18th C, Portrait, Follower of Joshua Reynolds, Portrait of a Fine Lady
About the Item
The artist portrayed an upper-class lady who has some facial features of Reynolds' Mrs Andrews. More specifically, the long, straight nose and the large eyes. Her head resting on her hand is reminiscent of the classic gestus melancholic. An open book is on the table in front of her. Unlike Reynolds’ canvasses, this painting lacks fresh colours and a loose brushstroke. Cleaning the canvas would already make a big difference. The charm of this work lies in the dreamy gaze of the lady and the stillness of the moment.

- Pair of 16th C Portraits of Turkish Ottoman Sultans, follower of Paolo Veronese.Located in Leuven , BEPortrait of Sultan Isa Çelebi (died 1403),identity inscribed in Latin. Portrait of Sultan Murad III (1546–1595), identity inscribed in Latin. The present paintings refer to the works attributed to a follower of Paolo Veronese in the Bayerische Staatsgemälde Sammlungen , Würzburg . The paintings are comparable and complementary to a set of 6 Turkish rulers sold in 2022 for 1,5 M. by Sothebys. Located at the crossroads of East and West, the Ottoman Empire absorbed a diverse range of influences, including Chinese, European, and Persian, to produce a distinctive and coherent artistic language throughout a range of decorative arts. Ottoman expansion into Eastern Europe and subsequent access to the silver mines of the Balkans between the 14th and 16th C. led to a rich and skilled tradition of Ottoman silverware, tiles, dishes, and other ceramic objects. From the 16th to 19th C. the production of decorative arts continued to flourish with the introduction of both rococo and baroque elements signalling an increasingly open attitude to all things European. The production of Orientalist paintings is rich in topographical landscapes of Istanbul, genre scenes, and portraits of Ottoman notables. Europe’s fascination with its powerful, Muslim neighbours inspired a wave of accounts and paintings of the Ottoman world. The taking of Constantinople in 1453 by the young Mehmet II ('The Conqueror’) not only sparked this interest, but the young Sultan himself, who invited European painters to his court, further fuelled this fashion. The period following his reign saw relations between the Republic of Venice and its powerful neighbour reach a state of relative calm, initiating a period of exchange and trade. The present portraits of the Sultans, depicted in three-quarter view and wearing a large turban and richly embroidered cloak...Category
