Large Antique Oil on Canvas Painting "Celebration", Men Drinking Wine & Smoking
About the Item
Large size and one of a kind painting with a great atmosphere.
We are by no means connoisseurs when it comes to antique paintings, but we have seen enough antique paintings to know when something is special, decorative and truly joyful and interesting to look at. And the large size of this antique work of art, makes it impressive too. Also, because it must have taken one skilled painter an awful lot of time (probably weeks, if not months) to hand-paint this joyous scene of educated friends celebrating. We have named this painting 'celebration', but we are certain you yourself could come up with other appropriate titles as well. We were able to purchase this unique painting at an estate sale in the city of Berlin, but we are not sure if this is a German painting or not. We are unable to 'decipher' the signature and when looking at the well dressed gentlemen in this painting, we believe, some of them could also be English. What we do know, is that some 20 to 40 years ago this painting was entirely glued onto a new canvas, which is why we added images 13 and 14. Here you can see that the antique canvas is on top of a much earlier canvas, but they did use the antique, hand-forged nails to keep it as original as possible. Judging from what we see in this painting, this could be a scene of friends drinking in a tavern, but this could also be a group of businessman enjoying drinks in a (or their) cider distillery. What we like best are the truly happy and smiling faces in this friendly gathering. And the way the candlelight on the table is 'distributed' through the space, makes the entire scene very intimate and atmosperic. Apart from some minor imperfections this large and nostalgic painting is in very good condition and we believe it will look particularly great in a wine bar, in a grand cafe or in any other room or establishment where this type of relaxation is enjoyed.
We don't know the 'exact' value of this large size and antique painting, but because of its uniqueness, its age, its subject matter, its decorative value and its condition, we are certain it is great value for money at our price. Especially when taking into account that perfect packing (in a custom made crate) and worldwide shipping from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 days are complimentary.

View AllAntique Oil on Canvas Painting Showing Emotional Clown / Mime Masks by I. Weyts
Located in Lisse, NL
Marvellous and good size work of theater art.
In the pre-television and pre-movie Arts and Crafts era much more was communicated via stage performers and via drawings and paintings. This naive style painting, in an artistic manner shows us some of the most recognizable of human emotions. Also because most people (circa 1900) could not yet read, clowns and mime players were some of the most important story tellers using body and facial expressions only. Most of them were so good at what they did that, even without words, everyone knew exactly what they were communicating. 'Floating in the air' and against the dark background these mime or clown masks...

Large Antique Italian School Oil on Canvas Painting Apparition of Mary to James
Located in Lisse, NL
Large size antique Gothic Art painting 'The Apparition of the Virgin Mary to Saint James'.
We are by no means connoisseurs when it comes to antique paintings, but we have seen enough antique paintings to know when something is special, decorative and truly inspiring and interesting to look at. And the large size of this antique work of art, makes it impressive too. Also, because it must have taken one very skilled painter an awful lot of time (probably weeks, if not months) to hand-paint this famous religious scene. According to ancient local tradition, on January 2nd of the year AD 40, the Virgin Mary appeared to James on the bank of the Ebro River at Caesaraugusta, while he was preaching the Gospel in Iberia. Looking at the perfectly painted ancient landscape
and the kneeling figure who is in awe of what he is witnessing (by the river bank) we believe this is in fact the apparition of Mary to James. Following that apparition, by the way, St. James returned to Judea, where he was beheaded by King Herod Agrippa the first (in the year AD 44). Judging from the skillfully painted individuals in the Renaissance Style and the striking and lively colors, we believe, this late 1800s painting is the work of a true artisan. This work of religious art on the back reads 'Sacerdote Salvatore Rosa, Dipinse 1889' which means Priest Salvatore Rosa, Painted 1889. This priest clearly had a god given talent and god bless him for having created this masterpiece.
Apart from some minor imperfections this large and nostalgic painting is in very good condition and we believe it will look particularly great in a church, monastery or chapel. At the same time, a one of a kind antique like this will ofcourse also look great atop the stairwell of a mansion or in the entry hall of a French castle etc. We don't know the 'exact' value of this large size antique painting...
