Portrait of a Knight in Armour
Oil on canvas
81 x 70 cm./ Framed 93 x 82
A handsome gentleman in armour, immortalised in an authoritative and proud stance, is the subject of our fine portrait, of good quality and painted by an artist belonging to northern Italian culture, presumably Lombardy, in the mid 17th century.
Although his role as a knight is emphasised, his pose is regal, portrayed three-quarter-length, surmounted by a plumed helmet, while holding the typical field marshal's staff, the ceremonial symbol par excellence of command, worn as part of the uniform by soldiers with the highest rank in the hierarchy.
The pictorial quality of the painting is not without Spanish influence, understandable given that for much of the 16th and 17th centuries the Lombardy area was ruled by the Spanish government.

- Portrait Noblewoman Dog Van Loo Paint 18th Century Oil on canvas Old master ArtLocated in Riva del Garda, ITLouis Michel van Loo (Toulon 1707- Paris 1771) attributable Portrait of a noblewoman with her little dog Oil on canvas (79 x 66 cm. - with frame 92 x 78 cm.) A qualitative portrait depicting an elegant noblewoman of French origin, presumably belonging to the wealthy court of Versailles during the reign of Louis XV; this work fully reflects the pictorial qualities as well as the refinement of the compositional style of the French painter Louis Michel van Loo (1707- 1771), one of the most significant portrait painters of his time, and for this reason in demand at the most noble European courts. The work, taking up the traditional formula for portraits of members of the aristocracy, shows the effigy in a half-length pose, slightly turned to the right and looking directly at the viewer. The woman, with a regal bearing, is here portrayed intent on completing her daily beauty ritual, wearing a cape during her make-up, which must have just been completed as pink powder is visible on her cheeks. This luxurious garment reveals a corset with a daring neckline, made of silk and lace, and a coral-coloured dress ending in wide jabote cuffs. Her hair is styled in the French fashion in a hairstyle that highlights her facial features. Having finished her beauty ritual, the woman is intent on removing her cape with one hand, an elegant gesture that emphasises her noble pose. At her side is her small pet dog, sitting on a blue velvet cushion with gold trim. The canvas may have been made on the occasion of a wedding, elegantly celebrating the role of a member of the aristocracy. The presence of the pet depicted in her arms had in fact a precise meaning: the fidelity that is such a well-known characteristic of the dog, declared at the same time the virtues of the effigy. Louis Michel van Loo (Toulon 1707- Paris 1771) was the son of the painter Jean Baptiste van Loo, with whom he studied in Rome and Turin. He attended the Paris Academy, where he won the first prize for painting in 1726. In 1728 he returned to Rome, where he met Francois Boucher. In 1732, passing through Turin, he returned to Paris. In 1737 van Loo became court painter in Madrid, succeeding Jean Ranc...Category
