About the Item

17th-century Flemish oil on copper painting depicting a landscape view with figures, a work that can be placed in the circle of the painter Cornelius de Wael (Antwerp 1592 - Rome 1667), depicting a genre scene with a multitude of crowded characters in a street with classical architecture in the background. On the left side of the composition, on a stage in front of a portal decorated with bas-reliefs, six figures of theatricals, actors in the commedia dell'arte: a dentist at work on a patient, a proclaiming gentleman, a lady, a child, and a masked histrion. Below the stage, in the audience, a multitude of passers-by, characters immersed in a wide variety of scenes of everyday activities, distinguished from each other according to the usual Flemish realism; vendors, dogs and a cart pulling a horse enrich the scenery of this cross-section of life. This detailed antique painting can be placed in the circle of Cornelius de Wael (Antwerp 1592 - Rome 1667) Small in size, it succeeds in depicting a genre scene dense with characters, composed of more than forty figures that crowd this Flemish-origin representation with great realism and attention to detail; the work comes from a private collection, is unsigned and is in good state of preservation, consistent with the date; it is presented within a modern guilloché frame in ebonized wood. The painting on copper only measures 15 x 23 cm. To export an antique art object from Italy, an export license called BELLE ARTI must be applied for from the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage. the issuance of such a government license takes a couple of weeks or so, to be added to the order's shipping time.
