Old Paintings From The Dutch School Of The 17th Century

Oil on canvas 157 X 167 cm with frame The works suggest attribution to Pietro Maurizio Bolckman and the studio. The works, particularly rich in detail, respectively represent a rural landscape, such as the scene of a teeming scene brought to life by merchants, blacksmiths and carpenters busy in their daily activities, and a scene that depicts a fancy coastal landscape, with a quay, boats and ships at anchor and at the quay, like the theater of a scene animated by wealthy buyers, merchants and fishermen absorbed in their daily activities. The style with which the characters are drawn and the tasty genre scenes perfectly express the style of the master. The figures appear typical of the repertoire of the Dutch painter, where the influence of the Bamboccianti school learned during his stay in Rome is evident. The depicted landscape also denotes great precision and an abundance of detail with which the representations of the characters are rendered, meticulously described and pleasing to the smallest detail. The work is completed by a precious contemporary frame in carved and gilded wood Pietro Maurizio Bolckman (Gorinchem, 1640 - Turin, 1710), Dutch in origin but active mainly in Italy during the second half of the 17th century, first in Rome , then in Genoa and finally, from 1679, in Turin.
