Basket of flowers - Jan Van KESSEL the Younger (1654-1708)
About the Item
Oil on copper depicting a basket of flowers made up of roses, tulips and irises, with small florets fleshing out the larger buds carefully arranged in the basket.
Jan Van KESSEL the younger was the great-grandson of Jan BRUEGHEL de VELOURS. He received his first training from his father Jan Van KESSEL the elder? He soon left Antwerp for Spain in 1680, where he became a portraitist at the court of Charles II from 1686. His portraits are no longer known. He owes his fame to his still lifes, executed in the style of his father, with a taste for detail, delicate coloring and balanced composition? His Flemish style was gradually influenced by the Spanish style.
While the bulk of his floral production consists of garlands organized around festoons, his flower baskets, with their varied arrangement and variegated colors, are all the rarer and therefore all the more appreciated. Here, Brueghel's influence is decisive: the motif of the flower basket, popular in Flemish painting, lends itself to the profusion of buds so dear to Brueghel and Osias Beert.

- The Sacrifice of Iphigenia - Anton KERN (1709-1747)Located in PARIS, FROil on canvas depicting the sacrifice of Iphigenia, daughter of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra, sister of Orestes, Electra and Chrysothemis, and therefore subject to the curse of the Atreides. When Agamemnon attempts to launch the Greek fleet at Aulis towards the Trojan coast, the winds remain unfavorable. Calchas asserts that only the sacrifice of Iphigenia will appease the wrath of Artemis, and according to legend, raise the winds for the Greek fleet. Anton Kern or Körne (12 December 1709 - 8 June 1747) was a Bohemian-born painter; primarily of religious and historical scenes.Kern was born in Děčín, where his father Johannes was the town clerk. He was brought by his father to Dresden, where his artistic talents first came to the attention of Laurentio di Rossi, an artist of Venetian origin who was serving as a court painter in Saxony, while Kern was attending the Jesuit school in Bohosudov.[1] Rossi was sufficiently impressed to take him to his studio in Dresden and give him lessons. In 1723, Rossi took him to Italy and secured him an apprenticeship with Giambattista Pittoni. He remained with Pittoni for seven years, although he also took lessons at various public and private schools.[1] He returned to Bohemia in 1731, accompanied by Laurentio's brother, Ventura. Four years later, he was officially registered as a "Pictor" at the Faculty of Arts, Charles University in Prague. Between 1734-1738 he worked in Prague and in the north Bohemia. His most important works of this period are: two altarpieces with Saint Apollonia and Saint Agata for Loretto church in Prague, Saint Norbert for Strahov monastery, Saint John at Pathmos for Cistercian abbey church in Osek (Teplice Disctrict) and an enthroned Virgin...Category
