Over the course of his long career he created lively mythological scenes dramatic altarpieces for guilds and smaller works for wealthy individuals. Several of his religious paintings were destroyed by Protestant iconoclasts in 1566. One of his extant masterpieces the Ecce Homo triptych of 1544 once graced the family chapel of Jan van Drenckwaerdt a wealthy merchant and sheriff in Dordrecht’s Augustinian church. This unusually complete triptych with its original decorated frame was brought from the National Museum in Warsaw Poland for treatment and study at the J. Paul Getty Museum as part of the Conservation Partnership program. Richly illustrated the book documents the dramatic process of revealing the brilliance of a sixteenth-century masterpiece and it sheds light on the artist’s technique iconography and the role of the altarpiece in the turbulent history of the era. Drama and Devotion accompanies an exhibition at the J. Paul Getty Museum that opens June 5 2012. . 2012. 1606061127 . Museum paperback
1804réf. 37730London. 1804. Illustrated Fire Insurance Policy Bifolium of two broadsides for the Phoenix fire insurance company of London at the time of the opening of its first agency in New York. The Phoenix Assurance Company still operating today as Phoenix Life Ltd. was founded in 1782 by a consortium of sugar refiners in London seeking more reasonable rates for the insurance of their risky holdings against fire. By the mid-1780s Phoenix had established itself as a successful fire insurer across the whole of Great Britain for a wide array of businesses and homes. In 1785 the Phoenix Company sold its first North American policy at Charleston and the first policy in New York was accepted two years later. It was not until 1804 however that Phoenix began establishing actual agencies in the New World breaking ground in New York with the appointment of Theophylact and Andrew Bache as agents there. The first leaf is a printed policy form for the Phoenix Company in New York never filled in. The second leaf is an advertising broadside for the company containing a table of rates for New York subscribers and a detailed list of conditions for new policies. The handsome copper engraving at the top of the form leaf depicts a helmeted goddess presumably Athena on a pedestal bearing a shield stamped with the word "PROTECTION" and the image of a phoenix rising from ashes. Behind the figure is a nighttime scene of the burning remains of a building and a family of victims spilling onto the street. A team of firefighters is extinguishing the flames with a pump-operated hose and behind them is a scaffolded building under repair. The engraved caption reads: "PHOENIX FIRE OFFICE LOMBARD STREET and CHARING CROSS." A similar illustration in woodcut is included at the head of the "Proposals" broadside. Here the goddess is the only figure depicted. On her left are both the burning building and the new construction; on her right is a ship at sea engulfed in flames. The hooks and axes of the firefighter adorn the sides of the cut. The Goldsmiths'-Kress Library of Economic Literature at Harvard lists a copy of the Boston variant of the advertising broadside. The only located institutional holding of this New York issue however is at the Connecticut Historical Society. No records of the printed form in any issue have been located. A rare and interesting pair of documents from the early history of international insurance. Bifolium consisting of one unaccomplished broadside form and one broadside advertisement 19½ x 12 inches. Copper-engraved scene 5¾ x 7 inches at head of form. Woodcut emblem 3 x 4½ inches at head of advertisement. Two vertical and three horizontal folds.

1880réf. 285AG1880. Dublin c. 1880. Original 19th century Gouache painting with title in ink mounted separately. Beautifully framed. Size of the Gouache in the frame: 36 cm x 38.5 cm. The Gouache itself measures: 15 cm high x 19 cm wide. Excellent condition of this very accomplished and atmospheric work capturing the full romance of the early 19th century Phoenix Park. The Wellington Monument or more correctly the Wellington Testimonial; Irish: Teistiméireacht Wellington is an obelisk located in the Phoenix Park Dublin Ireland. The testimonial is situated at the southeast end of the Park overlooking Kilmainham and the River Liffey. The structure is 62 metres 203 ft tall making it the largest obelisk in Europe. The Wellington Testimonial was built to commemorate the victories of Arthur Wellesley 1st Duke of Wellington. Wellington an Irishman also known as the 'Iron Duke' was born in Dublin. Originally planned to be located in Merrion Square it was built in the Phoenix Park after opposition from the square's residents. The Testimonial was designed by the architect Sir Robert Smirke and the foundation stone was laid in 1817. However in 1820 it ran out of construction funds and therefore remained unfinished until 18 June 1861 when it was opened to the public. There were also plans for a statue of Wellesley on horseback but the shortage of funds ruled that out. Wikipedia Phoenix Park Irish: Páirc an Fhionnuisce is an urban park in Dublin Ireland lying 24 km west of the city centre north of the River Liffey. Its 11 km perimeter wall encloses 707 hectares 1750 acres one of the largest walled city parks in Europe. It includes large areas of grassland and tree-lined avenues and since the seventeenth century has been home to a herd of wild Fallow deer. The English name comes from the Irish fionn uisce meaning "clear water". The Irish Government is lobbying UNESCO to have the park designated as a world heritage site. Wikipedia Gouache also spelled guache is a type of paint consisting of pigment a binding agent usually gum arabic and sometimes added inert material designed to be used in an opaque method. It also refers to paintings that use this opaque method. The name derives from the Italian guazzo. Gouache differs from watercolor in that the particles are larger the ratio of pigment to water is much higher and an additional inert white pigment such as chalk is also present. This makes gouache heavier and more opaque with greater reflective qualities. Wikipedia. unknown
