Painter of the 18th century
pair of paintings
PUTTI-DarstellungGrisaillemalerei
on canvas, doubled on wood, each backed with two metal rails
. Each approx. 72 x 73 cm.
Each monogrammed in ligature "TH" at lower left.
In narrow, curved frame.
The first painting shows two almost naked putti between a large and a small tree trunk. One holds a small bag with his left hand up and looks at it. In front of both lying on the ground a crown with sceptre and a mask. The second painting shows, between clouds, three almost naked putti with curly hair, two of them with small wings. One of them is holding a quill in his hand and is currently inscribing a large high-oval panel standing in front of him. Sitting next to him on a cloud is a putto holding a pair of scales and a small sword or dagger in his hands. Above both, another putto is floating on a cloud, holding a victory wreath in his right hand. Skilful, three-dimensional painting in monochrome beige colour. Isolated small scratch marks. A picture probably with fragmented canvas at the edges. Damage to the frame. (1221475) (18) Automatically translated by DeepL. To see the original version, click here.
