Old Masters Paintings

OLD MASTERS

Encompassing centuries of change in Europe between 1300 and 1800, from booms of prosperity to bloody revolutions, Old Masters describes a wide range of artists. The informal term was derived from the title of an artist who trained in a guild long enough to become a master, such as Leonardo da Vinci, who studied in a Florence painters’ guild. However, Old Masters paintings, prints and other art is now used to refer to work made by any artist with a high level of skill in painting, drawing, sculpture or printmaking who worked during this era.

The 15th century’s expansive trade and commerce spread culture across borders. A vibrant period of art emerged, bolstered by studies of anatomy and nature that influenced a new visual realism. From Raphael and Michelangelo in the Renaissance to Rembrandt van Rijn and Johannes Vermeer in the Dutch Golden Age, artists expressed emotion, naturalism, color and light in new ways. El Greco and Paolo Veronese were leaders in the dramatic style of Mannerism, while Caravaggio and Peter Paul Rubens demonstrated the movement and meticulous detail of Baroque art.

Historically, most attention was concentrated on male artists, but recent research and exhibitions have elevated the impactful work of women such as Rachel Ruysch and Artemisia Gentileschi. In late-18th-century France, female artists like Adélaïde Labille-Guiard and Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun were prominent names. Nevertheless, access to the academies and guilds was highly restricted for women, and even those able to establish practices were expected to adhere to portraits and still lifes rather than the grand history paintings being created by men.

A Pair of 18th century Venetian Canal Scenes in the Style of Francesco Guardi
Located in West Sussex, GB
Style of Francesco Guardi (1712-1793) Venetian Canal Scenes, a pair -San Giorgio Maggiore from the Bacino di San Marco -Santa Maria della Salute from the Grand Canal Oils on canvas: 13 X 18 ¼ in. Frame: 18 ½ x 23 ½ in. Late 18th / early 19th century. Francesco Guardi was an Italian painter of veduta, nobleman, and a member of the Venetian School. He was born in Venice in 1712, the son of a minor painter, Domenico Guardi, and went on to become, after Canaletto, the main painter of views of Venice in the mid-18th century. His early figurative paintings were carried out in association with his brother, Gian Antonio, but in about 1760 Guardi turned to view painting, recording both the architecture of the city and the celebrations of its inhabitants in interior and exterior scenes. These works brought him great success. The earliest of these show the influence of Canaletto, but he gradually adopted a looser style characterized by spirited brush-strokes and freely imagined architecture. Gallery notes: This fabulous pair of Venetian scenes are a work by a highly talented but unknown artist painting...

17th century Flemish Old Master - Orpheus charming the animals with his music
Located in Antwerp, BE
17th century Flemish Old Master - Orpheus charming the animals with his music The present painting is full of delightful details, such as the unicorn galloping in the distance, the pair of storks in the air, the shiny feathers of the peacock, ... . In ancient Greek mythology, Orpheus was celebrated for his extraordinary musical talent and his ability to charm and enchant all living creatures with the melodies of his lyre. Legend has it that wherever Orpheus traveled, he was accompanied by a menagerie of animals drawn to the uplifting strains of his music.In lush forests and verdant meadows, Orpheus would sit beneath the shade of ancient trees, strumming his lyre and filling the air with melodies that stirred the hearts of all who heard them. Birds would perch on branches, their songs blending harmoniously with Orpheus's own, while deer and rabbits emerged from their hiding places to listen, their eyes shining with wonder and delight.Even the fiercest of beasts, such as lions and wolves, would approach Orpheus with caution, only to be soothed by the gentle rhythms of his music. They would lie down beside him, their wild instincts tempered by the tranquility of the melodies, creating scenes of rare harmony and peace in the natural world.Orpheus's ability to connect with animals through his music was a testament to the universal power of art and creativity. His story serves as a reminder of the profound bond that exists between humans and the natural world, and the transformative impact that music and beauty can have on our lives. Jacob Bouttas, born in Antwerp, Belgium, in 1660, hailed from a family of artists with a rich artistic tradition. Like his father and teacher Frederic Bouttats II and his grandfather Frederic Bouttats I, he was strongly influenced by Jan Bruegel the Elder and the Brueghel-spirit echoes through his oeuvre. He specialized in painting landscapes with biblical and mythological scenes populated by small figures and animals (visible in, amongst other collections, Munich, Alte Pinakothek; Dijon, Musée des Beaux-Arts). A series of twelve coppers dedicated to the creation of the world according to the Genesis story, from the separation of light and darkness to the descent of Adam is preserved in the Museum of Navarra. Provenance: Private collection France Measurements: 75 * 95 cms. Framing options available. Antwerp hands panelmark visible verso, indicating a date of creation of the panel in the first half of the 17th century, after 1620. Panels were expensive at the time, especially this size and approved by the Antwerp panelmalers guild. A similar composition (measuring ca. 73 * 105cms) was offered at a leading auction house in Vienna in 2003 as attributed to Jacob de Backer...
