Cornelis Van Cleve (et Atelier) (1527-Antwerp circa 1581) Adoration des Mages Oil on panel 101.5 x 77.5 cm Fils et élève du grand Maître Anversois Joos van Cleve (1485-1541), il a sans doute été très actif au sein de l’atelier paternel entre 1535 et 1540. Son style se rapprochant de celui de son père, il est encore difficile aujourd'hui pour certaines œuvres, de discerner la main du père de celle du fils. Maître à Anvers, il est doyen de la Gilde en 1541 au décès de Joos. Son caractère ombrageux et ses affinités protestantes le font quitter sa ville natale et émigrer en Angleterre où il recherche le patronage de Philippe II d’Espagne. Ses peintures sophistiquées et délicates témoignent aussi de l’influence de Léonard de Vinci. Cette composition dérive du tableau de Cornelis van Cleve aujourd’hui conservé au Musée des beaux-arts d’Anvers. MUSÉES: ANVERS, COLOGNE, DRESDE, PHILADELPHIE, ST P

johann joachim kaendler (1706-1775)
Johann Joachim Kaendler (Germany, 1706-1775) A pair of swans Porcelain models circa 1748, Meissen manufacture and decoration, circa 1750-1755 H 27.5 x W 23 cm and H 26.5 x W 22 cm Cobalt blue crossed swords mark Provenance: private collection With their majestic figure, swans were still considered royal animals in the eighteenth century and were modelled several times in the Meissen manufactory as table decorations, especially in connection with table fountains. They are also mentioned in the 1753 confectionery inventory of Count von Brühl, the Prime Minister of Saxony. In their timeless elegance, they may be seen as a design by the famous Meissen modeller Johann Joachim Kaendler, which he produced in porcelain together with his assistant Peter Reinicke around 1750. The minimalistic decoration of the reeds in a turquoise-green on-glaze colour suggests an early artistic style.

nicolas bertin
Nicolas Bertin (Paris, 1668-1736) Achilles entrusted by Thetis to the centaur Chiron, circa 1725 Oil on canvas 62 x 79.5 cm Provenance: private collection, Paris Literature: Thierry Lefrançois, Nicolas Bertin, 1668-1736, Paris, 1981 Nicolas Bertin has begun his career as a painter under the reign of Louis XIV and has ended it under Louis XV. He was part of this pivotal generation of 'Trianon painters' who switched from large historical painting, to smaller pictures – frequently easel paintings, which seduced a new generation of clients. Painting in the early years of the 18th century was ahead of the evolution of society, and it was only during the Regency that France freed itself from the rigorous artistic rules of the end of the reign of Louis XIV. The country undertook reforms and its morals evolved. It was just after this political and artistic revolution that Bertin painted this picture. The choice of theme itself is significant of lighter times: the nymph Thetis entrusts her son Achilles to the centaur Chiron.
