Matthäus Merian the Younger, painter in Van Dyck’s Studio: On an identified painting of Vertumnus and Pomona ; Matthäus Merian El Joven, pintor en el taller de Van Dyck: a propósito de un lienzo con Vertumno y Pomona identificado

The painting of Vertumnus and Pomona, signed “MMerian pinxit,” is a new contribution to Matthäus Merian the Younger’s oeuvre. This discovery offers an occasion to call attention to the artist, whose presence from 1639 in Anton van Dyck’s London studio has been overlooked. Analyses of style and sources of inspiration suggest coincidences with two other very vandyckian painters, Thomas Willeboirts Bosschaert and Peeter Thijs, which disclose a most interesting circuit of influences and interconnections in the shadow of Van Dyck, under whose impact their styles took shape. Thus, in search of more... Mehr ...

The painting of Vertumnus and Pomona, signed “MMerian pinxit,” is a new contribution to Matthäus Merian the Younger’s oeuvre. This discovery offers an occasion to call attention to the artist, whose presence from 1639 in Anton van Dyck’s London studio has been overlooked. Analyses of style and sources of inspiration suggest coincidences with two other very vandyckian painters, Thomas Willeboirts Bosschaert and Peeter Thijs, which disclose a most interesting circuit of influences and interconnections in the shadow of Van Dyck, under whose impact their styles took shape. Thus, in search of more light on the master’s relatively unknown London studio, the circumstances in which the young Merian came into contact with Van Dyck are reconstructed, while suggesting a virtual meeting with Peeter Thijs. ; El lienzo con Vertumno y Pomona, con la firma “MMerian pinxit”, es objeto de aportación al catálogo de Matthäus Merian el Joven, y motivo para recordar a este pintor, cuya presencia junto a Van Dyck en Londres en 1639 no ha tenido eco en los estudios dedicados al flamenco. Del análisis del estilo y las fuentes de inspiración se desprenden coincidencias con otros dos pintores muy vandyckianos, Thomas Willeboirts Bosschaert y Peeter Thijs, lo que abre un interesante circuito de transmisión de influencias e interconexiones a la sombra de Van Dyck, donde se forjaron sus estilos. Así, en busca de mayor luz sobre el tan desconocido taller inglés del pintor, se recrean las circunstancias que condicionarían el ingreso del joven Merian en su estudio, apuntando un probable encuentro con Peeter Thijs.
