About the Item
Antichità Castelbarco SRLS is proud to present:
Painting depicting "View of Rome with countryside scene with ancient ruins, with the Palatine from via dei Cerchi", work of high quality performed by PIETER VAN BLOEMEN DETTO «LO STENDARDO» (Antwerp, 1657-1720)
About 1690
oil on canvas, 76 x 104 cm.
Private Collection, Rome
Representative and typical testimony of Pieter van Bloemen (Antwerp 1657 - 1720), in particular of his stay in Rome, this suggestive "Country scene with views of Rome", presents us with a congenial subject to the painter, which we find in other times in his catalog .
It was precisely during his Roman years, from 1687 to 1692, that he reached the culmination of his career, with flattering successes, thanks also to the settings with Roman ruins in the background, as confirmed by the presence of various works in the houses of the aristocracy. Roman.
To be hung from this work, another painting by Van Bloemen is available, of equal size from the same subject, as well as from the same stylistic and compositional characteristics.
This beautiful canvas, which is therefore an interesting addition to the catalog of the works of the Flemish master, depicts horses and herds resting on the backdrop of ancient houses and ruins, where a view of Rome with the Palatine from via dei Cerchi is recognized.
From the first floor, with the animals studied and taken from various angles and a single male figure on the left, the representation develops diagonally with the buildings on the right, where other figures appear: a man with his horse, some adventurers sitting at the table outside of an inn where the host is drinking.
Pieter is clearly linked to the Flemish language, while proving to be Italian in the type of landscape and stylistic conduct. While his brother Jan Frans will specialize in the pure, classic-inspired landscape, Pieter combines it in a shocking key, preferring countryside scenarios with ancient ruins that are the backdrop to simple daily activities: horses to be drunk, laborers to work, rest of pedestrians at inns, markets.
The interest for animals emerges from the constant presence, as well as of horses, of goats, oxen, small crouching dogs, which in fact also become protagonists occupying the band of the first floor, according to a rather usual compositional scheme in Van Bloemen.

- Christ Jesus Lama Religious Paint Oil on canvas 17/18 th Century Old masterLocated in Riva del Garda, ITGiovan Battista Lama (Naples, 1673 - 1748) workshop Exaltation of the Holy Cross with the Symbols of the Passion oil on canvas 84 x 135 cm. - with frame 98 x 148 cm. The proposed painting is the work of a Neapolitan painter active at the beginning of the 18th century, although the composition betrays the influence of the Roman classicism prevailing at the end of the 17th century, discernible in the serene and casual atmosphere. This is a very interesting subject, namely the Exaltation of the Cross, a particular feast in Christian theology, commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus with the particular aim of emphasising the centrality of the mystery of the cross. We see precisely Jesus, bowed in prayer in the company of an angel, while a host of angels above hold the most relevant symbols of his Passion (in Latin, arma Christi), namely the objects that were used for the crucifixion. These include, of course, the cross held by the major angel, and then the nails (three or four), the crown of thorns the lance with which Jesus was pierced, Veronica's veil (the linen cloth that St Veronica...Category

- Moses and the Pillar of Cloud by Lucas Cranach the Elder and StudioBy Lucas Cranach the ElderLocated in New Orleans, LALucas Cranach the Elder and Studio 1472-1553 German Moses and the Pillar of Cloud Oil on panel Moses and the Pillar of Cloud is a bold and evocative composition that showcases the signature intense color and intricate detail of Lucas Cranach the Elder’s celebrated oeuvre. The remarkable 16th-century oil on panel by Lucas Cranach and his studio captures the narrative moment when Moses leads the Israelites out of Egypt and encounters God manifested through a large pillar of cloud. Moses stands at the precipice of a bridge and turns back to soldiers helping to lead the group of Israelites who huddle closely together. Cranach depicts Moses with his traditional iconography, rendering the rays of light on his head which came to be interpreted as "horns" in the translation of the Bible. Using his traditional walking staff, Moses gestures toward the pillar, seemingly acknowledging that God will protect the group as they cross the bridge to the other side, leaving exile and entering a promised land. In a nod to Cranach’s Germanic locale, he renders the figures and setting in a manner that feels decisively more akin to European aesthetics than those of the Red Sea. Soldiers wear elaborate, gothic suits of armor that recall the livery of Northern European guardsmen. The terrain appears more like a European forest giving way to a sweeping valley than the arid landscape the Israelites trekked through on their journey across the Red Sea. Though still clearly recounting a story from the Old Testament, Cranach renders the cast of characters and setting in an earthly, familiar manner. This aesthetic shift speaks to Cranach’s own changing beliefs as he found himself at the center of the Protestant Reformation. After first gaining recognition in 1505 as the official painter of Frederick the Wise, Cranach established a thriving painting and print studio in Wittenberg, Germany. Cranach was renowned for his court portraits and genre paintings and was also well known for his association with the famous protestant reformer Martin Luther, then under the protection of Frederick the Wise. As Wittenberg became a bastion of new religious thought, Cranach soon befriended Luther and played an active role in creating the printed materials that proliferated throughout the Reformation...Category
