After the antique, Chiurazzi Foundry (Attributed to) Naples, second half of the 19th century Bronze head of a man (possibly Dionysus) Bronze on original Rosso Antico marble socle H 70 cm Provenance: private collection at Chateau De Pesselières, France Literature: Fonderia Chiurazzi, Napoli, catalogue n° 1 'Dionisio o Platone-Bronzo da Ercolano 1741' A finely cast bronze by the Chiurazzi Foundry, Naples, after the celebrated antique excavated at Herculaneum in 1741 and now preserved in the Museo Nazionale di Napoli (inv. 5618). The model is recorded in the Chiurazzi Foundry catalogue as 'n° 1 - Dionisio o Platone - Bronzo da Ercolano 1741', indicating both the foundry’s internal model number and the Naples museum inventory of the original. The figure’s soft modelling, elaborate curls and bound taenia are characteristic of Hellenistic representations of Dionysus, though early scholars, struck by the introspective expression, also proposed identifications with Plato or other philosophers. Modern scholarship accepts the Dionysian attribution. Chiurazzi held exclusive rights to reproduce works from the Naples collections, issuing casts directly from museum models for export to collectors and institutions across Europe and America. This example, with its even dark patination and original Rosso Antico marble socle, reflects the exceptional quality for which the foundry became renowned.

Maarten Rijckaert (Antwerp, 1587-1611) Forest landscape with hunters, 17th century Oil on panel 32.4 x 49.5 cm This beautiful painting is a typical example of Maarten Ryckaert’s talent for creating atmospheric woodland scenes. The painting presents a dense forest filled with tall trees,a river, rough terrain and rocks. Soft light filters through the branches, creating contrasts between illuminated clearings and darker shadowed areas. In the foreground, a group of hunters on the left- and rightside accompanied by dogs: their small scale compared to the towering trees highlights the dominance of nature over human activity. The hunters add a sense of narrative and movement to the otherwise peaceful setting. Ryckaert uses earthy tones such as deep greens, browns, and golden highlights to create a rich and natural atmosphere. Fine details in the foliage, rocks, and tree trunks demonstrate his close observation of nature and his skill as a landscape painter. The scene evokes both tranquility and mystery, inviting the viewer to imagine the sounds and silence of the forest. The painting reflects the Baroque interest in dramatic natural scenery while also expressing a calm, contemplative mood. Through the balance of light, composition, and detail, Ryckaert transforms an ordinary hunting scene into a poetic vision of the natural world. Maarten Ryckaert was born in Antwerp and became especially known for his imaginative woodland scenes, rocky landscapes, and peaceful rural settings filled with travelers, hunters, and small groups of figures. Ryckaert studied painting in Antwerp and was strongly influenced by earlier Flemish landscape artists such as Joos de Momper and Jan Brueghel the Elder. Unlike many painters of his time who focused on religious or historical themes, Ryckaert specialized in landscapes, giving nature the leading role in his compositions. His works often combine realism with fantasy, creating dramatic forests, winding paths, and mysterious mountainous scenery.

'Evariste Carpentier nous oblige à quitter ce coin hivernal du Brabant, pour admirer l’estival et Paisible hameau de Logne ; ceci est une page radieuse, la meilleure qu’ait signé ce maître fécond et divers. En ce site, d’un pittoresque fermement établi, l’ombre transparente des premiers plans s’opposent à l’ardent et léger ensoleillement des fonds. L’observation interprétative est accusée par la vérité des plans, obtenus par la ligne des éléments aussi bien que par les valeurs du coloris et la distribution de la lumière, qui se répète dans l’onde vive d’un ruisseau dont deux vaches suivent le bord. Une impression heureuse se dégage de cette œuvre qu’on peut considérer comme un beau poème pastoral.'
