    Est: €15,000 - €16,000

    ANTONIO CARNICERO (Salamanca, 1748 - Madrid, 1814). "Female portrait" and "Male portrait". Charcoal pencil and charcoal on paper. The female portrait has red numbering corresponding to the Artistic Recovery Service. Measurements: 42,5 x 33 cm; 59 x 51,5 cm (frame). Antonio Carnicero achieved great fame as a portrait painter, even immortalizing monarchs such as Fernando VII. On this occasion he offers us a male portrait and a female portrait that share common features: their serene gazes, fixed on the viewer, with no other symbols of their rank than the dignity of their faces and the richness of their clothes, which follow the prevailing Spanish fashion in Europe at the time. Painter and engraver, son of the baroque sculptor Alejandro Carnicero, he was also an excellent miniaturist. He entered the San Fernando Academy in Madrid at the age of ten, and accompanied his brother Isidro to Rome. He remained in the Italian capital for six years, perfecting his art and participating in various artistic competitions, being awarded prizes in several of them. On his return to Spain he completed his training at the Madrid Academy. During these years he began his collaboration with José del Castillo, with whom he worked from 1775 onwards on cartoons for tapestries for the Royal Factory, destined to decorate the rooms of the Princess of Asturias in the palace of El Pardo. As a draftsman he illustrated the editions of "Don Quixote" published by the Royal Spanish Academy in 1780 and 1782. In 1790 he made preparatory drawings for engravings, among them his outstanding series entitled "Tauromaquia". In 1796 and after previous failed attempts, he was appointed Pintor de Cámara de Carlos IV. Between that date and 1799, he made the illustrations for the book "El Real Picadero", commissioned by Manuel Godoy, which he was unable to finish. He also collaborated with the "Colección de trajes", a series on the popular types in Spain, making between 1778 and 1784 seven illustrations with typical characters of the Balearic Islands. His scenes of dances and walks, or the flights of Montgolfier balloons, are ascribed to the Rococo style. However, in his portraits a greater classicism can be appreciated, as can be seen in his "Portrait of Carlos IV with armor" and in the "Portrait of Manuel Godoy". Among the variety of styles and genres treated by the artist is a work of exceptional character, "The Allegory of Vigilance", with a moral theme, painted with dramatic hallmarks of light and shadow that anticipate the romantic aesthetics of the sublime. In the 1780s Carnicero worked on a series of oil paintings with views of roads and ports, originally commissioned by Carlos III to Mariano Ramón Sánchez, which reflects the sophisticated cultural and enlightened interest of the time in the historical, archaeological and geographical heritage of the country. During these years the painter was sent to Aranjuez as drawing teacher of Prince Ferdinand. In connection with this he served a month in prison in 1806, after the incidents of the so-called "Prince's trial". However, after his imprisonment he agreed to remain in his position as Painter to the King. The usurpation of Joseph I Bonaparte meant his fall from grace, but after the restoration of the government of Ferdinand VII he was restored to his post. Butcher is represented in the Prado Museum, the Municipal Museum of Madrid, the Academy of San Fernando, the Lázaro Galdiano of Madrid and the Museum of Fine Arts of Bilbao, among others.

    Attributed to ANTONIO CARNICERO MANCIO (Salamanca, 1748 - Madrid, 1814). "Carlos IV", ca. 1800. Oil on canvas. Re-drawn. It presents restorations. Measurements: 101 x 79, 5 cm. Dressed in a maroon silk suit, embroidered in gold, the monarch holds with his hand the command staff of captain general, while he rests the other one on his waist. The cross and the sash of the Order of Charles III, as well as that of San Gennaro of Naples, hang glittering above the robe. The golden fleece can also be seen. Aesthetically, the works are close to the paintings of Antonio Carnicero, who achieved great fame as a portrait painter and immortalised the monarchs on numerous occasions. It is also worth mentioning that in many of his works Carnicero worked in small formats, demonstrating great mastery. Aesthetically the work is close to the precepts of the painter and engraver, son of the Baroque sculptor Alejandro Carnicero, he was also an excellent miniaturist. He entered the San Fernando Academy in Madrid at the age of ten and accompanied his brother Isidro to Rome. He remained in the Italian capital for six years, perfecting his art and taking part in various artistic competitions, winning prizes in several of them. On his return to Spain he completed his training at the Madrid Academy. Around this time he began to collaborate with José del Castillo, with whom he worked from 1775 onwards on tapestry cartoons for the Royal Factory, intended to decorate the rooms of the Princess of Asturias in the palace of El Pardo. As a draughtsman he illustrated the editions of Don Quixote published by the Royal Spanish Academy in 1780 and 1782. In 1790 he made preparatory drawings for engravings, among them his outstanding series entitled "Tauromaquia". In 1796, after previous unsuccessful attempts, he was appointed Pintor de Cámara (Chamber Painter) to Charles IV. Between that date and 1799 he did the illustrations for the book "El Real Picadero", commissioned by Manuel Godoy, which he was nevertheless unable to complete. He also collaborated with the "Colección de trajes" (Costume Collection), a series on popular types in Spain, producing between 1778 and 1784 seven illustrations of typical characters from the Balearic Islands. His scenes of dancing and strolling, or the flights of Montgolfier balloons, are in the Rococo style. However, his portraits are more classicist, as can be seen in his "Portrait of Charles IV in Armour" and "Portrait of Manuel Godoy". Among the variety of styles and genres treated by the artist is an exceptional work, "The Allegory of Vigilance", with a moral theme, painted with dramatic contrasts of light and shade that anticipate the Romantic aesthetic of the sublime. In the 1780s Carnicero worked on a series of oil paintings with views of roads and ports, originally commissioned by Charles III from Mariano Ramón Sánchez, which reflects the sophisticated cultural and enlightened interest of the time in the historical, archaeological and geographical heritage of the country. During these years the painter was sent to Aranjuez as drawing teacher to Prince Ferdinand. In connection with this he served a month in prison in 1806, following the incidents of the so-called "Prince's trial". However, after his imprisonment he agreed to remain in his post as Painter to the King. The usurpation of Joseph I Bonaparte led to his fall from grace, but after the restoration of Ferdinand VII's government he was restored to his post.

    Attributed to ANTONIO CARNICERO MANCIO (Salamanca, 1748 - Madrid, 1814). "Portrait of Charles IV and Maria Luis de Parma", c.1805. Pair of oil paintings on canvas. Re-framed. They conserve frames of style Carlos IV, c 1800, adapted. Measurements: 40 x 27 cm (x2); 49 x 36 cm (frames, x2). Pair of paintings representing the monarchs Charles IV and his wife Maria Luisa of Parma. In both cases the artist has respected the aesthetic guidelines typical of court portraits, with both protagonists situated in the centre of the scene, with an upright and regal posture leaning, in the case of the king, on his baton of command, and in the case of the queen, on her crown of sovereignty. The two portraits are set in an interior space that is notable for its pomp and magnificence. Aesthetically, the works are close to the painting of Antonio Carnicero, who achieved great fame as a portrait painter and immortalised the monarchs on numerous occasions. It is also worth mentioning that in many of his works Carnicero worked in small formats, demonstrating great mastery.

    Est: €38,000 - €40,000

    Attributed to ANTONIO CARNICERO MANCIO (Salamanca, 1748 - Madrid, 1814). "Portrait of Charles IV and Maria Luis de Parma", c.1805. Pair of oil paintings on canvas. Re-framed. They conserve frames of style Carlos IV, c 1800, adapted. Measurements: 40 x 27 cm (x2); 49 x 36 cm (frames, x2). Pair of paintings representing the monarchs Charles IV and his wife Maria Luisa of Parma. In both cases the artist has respected the aesthetic guidelines typical of court portraits, with both protagonists situated in the centre of the scene, with an upright and regal posture leaning, in the case of the king, on his baton of command, and in the case of the queen, on her crown of sovereignty. The two portraits are set in an interior space that is notable for its pomp and magnificence. Aesthetically, the works are close to the painting of Antonio Carnicero, who achieved great fame as a portrait painter and immortalised the monarchs on numerous occasions. It is also worth mentioning that in many of his works Carnicero worked in small formats, demonstrating great mastery. A painter and engraver, son of the Baroque sculptor Alejandro Carnicero, he was also an excellent miniaturist. He entered the San Fernando Academy in Madrid at the age of ten and accompanied his brother Isidro to Rome. He remained in the Italian capital for six years, perfecting his art and taking part in various artistic competitions, winning prizes in several of them. On his return to Spain he completed his training at the Madrid Academy. Around this time he began to collaborate with José del Castillo, with whom he worked from 1775 onwards on tapestry cartoons for the Royal Factory, intended to decorate the rooms of the Princess of Asturias in the palace of El Pardo. As a draughtsman he illustrated the editions of Don Quixote published by the Royal Spanish Academy in 1780 and 1782. In 1790 he made preparatory drawings for engravings, among them his outstanding series entitled "Tauromaquia". In 1796, after previous unsuccessful attempts, he was appointed Pintor de Cámara (Chamber Painter) to Charles IV. Between that date and 1799 he did the illustrations for the book "El Real Picadero", commissioned by Manuel Godoy, which he was nevertheless unable to complete. He also collaborated with the "Colección de trajes" (Costume Collection), a series on popular types in Spain, producing between 1778 and 1784 seven illustrations with typical characters from the Balearic Islands. His scenes of dancing and strolling, or the flights of Montgolfier balloons, are in the Rococo style. However, his portraits are more classicist, as can be seen in his "Portrait of Charles IV in Armour" and "Portrait of Manuel Godoy". Among the variety of styles and genres treated by the artist is an exceptional work, "The Allegory of Vigilance", with a moral theme, painted with dramatic contrasts of light and shade that anticipate the Romantic aesthetic of the sublime. In the 1780s Carnicero worked on a series of oil paintings with views of roads and ports, originally commissioned by Charles III from Mariano Ramón Sánchez, which reflects the sophisticated cultural and enlightened interest of the time in the historical, archaeological and geographical heritage of the country. During these years the painter was sent to Aranjuez as drawing teacher to Prince Ferdinand. In connection with this he served a month in prison in 1806, following the incidents of the so-called "Prince's trial". However, after his imprisonment he agreed to remain in his post as Painter to the King. The usurpation of Joseph I Bonaparte led to his fall from grace, but after the restoration of Ferdinand VII's government he was restored to his post. Carnicero is represented in the Prado Museum, the Madrid Municipal Museum, the San Fernando Academy, the Lázaro Galdiano Museum in Madrid and the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum, among others.

    ANTONIO CARNICERO (1748 / 1814). """Ferdinand VII as Prince of Asturias"", c. 1791 "

    Est: €54,000 - €72,000

    Cutting portrait of exceptional quality representing Ferdinand VII at about seven years of age. The figure of the child is framed by iconographic elements of his status as heir to the throne, such as the armchair and the ermine lined cloak, wearing Charles III's fleece and band. In 1789 he was proclaimed Prince of Asturias, and according to his age and the style of painting, characteristic of those made by this painter around 1790, it could be dated around 1791. The technique of execution of the face and the costume are those typical of Carnicero in portrait painting, with the figure standing out against the background of warm tones. A certificate from Enrique Valdivieso is attached, attributing the painting to Carnicero. ANTIQUE AND STYLE PAINTING

    Est: €30,000 - €35,000

    Antonio Carnicero (1748 - 1814) "Portrait of Ferdinand VII as Prince of Asturias" Oil on canvas. Circa 1791. 126 x 91 cm. Carnicero was named Chamber Painter of Charles IV in 1796. He was Ferdinand VII´s painting tutor, and painted his portrait on various occasions, also painting his brothers, Carlos María Isidro and Francisco de Paula. In his report, Enrique Valdivieso highlights that "With regard to this child portrait of Ferdinand VII, it can be noted that Carnicero had the creative spirit of Goya with him at that time, and for this reason there are many stylistic references to the great painter. In this painting, he made an enormous effort to imitate Goya´s style, both in the boy´s physical expression and the description of the suit he is wearing as well as in the way of arranging the furniture and curtains in the background, inspiring a gentle and intimate image.” The painting comes with Enrique Valdivieso González´s report dated February 2017.
