Friedrich Brentel (German, 1580-1651) Actaeon being transformed into a stag by Diana at a rocky pool at the edge of a wood, with an extensive river landscape and town with mountains beyond signed indistinctly within the gold left margin 'Fr [.............]' (lower left) and dated 163 [?8] (lower right) gouache with gum arabic on vellum, laid down 18.6 x 26.5cm Provenance: Presumed to have been acquired for the collection at Horseheath Hall, Cambridgeshire sometime before 1792, Thereafter removed to Little Barford Manor and by descent in the Alington family to the late owner Sold by order of the Executors of the Estate of the late Nigel Alington (1947-2018) Friedrich Brentel was born circa 1580 in Lauingen, Bavaria. He later studied under his father Georg Brentel's direction initially as an engraver but went on to become one of the most important draughtsmen and artists in 17th century Strasbourg. Through his successful workshop and with his most famous pupil, Johann Wilhelm Baur (1607-1642) they established the city of Strasbourg as a leading centre for the painting of miniature small scale landscapes and other subjects principally in gouache. The present work with its rich palette of colours and brilliant handling of detail is exceptionally well-preserved, other than the artist's signature which seems to have been deliberately and largely obliterated - possibly to pass it off as by his more valuable pupil, Baur, or to confuse it with the work of the even more valuable artist, Jan (Velvet) Breughel the Elder.

FRIEDRICH BRENTEL (Lauingen 1580 – 1651 Strassburg) Actaeon surprises Diana bathing. Gouache on vellum. Signed lower left: F. Brentel. 11.8 x 16.6 cm. Expertise: Dr. Luuk Pijl, 20.1.2019. Provenance: Swiss private collection. Recently discovered in a Swiss private collection. --------------- FRIEDRICH BRENTEL (Lauingen 1580 – 1651 Strassburg) Aktaion überrascht Diana beim Bade. Gouache auf Pergament. Unten links signiert: F. Brentel. 11,8 x 16,6 cm. Gutachten: Dr. Luuk Pijl, 20.1.2019. Provenienz: Schweizer Privatsammlung. Diese äusserst qualitätsvolle und detaillierte Gouache wurde kürzlich in einer Schweizer Privatsammlung entdeckt. Sie zeigt die Szene aus Ovids Metarmorphosen (3, 177 – 182), in welcher der Jäger Aktaion die Göttin Diana beim Bade mit ihren Nymphen belauscht, worauf er von der erzürnten Göttin in einen Hirsch verwandelt und von seinen eigenen Hunden angegriffen wird. Das Thema erfreute sich grosser Beliebtheit und wurde von zahlreichen Künstlern, darunter auch Tizian (1488 – 1576), dargestellt. Besonders um 1600 fand das Thema durch Kupferstiche, wie beispielsweise diejenigen von Antonio Tempesta (1555 – 1630), Verbreitung. Friedrich Brentel, einer der bedeutendsten deutschen Meister der 1. Hälfte des 17. Jahrhunderts, kannte sicherlich Tempestas Stiche von Diana und Aktaion und schuf mit dieser hier angebotenen Gouache seine eigene Interpretation der mythologischen Szene, die er besonders fein und farbenfroh in Szene setzte. Friedrich Brentel war ab 1587 in Strassburg angesiedelt und hatte seine künstlerische Ausbildung bei seinem Vater erhalten. Später reiste er in die Niederlande, wo er die Technik der Miniaturmalerei perfektionierte. Während seiner erfolgreichen Karriere als Kupferstecher, Radierer und Maler erfüllte Brentel zahlreiche bedeutende Aufträge für den Adel, unter anderem eine Serie zu den Trauerfeierlichkeiten von Herzog Karl II. Herzog von Lothringen. Seine älteste bekannte Miniatur stammt aus dem Jahr 1618 und zeigt starke Reminiszenzen mit dem Oeuvre Hans Bols (1534 – 1593). Dies lässt sich auch deutlich bei dieser Arbeit vermerken, die qualitativ sehr nahe bei Hans Bol anzusiedeln ist.

As soon as the body touched Elisha's bones, it was suddenly and miraculously brought to life.
