William James, tätig 1730 – 1780 DAS MARKUSBECKEN ZUM KAI HIN MIT DER KIRCHE SANTA MARIA DELLA SALUTE Öl auf Leinwand. Doubliert. 76 x 127 cm. In vergoldetem Rahmen.Beigegeben eine Expertise von Dario Succi, Goriza, in Kopie vorliegend. Weite Panoramaansicht von Venedig mit Blick in Richtung der Punta della Dogana auf die breite, von zahlreichen Figuren bevölkerte Uferanlage und ankernden Gondeln im schimmernden Wasser. Rechtsseitig die Piazzetta mit der Sankt Theodor Säule, die Bibliothek, die Münzanstalt und die ehemaligen Getreidelager (die Anfang des 19. Jahrhunderts abgerissen wurden, um Platz für die Gärten zu schaffen). Im Hintergrund sind der Fontego della Farina, der Glockenturm der Kirche Santa Maria della Carità, die Basilica della Salute und die Punta della Dogana zu sehen. Die Insel San Giorgio erscheint am linken Rand und ist als eine „skurrile“ Einfügung zu betrachten, da der architektonische Komplex von Palladio von dem gewählten Standpunkt aus nicht sichtbar ist. Figuren- und detailreiche Malerei unter hohem Himmel. Das Gemälde scheint mit einigen Änderungen auf der entsprechenden Radierung von Antonio Visentini (1688-1782) zu beruhen, die als Tafel 12 zum zweiten Teil der 36 Blätter umfassenden Serie „Urbis Venetiarum Prospecuts Celebiores“ gehört, die 1742 von dem venezianischen Verleger Giambattista Pasquali veröffentlicht wurde. Der Stich wiederum ist von dem Gemälde von Canaletto (1697-1768) abgeleitet, das vom Herzog von Leeds gekauft wurde und später in die Sammlung Luigi Albertini in Rom überging und sich heute in der Pinacoteca del Castello Sforzesco in Mailand befindet. Das Gemälde, das auf die Zeit um 1770 datiert werden kann, weist alle Merkmale der Werke von William James auf: Die sichere Perspektive, die genaue Wiedergabe der architektonischen Elemente mit warmen Pigmenten, die an venezianische Vorbilder erinnernden Sprenkel, der graublau-rosa Ton des Himmels, die flüssige Oberfläche mit den typischen Wirbeln, die die wellenförmige Bewegung in der Art von Canaletto wiedergeben. Retuschen. Einen besonders aussagekräftigen stilistischen und chromatischen Vergleich bietet das Gemälde Horse Gaurds Parade from James's Park von William James, das sich im Besitz der Rafael Valls Gallery, London, befindet und 1993 in der bedeutenden Ausstellung „Canaletto & England“ in Birningham ausgestellt wurde.Anmerkung: Eine mit dem hier vorliegenden Gemälde vergleichbare Venedig-Ansicht wurde am 25.01.2008 bei Sotheby´s in London unter der Lot 425 versteigert.Biografische Angeben über den Künstler sind weitgehend unbekannt, er war jedoch zwischen etwa 1755 und 1775 in London tätig. Wie in Edward Edwards' Anedoctes of Painters, das 1808 posthum veröffentlicht wurde, bestätigt wird, war William James ein Assistent oder Schüler von Giovanni Antonio Canal (1697-1768), genannt Canaletto, während des langen Aufenthalts des venezianischen Malers in London, der - abgesehen von einer kurzen Unterbrechung im Jahr 1751 - zehn Jahre lang von 1746 bis 1756 dauerte. William James war im London des 18. Jahrhunderts ein hochgeschätzter Künstler: Einige seiner Londoner Ansichten wurden zwischen 1767 und 1771 auf der jährlichen Ausstellung der Society of Artists ausgestellt: In der Ausstellung von 1767 wurden zwei Gemälde präsentiert, die das westliche Ende der Westminster Bridge darstellten. (1301544) (18)William James,active 1730 – 1780ST. MARK’S BASIN TOWARDS THE QUAY WITH THE CHURCH OF SANTA MARIA DELLA SALUTE Oil on canvas. Relined.76 x 127cm.Accompanied by a copy of the expert’s report by Dario Succi, Gorizia. Wide panoramic view of Venice towards Punta della Dogana at the broad waterfront populated by numerous figures and gondolas moored in the shimmering water. The painting appears to be based, with some alterations, on the corresponding etching by Antonio Visentini (1688-1782), which is plate 12 of the second part of the 36-sheet series “Urbis Venetiarum Prospecuts Celebiores”, published in 1742 by the Venetian publisher Giambattista Pasquali. The engraving, in turn, is based on a painting by Canaletto (1697-1768), acquired by the Duke of Leeds and later transferred to the Luigi Albertini collection in Rome and now held at the Pinacoteca del Castello Sforzesco in Milan. The painting, which can be dated to ca. 1770, has all the hallmarks of William James’ work.Notes:A veduta of Venice comparable to the present painting was auctioned at Sotheby’s in London on 25 January 2008 under lot 425.
