      Quirijn van Brekelenkam

      Est: €12,000 - €15,000

      (Zwammerdam circa 1620–1668 Leiden) A kitchen maid cleaning fish, signed and dated on the table: Quierijn 1664, oil on panel, 32 x 28 cm, framed Provenance: sale, Christie’s, London, 10 December 1993, lot 276 (as Quiringh Gerritsz. van Brekelenkam; a pair); sale, Koller, Zurich, 15 September 1994, lot 16 (sold for CHF 25,520); sale, Dorotheum, Vienna, 17 October 1995, lot 126 (as Quirin van Brekelenkam); Private collection, Vienna The present painting is listed in the RKD database under no. 0000009972 (as Quiringh van Brekelenkam). The present painting may possibly be the pendant to Old man seated at a table, holding a stoneware jug and a pipe that is listed in the RKD database under no. 214376 (as Quiringh van Brekelenkam), which was last sold at Koller, Zürich, 18-21 September 2007, lot 3048 (sold for CHF 28,000), and is likely to be the same painting as appeared last as a pair at Christie’s, London (see provenance). Quirijn van Brekelenkam was a Dutch Baroque genre painter, who is thought to have trained in Leiden, possibly under Gerrit Dou (1613–1675). In 1648, together with several other painters, he cofounded the Guild of Saint Luke in Leiden. Though related in subject matter to the Leiden Fijnschilders that centred around Dou, Brekelenkam distinguished himself by preferring a looser manner of handling, which has been compared to that of Gabriel Metsu (1629–1667), in part thanks to his reluctance of prettifying his scenes of ‘simple folk’. The present painting belongs to a long tradition of images of female food sellers and maids at work which stretches back to the market and kitchen scenes painted by Pieter Aertsen and his pupil Joachim Beuckelaer in the mid-sixteenth century. More direct visual prototypes for Brekelenkam’s Maid cleaning fish can be found in Metsu’s A young woman cleaning fish, with a cat (circa 1656–58, private collection) and Dou’s Kitchen maid with fish and a boy with a hare in a window (1652, Staatliche Kunsthalle, Karlsruhe).

      Quiringh van Brekelenkam, A Sleeping Pipe Smoker

      Est: €8,000 - €12,000

      RefMas121121 Monogrammed lower centre: Q.V. B. Like his teacher Gerrit Dou, Brekelenkam specialised in genre scenes, with representations taken from daily life. Many of his paintings include several figures - works with single figures such as the present are much less common. Because of their concentration of one figure, they are more personal and intimate, which is particulary the case in this painting. Our work can be compared with Brekelenkam´s "Mouse Trap" in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, which is dated 1660. Both paintings share the same intimate approach and the brown tonality is eqaully comparable. Brekelenkam´s loose handling of the brush can be beautifully observed in this very well preserved and charming painting.

      Oil on Canvas Painting Attributed to van Brekelenkam The Philosopher Quiringh Gerritsz. van Brekelenkam Size: 14 1/2 x 12 1/2 in. Frame: 20 x 17 3/4 in. Quirijn or Quiringh Gerritsz van Brekelenkam (1622/29, Zwammerdam – 1669/79, Leiden), was a Dutch Baroque genre painter. He probably studied under Gerard Dou, and as a result his paintings from the 1640s and 1650s are similar to those of the Leiden fijnschilders.
