Caterina Maffeis

Cornelis Schut  1597 - 1655

Acheté au marchand Guy van Oers.
Voici sa description :

The drawing, executed in pen and ink over a charcoal underdrawing on laid paper, depicts a religious scene.  The Holy Trinity (Father God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit) are depicted on a group of clouds.  Father God is holding a septre (the symbol of his power), Jesus holds the cross (the symbol of his sacrifising for humanity) and the Holy Spirit, symbolised by the dove is surrounded by an aureole.
This drawing, squared for transfer, for sure was a preparatory study for a larger scale painting, in our opinion an altarpiece for a church devoted to the Holy Trinity (possibly the church of the Augustines in Brussels - church closed in 1796). 

Authorship : the drawing is from the Flemish school, given to Cornelis Schut.  We are greatfull for the assitance of Mr. G. Gr. (Brussels), helping us cataloguing this drawing.

CORNELIS SCHUT (Antwerp 1597 - Antwerp 1655) : Flemish painter, draftsman and engraver, active in Antwerp and Italy.  It is generaly accepted that he was a pupil of Rubens.  He entered the Guilt of Saint Luke in 1618.
In 1627, he's registered in Rome, where he collaborated with the painter Tyman Arentz. Cracht on frescoes in the villa "Casino Pescatore", located in Frascati, owned by Giorgio Pescatori (aka Pieter de Vischere), a wealthy Italian banker and patron of Flemish descent.  During these years Schut also painted small works with allegorical and mythological themes.
He stayed in Italy till ca. 1630.  After this year, he returned to Antwerp, where he started a succefull studio, producing religious, alegorical and mythological paintings, as well as decorations for festivities in his native city.
His work displays little stylistic resemblance to that of Rubens.  Schuts’ skill in interpreting the themes of the Coutner-Reformation led to many commissions for altarpieces in churches and monasteries.

Period : ca. 1630-1640.

Size : 26,5x20,2cm.

Condition : Fairly good.  The paper shows quite some small holes (therefore laid down at a supporting sheet).  Some scattered dirt throughout.  Right below : some small brown spots.  Topzone : some traces of wrinkling.
