(Anversa, 1590 - 1652) Tempesta in mare Olio su tavola, cm 38,5X51 Provenienza: Colonia, Lempertz, 15 marzo 2017, lotto 24 (come Andries Van Eertvelt) Collezione privata Nato ad Anversa non sappiamo come avvenne la sua formazione, ma nel 1609 l'artista è registrato come maestro nella Gilda di San Luca. Nel 1627 intraprese un viaggiò in Italia insieme all'allievo Matthieu van Plattenberg ed è documentato a Genova dal 1628 al 1630 presso il suo connazionale Cornelis de Wael. Tornato in patria continuò la propria carriera con successo dedicandosi prevalentemente a dipingere marine. È infatti indubbio che Van Eertvelt si debba considerare l'artista fiammingo di marine più celebre della sua epoca e la produzione si diversifica in scene di battaglia, tempeste, vedute con navi alla fonda, evocando sovente immaginarie coste mediterranee. L'opera è corredata da schede critiche di Ferdinando Arisi e Raffaella Colace.

(Antwerp 1590–1652) A Naval battle, traces of a monogram lower centre (on the driftwood): AE, oil on canvas, 141 x 207 cm, framed A comparable work is in the Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna (inv. no. 595); another one was sold at Bernaerts, Antwerp, 30 March 1998, lot 6. Andries van Eertvelt was born in Antwerp, where he joined the Guild of Saint Luke in 1609 as a master. He is regarded as one of the first Flemish marine painters. His depictions of naval engagements are treated in a dramatic manner with sharply contrasting effects of light and dark. He was highly esteemed during his lifetime. In his day van Eertvelt was a man of distinction whose artistic qualities were praised by the poet Cornelis de Bie and whose marine paintings were appreciated abroad, some being exported as far as Seville and Lisbon. He had also an eager clientele in the Dutch Republic.

Schipping off a Mediterranean coast Oil on canvas, 232.3 x 149.2 cm Provenance: - Auction Christie's, London, 31 October 2007, lot 1 - Private collection, the Netherlands Note: Registered at the RKD - Netherlands Institute for Art History in The Hague under number 292459. Andries van Eertvelt was a Flemish painter, draughtsman and engraver who was one of the first Flemish artists to specialize in marine art. Van Eertvelt was a pupil of Hendrik Cornelisz Vroom (1566-1640) and, in the early part of his career, painted small seascapes in the manner of his master. After 1615 he travelled together with one of his pupils, Matthieu van Plattenberg, to Italy. Having been influenced by his time spent in Italy, he decided to paint on a grander and larger scale. This work can, therefore, almost certainly be dated to the latter part of his career. Van Eertvelt was very successful as a marine artist and some of his works were exported to markets in Spain and Portugal. Court artist and painter Anthony van Dyck (1599-1641) painted a portrait and an engraving of Van Eertvelt, which was included in Van Dyck's Iconography (Icones Principum Virorum): a collection of portraits of then contemporary leading personalities. Van Eertvelt is even remembered as "son of the seas" by the Flemish 17th century biographer Cornelis de Bie.

A Mediterranean capriccio of a sea fight between European merchantmen and Ottoman galeasses, oil on canvas, 145x228 cm Provenance: -Auction, Christie's, London, 31 October 2007, lot 1, where acquired by the present owner. Andries van Eertvelt is believed to have been trained as a painter in the north part of The Netherlands. There may have been an influence of the Dutch marine painter Hendrick Cornelisz Vroom (1562/3-1640), some however point out the impact of sixteenth century Flemish marine painting on his style. His early work was colourful with glazes of a bright clarity and it had been executed with precision. These early paintings were usually made on a small canvas. He travelled to Italy and stayed in Genoa from 1628-30. This very much influenced his work which became looser as his canvasses became larger and his palette also became more subdued. His work has a characteristic effect of making his rigging bright against a dark background, this technique inspired his followers. Back in Antwerp he continued his successful career as a marine painter and some of his works were exported to markets in Spain and Portugal. He also had an enthusiastic clientele in the Dutch Republic.

NOTE Andries van Eertvelt était membre de la guilde de Saint Luc en 1615. Après la mort de sa femme Katarina de Vlieger, il effectua un voyage en Italie en 1627, où il travailla dans l'atelier de Cornelis de Wael à Gênes. En 1630, il est de retour à Anvers et compte parmi ses apprentis Matthieu van Plattenberg, Willem van Overdyck ou encore Kaspar van Eyck. En 1632, Anton van Dyck fit le portrait de l'artiste , ce qui laisse mesurer le succès considérable qu'il connut de son vivant. Van Eertvelt fut un des premiers peintres de marine flamand (il naquit à Anvers) à travailler en Hollande, comme un plus tard van Anthonissen et van Antum. Tant par son aspect spectaculaire que par son intérêt historique, le présent tableau ainsi que son pendant La bataille de Lépante représentent deux rares chefs d'~uvre de la peinture de marine du Siècle d'or dans les Pays du Nord. On y retrouve une influence considérable du premier peintre de marine hollandaise Hendrik Cornelisz Vroom qui privilégiait également davantage le sujet historique sur l'observation objective des phénomènes atmosphériques et du comportement de l'homme face à la mer tels qu'ils sont illustrés chez des artistes comme Jan Porcellis et plus tard Jan van Goyen. Les marines de van Eertvelt sont encore à situer dans la tradition des peintre maniéristes de la fin du XVIème siècle, avec un coloris bleu-vert caractéristique et un goût pour les effets dramatiques jouant sur de violents contrastes de lumière. Ici, van Eertvelt représente tout d'abord la flotte hollandaise : on distingue au premier plan au centre un navire battant pavillon zélandais, et sur la gauche en retrait, un autre battant pavillon de Negen.

Van Eertvelt fut un des premiers peintres de marine flamand (il naquit à Anvers) à travailler en Hollande, comme un plus tard van Anthonissen et van Antum. Cette impressionnante marine représente une bataille qui symboliquement eut un immense retentissement dans toute la Chrétienté car elle marqua la fin de l'invincibilité Ottomane. Le sujet fut peint par de nombreux peintres de marine hollandais. La bataille eut lieu en 1591 au large du port de Lépante, possession vénitienne en Grèce. Elle opposa la flotte chrétienne de la Sainte Ligue, réunissant les forces navales vénitiennes et espagnoles sous le commandement de don Juan d'Autriche, qui mit en déroute la flotte turque d'Ali Pacha. Au premier plan un peu à gauche, van Eertvelt a représenté le navire amiral de don Juan d'Autriche, demi frère de Philippe II et Commandant de la flotte chrétienne. Son navire vénitien battant pavillon aux armes des Habsbourg et portant la croix de la Sainte Ligue sur ses voiles, est prit d'assaut par quatre galères ottomanes. Dans le fond a gauche, trois autres bateaux battant pavillon des Habsbourg sont décorés en poupe d'une effigie de la Sainte Vierge ; à côté un navire vénitien crache le feu de ses canons. Malgré l'impact symbolique qu'eut cette bataille, cette victoire célébrée dans toute la chrétienté fut sans lendemain : Chypre demeura turque et les Ottomans reconstituèrent leur flotte en une année. On connaît une autre version de la bataille de Lépante par Andries van Eertvelt conservée au musée de Bergues.
