Salvator Rosa - Master Drawings, Prints before 1900, Watercolours, Miniatures

A landscape study with ruins at a pond, pen and brown ink, on laid paper, 7,8 x 13,2 cm, inscribed "S. Rosa" on support, browned, mounted, framed, (Sch)

Literature:
Compare Caterina Volpi, Salvator Rosa (1615-1673). "Pittore Famoso", Rome 2014, Cat. 72, 73, p. 412; Cats. 98, 99, pp. 440-41; Cat. 105, p. 445; Cat. 133, 134, pp. 459-460. Arches and vistas through rocks are commonly found in several landscape paintings by Salvator Rosa, which the artist mainly executed during his sojourn in Florence between 1641-1649, and at the beginning of his Roman period between 1650-60 (comp. Volpi 2014, Cats. 72, 73, p. 412; Cats. 98, 99, pp. 440-41; Cats. 133, 134, pp. 459-60). The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (Inv. 1970.101.16) preserves a stylistically comparable drawing by Salvator Rosa which is also of small format ("Landscape with hills at a pond and trees in the foreground, pen and brown ink, 5,3 x 14,5 cm).

The attribution to Salvator Rosa was confirmed by Caterina Volpi on the basis of a digital high resolution photography.
