Old Master Paintings


1 ANTWERP SCHOOL, 16TH CENTURY Christ as the man of sorrows oil on panel, unframed 15 x 111⁄2 in. (38.1 x 29.2 cm.) The present lot is possibly a fragment of a larger devotional piece with The Mater Dolorosa to Christ’s left, with a small part of her white veil showing by the right edge of the panel. To Christ’s right is presumably St John the Baptist. It can be compared to a work by the Master of the Holy Blood (active c.1530) recorded by the RKD, no. 33693. £3,000-£5,000

1

2 FOLLOWER OF JOOS VAN CLEVE The Christ Child eating grapes oil on panel 163⁄4 x 111⁄2 in. (42.6 x 29.2 cm.) The present lot appears to derive from a lost original by van Cleve, which can possibly be dated to c.1520/25. The composition was popular and other versions can be found in the Louvre, Paris and Wiesbaden, Gemäldegalerie amongst others (J.O. Hand, Joos van Cleve, The Complete Paintings, New Haven and London, 2004, p. 183) £2,000-£3,000

5 GERMAN SCHOOL, CIRCA 1600 Portrait of Johann Hermann, Count and Elector Palatine inscribed ‘V. G. G. / Johann Hermann Pfalz / graf und kurfurst’ (upper right) oil on panel, unframed 81⁄8 x 6 in. (20.6 x 15.2 cm.) The inscription ‘V.G.G.’ on lots 5 and 6 stands for V[on] G[ottes] G[naden], which means by Grace of God. Comparable portraits with the same inscription can be found in Gotischen Haus, Wörlitz, Germany and Jagdschloss, Letzlingen, Germany. The portraits are by different hands and include sitters from smaller aristocratic families and European Royalty. It appears that it was popular in Germany around 1600 to commission a series of small portraits of members of the family amongst important rulers, some of which are copies after the great artists of the time such as Lucas Cranach the younger and Francois Clouet. £1,500-£2,000

6 GERMAN SCHOOL, CIRCA 1600 Portrait of Johannes, Prince Elector of Trier inscribed ‘V. G. G. / Johannes Chur / fürst zu Trier’. (upper right) oil on panel, unframed 81⁄8 x 6 in.

12 ENGLISH SCHOOL, 17TH CENTURY Portrait of a gentleman, traditionally identified as Edward Talbot (1561-1617), 8th Earl of Shrewsbury, half-length, in a brown embroidered doublet and lace ruff inscribed ‘Edward Earle of / Shrewsbury’ (upper left) oil on panel 241⁄4 x 171⁄4 in. (61.6 x 43.8 cm.) Provenance: By descent to the 3rd Lord Savile, Rufford Abbey, Nottinghamshire; Christie’s, London, 18 November 1938, Rufford Abbey Sale, lot 154, as by Zuccaro (11 gns. to the father of a former owner, by whom sold). Anonymous sale; Christie’s, London, 22 November 2006, lot 11. Edward Talbot was the son of George, 6th Earl of Shrewsbury and Gertrude, daughter of Thomas Manners, Earl of Rutland. One of the estates owned by his father was Rufford Abbey, a former Cistercian monastery. This portrait was bought as part of the house’s contents by the Savile family of Yorkshire. When the house was later sold, its contents, including this portrait, were auctioned at Christie’s in 1938.

11

Talbot married Jane, daughter of Cuthbert, 1st Baron Ogle in 1583. He was educated at Magdalen College, Oxford University and was Member of Parliament for Northumberland between 1586 and 1587. In 1616 he succeeded his brother as the 8th Earl of Shrewsbury and died without issue shortly after. £2,000-£3,000

13 ANGLO DUTCH SCHOOL, 17TH CENTURY Portrait of King Charles I (1600-1649), bust-length, in gilded cuirassier armour with inscription ‘This portrait of King Charles 1st painted by / Vandyke was cut out of old guilt leather / ..... found in a garret, on which had been / painted the Family of the King. The .... has / probably been given as a present to some / family of distinction’ (on the stretcher) oil on silver gilt leather laid down on canvas, unframed 127⁄8 x 101⁄2 in. (32.8 x 26.8 cm.) It is of particular interest that Charles did in fact own a fully gilded cuirassier armour, which is now on display in the Tower of London (Royal Armouries II.91.). It had originally been made for his brother Henry (1594-1612). There is a possibility that the King is wearing this armour here. The present lot appears to be the only known 17th century portrait of Charles I on silver gilt leather. The purpose of painting on this medium is that the armour and face shine beautifully in candle light. This portrait is thought to have been painted by a Flemish or Dutch artist working in England. An interesting reference to the potential artist can be found in correspondence between Basil, Viscount Feilding and James, Third Marquis of Hamilton, where Basil mentions a new artist painting on ‘leather hangings’, whose work might interest the King.

Feilding to Hamilton, Turin, 12th/22nd September 1638: “……I have heere a Painter in my house a Flemming who hath spent his time most at Rome, and follow’d there Rafaells schoole. The Car. Richelieu by one Gaffarelli sought to gamne him to his service as one for these times esteem’d for designe. Hee hath a new way, never practis’d but att Rome, of makeing great designs and representing histories upon leather hangings in chiaro scuro, wch would be though done upon bare walls, of great ornament to a house, and are much us’d in the borders of chambers and upon seelings. I have often heard of his Ma.ties designe of building a Royal Pallace; for the adorning whereof this man being verie proper…..” (see P. Shakeshaft, ‘To Much Bewiched with Thoes Intysing Things’: The Letters of James, Third Marquis of Hamilton and Basil, Viscount Feilding, concerning Collecting in Venice 1635-1639, The Burlington Magazine, vol. 128, no. 995, February 1986, p. 131.) £8,000-£12,000

16 JOHN CLOSTERMAN (OSNABRÜCK 1660-1711 LONDON) Portrait of a gentleman, believed to be a self-portrait oil on canvas 271⁄2 x 23 in. (69.8 x 58.4 cm.) Provenance: Anonymous sale; Sotheby’s, London, 21 March 1956, lot 82, as Dobson. (£15 to Easton) Anonymous sale; Christie’s, London, 24 July 1981, lot 128, as John Baptist Closterman (£850). Literature: (possibly) G. Vertue, Notebook, i.22 George Vertue (1684-1756) was an engraver and antiquarian who produced an invaluable series of notebooks with information concerning English artists. He noted ‘Mr John Closterman his picture painted by himself in the hands of Mr Cope. Another in the possession of Mr Tiburin.’ These self-portraits have been presumed lost, perhaps until now.

The present lot is dated in Closterman’s oeuvre to c.1690, when the artist would have been thirty years old. The self-confidence of the sitter and sense of immediacy combined with the composition make a compelling argument for a self-portrait. The broad and spontaneous handling suggest that this portrait was not a commission, but rather for personal use or for someone close to the painter. It can also be compared to Sir Godfrey Kneller’s (1646-1723) selfportrait, in his own hair, of c.1685 in the National Portrait Gallery, London. Kneller was London’s most successful portrait painter of the time, it is therefore likely that Closterman was familiar with his selfportrait. The position of the left hand echoes a further Kneller self-portrait, in a wig, of c.1688-90 (engraved Pieter Schenk, National Portrait Gallery, London), which in turn may derive from a selfportrait by Sir Anthony Van Dyck (Private Collection on loan to the Rubenshuis) ‘with his left hand at his breast’, which was last recorded in the Royal Collection in 1688 (Sir Oliver Millar in Barnes, De Poorter, Millar and Vey, Van Dyck a Complete Catalogue of the Paintings, 2004 IV A2). £8,000-£12,000

Provenance: Lefory Family, Carrigglas Manor, Longford, Ireland

The two men-o’war are copied from The ‘Resolution’ in a Gale by Willem van de Velde II in the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich (BHC3582). The artist of the present lot added the small fishing boat to the left and rocks in the foreground, and chose a horizontal format.

52

52 PRIVATE COLLECTION (LOT 52) AFTER TIZIANO VECELLIO, CALLED TITIAN Venus, Ceres, Bacchus oil on canvas 39 x 511⁄2 in. (99.1 x 130.8 cm.) The present lot derives from Titian’s masterpiece of c.1530-35 in the Louvre, Paris. Free adaptations of Titian’s composition emerged in the 17th century and are possibly by Alessandro Varotari, called il Padaovanino (Padua 1588-1649 Venice) and his workshop. This lot is a later version, that appears to be closest to an adaptation in Palazzo Durazzo-Pallavicini in Genoa.

The subject of Titian’s work is much debated and is now mostly referred to as Allegory of Marriage. It was previously known as Allegory of Alfonso d’Avalos. The subject of the adaptations is in turn also open to interpretation. The woman holding a glass urn could be Venus, with Cupid leaning against her back. This idea in fact is borrowed from another famous composition by Titian; Cupid Blindfolded, in Villa Borghese, Rome. The young man holding grapes must be Bacchus. The woman to the right is seen with a satyr holding a basket of fruit over her head, which suggests that she is Ceres. £10,000-£15,000

61 JOSEPH WRIGHT OF DERBY (DERBY 1734-1797) Portrait of a lady, traditionally identified as Susannah Fenton, in a blue and pink dress with a feathered hat, feigned oval with inscription ‘Miss Fenton Granddaughter to / John Wedgwood Esq of Harracles / Drawn in Yr Year 1755.’ (on an old label on the stretcher) oil on canvas 297⁄8 x 247⁄8 in. (75.9 x 63.2 cm.) We are grateful to Brian Allen for confirming the attribution on the basis of a photograph. Literature: (probably) B. Nicolson, Joseph Wright of Derby: Painter of Light, London and New York, 1968, I, p. 196. The sitter can be identified as Susannah Fenton, only daughter of Susannah Wedgwood (b.1699) and John Fenton (1693-1743). Miss Fenton was the granddaughter of John Wedgwood of Harracles (1669-1757), Harracles Hall, Longsdon, Staffordshire. According to the London Chronicle of 16-22 February 1763, Miss Fenton married Captain John Daniell in Litchfield. Daniell was a captain in Colonel Burton’s regiment, an infantry rifle regiment of the British army who fought successfully against the Cherokees in the Anglo-Cherokee war (1758-1761). The present lot is an excellent example of Wright of Derby’s early portraits. A Miss Fenton is recorded three times in the artist’s account book. Nicholson noted it amongst the early portraits of c.1760. However, the more recent discovery of the portrait of Anne Bateman, which is signed and dated 1755, shed a new light on dating the artist’s early works. Wright of Derby commenced his training in Thomas Hudson’s studio in 1751 and returned to Derby in 1753, where he settled for a while and painted family and friends. The present lot can be dated to this period. In 1756 he returned to Hudson’s studio to finalise his training. Wright of Derby had close ties with local community and was associated with members of the illustrious Lunar Society, a group of Midlands intellectuals, industrialists and scientists that challenged established beliefs and pioneered in research and innovation. The likes of Erasmus Darwin (grandfather of Charles) and Josiah Wedgwood were members of the society and the latter was one of the artist’s most important patrons. Furthermore, Josiah was a distant relative of the sitter’s grandfather.

We are grateful to Dr Martin Butlin for proposing the attribution. When this dramatic and atmospheric marine-scape first emerged it was argued that the present lot may be a missing work by Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775-1851) – Fishing Boats in a Stiff Breeze – a painting gifted by Turner to his friend and executor Rev Henry Scott Trimmer, and later sold at Christie’s in 1860. Sir Augustus Callcott produced a number of compositions in the manner of Turner at the beginning of the 19th century. For example, he was commissioned to copy Turner’s Sheerness and the Isle of Sheppey by a former owner, now in the Tate Collection of c.1807/8. The present lot is thought to date to this period. £2,000-£3,000
