On the right the castellated wall of Jerusalem appears, and descending, leads to the holy city, seen in the valley beneath; above and in front are the rocky heights of Mount Calvary, from the midst of which rises the cross, upon which appears our Saviour. The sombre, but transparent background of stormy sky, traversed by a partial gleam of light, marks the awful moment of the departure of the spirit. The drawing and colouring of the figure are admirable, and the whole presents a most masterly example. 3 ft. 6 in. by 2 ft. 6 in. Panel. From the Van Lankeren Collection at Antwerp; imported from thence by Mr. John Smith, and sold by him to the present proprietor. (Peter Paul Rubens)|Our Saviour upon the Cross.

  • 1845.07.11/ maison de ventes : Christie's. Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[The Combat between Richard Coeur de Lion, and Saladin at the great siege of Ascalon. The conflagration of the city bursting between the towers on the right, shrouds the background in smoke. Beneath the towers is seen the army of the Crusaders, and in the van the English, with their banners flying, advancing upon the Saracens. The point of time is when the King of England, finding the wings of his army wavering, leads on the main body in person and secures the victory. The Saracens on the left, totally routed, are flying in dismay. The principal incident, the combat between Richard and Saladin, is represented by the splendid group in the centre, in the meleé of the dead and dying. A composition unsurpassed in any period of art. This interesting passage of English History is most vigorously depicted. It is quite national. A grand chef d'oeuvre. It has been twice engraved, and was esteemed by the great artist as his principal work. (De Loutherbourg)|The Combat between Richard Coeur de Lion, and Saladin at the great siege of Ascalon.
