        SCHELLINKS, WILLEM (1627 Amsterdam 1678) The departure of Karl II. to England in 1660. Oil on canvas. Barely legible signature lower right: Wschellinks. 42.5 x 96.5 cm. Provenance: European private collection. Registered at RKD, The Hague as by the hand of Willem Schellinks. --------------- SCHELLINKS, WILLEM (1627 Amsterdam 1678) Die Abreise von Karl II. nach England im Jahre 1660. Öl auf Leinwand. Unten rechts schwer leserlich signiert: Wschellinks. 42,5 x 96,5 cm. Provenienz: Europäische Privatsammlung. Diese historische Darstellung stellt die Rückkehr des englischen Königs Karl II. nach England dar. Dieser befand sich zwischen 1651 und 1660 im Exil, weil das englische Parlament seine neue Regentschaft nach der Hinrichtung seines Vaters am 30.1.1649 nicht anerkannt hatte. Während neun Jahren verweilte Karl II. auf dem Kontinent, unter anderem auch in Den Haag. Erst 1659, als sich die Regierung unter Richard Cromwell (1626-1712) dem Ende näherte, wurde Karl II. durch General George Monk wieder dazu eingeladen, nach England zurückzukehren und den Thron zu besteigen. So stach Karl II. am 24. Mai 1660 von Scheveningen an der Küste von Den Haag in Richtung England in See und bestieg am 29. Mai 1660 den Thron, womit seine Königswürde offiziell wieder hergestellt wurde. Willem Schellinks, der auf topographische Darstellungen spezialisiert war, fängt diesen historischen Moment aus der Perspektive der holländischen Bevölkerung ein, die sich zahlreich an der Küste vor Den Haag versammelt hatte. Die dünnen Maste der holländischen Schiffe sind gerade noch am Horizont erkennbar, doch das Augenmerkmal des Künstlers fiel insbesondere auf die Vielfalt der versammelten Menschen, die alle genau beobachtet in ihren individualisierten Zügen festgehalten sind. Auch andere Künstler dieser Zeit hielten diese historische Szene malerisch fest, so beispielsweise Cornelis Beelt (1630-1702) in einem Gemälde, das sich heute im Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam befindet (Inv. Nr. SK- A-2692, Öl auf Leinwand, 109 x 173,5 cm). Das hier angebotene Gemälde ist im RKD, Den Haag, als ein eigenhändiges Werk von Willem Schellinks archiviert.

Botfield, Catalogue of Pictures in the possession of Beriah Botfield Esq. at Norton Hall, London, 1848, p. 47, 'Interior of a Study, with a Philosopher seated at a table, surrounded by books and papers'. B. Botfield, Catalogue of Pictures at Norton Hall, London, 1863, p. 36. NOTES The present picture is exceptional within the oeuvre of Willem Schellinks as his only known depiction of an interior. His output was until now thought to consist entirely of landscapes most of which are painted in the style of Jan Asselijn, under whom he is believed to have trained. Little is known about his life. He travelled through France in 1646, where he executed a number of landscape sketches, and then established himself in Amsterdam as a painter and a poet. He accompanied Jakob Thierry, the son of an Amsterdam ship dealer, on a Grand Tour in the early 1660s, returning to Holland in 1665 where, two years later, he married Maria Neus, the widow of the engraver Danker Dankerts. As observed when sold by Jan Teersteg in 1808, the picture appears to relate stylistically to Salomon Koninck (erroneously referred to as 'Philip Konig' in the Teersteg catalogue). Several comparable interiors by Koninck from the 1640s can be cited, including the picture in the present sale (see preceding lot). But the composition is perhaps nearest to the Louvre picture, in which an elderly philosopher is seated by a window with a similar spiral staircase on the left side. The refined handling of detail, particularly the objects on the table, is reminiscent of the work of the Leiden fijnschilders, and Gerrit Dou in particular (see, for example, his Interior with a Violinist, dated 1637, in the National Gallery of Scotland). Given these influences, it is tempting to speculate that Schellinks painted the present work in Amsterdam in his youth, before travelling to France, a period from which no other work by the artist is known.
