    • Jaume Cabrera (doc. 1394-1432)
      May. 05, 2022

      Jaume Cabrera (doc. 1394-1432)

      Est: €35,000 - €45,000

      Jaume Cabrera (doc. 1394 - 1432) "Madonna and Child with Angels" Tempera painting on panel. Catalonia, circa 1400. 53,5 x 63 cm Originally from the altarpiece of the church of Salvador de l’Alzina de Ribelles (Vilanova de l’Aguda, Lleida). According to the report that Dr. Alberto Velasco Gonzàlez has written on this painting, this is one of the compartments of the predella of the altarpiece from the church of Salvador de Alzina de Ribelles (Vilanova de l’Aguda, Lleida). The upper body of the altarpiece is now kept at the Museu Maricel in Sitges, whilst the compartments that formed the predella were dispersed into the art and antiques market. The panels which were part of it are kept in different private collections, excepting the Epiphany, which can be found in the Museu Nacional d’Art de Catalunya in Barcelona. The panel shows a depiction of the Madonna and Child surrounded by musician angels. Ichnographically, the painting is outstanding in the way it shows us a type of Madonna that was common in the Middle Ages, Our Lady of Humility – in which the Virgin Mary sits on the floor on a cushion. A second important detail is the fact that Jesus is holding a little bird that pecks one of his fingers. This can be interpreted as a metaphor of the Resurrection and, especially, as an allegory for the passion and death of Christ. With regard to the style, the altarpiece of Alzina de Ribelles is one of the initial (and most important) works by the painter Jaume Cabrera, and it is believed that he painted it circa 1400. He was an artist of the first generation of the international style in Catalonia, alongside Lluís Borrassà, Guerau Gener, Joan Mates and others. He preferred to work in the Barcelona area, although he is also documented in the Girona area and the surroundings of Vic. It is specifically in the Episcopal Museum in Vic that a panel is kept with the same scene as this panel, which must certainly correspond to a later moment in his career. Apart from the altarpiece of Alzina de Ribelles, other outstanding works by Jaume Cabrera include the altarpiece of Saint Nicholas, kept at the church of Santa María in Manresa, that of Saint Martin Sarroca, the Lamentation before the Dead Christ in the Museu d’Art in Girona, and a small triptych which is kept in the Museo Arqueológico Nacional in Madrid. We would like to thank Dr. Alberto Velasco Gonzàlez for identifying and cataloguing this painting. Dr. Alberto Velasco Gonzàlez´s report is included in the lot. Provenance: Barcelona, in a dealership (Josep Bardolet); Barcelona, Ricard Viñas Geis collection; Barcelona, private collection.
