  • 1822.03.23/ maison de ventes : Christie's. Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[This capital Landscape is generally known in Holland by the name of The Sphinx; it represents a charming Scene, embellished by the Holy Family reposing at the side of an Obelisk, opposite a running Fountain of Water. The eye is farther delightfully led across a River to the wall of a large City, behind which a range of high Mountains appear. In the corner of the Fore-ground, under two Oak-trees, a Sphinx is placed; on its Pedestal is written the name of the Master, and dated 1727; next to this, a Rose-tree in full bloom is painted, asthe seal of the Painter The rich and luxuriant composition, the brilliancy of colouring, the charming harmony produced by the aerial perspective, added to the admirable execution, are the reasons that these two Landscapes have been always considered, in Holland, by artists and conoisseurs, as matchless productions in that line, having been painted in the zenith of Van Hiüizum's talent. As a proof of his exertion to produce these chefs d'oeuvres, it is worth observing, that he previously made of each, besides several sketches, three fine drawings, one pair with pen and ink, one of which is added to the second picture. One pair in bistre and one pair in colours. M. Gildemeester, who possessed the pictures, paid for the last mentioned Drawings at the sale of Fock, in 1790, 2350 Guilders, (upwards of 200 Pounds.) They are still in the Family of his Executor, the late refined Amateur, B. de Bosch, at Amsterdam, at whose sale, in 1816, the present proprietor bought these two Pictures (J. van Huizum)|This capital Landscape is generally known in Holland by the name of The Sphinx; it represents a charming Scene, embellished by the Holy Family reposing at the side of an Obelisk, opposite a running Fountain of Water.

Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[View of the Port of Amsterdam; in front the State Yacht under orders, is seen on the tack, to loof alongside a Man of War under weigh in squally weather; a part of the Dock-yard and City is seen in the distance. This capital Picture having successively adorned the renowned cabinets of Braamcamp, Burgomaster Calkoen, de Smeth, and lastly that of Hoguer, at Amsterdam, has been universally allowed by the best judges, as the happiest effort of the genius of the Master, who certainly never has produced a more striking effect of nature, nor has expressed the motion of his figures, and of the water, with such illusion as he has done in this piece, the excellence of which is equalled by its high state of preservation (L.

  • 1822.03.23/ maison de ventes : Christie's. Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[The Farewell Picture, produced by these two brother Artists previous to the departure of Andrew for Venice, to commemorate their final separation, after having been always closely united in the most exemplary manner. It represents their favourite and picturesque site near Tivoli, with an extensive view of the adjacent Mountains. From the high Rocks on the other side, the Water falls in two Torrents, forming, lower down, a Cascade, which, running under a Wooden Bridge, loses itself between the Trees and Shrubs behind the Fore-ground, on the Road of which the two Brothers are seen on Horseback, taking their final leave: John seems uneasy about the future lot of Andrew, who appears to persuade his Brother that he is well protected, by pointing to his armed Guide, who is likewise on Horseback, and only waiting to depart. The subject is highly interesting; the Portraits are very faithful, and the united talents of these two eminent Masters were never displayed in a higher style of composition, nor in a more brilliant manner of execution, than in this desirable and capital Picture, which, (if any thing can add to its merit and value,) is in its native purity and preservation, being yet on its original straining frame, on which it was painted. It is from the well-known collection of Feitama Vollenhoven, of Amsterdam, and more amply described in the Preface and Work of Ploos van Amstel The Print of the Portrait of John Both, in the very same costume as in the Painting, will accompany the picture (John Both)|The Farewell Picture, produced by these two brother Artists previous to the departure of Andrew for Venice, to commemorate their final separation, after having been always closely united in the most exemplary manner.
