Condition

The following condition report has been provided by Simon Parkes of Simon Parkes Art Conservation, Inc. 502 East 74th St. New York, NY 212-734-3920, simonparkes@msn.com, an independent restorer who is not an employee of Sotheby's. This work has not been recently restored. The panel is made from a single piece of oak, which is flat and unreinforced. The paint layer is stable and in beautiful condition. A few small spots of retouching have been added in the pale wall behind the figure and to a thin scratch in one of the barrels on the left side, but there are hardly any retouches within the figure and the elements that surround him. This work would respond beautifully to cleaning and careful sparing retouches.
"This lot is offered for sale subject to Sotheby's Conditions of Business, which are available on request and printed in Sotheby's sale catalogues. The independent reports contained in this document are provided for prospective bidders' information only and without warranty by Sotheby's or the Seller."

拍品資料及來源

Though we have very little documentary information about Gerard Donck, his distinctive style of painting and a significant body of published prints reveal a recognizable artistic personality.  He was a portraitist and genre painter, possibly active in Amsterdam, and his works reflect the influence of Thomas de Keyser.  He also furnished illustrations for J. H. Krul's De Pampiere Wereld, an extremely influential emblem book first published in 1644.
