alb3683282 Saint Francis of Assisi Resuscitating a Dead Youth. Artist: Camillo Procaccini (Italian, Bologna 1555-1629 Milan). Dimensions: 5 11/16 x 4 7/8in. (14.5 x 12.4cm). Date: 1555-1629.Nancy Ward Neilson has suggested that the present design may be a preparatory study for one of the now-destroyed scenes from the life of Saint Francis painted during the late 1580's by or under the supervision of Camillo in the second cloister adjacent to the church of Sant'Angelo in Milan. Like the 'Annunciation' (acc. no. 80.3.181), this drawing was attributed to Camillo by Philip Pouncey in 1965. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3638396 Tommaso di Folco Portinari (1428-1501); Maria Portinari (Maria Maddalena Baroncelli, born 1456). Artist: Hans Memling (Netherlandish, Seligenstadt, active by 1465-died 1494 Bruges). Dimensions: (.626, Tommaso) overall 17 3/8 x 13 1/4 in. (44.1 x 33.7 cm), painted surface 16 5/8 x 12 1/2 in. (42.2 x 31.8 cm); (.627, Maria) overall 17 3/8 x 13 3/8 in. (44.1 x 34 cm); painted surface 16 5/8 x 12 5/8 in. (42.2 x 32.1 cm). Date: ca. 1470.The clever balance of verisimilitude and idealization in the features of this pair made Hans Memling the most sought-after portraitist of his day. The Florentine Tommaso Portinari was the branch manager of the Medici bank in Bruges, and probably commissioned these portraits from Memling upon the couple's marriage in 1470. They originally formed a triptych with a central devotional image of the Virgin and Child. Beyond demonstrating the couple's piety, Maria's elaborate necklace and gown display their wealth and social status. Memling places the sitters before illusionistic frames, an innovation suggesting that the figures project into our space. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3633164 Self-Portrait. Artist: William Orpen (British, 1878-1931). Dimensions: 40 1/8 x 33 1/8 in. (101.9 x 84.1 cm). Date: ca. 1910.Born in Ireland, William Orpen studied in Dublin from 1892 to 1896 and went to London for further study at the Slade School of Fine Art in 1896. For the rest of his life, he lived and worked in London. There he received a number of honors, including membership in the New English Art Club, a governmental appointment as an official war artist during World War I, and a knighthood in 1918. He continued to work as a fashionable portrait painter during the 1920s, portraying wealthy and prestigious sitters in a traditional, highly polished style that rejected more recent developments in avant-garde art. He also produced a number of realistic self-portraits, both before and after the war, including Myself and Cupid (1910, Carnegie Institute, Pittsburgh) and Ready to Start (1917, Imperial War Museum, London).This self-portrait, also known as Leading the Life in the West, refers to Orpen's life as a young artist in the West End of London. Orpen stands reflected full-length in a mirror in his studio, wearing a bowler hat and holding gloves and a riding crop. A shelf below the mirror holds paintbrushes and rags, the tools of the artist's trade, as well as several bottles of liquor. Various pieces of correspondence, including an I.O.U. signed by Orpen, are tucked behind the frame of the mirror, further testifying to the pleasures and distractions of the painter's early career. The space of the picture is shallow but complex, with Orpen using his skills as a draftsman to resolve the challenges of surface, lighting, and reflection that he has set for himself.

alb3678141 The Rest on the Flight into Egypt. Artist: Gerard David (Netherlandish, Oudewater ca. 1455-1523 Bruges). Dimensions: 20 x 17 in. (50.8 x 43.2 cm). Date: ca. 1512-15.This composition presents the Flight into Egypt as a continuous narrative. In a tiny background scene the Holy Family emerges from the forest, en route to the contemporary Netherlandish town at the left. In the foreground Mary nurses the Child in a moment of repose on their arduous journey, which the viewer is visually meant to follow. David achieved in this painting a remarkable balance of color and a serene sense of light and atmosphere. His awareness of Italian Renaissance conventions is evident in the pyramidal motif of the Virgin and Child and his use of chiaroscuro to convey the volume of the figures.

alb3675441 Young Herdsmen with Cows. Artist: Aelbert Cuyp (Dutch, Dordrecht 1620-1691 Dordrecht). Dimensions: 44 1/8 x 52 1/8 in. (112.1 x 132.4 cm). Date: ca. 1655-60.Cuyp was the most talented member of a family of painters from Dordrecht, where--as elsewhere in Holland--city dwellers entertained idyllic notions of life on the land (a tradition going back to the Roman poets Horace and Virgil). In this sun-blessed landscape under satiny clouds, cows sit around like sofas on a carpet of grass and the three figures (a family?) appear to discuss nothing more urgent than which way they might take an afternoon stroll. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA. Author: Aelbert Cuyp.

alb3678771 Johann Joachim Winckelmann (1717-1768). Artist: Anton Raphael Mengs (German, Ústi nad Labem (Aussig) 1728-1779 Rome). Dimensions: 25 x 19 3/8 in. (63.5 x 49.2 cm). Date: ca. 1777.One of the most influential writers on art and archaeology--his History of Ancient Art was published in German in 1764--Johann Joachim Winckelmann was also a close friend and admirer of Mengs. Both were leading exponents of the nascent Neoclassical movement in Rome. In this idealized posthumous portrait Winckelmann is shown holding a Greek edition of Homer's Iliad.

alb3675952 Equestrian Portrait of Cornelis (1639-1680) and Michiel Pompe van Meerdervoort (1638-1653) with Their Tutor and Coachman ("Starting for the Hunt"). Artist: Aelbert Cuyp (Dutch, Dordrecht 1620-1691 Dordrecht). Dimensions: 43 1/4 × 61 1/2 in. (109.9 × 156.2 cm). Date: ca. 1652-53.Inventories of Castle Meerdervoort dating from 1680 and 1749 record Cuyp's portrait of two sons of the wealthy Pompe van Meerdervoort family with their tutor and coachman. The painting hung over the mantle in the boys' room, as the patron probably intended. In the distance Cuyp depicted not the environs of Dordrecht but the countryside near Elten on the Rhine. The castle may allude to the family's place among the landed gentry. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3626534 The Annunciation. Artist: Gerard David (Netherlandish, Oudewater ca. 1455-1523 Bruges). Dimensions: Angel, overall 31 1/8 x 25 in. (79.1 x 63.5 cm), painted surface 30 1/4 x 24 3/8 in. (76.8 x 61.9 cm); Virgin, overall 31 1/8 x 25 1/4 in. (79.1 x 64.1 cm), painted surface 30 1/2 x 24 3/4 in. (77.5 x61.9 cm). Date: 1506.These panels were part of a spectacular multi-storied polyptych commissioned by Vincenzo Sauli, a wealthy Italian banker and diplomat with connections to Bruges, for the high altar of the Benedictine abbey church of San Gerolamo della Cervara, near Genoa. Taking the placement of the Annunciation within the altarpiece into account, David has altered the perspective and the scale of the figures, since both panels were meant to be viewed from below. In style, the ensemble reveals a synthesis of northern and Italian artistic modes that perhaps reflect the patron's ties to both regions. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3603183 Jean-Baptiste Colbert (1619-1683). Artist: Philippe de Champaigne (French, Brussels 1602-1674 Paris). Dimensions: 36 1/4 x 28 1/2 in. (92.1 x 72.4 cm). Date: 1655.In 1651 Colbert joined the household of Cardinal Mazarin, principal advisor to Queen Anne of Austria during the minority of Louis XIV (1638-1715), and one of the great collectors of the seventeenth century. Having recouped the cardinal's fortune, Colbert entered the king's service and, ten years after he sat for this portrait, was appointed minister of finance. He was instrumental in reforming the arts to serve the monarchy. In 1648, he and Charles Le Brun took charge of the Académie Royale and in 1666 founded the French Academy in Rome.

alb3609718 Christ Bearing the Cross. Artist: North Netherlandish (Utrecht?) Painter (ca. 1470). Dimensions: 42 3/8 x 32 3/8 in. (107.6 x 82.2 cm).Set against the backdrop of a contemporary townscape, this theatrical portrayal of Christ's Way to Calvary recalls an annual civic celebration in Bruges, the Procession of the Holy Blood, which included a reenactment of the episodes shown: Christ carrying the cross aided by Simon of Cyrene, Veronica receiving the icon of the Holy Face, and the Virgin and Saint John waiting for Christ. The procession was the responsibility of the Confraternity of the Holy Blood, whose members follow the armored horseman carrying the group's official standard.The painting reflects a lost work by Van Eyck, known from copies. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3601005 Guillaume Budé (1467-1540). Artist: Jean Clouet (French, active by 1516-died 1540/41 Paris). Dimensions: 15 5/8 x 13 1/2 in. (39.7 x 34.3 cm). Date: ca. 1536.Painter to King Francis I, Jean Clouet played a key role in establishing the Renaissance portraiture tradition in France, yet this is his only extant painted portrait. It depicts Guillaume Budé, librarian to Francis I and the leading humanist of sixteenth-century France. Similar to the sitter in Metsys's Portrait of a Woman (32.100.47), Budé's fingers hold his page, as if interrupted. With the quill in his right hand, he has written in Greek, "While it seems to be good to get what one desires, the greatest good is not to desire what one does not need" (Joannes Stobaeus, 3.5.18). Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3653389 The Annunciation. Artist: Philippe de Champaigne (French, Brussels 1602-1674 Paris). Dimensions: Overall, 28 x 28 3/4 in. (71.1 x 73 cm); painted surface, 27 1/4 x 27 3/4 in. (69.2 x 70.5 cm). Date: ca. 1644.Philippe de Champaigne was one of the protagonists of French classicism. His art, inspired in part by his association with Jansenism (a severe Counter-Reformation movement suppressed by Louis XIV), has been described as combining "a scrupulous perfectionism verging on coldness with an inner life of deep intensity." This picture was painted for the private chapel of Queen Anne of Austria (1601-1666), the widowed wife of Louis XIII. The chapel, a small oval room in the Palais Royal, Paris, was decorated by the most prominent French painters of the day. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3619147 The Nativity. Artist: Gerard David (Netherlandish, Oudewater ca. 1455-1523 Bruges). Dimensions: Overall 18 3/4 x 13 1/2 in. (47.6 x 34.3 cm), painted surface 18 1/2 x 13 3/8 in. (47 x 34 cm). Date: early 1480s.This painting, which most likely was intended as a single, private devotional panel, combines the depiction of the Nativity and the Adoration of the Shepherds as described in both biblical and mystical literature. It probably dates from the early 1480s, before David established himself in Bruges. The homely and naive figure types and the geometric simplification of the heads of the Virgin and angels reflect models the artist knew from his early training in the northern Netherlands. Already present is the characteristic combination of serene landscape, simple architectural setting, and meditative figures that would contribute to the painter's popularity.

alb3612235 The Three Ages of Humans. Artist: Dosso Dossi (Giovanni de Lutero) (Italian, Tramuschio ca. 1486-1541/42 Ferrara). Dimensions: 30 1/2 x 44 in. (77.5 x 111.8 cm).The three ages of humankind are represented by two boys peeping behind a bush, by two lovers, and by two old men. But the primary subject is a pastoral landscape (indeed, the old men were a second thought). Landscape was a genre inspired by classical literature and intended above all to delight the eye. Dosso's wit, much prized at the court of Ferrara, is seen in the detail of the goats that appear to spy on the young lovers. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
