17th Century Mystical Marriage of Saint Catherine Oli on Canvas Roman School
Located in Milan, IT
17th century, Roman School
Mystical marriage of Saint Catherine of Alexandria
Oil on canvas, 32 x 23 cm
Frame cm 45 x 36
The saint is depicted in front of the Virgin holding the Child portrayed with the wedding ring in his hand, enriched with a precious stone. According to the Golden Legend, Catherine of Alexandria was a very beautiful young woman, the only daughter of the king of Costa, who had refused to marry the emperor Maxentius because she was a Christian and devoted to Christ. Maxentius, unable to convince her to sacrifice to idols, had sent to call the wisest men and fifty philosophers and orators who presented themselves and tried to divert her from faith in Christ. Catherine, however, played so well that she was able to convert them, arousing the anger of the emperor who condemned them to the stake. Catherine, however, who had criticized Maxentius for the new persecutions against the Christians, was sentenced to prison without food. Abandoned for twelve days, she was fed by a dove sent by God. Maxentius then decided to execute her with the torture of the toothed wheel become her attribute iconographic; but by divine intervention this broke and the young was saved. Finally, she was beheaded and milk flowed from her neck. Catherine’s princely status is witnessed here by her sumptuous dress. The iconography of the mystical marriage was born in the fifteenth century, probably because the traditional iconographic attribute, the wheel, was sometimes so small as to look like a ring, and refers to a vision that will always remain present in the mind and heart of the saint. In Heaven she appeared to her, among the Angels and Saints, Christ the Child, in the arms of the Virgin. He took a precious ring that the Virgin Mary handed to her and put it in her finger, saying "I, your Creator and Saviour, take you in marriage; confident that you will keep you pure until you celebrate your eternal wedding with me, in Paradise" When Catherine was laughing, she found in her finger the same ring that she had seen and had in Heaven, and she considered herself forever the bride of Christ.
In this extraordinary episode we can see the heart of Catherine’s religious sense, and of all her spirituality. For her, Christ is like the bridegroom, with whom there is a relationship of intimacy, communion and fidelity; he is the beloved, whom she loves above all...

Framed Miniature Painting Royal Camp Scene Qajar Style Hand-Painted Illustration
Located in Wembley, GB
Framed Persian Style Miniature Painting, Royal Camp Scene, Qajar Style, Hand-Painted
An exquisite Persian style miniature painting depicting a royal camp scene with courtiers, riders, and attendants set amid lush flowering trees and rolling landscapes. Finely executed in gouache and gold on paper, this elegant composition captures the refinement of Qajar-period artistry and the poetic spirit of Persian manuscript illumination.
The painting showcases vibrant tones of lapis blue, emerald, rose, and gold, with intricate attention to costume and gesture. The figures are rendered in delicate linework, framed within a traditional border, and presented in a gilded wooden frame with cream mount perfect for both classical and contemporary interiors.
Such scenes often illustrate stories from the Shahnameh (Book of Kings) or courtly romances of West Asian literature, symbolizing love, travel, and divine beauty.
Condition:
Excellent vintage condition. The painting remains vivid; minor toning to the mat consistent with age. Frame in very good condition.

'Les Quatre Eléments' by Pierre Victor Galland
Located in Brighton, West Sussex
Pierre-Victor GALLAND (1822-1892)
‘Les Quatre Eléments’
Four, oil on canvas.
France, Circa 1873.
Each painting depicting one of the cardinal elements personified as a female figure in the presence of its most evident attribute. Painted with strong light and colour.
Earth panel depicts one of the four elements in a compelling fashion with an ascendent female figure robed in flowing drapery with foot and arm extended reaching skyward: each with attendant putti below.
Earth is shown swathed in robes of greens and white, with a fanciful foliate headdress of lush leaves and bullrushes.
Air leaps effortlessly into the sky draped in blush pink and holding a slender fruiting bough.
Fire ascends dramatically into the sky holding forth a flaming torch and draped in bright burnished orange and grey, her image seemingly lit from a fire kindled below by an ignipotent putto.
Water suitably draped in billowing azure blue with a translucent undergarment, holds aloft a bubble representing water is portrayed with shimmering translucent wings, an attendant winged putto pulling at her hem.
Under the Second Empire, Haussmann’s transformation of Paris went hand in hand with the construction of luxurious mansions for the new haute bourgeois. Gallards extensive work for wealthy patrons such as Lionel de Rothschild and Edouard André, led him to become one of Paris’s most admired and sought-after decorative artists. His fame quickly spread and led him to carry out projects outside the capital for, among others, Baron von Derwies in Nice, Prince Narischkine in Saint Petersburg and William Vanderbilt in the United States.
