J. BAUR (1607-1640), Apollo und Daphne, Etching
Est: €300 - €400
Johann Wilhelm Baur (1607 Strasbourg - 1640 Vienna): Apollo and Daphne transforming into a tree, 17th century, Etching Technique: Etching on Paper Inscription: lower left signed in the printing plate: "Baur. fc.". Date: 17th century Description: The etching shows Apollo pursuing the fleeing Daphne with outstretched arms, while her body is already transforming into a laurel tree - her arms have become branches and her foot is beginning to take root in the ground. The scene illustrates an episode from Ovid's Metamorphoses, in which Daphne, in order to escape Apollo's unwanted desire, asks her father Peneios, the river god, for help and is then transformed into a tree. The motif emphasises the classic theme of persecution, unrequited love and transformation, which has been taken up many times in the history of art.

PITTORE FIAMMINGO DEL XVII SECOLO
Est: €800 - €1,200
Festa della cuccagna al Quirinale Tempera su carta, cm 17X20,5 Il dipinto si può ricondurre al catalogo di Johann Wilhelm Baur (Strasburgo, 1607 - Vienna, 1642), in modo particolare se confrontato con la pergamena conservata alla Galleria Borghese di Roma raffigurante la Veduta di Piazza del Quirinale (tempera su pergamena, diam. cm 9,5- cfr. Busiri Vici 1957, pp. 32-33). Quest'opera fa parte di una della serie di quattro miniature raffiguranti vedute romane eseguite dall'artista intorno al 1636. La datazione si desume rapportando i dipinti con il Prospetto di Villa Borghese anch'esso appartenente alla medesima raccolta che reca la medesima data. Anche in questo caso, il taglio prospettico è insolito rispetto alla maggior parte delle immagini della piazza, con il Palazzo del Quirinale a sinistra e i gruppi scultorei dei Dioscuri visibili a destra e sul fondo il palazzo del cardinale Guido Ferrero di Vercelli, che nel Settecento fu sostituito da quello della Consulta. Per quanto riguarda l'autore, sappiamo che soggiornò a Roma e Napoli dal 1631 al 1637 e fu attivo per le principali famiglie nobili diversi, tra cui il duca di Bracciano, il marchese Giustiniani, Marcantonio Borghese e Ferdinando Colonna.

Attribué à Johann Wilhelm BAUR Strasbourg, 1607 - Vienne, 1640 Le grand escalier de la villa d'Este, Tivoli Huile sur toile The staircase of the villa d'Este, Tivoli, oil on canvas, attr. to J. W. Baur h: 40 w: 71,50 cm Provenance : Vente anonyme; New York, Christie's, 29 janvier 1999, n° 38 Commentaire : Ce nom fait rêver à travers le monde et fascina l'ensemble des artistes qui, quittant le centre de Rome, se dirigèrent vers ces montagnes dont jaillit l'eau à profusion. Les cascades et l'extraction du travertin expliquent la célébrité du site dès la plus haute Antiquité. L'empereur Hadrien y fait bâtir une villa de plaisance à la taille d'une ville et à la richesse et aux splendeurs incomparables à travers l'Empire. Amoureux du site, c'est autour de ses bassins et nymphées qu'il gouverna avec sa cour. A la Renaissance, l'eau et la fraîcheur attirèrent de grandes familles comme les Este qui firent bâtir le jardin d'eau le plus célèbre de l'histoire. Un heureux hasard fit prendre à différentes vues de ce site unique le chemin de notre maison de vente et nous pouvons grâce à cet ensemble de toiles de diverses provenances offrir un voyage à Tivoli : Balfourier exposa au Salon de 1845 la vue ci-contre (lot 107). Le riche Mécène, ami de l'empereur Auguste et protecteur des arts, fit construire une imposante villa à Tivoli vers -20 av. J.-C. Elle est ici représentée dans une nature encore totalement préservée d'où jaillissent avec force les fameuses cascades. Le même site est peint par William James Müller (lot 111) qui oriente son chevalet plus en direction du Nord mais sait retranscrire la toute-puissance de la nature et la majesté du site. Une ravissante huile sur papier (lot 108) montre la villa d'Este telle que nous ne la voyons jamais : l'artiste a posé son chevalet en dehors de l'enceinte du jardin, au pied des vignes qui courent toujours au Sud-Ouest du site. Baroque et à la fois précis est cette vue du même jardin attribuable au peintre allemand Johann-Wilhelm Baur (lot 109). Réputé pour ses gouaches miniaturistes et sa fascination pour les architectures les plus excentriques, il trouve ici le sujet parfait pour employer son talent. La perspective centrale de la villa d'Este est agrémentée d'un escalier en son centre que nous pouvons toujours admirer aujourd'hui. La richesse des décorations sculptées a subi les outrages du temps et la végétation s'est considérablement développée. Ce tableau n'en est qu'un plus précieux témoignage de ce que fut ce lieu incroyable à son origine. Estimation 7 000 - 10 000 €
