Oil on Canvas; Hounds Chasing a Stag, Studio of Frans Snyders, Antwerp 1579-1657
By Frans Snyders
Located in London, GB
This powerful hunting scene is closely associated to the work of Antwerp-born seventeenth century painter and draughtsman Frans Snyders, widely considered the “progenitor of Flemish Baroque still-life and animal painting.”
Having grown up surrounded by artists, Snyders was initially apprenticed to Pieter Brueghel the Younger (1564-1637/38), scion of a well-established family of painters. Like many of his contemporaries in Northern Europe, to complete his education he then travelled to Italy, staying mainly in Rome and Milan (1608-09). Once back in Flanders, his profile as a skilled young painter – who had refined his craft by studying the masters of Italian art – came to the attention of Sir Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640), in whose Antwerp studio Snyders entered as an assistant in about 1610, and with whom he would go on to collaborate on a number of important commissions for years to come. In 1611, Snyders further strengthened his ties with the local community of painters by marrying Margaretha de Vos, sister to Cornelis and Paul de Vos, two artists with whom he would also regularly collaborate.
Thanks to the lessons learned in Italy and in Rubens’ studio, Snyders soon achieved the ability to create rhythmic and dynamic compositions, infused with vibrant colours and powerful naturalistic effects. Centred on the theme of the still life, his market scenes and representations of richly stocked pantries and larders embodied the buoyant and confident spirit of seventeenth-century Antwerp, a trading port with a wealthy merchant class and aristocracy (Still Life with Dead Game, Fruits, and Vegetables in a Market, 1614, The Art Institute of Chicago; Still-Life with Fowl and Game, 1614, Wallraf-Richartz Museum, Cologne). Flowers from all seasons and dead game are portrayed alongside baskets overflowing with fruit, precious gilt vessels and Chinese Wanli porcelain...

17th Century Italian Carved Polychrome Table, with Breccia Capitolina Marble Top
Located in London, GB
Carved to exceptional naturalistic effect, the base of the present console table takes the shape of a pear tree entwined with vines, its roots firmly planted in a grassy knoll, lush with vegetation. With shaped Breccia Capitolina marble top.
The fashion for such tables had been initiated in seventeenth-century Italy by the preeminent artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini (1598-1680), who – whilst primarily celebrated as a sculptor – was also active as a painter and as a furniture designer. As observed by scholar Alvar González-Palacios, it is amply recorded that “Bernini took punctilious care with the supports of his statues”, including for the pedestal of his renowned Apollo and Daphne in Rome’s Villa Borghese. In about 1617, Bernini carved a Carrara marble figure of the martyred Saint Lawrence that is considered by many a masterpiece of his early career, visible today in Florence’s Palazzo...

Chinese School Painting, in the Manner of Giuseppe Castiglione, 19th Century
Located in London, GB
A 19th Century Chinese School Painting, in the manner of Giuseppe Castiglione (also by the name of Lang Shi’ning)
Following the larger painting known by the title, “Kazaks presenting horses in tribute”, by Giuseppe Castiglione (Lang Shi’ning). This subtly executed copy of this original 18th Century artwork (1757, last photographs included), is a beautiful rendition of the Kazak people leading their horses in tribute to the seated Chinese Emperor (the original ink and paper on hanging scroll, is currently housed Ink at Réunion des Musées Nationaux). Painted onto canvas, with two decorative top hanging fixings.
Giuseppe Castiglione was born in Milan on July 19th of 1688, and studied painting extensively in Genoa and Lisbon, and joined the Jesuits in the early 18th Century before being sent to Macao, China by the European Catholic Church. After travelling to Beijing where his artistic ability impressed the Emperor, Castiglione served as imperial artist to the Emperor, as well as his three successors Kang Xi...
