About the Item
Romantic painting depicting a peaceful get-together in a park by Rudolf Alfred Höger
The elegantly dressed people are indulging in a delicious "al fresco" picnic on green hill on a sunny summer day, enjoying the pleasures of friendship and song. The painting has a wonderfully peaceful and joyful atmosphere.
Rudolf Alfred Höger (12 February 1877 – 7 November 1930) was an Austrian genre painter born in Proßnitz, Moravia. Among his notable works are scenes like "The Concert at Court," depicting rococo settings, and "Happy Round of Singers with a Danube Landscape," reflecting a longing for bygone eras. He often painted historical or everyday scenes from periods outside his own experience, as seen in "Music at Home" and "In May." Additionally, he depicted contemporary life around the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, as evident in works like "At the Heuriger in Grinzing" and "Fruit Market in Venice." Höger's repertoire also included landscapes and biblical themes such as "Susanna and the Two Elders."

- Large 17th century religious family painting - Mary with Christ and AnnaLocated in Antwerp, BE17th century Old Master painting depicting the Infant Christ with Mary and St. Anne attributed to Nicolas de Liemaker The artist of the present work wonderfully captured the loving gaze of Maria, looking in awe at her child. One can sense the tenderness and love in her eyes. The eyes of Christ appears to be filled with wisdom and love and a finely painted aura crowns his and his mother's heads. St. Anne, Mary's mother, gently holds the infant whilst gazing adoringly at him. The painting is not only a beautiful depiction of Christ and his mother and grandmother, but also a sweet image of the tender bond between a mother's and their children. The vibrant and soft colours of the fabric create a soft cocoon around the figures and seem to further emphasis the beauty and importance of the depicted scenery and its protagonists. Nicolaas de Liemaecker (also spelled as Liemaker or Liemackere) was a Flemish painter born in Ghent in 1601. He was also known under the name Nicolaas Roose. His father was Jacobus de Liemaecker, a painter upon glass. Nicolaas is reported to have been trained by his father and Gaspard de Crayer II (1), an apprenticeship with Otto Van Veen has also been suggested. In 1624 he worked at the Court of the Bishop of Paderborn and for Ferdinand of Bavaria. He later returned to his native city, where he focused on religious and historical paintings. He was a very accomplished and celebrated artist who attained a high rank in his profession. He witnessed the baptisms of Pieter and Janne-Marie Van Hulle...Category
