuvius dominates the horizon, releasing a faint plume of smoke that adds drama and authenticity to this classic Neapolitan view. The contrast between the dark volcanic slopes and the luminous sea creates depth and visual balance throughout the scene. The painting reflects the rich tradition of 19th- and early 20th-century Neapolitan marine painting, celebrated for its picturesque depictions of coastal life and iconic views of the Bay of Naples. This atmospheric work would make an excellent addition to collections of Italian marine painting, Grand Tour subjects, or historic views of Naples and Mount Vesuvius.
