ÉCOLE FLAMANDE DU XVIIe SIÈCLE, SUIVEUR DE SIR ANTHONY VAN DYCK
Portrait of François Langlois, known as Chartres
oil on canvas
95.2 x 70.5 cm. (37½ x 27¾ in.)
US$9,100-14,000
£7,100-11,000
PROVENANCE:
Remained in the family by descent since the second half of the 19th century.
There are two autograph versions by Van Dyck representing the print dealer and friend of the painter, François Langlois. One of these versions is today kept at the National Gallery in London (see S. Barnes (ed.), Van Dyck: A complete catalogue of the paintings, New Haven and London, 2004, p. 549, no. IV) and the other, also autograph, was painted for the model. The two versions are very similar, but a difference in the hat (tighter and with the edges closer to the nape of the neck) makes it possible to distinguish them.
Our painting seems to be a revival of the version in Langlois' possession that was sold at Christie's in 2018 (anonymous sale, Christie's, New York, April 19, 2018, no. 52, reproduced) after having been in the collection of the Prince de Conti in the 18th century.
