Godfried Schalcken (1643-1706), follower of - Bildnis einer alten Dame

We are selling this painting from an estate. We have had the painting since 2012, but it really doesn’t suit us at all. In the report from the year 1996, everything essential is detailed, and this was confirmed to me in Munich as well. The 1996 report is, of course, included in its original form. The painting shows the portrait of an old lady from the 17th century. It is in the so-called cabinet format, measuring 15x19 cm. The frame, which is also from the period, is 30x40 cm. It is an oil painting that was painted directly onto an oak panel. The dark, profiled frame stylistically fits perfectly into the era and, according to the report, originates from the time of the painting’s creation. The Rembrandt influence: The restorer emphasizes that the influence of the Rembrandt workshop is unmistakable. This is particularly evident in the rendering of age, the psychological depth of the face, and the masterful interplay of light and shadow (chiaroscuro). The painting technique, according to the report, suggests that the artist either spent time traveling in Venice or worked closely with Italian-influenced colleagues. Such stylistic blends were indeed valued in Dutch Baroque (the end of the Golden Age). The characteristic vertical wood grain is clearly visible in the close-up photographs.
