Exquisite 17th Cent. Italian Drawing: PROVENANCE. Christie’s - Schaffer Gallery

Description: We are thrilled to present an exceptional 17th-century drawing from the esteemed Italian School. This masterpiece, rendered in brown ink on paper, captures a mesmerizing rocky landscape with impeccable precision and artistry. The scene features a majestic castle to the left, framed by lush trees in the foreground and background, and a villa-like structure gracefully positioned in the middle background against gently fading hills. The artwork’s picturesque quality is enhanced by the incredible detail and the artist's mastery of cross-hatching techniques, which produce subtle to dramatic shading, adding remarkable depth and dimensionality to the piece. Signed in the lower right corner with the initials "S.N.," this drawing is attributed to the talented Novelanus or Simon Van Der Noeuel, an artist active in Cologne between 1560 and 1590. Adding to its allure, the recto of this piece features a meticulous geometric study, showcasing the artist's diverse skill set and intellectual pursuits. Piece measures approximately 13cm by 20cm (gallery label reflects 135mm x 207mm). Frame measures approximately 15.5 inches by 12.5 inches. This drawing boasts excellent provenance, having been purchased through the prestigious Schaffer Galleries in New York, then passed into the distinguished Cornella Bessie estate, and subsequently through a notable Christie’s auction. Opportunities to acquire such a distinguished piece with such a strong historical background and provenance are exceedingly rare. Art enthusiasts and collectors, do not miss this chance to own a remarkable and historically significant work that will surely enhance and enrich any collection. Act swiftly to secure this unique piece of art history.
