Est: £6,000 - £8,000
Jacob Frans van der Merck, Dutch c.1610-1664- Portrait of Ludwig Ziegler (1608-1681), half-length, wearing a black silk tunic and white collar; and a Portrait of Elizabetha Margaretha Spina (1626-1702), half-length, wearing a black silk dress with elaborate white lace triple collar, her hair dressed in ringlets; oil on oak panel and oil on canvas, two, both feigned ovals, both signed, the latter dated 1647, 74x58.5cm and 76.5x62cm (2) Provenance: Lots 8-15 are all from the same UK private collection. Note: Born in S-Gravendeel around 1610, Jacob Frans van der Merck was apprenticed in Delft, and subsequently worked in The Hague and Leiden producing works spread across multiple genres, including portraiture, still life and genre scenes, all completed in the distinctive Dutch manner of the period. The present paintings - although similar in composition and technique - were likely to have been produced at different times during the artists career due to one being completed on panel and the other on canvas. We can discern the date of 1647 on the portrait on Elizabetha Margaretha Spina, with her age being of 21 years, however the portrait of Ludwig Ziegler, on oak panel, seems to have been executed slightly earlier, with a possible date below the signature suggesting some time during the 1640s as well. Ludwig and Elizabetha were apparently married and would have three sons and four daughters. According to records van der Merck was a member of the painters guild in Dordrecht from 1640 to 1649, so around the time these portraits were painted. These engaging portraits display his highly accomplished and realistic technique much sought after during the period. We are grateful to Dr. Fred G. Meijer for confirming the authenticity of these portraits based on images provided. Please refer to department for condition report

MERCK, JACOB FRANSZ. VAN DER ('s-Gravendeel um 1610 - 1664 Leiden) Stillleben mit Papageien und Früchten. Um 1640. Öl auf Holz. Unten links mit wohl nachträglicher Bezeichnung: A. Cuyp 16(...). 59,5 x 45 cm. Provenienz: - Sammlung P. Smidt van Gelder, Antwerpen, 1947 (als Aelbert Cuyp). - Stiftung Jakob Briner, Winterthur, Inv. Nr. 70. Literatur: Stiftung Jakob Briner, Rathaus Winterthur: Katalog der Gemälde, 1. Ausgabe 1970, Kat. Nr. 46, S. 14 (Inv. Nr. 70, als niederländisch, um 1640). Fred G. Meijer vom RKD, Den Haag, bestätigt die Eigenhändigkeit dieses Gemäldes anhand einer Fotografie, wofür wir ihm danken. Er weist darauf hin, dass mindestens zwei weitere Varianten dieser Komposition von Jacob Fransz. van der Merck bekannt sind. Im Archiv Cornelis Hofstede de Groot wird zudem eine monogrammierte Version erwähnt (H. d. G. fiches Nr. 307384). Jacob Fransz. van der Merck trat mit 18 Jahren der St. Lukas-Malergilde in Delft bei. Zu jener Zeit entstanden seine beiden Bildnisse 'Prinz Robert von der Pfalz als Knabe' und 'Prinzessin Henriette von der Pfalz als Kind'. Anschliessend wurde er ab 1637 als Mitglied der Malergilde in Den Haag aufgenommen, wo er bis ca. 1658 verweilte. Im Anschluss siedelte er nach Leiden um, wo er bis an seinem Lebensende wohnhaft blieb. Van der Merck spezialisierte sich auf Porträts, Genredarstellungen und Stillleben. Nur wenige seiner Werke sind heute noch auf dem Kunstmarkt anzutreffen, sodass diese hier angebotene Arbeit eine besondere Seltenheit darstellt. MERCK, JACOB FRANSZ.

Est: $15,000 - $20,000
Portrait of a boy and girl in pastoral dress, with a hound indistinctly signed, dated and inscribed with the age of the female sitter 'Aet 6/...Merck.f/165*' (lower right) oil on canvas 371/4 x 41 in. (94.6 x 104.2 cm.) NOTES Jacob van der Merck was born at 's-Gravendeel in 1610, and entered the Guild of Saint Luke at Delft, where he was accepted Master in 1631. He was widely traveled, and joined the Guilds of The Hague in 1636 and Dordrecht in 1640. From 1658 until his death he lived and worked as a portraitist and genre painter in Leiden. He was a versatile painter, best known for his charming informal portraits. The present work is typical of his output in his middle years, and of a type extremely popular in mid-seventeenth-century Holland. Children were often portrayed in Arcadian settings, and it is likely that this portrait was much influenced by the work of the Cuyp family in Dordrecht.
