Jan Kevan-Marcello. '7 of Hearts'. Mixed media on canvas. Signed. 35.5 x 29cm. "Although always a lover of the arts, I am a relative newcomer, and came to creating art later in life. Starting with drawing, then graduating to acrylic, watercolour, and different forms of mixed media. My joy is in the creative process. I love experimenting with different materials, colours and textures. I am never disappointed, even with failures, believing you learn more by mistakes and it also increases the joy when you finally produce a successful piece of artwork. My inspiration comes from fellow humans, the beauty of our surroundings especially the colour and shape of flowers and architectural form. I have exhibited and sold paintings in London and Barbados, and attend regular art sessions and workshops in both countries."Transplant Links Community is a UK registered non-religious and non-political charity that saves the lives of children and adults in the developing world who suffer from life-threatening end stage kidney disease.

Palagi, Pelagio (attr.) Bologna 1775 - Turin 1860 65 x 50 cm Capriccio mit antiker Architektur. Öl/Lwd. Die Bühnenbildartige Architektur mit akzentuierter hell-dunkel Wirkung zeigt Palagis Beschäftigung mit den Arbeiten von Ferdinando Galli da Bibiena (1656-1743) und Giovanni Battista Piranesi (1720-1778) und bei letzterem insbesondere mit dessen "Carceri", wobei auch die in Europa verbreitete Ägyptomanie Spuren im vorliegenden Gemälde hinterlassen hat. Davon zeugt auch eine Gruppe von Architekturzeichnungen des jungen Palagi aus dem letzten Jahrzehnt des 18. Jhdts., die heute im Palazzo dell'Archiginnasio di Bologna aufbewahrt werden, von denen sich zahlreichere Elemente hier wiederfinden. Veröffentlicht in: Luca Violo, Il crepuscolo della memoria.

This is also evidenced by a group of architectural drawings by the young Palagi from the last decade of the 18th century, which are now held in the Palazzo dell'Archiginnasio di Bologna, of which numerous elements can be found here.

Viele der Krippen fanden Liebhaber in Deutschland und Österreich, so steht eine der schönsten Krippen im Regensburger Museum.

Platzer, Johann Georg Eppan 1704 - 1761 37 x 53 cm Antiochus und Stratonike. Öl/Kupfer. Provenienz: Aus einer bedeutenden bayerischen Privatsammlung, vor 1989 erworben - Antiochus (324-261 v. Chr., seit 281 König des asiatischen Diadochenreiches) ist aus geheimer Liebe zu seiner jungen Stiefmutter Stratonike erkrankt, was der Leibarzt erkennt. Daraufhin überlässt sein Vater König Seleukos ihm großmütig seine Gemahlin. (Plutarch 43, 38). Johann Georg Platzer, einer der bedeutendsten Maler des Wiener Spätbarocks bzw. Rokoko, etablierte sich mit seinen miniaturartigen Historien-, Gesellschafts- und Konversationsszenen schnell bei der Wiener Gesellschaft, dem Adel und am kaiserlichen Hof. Das vorliegende, äußerst charakteristische Gemälde zeigt hervorragend Platzers Kunstfertigkeit, spannungsgeladene und sehr figurenreiche Kompositionen vor Architekturkulisse in hellem und expressivem Kolorit äußerst detailreich zu platzieren, so dass trotz der Fülle die innere kompositorische Anordnung sofort verständlich wird und dem Betrachterauge ein ständig neues Entdecken gewährt wird. Der von Platzer meist gewählte Kupfergrund ermöglichte es ihm, eine Helligkeit der Farben und Abstufung der Töne zu erreichen, die den Oberflächen eine beinahe emaillierte Anmutung verleihen. Gutachten: Dr. Christina Pucher bezeichnet in ihrem Gutachten von 2015 das vorliegende Gemälde als "herausragendes Werk", dem sie "höchste künstlerische Virtuosität und Qualität" sowie einen "exzellenten Erhaltungszustand" bescheinigt. Das Gemälde wird in das in Vorbereitung befindliche Werksverzeichnis aufgenommen. PLATZER, JOHANN GEORG (1704-1761). Antiochus and Stratonice. Oil/copper. Provenance: Important Bavarian private collection, acquired before 1989. - Antiochus (324-261 BC, King of the Asian Diadochian Empire since 281) fell ill because of his secret love for his young stepmother Stratonike, which the personal doctor realizes. Thereupon his father, King Seleucus, generously leaves his wife to him. (Plutarch 43, 38). Johann Georg Platzer, one of the most important painters of the Viennese late baroque or rococo, quickly established himself in the Viennese society, the nobility and at the imperial court with his very detailed and miniature-like historical, social and conversation scenes. The present, extremely characteristic painting, excellently shows Platzer's artistry in placing tension-laden and very figurative compositions in front of an architectural backdrop in bright and expressive colours, so that, despite the abundance, the inner compositional arrangement is immediately understandable and the beholder's eye is given a constant new discovery. The copper ground, most often chosen by Platzer, enabled him to achieve a brightness of the colours and gradations of tones that give the surfaces an almost enamelled appearance. With an expert report by Dr. Christina Pucher, 2015. She describes the present painting as an "outstanding work", to which she certifies "highest artistic virtuosity and quality" as well as an "excellent state of preservation". The painting will be included in the catalogue raisonné, which is in preparation.
