CHARLES JOSEPH DOMINIQUE EISEN (VALENCIENNES 1720 - BRUXELLES 1778)
Est: €5,000 - €8,000
Charles Joseph Dominique Eisen (Valenciennes 1720 - Bruxelles 1778) Allegoria delle arti Olio su tela 106,5 x 136,5 cm A nostro giudizio l'opera trova significativi riscontri con il Cupido esitato il 07/10/1998 presso la Casa d'Aste Dorotheum a Vienna. Inoltre notevoli somiglianze ci sono anche con la sua Allegoria delle Arti, in collezione privata, con cui condivide la figura di putto centrale seduto. Ad una attenta osservazione è possibile notare come queste opere siano accumunate dall'espressione tipica di Eisen, contrassegnata da una pennellata sicura e veloce, dalla resa vaporosa, ove il colore predomina sul disegno ed è caratterizzato, inoltre, da una cromia tenue e fredda con un effetto morbido e setoso. Charles Joseph Dominique Eisen apprese l'arte pittorica dal padre, passando in seguito presso Jacques-Philippe Le Bas. Proseguì la sua formazione seguendo i corsi dell'Accademia di San Luca a Parigi, di cui divenne vicedirettore anni dopo. Ebbe importanti incarichi di corte come disegnatore del re e maestro di disegno di Madame de Pompadour. In seguito a dei dissidi con quest'ultima fu costretto a lasciare Parigi per Bruxelles. Osservò e fece propria la pittura barocca del secolo precedente al suo, sottolineando l'importanza della lezione di P.P. Rubens e la sua pittura vorticante e briosa. Eisen si specializzò in temi allegorici, mitologici, scene di genere e scene di putti sulla scia di François Boucher. La sua opera viene riconosciuta al pari di molti altri artisti del suo tempo, impegnati in soggetti e scelte stilistiche simili alle sue, come Jean-Baptiste Greuze, Charles van Loo, Jean-Baptiste Deshay, Antoine Pesne, Charles-Joseph Flipart e Nicolas Lacret. Charles Joseph Dominique Eisen (Valenciennes 1720 - Brussels 1778) Allegory of the arts Oil on canvas 106,5 x 136,5 cm In our opinion the artwork finds comparisons with the Cupid hesitated on 07/10/1998 at Dorotheum Auction House in Vienna. There are also similarities with his Allegory of the Arts, private collection, with which he shares the figure of a seated central putto. It is possible to note how these artworks are united by the typical expression of Eisen, marked by a safe and fast brushstroke, with a vaporous rendering, where the color predominates over the drawing and is also characterized by a soft and cold color.

Schrift. -- -- Charles Eisen erhielt seine erste künstlerische Unterweisung bei seinem Vater François, bevor er sich 1742 nach Paris in die Lehre bei dem berühmten Stecher Le Bas begab. Seine größten Erfolge feierte Eisen als Buchillustrator, wie etwa für die Contes von La Fontaine 1772. Gleichzeitig avancierte er zum Zeichenlehrer der Madame de Pompadour und trug den Titel Dessinateur du roi. In der Pariser Académie de Saint-Luc stellte Eisen ab 1751 regelmäßig aus. Allein seine ungeschliffenen Manieren und sein allzu lockerer Lebenswandel verhinderten eine größere Karriere am Hofe. -- -- - Wir bitten darum, Zustandsberichte zu den Losen zu erfragen, da der Erhaltungszustand nur in Ausnahmefällen im Katalog angegeben ist. -- - Please ask for condition reports for individual lots, as the condition is usually not mentioned in the catalogue.

Basane racinée de l'ép., dos lisses fleuronnés dorés avec étiq. de cuirs vert et rouge, tr. jaspées de rouge (coiffes lég. frottées, pet. manque à la coiffe sup. et pet. coup au plat inf. du vol. I, coins émoussés). Premier tirage des 10 gravures non signées mais attribuables à Charles Eisen, portant uniquement le numéro du chant qu'elles illustrent. Édition traduite par Duperron de Castera (1707-1752), précédée d'une biographie de Camões (c. 1517- c.1579) et dont chaque chant est suivi d'un appareil critique. Jugeant que l'intérêt qu'on portait au Portugal était insuffisant, Camões partit pour les Indes en 1553 et vécut à Goa où, bien que fasciné par les exploits de ses compatriotes, il fut indigné par les abus pratiqués dans l'administration. Il en fit la critique dans une satire qui indigna tant le vice-roi de Goa qu'il fut exilé à Macao. C'est là qu'il rédigea ce célèbre poème à la gloire des Portugais dans lequel il relate l'expédition de Vasco de Gama. Réf. Cohen 200. - Reynaud 74. Prov. René Guyot (ex-libris armorié). Joint : Gracián, Baltasar - L'homme universel. Traduit de l'espagnol par le P. de Courbeville. Seconde édition. Rotterdam, J. Hofhout, 1729. In-12. Basane mouchetée de l'ép. (coiffe sup. manquante, mors part. fendus). Prov. J. De Walsche (mention ms. moderne). (3 vol.)

ATTRIBUTED TO CHARLES DOMINIQUE JOSEPH EISEN, (FRENCH 1720-1778), ALLEGORY OF ASTROLOGY
Est: $2,000 - $3,000
ATTRIBUTED TO CHARLES DOMINIQUE JOSEPH EISEN (french 1720-1778) ALLEGORY OF ASTROLOGY Pen and black ink, with gray and light brown washes, with touches of blue on a heavy bluff laid paper Sheet size: 11 3/4 x 9 3/8 in. (29.8 x 23.8cm) Unframed. provenance: Private Collection, Texas. NOTE: Both a painter and an engraver, Charles Eisen was known for his wit and humor, which gained him entry into the French court, where he became painter and draftsman to Louis XV, as well as drawing-master to his official mistress, Madame de Pompadour. He later fell in disgrace and ultimately retired to Brussels in 1777, where he died in poverty the following year. Although he executed many paintings throughout his career, Eisen is best known as a designer of illustrations and vignettes for books. This highly finished drawing is likely a design for an engraving, possibly a frontispiece. Many of Eisen's drawings are smaller, typically in graphite or red chalk. This sheet can be compared to a drawing by Eisen in the National Gallery, Washington, D.C. entitled "The Holy Family in the Carpenter's Shop" (circa 1755).
