Wenceslas Cifka (Tscheraditz, Bohemia, then Austrian Empire, 1811 - Lisbon, 1884)“Portrait of Queen Mary II of England, in royal attire.”Painted in enamel on copper. Signed and titled on the back.20 x 17 cm.Based on the engraving published circa 1689-1694 by Peter Vanderbank (Vandrebanc) after the painting by Sir Godfrey Kneller Bt, kept in the National Portrait Gallery (reference no. NPG D32780).Wenceslau Cifka, also known as Václav Cífka, a versatile artist, arrived in Portugal in 1836 on the occasion of the marriage of Ferdinand of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha to Queen Maria II. He established himself mainly as a landscape painter at the Portuguese royal court.Gifted in the arts, and under Ferdinand's influence, he became a regular at auctions, acquiring important collections for the king's gallery. However, it was above all as an artist that he made his greatest contribution to Portugal. As a draftsman, lithographer, photographer, painter, ceramist and enameler, he left remarkable ceramic pieces and very special lithographs and enamels. He was one of the pioneers of photography in Portugal. He was also a pioneer of photographic techniques, he started using the daguerreotype in the 1840s and set up his studio at Rua Direita das Necessidades, nº 31 in Lisbon.He is the photographer of the first photographs of members of the royal family, who until then had only been portrayed by painters, starting with Ferdinand II, father of Pedro V.He is considered to be the first publisher of stereoscopic views in Portugal. Among his disciples were Carlos Relvas, Francisco Augusto Gomes and João Paulo Cordeiro Júnior. He was appointed photographer to the Royal Household and traveled around Europe with the King, specifically in 1854, to update and perfect his techniques in London, Paris and Berlin. As a friend and protector, King Ferdinand acquired most of his work and is represented in much of it, whether in photography or ceramics. His love of ceramics led Cifka to devote himself almost exclusively to artistic earthenware. At the end of his career he joined the Constância ceramics factory, where he specialized in glazes and ceramics. He participated in several exhibitions, at the Lisbon Industrial Exhibition in 1849, at the Philanthropic Exhibition of the Arsenal of the Navy in 1851, at the Paris Universal Exhibition in 1867 and 1878, among others. He was awarded the Gold Medal at the Portuguese Exhibition in Rio de Janeiro in 1879. He held several royal posts, among them that of Photographer of the Royal Household in 1855, Reporter of the Royal Chamber in 1859 and was named Knight of the Order of Christ in 1864. After his death, the artist's work was auctioned by his son Fernando Augusto Cifka and dispersed among private collections and institutions. A catalog was published for the occasion “ Leilão das Collecções de Gravuras, Livros ilustrados, Louças de faiança e da China, India, etc., etc., do fallecido Sr. Wenceslau Cifka, na Rua 24 de Julho 460, 1º andar (Aterro) a começar em 26 de Junho de 1884. Lisboa”.In the 20th century, there have been several exhibitions dedicated to Cífka held in Portugal, among which we highlight:“Wenceslau Cifka. Ceramist, Lithographer and Enameller”, 1949, National Palace of Pena in Sintra, Portugal. Edited catalog.“9ª Exposição Temporária. Desenhos do Album Cifka”, 1948, Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga. Lisbon.

Lot 165

Attributed to Angelino Medoro (Rome, circa 1565 - Seville, 1632)"Our Lady of Silence" Oil on copper. With a chased and embossed silver 18th century frame.23 x 19 cm.  Frame measurements: 54,5 x 38 cm. Italian painter who settled in the Viceroyalty of Peru, via Spain. His art was especially influential in that territory, fundamentally in the painting of Cuzco.In 1587 he moved to Santafé where he painted a Virgin of Antigua for the church of Santo Domingo, which was characterized by having a Sevillian style and being accompanied by figures such as San Francisco and the donors Diego Hernández Hervalle and his wife Polonia de Roa. It is one of the first portraits painted in New Granada, a fact that gives it immense value for the history of Colombian art, as noted by the Royal Academy of History. In addition, other important works are attributed to him, such as a Descent from the Cross, inspired by a painting by Pedro Pablo Rubens, and a Lamentation, which belong to the Convent of Santo Domingo de Tunja. He also painted a penitent Mary Magdalene for the church of San Francisco and was master of Fray Pedro Bedón in Tunja. In 1598 he finished his paintings for the chapel of Mancipe and in 1599 he moved to Cali, where he made works for the Franciscans, such as a San Antonio de Padua and a sculpture of Nuestra Señora del Socorro.In 1600, he traveled to Lima, where he made several paintings, including a Señor de la Columna and works for the chapel of the Ánimas in the cathedral.He taught in Lima in 1604 and was appointed painter to the Inquisition. In 1617 he painted the Portrait of Isabel Torres de Oliva, known as Santa Rosa de Lima. After being widowed, Medoro remarried María de Mesta y Pareja. He made several paintings for the Mercedarian Fathers and the Augustinians, some of which are still preserved. In 1623, he painted a Santa Margarita which is now in Bogotá. In 1629, he returned to Spain and settled in Seville. Despite being around seventy years old, he was still examined as a painter. He made a will in 1631 and died on February 22 of the following year. It also has a significant value another portrait made in Lima in 1617, “Portrait of Isabel Torres de Oliva”, who was the first saint of America, Santa Rosa de Lima. “It was widely disseminated not only in the American continent but even in Europe, through engraving.” Reference bibliography:- Fajardo de Rueda, Marta (n.d.).
