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...

Emilio Donnini Tuscan Landscape, Oil on Canvas with Gilt Frame
By Emilio Donnini
Located in Prato, IT
Tuscan landscape with bridge over a stream and peasant women
Signed "E. Donnini", bottom right
Gilded frame
Oil on canvas, cm H83,5 x W60
Emilio Donnini (Florence, 1809 - Florence, 1886) was an Italian painter.
There is no information regarding Donnini's pictorial training, whose documented activity, exercised in his Florentine studio in via del Maglio, began in 1843, the year in which he participated in the exhibition of the Florentine Promoter Society with View of a river with a bridge. Regular frequenter of the Caffè Michelangiolo, the meeting place of Macchiaioli painters, he regularly participates in the exhibitions organized by the Florentine Promoter Society of Fine Arts, starting from 1845 with Country of invention and View of a mill near Pisa and in 1847 with a series of views of Versilia. In the same year, his friend Antonio Puccinelli portrayed him in the Portrait of the painter Emilio Donnini: with the Pisan, Donnini shares patriotic and irredentist ideals and in all likelihood participates in the uprisings of 1848. In this period he approaches the Markò family, with whom he frequently moves between the Island of Elba, the Lazio and Tuscan countryside to paint landscapes en plein air, in the Macchiaioli way. In 1848 he painted Glimpses of Vicopisano, in 1849 he participated in the Promoter with a View of the Valdarno near Docciola, in 1850 with Marciana, View in the outlines of Seravezza and Marciana Marina. In 1852 he painted a marina for the walls of the Caffè Michelangiolo, in 1853 he participated in the Promoter with the Porto Lungone beach, Civitavecchia beach and Tramonto di sole sul mare.
Starting from 1854 he is part of the artists of the Scuola di Staggia with the Markò, Serafino De Tivoli, Carlo Ademollo, Alessandro La Volpe, Lorenzo Gelati and Saverio Altamura and, in the same year, he was awarded by the Promoter for the Marina di Livorno paintings at the Ponte alla Sassara, Marina near Marciana with sun effect and View of a lake with sunset.
In 1855 he participated in the Promotrice with Marina with boats, A road of Mugello near Vicchio, The furnaces of Prince Corsini in the Valdarno and Lo stradone del Gombo, in 1856 with Campagne Senesi, in 1857 with Paese del Mugello with bather, in 1858 he was awarded the Silver medal with A morning on the sea, where he also exhibits Country near Pisa, The mountains of Marciana, Rio beach...

Henry Stanier British Born Artist, Beautiful Orientalist Painting, 1859
By Henry Stanier
Located in Phoenix, AZ
Orientalist oil on board by Henry Stanier (1831-1894) in the ornate original frame.
Titled “The Narghuileh” and dated 1859.
Signed on the verso Stanier and initialed H.S.
Titled on the verso in the artist's hand.
Measures: 12" H x 9" W inches. Frame measures: 24" H x 21" W
The painting is in good condition.
Henry Stanier (1831-1894)
Stanier was born in Birmingham, England (1831-1894) but lived also in Spain, where he passed away in Granada in 1894.
During the 1880s and 1890s Stanier often painted the view from the Mirador de San Nicolas. Inspired by the rich cultural legacy of Granada’s Moorish past, he also produced a number of carefully observed architectural subjects, sometimes incorporating picturesque or exotic figures in an Orientalist vein. Such scenes were occasionally exhibited in London at the Royal Society of British Artists, although it appears that Stanier found a ready market for his work amongst Granada’s passing foreign tourists.
As a young artist in his home city of Birmingham, Stanier had been an active exhibitor of flower pieces and historical genre scenes. Later, in the 1860s and 1870s, he painted Egyptian landscapes...
