Death of Cleopatra, oil on canvas, Italy, 17th-18th centuries.

8000,00 zł
The painting depicts Cleopatra at the moment of her suicide, shown in half pose, wearing a red, unbuttoned dress with her breasts exposed and a serpent held to her chest - the only attribute that allows clear identification of the scene. The woman, with her alabaster complexion, raised head and upward gaze, is framed against a neutral, dark brown background, in keeping with the tradition of the Bolognese school. The soft chiaroscuro, idealized type of beauty and calm expression point to the influence of painting derived from the circle of Guido Reni and his continuators. The final fragment of the signature "...epolo" or "...epelo" is visible in the lower left corner, indicating the artist's Italian origin. An analysis of the style and the way the figure is depicted allows dating the work to the 17th-18th century, with a probable place of creation in Emilia-Romagna (Italy). The painting is framed in a Baroque frame carved in wood and painted gold.

John Baptist Lambrechts (1680 – after 1731), Genre scene in an inn, oil on board, ca. mid-18th century.

,
3500,00 zł
An intimate genre scene, attributed to Flemish painter John Baptist Lambrechts. The center of the depiction is formed by three figures: a woman in a red skirt and green kaftan with a distinctive white scarf around her neck, a man in a red cap and a woman standing behind, who participates in the conversation. Next to her stands a set table, covered with a colorful cloth, on which the white shawl - a hallmark of inn scenes by Lambrechts - could not be missing. A gesticulating man addresses a woman who, with a glass in her hand, looks calmly at the viewer. On her shoulders is a white shawl tied over her breasts: an element characteristic of Lambrechts' painting, present in almost all his depictions of women. The painting betrays the characteristics of a good painter's workshop such as skillfully developed chiaroscuro, the way of depicting the details of fabrics and tableware attest to the artist's technical maturity. The composition is static, but full of subtle emotional tensions.

3500,00 zł
An intimate oil painting on board attributed to Jan Baptist Lambrechts, a leading painter of genre scenes of 18th-century Flanders. The composition shows a couple in an inn: the woman turns to the man reproachfully, the man looks away, holding a jug and a glass. The scene alludes to everyday domestic tensions and the problem of alcohol abuse. The painting is distinguished by realistic social observation, the play of light and the artist's characteristic details like a plate with clamshells and a white scarf. The subject matter and style are perfectly in line with the trend of moralistic bourgeois painting popular in Flanders.

Pieter Neefs II (1620 – 1675/1685), Night Mass in a Gothic Church, oil on board, Flanders, 17th century.

,
3600,00 zł

The painting depicts the interior of a Gothic church, by Pieter Neefs the Younger (1620-after 1675), a Flemish painter who specialized in depictions of sacred interiors of the 17th century. The composition based on a precise linear perspective leads the eye towards the main altar, around which the faithful and clergy participating in the liturgy are gathered.

The painting was made in oil technique on board, without a visible signature. The upper part of the composition has been cropped, resulting in the loss of the original format and probably also the author's signature.

The work represents the mature style of Pieter Neefs the Younger - precise rendering of space, controlled light and realistic depiction of architecture, characteristic of the Antwerp school. Paintings of almost identical composition appear in several well-known collections and collections - including the Szépművészeti Múzeum (Museum of Fine Arts) in Budapest and a Sotheby's auction (2021).

It is worth mentioning that works from this series are also sometimes attributed to Pieter Neefs the Elder (c. 1578-1656), confirming the strong stylistic affinity between the works of father and son.
