Attributed to Sassoferrato (Giovanni Battista Salvi) (1609-1685) Maria Magdalena Oil on canvas, 73.2 x 59.6 cm Provenance: - Collection J. Goudstikker, Amsterdam, no. 622 as Sassoferrato - Private collection, the Netherlands Note: Giovanni Battista Salvi da Sassoferrato, also known as Giovanni Battista Salvi, was an Italian Baroque painter, known for his archaizing commitment to Raphael's style. He is often referred to only by the town of his birthplace (Sassoferrato), as was customary in his time, and for example seen with da Vinci and Caravaggio. Sassoferrato's contributions to art, particularly during the Baroque period, left a lasting legacy, earning him a revered place in the art world as a master of timeless and contemplative compositions. With the exception of a few portraits of ecclesiastical dignitaries and a self-portrait, Sassoferrato produced mostly devotional pieces, especially madonnas and female saints, intended for sale to pilgrims and other patrons. His masterful use of light, delicate brushwork, and attention to detail brought his subjects to life, capturing the essence of spirituality and inner grace. This painting is an outstending example of Sassoferrato's sentimental style, recognizable by the pious praying hand gesture and the upword gazebathing in the divine light. * Condition report available upon request

Andreas Schelfhout (1787-1870) Panoramic Summer Landscape near Haarlem (1855) Signed and dated 55 lower right Oil on panel, 22.1 x 29 cm Provenance: Private collection, the Netherlands Note: The landscape painter Andreas Schelfhout from The Hague had a penchant for the landscape surrounding Haarlem. Quite early on, from 1820 onwards, he was inspired by this rolling, scenic area with its fine panoramas. Schelfhout’s summer landscapes depicting this location reflect the tradition of the oeuvre of the seventeenth century landscape painter Jacob van Ruysdael (1628/1629-1682). The quintessentially Dutch landscape surrounding Haarlem was a favourite amongst the painters of Dutch Romanticism, following the lead of Schelfhout. This painting, dated 1855, arose in the best artistic period of the artist. * Condition report available upon request
