クリスティーズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (クリスティーズInstagram)「Encompassing six centuries of European art, the Old Masters Evening Sale presents a rich array of works, covering a multitude of subjects and mediums.⠀ .⠀ A notable highlight is a rare and immaculately-preserved cabinet picture of cattle by Paulus Potter, one of the most significant painters of the Dutch Golden Age.⠀ .⠀ With an especially distinguished provenance, this is arguably the finest painting by the artist still in private hands.⠀ .⠀ This pastoral scene is an example of Potter's best work in the genre, combining scrupulous observation of the anatomy of the cattle with richly detailed renditions of texture.⠀ .⠀ The artist's interest in light is also evident as the reflections of the central cow and the woman washing out the tub are subtly refracted by gentle ripples in the water.⠀ .⠀ Paulus Potter (1625-1654), 'Landscape with cattle and a woman cleaning a bucket by a stream', 1647. Estimate £2,000,000-£3,000,000.⠀ .⠀ Old Masters Evening Sale — 15 December, London.⠀ .⠀ #oldmasters #painting #pauluspotter #classicweek」11月21日 3時13分
