Mattheus Terwesten, attributed to, Diana and Endymion, Bacchus and Ariadne and a River God and his Consort
Est: €5,000 - €7,000
We would like to thank Dr. Charles Dumas for indicating these paintings to be the work of the Hague-born painter Mattheus Terwesten. Like his brother Augustin (1649-1711), Mattheus specialised in mythological and allegorical themes, particularly in the field of decorative painting. The depiction of three mythological couples in one picture is unusual. In the center are Diana and the sleeping Endymion, in the left foreground Bacchus and probably Ariadne, while the third couple at the bottom edge of the picture depicts a river god (perhaps Achelous) and his consort (perhaps Sterope).

Est: €25,000 - €35,000
PLAFOND-GEMÄLDE MIT SCHWEBENDEN PUTTI UND BLÜTEN INMITTEN EINER BALUSTRADE Öl auf Leinwand. Durchmesser: 284 cm. Ungerahmt. Beigegeben Expertise von Dr. Richard Harmanni, Amsterdam. Beeindruckendes ins Ornamentale spielende Illusionsgemälde. Umlaufende, optisch zulaufende rote Balustrade zwischen vier Sandstein vorgaukelnden Pilasterelementen. Auf diesen Blumen- und Blattmotive in das Zentrum vermittelnd, das den Blick in einen blauen Himmel freigibt. Dieser wird belebt von Wolkenbändern und fliegenden Putti, die in ihren Armen einen Blütenkorb mit Rosen, Päonien, Anemonen, Hibiskus, Orangenblüten und anderen Blumen halten. Von Terwesten sind uns mehrere solcher Plafond Gemälde überliefert, doch nur selten greift er architektonische Elemente als Mittel der Vermittlung und der illusionistischen Wahrheitsgebung auf. Zumeist sitzen die dargestellten Figuren, meist allegorischer Natur, auf Wolkenbänken – hier jedoch ist ein aktives Fliegen dargestellt, wodurch dem Gesamtmotiv eine Dynamik innewohnt, welche von der stark verkürzten architektonischen Umrandung noch genährt wird. Provenienz: Hooglandse Kerkgracht 22, Leiden, ab 1751 als Deckengemälde. Privatsammlung Constant Willem Scheurleer, ab 1917. Privatsammlung Cornelis Johannes Baron Schimmelpenninck van der Oye, erworben vor 1961/1962. Privatsammlung, Niederlande. Anmerkung: Terwesten ging wie viele Künstler seiner Zeit nach seiner Ausbildung nach Rom und wurde Mitglied der Bentvueghels mit dem Beinamen Adler. Terwesten bereiste auch Berlin, wo sein Bruder Augustinus Terwesten (1649-1711) Hofmaler bei Friedrich I von Preußen war und wo auch er einige Gemälde schuf. 1699 kehrte er nach Den Haag zurück, er wurde dort und über die Grenzen der Niederlande hinaus berühmt für seine Deckengemälde, welche sehr gefragt waren. Nach dem großen Künstlerbiographen des 18. Jahrhunderts Johan van Gool gab es „in den Haeg nauelyks een aenzienlyk huis, of het praelt met zyne Kunstwerken“; von diesen Gemälden haben jedoch nur eine Handvoll die Zeiten schadlos überstanden. Vergleiche: Ähnliche Plafond-Gemälde aus der Hand Terwestens befinden sich im Stadhuis am Groenmarkt in Den Haag und Im Museum Vlaardingen Inv. Nr. 2403.

MATTHEUS TERWESTEN (attr. a)
Est: €400 - €600
(L'Aia, 1670 - 1757) Paesaggio con putti e baccanale Olio su tela, cm 50X63 Autodidatta e poi disegnatore in una bottega di oreficeria, Terwesten fu poi allievo di Nicolaes Wieling, pittore di soggetti storici. Quando questi divenne pittore di corte di Federico Guglielmo, elettore di Brandeburgo, Terwesten proseguì i suoi studi presso Willem Doudijns (1630-1697). Negli anni a seguire il pittore viaggiò in Germania e raggiunse Roma dove risiedette dal 1675 al 1677, studiando e copiando le migliori opere d'arte della capitale e trovando sufficiente lavoro da potersi mantenere. Dopo un periodo di permanenza a Venezia, dove studiò le opere di Tiziano e del Tintoretto, e a Firenze, nel 1678 ritornò all'Aia passando per la Francia e l'Inghilterra. Nel 1682 fondò l'Accademia assieme a Willem Doudijns, Theodor van der Schuer (1628-1707), Daniel Mijtens II e Robbert Duval. Questa istituzione offriva agli artisti la possibilità di eseguire disegni da modelli dal vero. La produzione del pittore conta essenzialmente temi storici e allegorici, spesso ispirati dalle opere di Ovidio e si dedicò molto alla decorazione a fresco. Nel 1690 divenne pittore di corte dell'Elettore di Brandeburgo, in seguito Re di Prussia, che lo nominò direttore dell'Accademia delle arti di Prussia a Berlino.
