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.

- Storm See Water Landscape Vernet 18th Century Paint Oil on canvas Old masterLocated in Riva del Garda, ITClaude-Joseph Vernet (Avignon, 1714 - Paris, 1789) workshop of The Storm on the Lighthouse 1750/60 Technique: Oil on canvas Dimensions: 48 x 67 cm / framed 77 x 93 cm We share a highly pleasing work, a splendid marine executed by a talented painter from the workshop of the Frenchman Claude-Joseph Vernet, depicting a coastal view set in a Mediterranean port with the sea still stormy. The focal point of the composition is the large lighthouse at the entrance to the port, which, due to the power of the sea, was unable to bring to safety the ship that had crashed against the rocks, while the silhouette of a second sailing ship can be glimpsed in the distance. The canvas shows in full the pictorial, chromatic and narrative characteristics of the great master Vernet's coastal landscapes, characterised by the inimitable atmospheric conditions always hovering between darkness and light, storm and calm, instilling the observer with contrasting feelings, made even more intense by a palette of vibrant and highly contrasting colours. A similar composition, from which our author must necessarily have drawn, also attributed to the workshop of Claude Joseph Vernet is to be found in France, in Nantes, at the Musée d'Arts.  The effects of the light create a visual drama in the contrast between the darkness of the rain-laden storm clouds and the gash of clear sky that is opening up, pierced by the timid rays of light. The real magic of the painting is the painter's highly personal use of light and colour, with chiaroscuro effects that accentuate its three-dimensionality and movement. The compositional typology, as well as the quality of execution and attention to detail we are dealing with, are typical elements of the 'prototypes' conceived by the master, later taken up around the middle of the 18th century by his best pupils. Similar versions can be found in the most important international museums and private collections, belonging to a large series of paintings that the master created, together with his collaborators, during his stay in Italy. Vernet lived in Rome for twenty years (1734 - 1753), becoming particularly popular with English aristocrats who stopped there on their Grand Tour. International fame followed him from Rome to France, and to his English and French clients he added German princes...Category
