AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Pastors and laundresses by the river
Workshop of Domenico Brandi
(Naples, 1684-1736)
Oil on canvas 39x47 cm
Period: early to mid-18th century
Good condition
Canvas depicting a bucolic scene set along the banks of a watercourse in the Roman countryside.
The protagonists of the painting are two laundresses washing clothes and two shepherds with a large bovine with long horns, resting and cooling off at the river’s edge.
The scene is particularly pleasant for its mood of great serenity in an environment distant from the frenetic city life, where silence and quiet reign.
One of the interpreters of this kind of works was the Neapolitan Domenico Brandi (Naples, 1684–1736), who, moving to the capital at a young age, learned from the great master Philipp Peter Roos, known by the nickname Rosa da Tivoli.
Brandi distinguished himself for his excellent painting skills, initially working in Roos's workshop and then collaborating with him to help realize a large number of works following the success and fame achieved by his Master, with ongoing demand also from foreign collectors.
The extraordinary commercial fortune of this type of landscapes and the death of the German master in 1706 prompted Brandi to open his own workshop to continue the path begun.
The painting presented here should be attributed to a capable pupil of his who stands out for a splendid and lively palette, as well as for a remarkable ability in three-dimensional rendering thanks to a perfect distribution of light and shadow.
The figures in the foreground are depicted in full light and stand out clearly from the thick vegetation grown among the ruins which, in backlight, decisively delimit the main scene and allow the sun-lit villages to be glimpsed in the background through the haze.
