About the Item

This superb Italian Old Master religious portrait oil painting is attributed to circle of Bartolomeo Schedoni. Painted circa 1700 it is a half length portrait of the Madonna holding baby Jesus in her arms and dressed in a rich red robe. The detail and brushwork are lovely. An excellent Italian Old Master religious portrait. Provenance. Sussex estate. Condition. Oil on canvas, 28 inches by 20 inches and in good condition. Frame. Housed in a gilt frame, 36 inches by 27 inches and in good condition. Bartolomeo Schedoni (1578 - 1615). Schedoni was the son of a mask maker employed at the ducal courts of Modena and Parma. He was precociously gifted as an artist and in 1595 was sent by the Duke of Parma to train with Federico Zuccaro in Rome. By 1597 he was officially in the Duke's employ as a painter. However, after a short spell in prison because of his disorderly conduct he left Parma for Modena, where he became court painter to Cesare d'Este. In 1607 he returned to Parma and worked almost exclusively for Duke Ranuccio I Farnese. Schedoni's works show a clear debt to Correggio and Parmigianino, but he was also receptive to the innovations of the Carracci. The contrast between Schedoni's delicate and refined style and his unruly life has often been noted.

  • Portrait of a Young Gentleman - Dutch Old Master 17thC art portrait oil painting
    Located in London, GB
    This superb Dutch Old Master portrait oil painting is attributed as by a follower of Dutch 17th century artist Gerrard van Honthorst. The original of this painting hangs in Wilton House, Wiltshire, home to the 18th Earl and Countess of Pembrokeshire. The painting was previously attributed to Van Dyck by early cataloguers, but after exhaustive comparisons with the two Honthorst brothers' works, it was concluded that Gerrard van Honthorst was the artist who painted the original in Wilton House. Our painting was painted circa 1695 by a follower of Gerrard Honthorst. It was sold to us as circle of Cornelius Johnson. The sitter is Prince Rupert of the Rhine, Duke of Cumberland, Earl of Holderness (1619-1682). He was an English army officer, admiral, scientist, and colonial governor. He first came to prominence as a Royalist cavalry commander during the English Civil War. Rupert was the third son of the German...
