  • 1831.06.28/ maison de ventes : Phillips (Harry). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[A grand Landscape. In the pictures of Ruysdael it is evident that he designed every thing from Nature, and he is unusually happy in the selection of it. His trees and broken grounds are of the most pleasing forms, and there is an agreeable freshness in his verdure which is alone peculiar to himself. The pictures of this captivating painter are justly held in the highest estimation, and are found in the choicest collections. This grand Landscape exhibits an extensive view over a flat country, illumined by a transient gleam of sunshine, beautifully varied with woods, meadows, and corn-fields, and interspersed with churches, cottages, and a windmill. The ruins of an ancient fortification, with a surrounding moat bordered with bushy trees, occupy the whole extent of the fore-ground. Seated on a bastion on the right, is a group of boys with a dog, and sheep near him. Esteemed one of the finest productions of this Master. The cattle and figures are painted by Adrian Vander Velde.

  • 1831.06.28/ maison de ventes : Phillips (Harry). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[The Virgin of the Rocks. This magnificent work of art, known by the name of the "Virgin of the Rocks," is one of the three pictures of the same subject by the celebrated Lionardo; one is in the Gallery of the Louvre, the second is in the possession of Lord Suffolk, and the third is now submitted to the Public. In the centre of the picture is the Virgin Mary, on her left hand is the Infant Saviour attended by an Angel, on her right is St. John resting on one knee, and with uplifted hands bending towards the Saviour. This scene derives a grandeur and solemnity from a sequestrated rocky situation which the artist has chosen, and which is so admirably suited to the subject. In the face and figure of the Virgin there is a charm truly irresistible. Dignity, grace, and feminine loveliness cannot fail to strike the most casual observer. The Infant Jesus is a sublime and lovely conception, uniting with the most graceful ease that intelligence, which may well be supposed, adorned the God-like child. The expression of fond adoration and humility in St. John towards his heavenly master, is perfect; the celestial air which pervades the whole composition is judiciously and forcibly completed by the introduction of the Angel The admiration and interest excited by the Exhibition of this Collection, during the last year, at New York, surpassed in number of visitors any record of similar expositions in any part of Europe, notwithstanding it was controlled by a liberal cost of admission.
