Gaspar van Wittel, genannt "Gaspare Vanvitelli", 1653 Amersfoort bei Utrecht – 1736 RomFLORENZANSICHT VOM UFER DES ARNO – PESCAIA DI SAN NICOLOÖl auf Leinwand, auf original Spannrahmen.42 x 53 cm.Links unten mittig signiert „G.V.W.“, verso alte Beschriftung sowie rotes Lacksiegel auf der Leinwand.Das Bildsujet gehört zu den Seltenheiten bekannter Florenzansichten. Aus leicht erhöhter Kavaliersperspektive wird hier der Blick vom jenseitigen Ufer des Arno über den Fluss hinweg auf die mit Mauern und Türmen befestigte Hügelerhebung der Stadt Florenz geboten. Als Repoussoir fungiert rechts eine hohe Pinie vor einer verschatteten Gebäudegruppe mit Turm. Im tieferliegenden Vordergrund zahlreiche Figurenstaffage – Arbeiter mit Maultieren, ein Wasserträger und Fischer in Kähnen mit Netzen. Die jenseitige Uferbebauung hinter einem festen Mauerring. Die Silhouette des Stadthügels wird von einem Streifen rötlichen Abendlichts hinterfangen, unter noch blauem Wolkenhimmel. A.R.Der Maler, dessen Werk überwiegend in Italien entstand, erhielt seine Ausbildung noch in den Niederlanden. Doch 22-jährig war er bereits in Rom beim Bau der Flussregulierung des Tibers beschäftigt. Wie sein als Architekt in Neapel berühmt gewordener Sohn Luigi war also auch er mit stadtarchitektonischen Aufgaben befasst. Dies erklärt auch die in vorliegendem Gemälde erkennbare Dokumentierung der Stadtbefestigung von Florenz. Das bedeutet, dass die Darstellung weit weniger dem touristischen Interesse galt, als andere von ihm bekannten Veduten, wie etwa von Rom, Neapel oder Venedig. Auch die Exaktheit der Detailwiedergabe resultiert aus seiner Kenntnis der Architektur. Ab 1700 wirkte er längere Zeit in Neapel, wo auch sein Sohn Luigi geboren wurde. Die letzten Jahre verbrachte er allerdings überwiegend in Rom, jener Stadt, in der er bereits der gefragteste Vedutenmaler für die Adelshäuser der Colonna, Ottoboni, Albani oder Odescalchi war, deren Villen und Paläste er in Ölbildern dokumentierte. In der Kunstgeschichte wurde sein Werk lange nicht genügend beachtet. Erst eine erste Ausstellung seiner Bilder im Museo Correr in Venedig, 2006, hat die Bedeutung des Malers zu würdigen verholfen.Literatur:Maestro Van Wittel.

Ella Kowalska M is for Mother, 2024 Photographic print on paper Signed on Verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About Ella Kowalska is a photographer who practices street, documentary, and art photography. In her photography work she is particularly sensitive to the colours, materials, and sounds that give the world its texture, and she seeks to achieve the right balance between realism and fantasy. She is driven by the desire to give an account of our times and searches for a form of 'augmented reality' able to tell our modernity. Her Polish upbringing was marked by a culture that calls for absurdity and irrationality and sublimes the beauty and profoundness in the unreasonable and extravagant. It's in this distorted reality, which could sometimes seem more real than the reality itself, and in its astonishing connections that she feels at home.

Lisa Golightly Red Boat, 2024 Acrylic on paper Signed on Verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About Lisa Golightly strives to capture the essence of fleeting moments and the emotional landscapes of everyday life. Her paintings are an exploration of the intersection between memory and perception. Using vibrant colors and expressive brushwork, she creates a dialogue between abstraction and representation, inviting viewers to engage with and relate to their own memories and experiences. Found photographs and more recently 8mm home movies work as a starting point to her paintings. She is fascinated by the intricacies of relationships, the interplay of light and shadow, and the beauty found in imperfection. Each painting serves as a practice in storytelling, where layers of paint mimic the layers of our experiences, capturing the complexity of our emotions. Embracing a process-oriented approach to painting, she allows intuition to guide her hand. This spontaneity not only infuses her work with energy but also mirrors the unpredictability of life itself. Ultimately, the goal of the work is to create a sense of connection-to evoke introspection, longing, and sometimes sadness that resonates with others.

Lisa Golightly Green Boat, 2024 Acrylic on paper Signed on Verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About Lisa Golightly strives to capture the essence of fleeting moments and the emotional landscapes of everyday life. Her paintings are an exploration of the intersection between memory and perception. Using vibrant colors and expressive brushwork, she creates a dialogue between abstraction and representation, inviting viewers to engage with and relate to their own memories and experiences. Found photographs and more recently 8mm home movies work as a starting point to her paintings. She is fascinated by the intricacies of relationships, the interplay of light and shadow, and the beauty found in imperfection. Each painting serves as a practice in storytelling, where layers of paint mimic the layers of our experiences, capturing the complexity of our emotions. Embracing a process-oriented approach to painting, she allows intuition to guide her hand. This spontaneity not only infuses her work with energy but also mirrors the unpredictability of life itself. Ultimately, the goal of the work is to create a sense of connection-to evoke introspection, longing, and sometimes sadness that resonates with others.

Ella Kowalska Yellow, 2024 Photographic print on paper Signed on Verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About Ella Kowalska is a photographer who practices street, documentary, and art photography. In her photography work she is particularly sensitive to the colours, materials, and sounds that give the world its texture, and she seeks to achieve the right balance between realism and fantasy. She is driven by the desire to give an account of our times and searches for a form of 'augmented reality' able to tell our modernity. Her Polish upbringing was marked by a culture that calls for absurdity and irrationality and sublimes the beauty and profoundness in the unreasonable and extravagant. It's in this distorted reality, which could sometimes seem more real than the reality itself, and in its astonishing connections that she feels at home.

* FRED YATES (BRITISH 1922 - 2008), THE PAVILLION oil on canvas, signed versoframed image size 41cm x 51cm, overall size 46cm x 55cm Provenance: The artist's estate, estate label verso. Note: Fred Yates was a self-taught British artist, known for his plein-air paintings of the English landscape. Influenced by so-called naïve art and the work of L S Lowry, Yates' work incorporated bold colours, loose brushwork, and child-like abstractions. Often, he layered paint on top of the canvas to create a thick, textured surface, giving his paintings a sculptural quality. Born on July 25, 1922 in Urmston, England, Yates fought in the Second World War alongside his twin brother, who was killed at the Battle of Arnheim. After the war, he began painting the Manchester cityscape in his free time and became well known in the local art scene, working alongside painter Lowry. Yates moved to Cornwall in 1968, where he began painting rocky beach landscapes and scenes of village life. He gained national attention after presenting his work at the 1985 exhibition “St Ives 1939– 64” at the Tate Gallery in London. A decade later, the artist moved to Rancon, France, painting the local landscape for the remainder of his artistic career. Yates died on July 7, 2008 in England at the age of 85. His work is held in the collections of the Brighton and Hove Art Gallery, Liverpool University, and the University of Warwick.

Princess Mary (1631-60), the 9-year old eldest daughter of Charles I, was married to Prince William II of Orange, then aged 14, in May 1641 but, by the terms of the marriage contract, she was expected to remain in England until the age of 12. However, the increasingly serious political situation in England forced the royal family to move to Hampton Court and, in February 1642, Mary and her mother, Henrietta Maria, left for The Hague. Mary would only end up spending a few years in the Netherlands with her husband before he died of smallpox in November 1650, and only eight days after losing him did she give birth to the future king of England, William III of Orange. She gave great support to her older brother, the future Charles II, while he was in exile and was an avid supporter of the restoration of the monarchy; however, this made her increasingly unpopular in the Netherlands, as did her strained relationship with her mother-in-law, Amalia of Solms-Braunfels (1602-75), who thought the princess young and inexperienced. At the restoration of the English monarchy in 1660 Mary returned to London for celebrations, but contracted smallpox and died on Christmas Eve
