CARRACCI, ANNIBALE CARRACCI, ANNIBALE (vor) 1560 Bologna - 1609 Rom Titel: Studienkopf eines jungen Mannes. Technik: Öl auf Leinwand. Montierung: Doubliert. Maße: 35,5 x 26,5cm. Rahmen/Sockel: Rahmen. Gutachten: John T. Spike, Florenz, nach Begutachtung des Originals am 26.05.1997; D. Stephen Pepper, Florenz, nach Begutachtung des Originals am 19.09.1997. Literatur: D. S. Pepper, Annibale Carracci's Venetian portraits, in: Arte documento, 13, 1999, S. 200. Proveniez: Privatbesitz, Italien. Das vorliegende Portrait wurde 1999 von D. Stephen Pepper als Originalarbeit von Annibale Carracci veröffentlicht in einem Artikel, der über die von der venezianischen Malerei inspirierten (Kopf)Studien berichtet. Das Portrait eines jungen Mannes gilt als typisches Beispiel für Tizians Einfluss, von dem Caracci einige Werke anlässlich seines Aufenthaltes in Venedig 1587-88 kopiert hat: satte Farben, frische und freie Pinselstriche sowie die Haltung des Dargestellten. Erläuterungen zum Katalog Annibale Carracci Italien Barock 16.Jh. Originale Porträt Studie CARRACCI, ANNIBALE CARRACCI, ANNIBALE (before) 1560 Bologna - 1609 Rome Title: Study Head of a Young Man.

Provenance: Private ownership, Italy. The present portrait was published in 1999 by D. Stephen Pepper as an original work by Annibale Carracci in an article that reports on the (head) studies inspired by Venetian painting. The portrait of a young man is considered a typical example of Titian's influence, from which Caracci copied some works during his stay in Venice in 1587-88: rich colours, fresh and free brushstrokes and the sitter's posture.

REMBRANDT VAN RIJN REMBRANDT VAN RIJN 1606 Leiden - 1669 Amsterdam Umkreis Titel: Brustbild eins bärtigen Mannes. Technik: Öl auf Holz. Maße: 19 x 17cm. Rahmen/Sockel: Rahmen. Rückseitig: Auf der Tafel Reste eines alten Sammlungssiegels sowie Schlagmarke. Vgl. Literatur: E.v.d. Wetering: Rembrandts Paintings Revisited. Dordrecht 2017, S. 58, Abb. 16. Provenienz: Privatbesitz, Deutschland. Das Gemälde wurde im September 2020 im Labor für kunsttechnologische Untersuchungen der TH Köln mittels einer Röntgenfluoreszenzanalyse untersucht. Auffällig dabei sind neben den ab dem 17. Jahrhundert üblichen Pigmenten auch die Verwendung von Zink, Chrom und Kadmium in geringen Mengen, was zumindest auf Restaurierungen nach etwa 1840 schließen lässt und daher keinen Aufschluss über die Entstehungszeit der Malerei gibt. Eine sehr vergleichbare Kopfstudie ist auch in der Datenbank des RKD, Den Haag, unter der Abb.Nr. 232219 verzeichnet. Diese Tafel, die einem Nachfolger Rembrandts zugeschrieben wird, befindet sich in der Sammlung des Philadelphia Museums. Insgesamt sind inzwischen mindestens sieben Version dieser Tronie bekannt, von denen eine 2018 bei VAN HAM versteigert wurde. Die Darstellung dieses Charakterkopfs eines bärtigen Mannes ist als Tronie aus der Werkstatt Rembrandts bekannt und dürfte sowohl als Studienkopf für Schüler als auch als Vorlage zu Gemälden gedient haben. So bewahrt das Budapester Museum z.B. eine Rembrandt und seinem Schüler Gerrit Dou zugeschriebene Tafel mit dem Gleichnis vom Schatz im Acker, bei dem die Physiognomie des Dargestellten auf diesen Kopf zurückgeht. Wir danken Fred G. Meijer, Amsterdam, sowie David de Witt vom Rembrandthuis in Amsterdam für ihre freundliche Unterstützung bei der Katalogisierung des vorliegenden Gemäldes. Erläuterungen zum Katalog Rembrandt van Rijn Niederlande Niederländische Schule 17.Jh. Originale Porträt Studie REMBRANDT VAN RIJN REMBRANDT VAN RIJN 1606 Leiden - 1669 Amsterdam Circle Title: Bust of a Bearded Man. Technique: Oil on wood. Measurement: 19 x 17cm. Frame/Pedestal: Framed. Verso: On the plate remains of an old collection seal and striking mark. Cf. Literature: E.v.d. Wetering: Rembrandts Paintings Revisited. Dordrecht 2017, p. 58, ill. 16. Provenance: Private ownership, Germany. The painting was examined in September 2020 in the Laboratory for Art Technological Investigations of the Technical University of Cologne by means of an X-ray fluorescence analysis. In addition to the pigments commonly used from the 17th century onwards, the use of zinc, chromium and cadmium in small quantities is noticeable, which at least suggests restorations after about 1840 and therefore provides no information about the time of origin of the painting. A very comparable head study is also listed in the database of the RKD, The Hague, under ill. no. 232219. This panel, which is attributed to a successor of Rembrandt, is in the collection of the Philadelphia Museum. A total of at least seven versions of this tronie are now known, one of which was auctioned at VAN HAM in 2018. The depiction of this character head of a bearded man is known as the tronie from Rembrandt's workshop and may have served both as a study head for students and as a model for paintings. For example, the Budapest Museum has a panel attributed to Rembrandt and his pupil Gerrit Dou with the parable of the Treasure in the Field, in which the sitter's physiognomy is based on this head. We are grateful to Fred G. Meijer, Amsterdam, and David de Witt of the Rembrandthuis in Amsterdam for their kind support in cataloguing the present painting.

SIR JOHN LAVERY RA RSA RHA (IRISH/BRITISH 1856 - 1941), SKETCH, THE HOSPITABLE GATE oil on panel, signed, titled and dated '86 26.5cm x 40.5cm Framed Provenance: Sotheby's, London, 22 July 1987. lot 150. Sotheby's, London, 6 May 2010, lot 4. Note: John Lavery was welcomed as a celebrity by collectors in Paisley after his return from France at the end of 1884. They were impressed by avant-garde ambitions expressed in large canvases such as On the Loing, An Afternoon Chat, (Ulster Museum, Belfast), shown at the Glasgow Institute of Fine Arts in February 1885. Although he established a studio in Glasgow, these wealthy middle-class local worthies were keen to retain his services. The wool and cotton manufacturer, James Fulton, for instance, offered Lavery a cottage/studio, close to his baronial mansion on his estate at The Glen, Paisley, while the artist produced portraits of members of his family. William MacKean, a soap manufacturer and the town’s Provost also provided portrait commissions and some of these are likely to have been shown at the artist’s first solo exhibition at the George A. Clark Town Hall at the end of November 1886. This grand edifice was funded four years earlier by the Clark family, owners of Anchor Mills, one of Paisley’s principal employers, who were also Lavery patrons. No catalogue for Lavery’s first show is known to be in existence, but he advertised it as ‘Portraits, Pictures & Sketches painted in the Neighbourhood’. We may however assume that in addition to views of The Glen, and smaller pictures painted in the garden of the MacBrides’ house at nearby Cathcart, where Lavery had worked on his most famous canvas, The Tennis Party, (Aberdeen Art Gallery), the exhibition also contained sketches like that of the ‘Hospitable Gate’. An earlier street scene, Lady on a Safety Tricycle 1885, (Government Art Collection), is however thought to be an entrance to Cartbank. This tentative watercolour lacks the bold handling, vivid realization and atmospheric qualities of Sketch of The Hospitable Gate. The swift notation and autumnal palette of this suburban street scene indicates that it was painted shortly before Lavery’s exhibition opened. Although there is little detail of the house, it is possible that it represents Chapel House in Ardgowan Street, Paisley - then on the fringe of the Blackhall Estate and the river White Cart Water. In the 1880s this four-square Georgian house on a leafy lane, was owned by James Clark, one of the brothers who inherited Anchor Mills. The building’s square façade, its placing in relation to the street, and the shallow pitch to its roof, suggests that the ‘hospitable gate’ could lead to just such a house.
