A Woman Standing At
A Harpsichord, A Man

£20.000
Behind the couple hangs a painting of a wooded landscape, & above the doorway is a bust. The woman's dress is the same as the one depicted in 'A Woman playing a Virginal', also in the National Gallery, & its style suggests a date in the late 1670s. Oc ...

Dujardin visited Italy between 1640 & 1650, & his knowledge of the landscape of the Roman Campagna formed the basis of his Italianate landscapes. This work was probably painted shortly after his return to Amsterdam in the early 1650s. ...

This composition is characteristic of Hobbema's approach to landscape painting: a forest scene with a view towards a clearing in the middle distance, illuminated by strong sunlight, & a picturesque farm building in the middle ground. Another version of ...

A Woody Landscape With
A Cottage Print

This is one of Hobbema's favourite compositions. Three other versions with slight differences are known (Washington, National Gallery of Art; The Hague, Mauritshuis; formerly Engl&, Robarts collection). Hobbema's composition shows a domestic landscape of trees, houses & villagers. The narrow path leads to a clearing illuminated by strong sunlight. There are picturesque farm buildings & prominently placed figures. At about this date Hobbema was developing his style away from that of his teacher Ruisdael. His landscapes became increasingly decorative both in colour & composition. ...

A Stag Hunt Print

This landscape, which was once falsely signed as the work of Paulus Potter, was probably painted in the later 1640s. There is no reason to doubt the damaged signature, & the picture compares well with other signed works by Lagoor, who was a close follower of Jacob van Ruisdael. ...

In 17th-century Holland it was usual to drape tables with Turkish carpets, as here, on the right. The tapestry hanging on the back wall appears to show Hagar in the Wilderness. Probably painted in the early 1670s, this painting belongs to a group of works ...

A Young Man And A Girl
Playing Cards Print

This painting was in England & attributed to Rembrandt as early as 1775. Subsequently it has been thought to be by Nicolas Maes, who was in Rembrandt's studio in the years around 1650. This is not, however, entirely persuasive &, more recently, the work has been attributed to another Dordrecht painter, Cornelis Bisschop (1630
- 1674), who knew Maes's work well & imitated it. However, no signed painting by Bisschop displays the broad handling which is so characteristic of this picture & this interesting attribution must, for the time being, remain speculative.

A Young Man And Woman
Making Music Print
£20.000
The duet played by the couple may well refer to the harmony of true love, while the foot-warmer is usually interpreted as a symbol for the effort a man has to make in order to gain a woman's love. The portrait in the right background is in the style of Michiel van Miereveld (1567
- 1641), & is probably of Prince Frederik Henrik of Orange (1584
- 1647), who became Stadholder of the Dutch Republic in 1625.

A Young Astronomer Print

The young astronomer holds a celestial globe with constellations shown in the form of animals. Among those visible are some of the northern and zodiacal constellations: at the top, Draco; on the left, Ursa Major and, below it, Leo; on the right, beneath the encircling brass ring, Bubuleus. The stand for the globe is on the right, and a quadrant is in the foreground. The attribution and dating depend on the similarity of this picture with a painting of an astronomer, dated 1685 and signed by van Deuren (New York, Christophe Janet, 1978). The model and globe appear to be the same in both works.
