About the Item

Oil on board. Rural landscape with a watercourse, a stone bridge and a house in ruins, located among trees, animated by the presence of a person and without apparent subject matter that is inspired by Baroque works from Northern Europe. Given the popularity they had at the time, this type of paintings were taken over from the nineteenth century, inspired by important works of the Baroque both Flemish school and the Dutch, and past the detail of almost all the landscapes of the sixteenth century to present a matter of history or biblical (that in numerous occasions was minimized). Between the end of the 16th century and the beginning of the 17th century, the landscape became very popular in the Netherlands, with teachers of the genre proliferating. Size: 62 x 4 x 50 (without frame). 68 x 6 x 56 cm (aprox. total).

Landscape with Classical Ruins, Oil on Canvas, Attributed to Giner, Vicente
Located in Madrid, ES

At the foot of this building, there is a group of people, dressed in the classic way (women, children and a soldier with a spear).

Landscapes, Xalapa, Mexico, Pair of Oils on Canvas, Spanish School, Ca 1840
Located in Madrid, ES
Landscapes, Xalapa, Mexico. Pair of oils on canvas. Spanish school, around 1840. Provenance: Conde de la Cortina collection, Jalapa, Mexico. Couple of landscapes framed within the Spanish school of the first half of the 19th century, with a clear romantic affiliation. Both evidence the knowledge of the Dutch classicist landscape, one of the main influences on the Spanish romantic landscape. Thus, we see compositions in "V", closed on the sides and open in the center, very low horizons that allow a wide development of the sky, spaces built in depth based on successive planes subtly differentiated by light and color, and small figures perfectly integrated into the natural setting. In addition, the skies are scenographic and dramatic, with low clouds behind which the golden light characteristic of the classicist landscape filters. One of the most radical aspects of romantic painting was the attempt to replace large canvases with historical or religious themes with landscapes. They wanted the pure landscape, almost figureless or totally devoid of them, to achieve the heroic significance of history painting. They were based on the idea that human feeling and nature should be complementary, one reflected in the other. In other words, the landscape should arouse emotion and transmit ideas. Thus, landscapers like the author of these canvases tried to express their feelings through the landscape, instead of imitating it. The romantic landscape had two main aspects: the dramatic one, with turbulent and fantastic views, and the naturalistic one, which emphasized images of a peaceful and serene nature. This second conception is what we see embodied in these works; the painter tries to communicate a religious reverence for the landscape, nature in its fullness. In fact, the author's own use of light here conveys a foggy, cloudy, dreamlike atmosphere that invites the viewer to meditate and contemplate himself in the landscape. The romantic landscape is constituted, however, by manifestations of very different types and not comparable to each other; it does not affect all national schools equally, staying more faithful to tradition in schools such as the French or the Dutch. Thus, in this canvas we do not find the grandiose scenery of the British and Germans, the steep mountains or the monumental Gothic ruin...
