The Knight is an original painting realized by Pietro della Vecchia during the XVII century. Oil on board. Original title: Ritratto di giovane cavaliere con cappello piumato. Includes the contemporary frame Salvator Rosa with three orders of carving. The boy in the painting is the same model as that of the painting Giovinezza e vecchiaia (private collection). Pietro della Vecchia (Venice, 1603 – Vicenza, 1678) studied with Alessandro Varotari (Il Padovanino), from whom he inherited the interest in Venetian paintings of the sixteenth century, in particular, those of Titian and Giorgione. Recognized for his skills used to reproduce the style of the masters of the sixteenth century, he is also well-known as a painter of genre scenes and portraits. As an official painter of the Republic of Venice, he was commissioned to produce the cardboards of the mosaics for the Basilica of San Marco. When the artist died in 1678, he was buried in San Canciano church in Venice. This artwork is shipped from Italy. Under existing legislation, any artwork in Italy created over 70 years ago by an artist who has died requires a licence for export regardless of the work’s market price.

This is a coloured technical drawing of a Portuguese Caravela of the XV-XVI century. I have also drawn a compass rose in the style typically seen on the navigational charts of early explorers. These would have served primarily as a decorative feature and have provided an artistic flourish to what was essentially a scientific and utilitarian document. This particular compass rose is similar to those drawn by the cartographer, João Teixeira Albernas in the XVII century. As an avid historian, I personally conduct extensive research and go to great lengths by using available archaeological, pictorial and written evidence in order to ensure that each drawing is as true and honest a reflection as possible of the actual ship. My drawings are genuinely hand drawn and convey a quality and depth of character which is absent on design software. I have used mechanical pencils to draw the detail in the rigging, the sails and the hull and then subsequently used colour pencils to add colour and shade for the final effect. I have used the same process for drawing the compass rose. This particular drawing took me approximately five hours to complete and is drawn on an A3 sheet of high quality cartridge paper. It can also be purchased in an A3 mounted frame as listed. The caravela played a key role in the early voyages of maritime exploration. The caravela’s sturdy build and lateen sails proved well suited to the rough seas and contrary winds encountered by the early explorers who navigated their way southward along the African coast and beyond. The caravela in this drawing is typical of those early vessels that discovered the Atlantic islands of the Azores, Madeira and the Canary Islands, and explored the western coast of Africa during the 15th century. As mentioned above, the caravela was ideally suited to tackle the rough seas and contrary winds thanks to their sturdy build and lateen sails which allowed them to sail against the wind. They also had the advantage of having a low draught which permitted them to explore the African interior by sailing upriver. It was with vessels such as these that Portuguese sailors were able to establish sub-Saharan Afro-European relations and the first overseas empire in the 16th century.

Circle of PETER PAUL RUBENS (Siegen, Germany, 1577 - Antwerp, Belgium, 1640) "Portrait of Isabella of Bourbon". Oil on canvas. Relined old. It has adapted Spanish frame of the XVII century. Measurements: 128 x 94 cm; 155 x 120 cm. A monumental lady stars in this portrait in an imposing and emphatic way. The woman is shown before the spectator in a regal way, dressed in rich and elegant clothes, adorned with the famous pilgrim pearl which hangs from a wide pearl necklace. This characteristic, added to the fact that the face of the lady is clearly identifiable, indicates that it is the portrait of Queen Isabella of Bourbon, daughter of Henry IV of France and Maria de Medici and wife of the future Philip IV. Aesthetically the piece is largely reminiscent of the portrait that belongs to the Royal Palace collection, which was made by Rubens, although it should be noted that the original model of this painting is lost and is only known through copies. The original, made around 1628, had the same composition, with the monarch standing holding a fan and a handkerchief, placed in front of a large curtain as can be seen in this work. It is the workmanship of this portrait that brings the work closer to the artistic circle of the master Rubens. The delicate details of the dress, the volume and the shadows that are configured through the treatment of the fabrics, the perfect anatomy with a slight elongation of the hands that brings lightness and the volume of the face framed in a large ruff are examples of the quality of the author of this painting. Peter Paul Rubens was a painter of the Flemish school who, however, competed on equal terms with contemporary Italian artists, and enjoyed a very important international importance, since his influence was also key in other schools, as is the case of the transition to full baroque in Spain. Although born in Westphalia, Rubens grew up in Antwerp, where his family originated.Rubens had three teachers, the first being Tobias Verhaecht, a painter of precise and meticulous technique who had traveled to Italy, and who instilled in the young painter the first artistic rudiments. It is also possible that Rubens traveled to Italy influenced by this first master. The second was Adam van Noort, a Romanist painter also oriented towards the Italian influence, with a language still Mannerist, and who must also have influenced the young man to visit Italy. Finally, his third teacher was Otto van Veen, the most outstanding and the last of them. After his training, Rubens joined the Antwerp painters' guild in 1598. Only two years later he made a trip to Italy, where he remained between 1600 and 1608, and in 1609 he returned to the Netherlands, in the service of the governors of Flanders, Archduke Albert and the Infanta Isabella Clara Eugenia. In addition to being a chamber painter, Rubens will exercise diplomatic tasks for the court that will take him to visit Spain, London and Paris. In 1609 he married Isabel Brant in Antwerp and organized his workshop, hiring excellent collaborators, with whom he worked side by side, many of them being specialist painters (Frans Snyders, Jan Brueghel de Velours...). He will also welcome disciples and will create an excellent workshop of engravers, who will work from drawings of his own hand, and under his supervision.
