Isaac de Moucheron
(Amsterdam 1667–1744)
An Italianate terrace of a park, a palace to the left with elegant figures conversing by a fountain,
signed lower left: I. Moucheron. fecit,
oil on canvas, 66 x 82 cm, framed
The present painting is an excellent example of the art of Moucheron. Another version of the composition, without the elegant staffage and slightly cut to the left, was sold at Piasa, Paris, 25. 6. 2004, Lot 10 (€ 30,000).
Isaac de Moucheron studied under his father, Frederik de Moucheron. In circa 1695 he travelled to Italy where he stayed for the next couple of years, working predominantly in Rome. There, he was one of the ‘Schildersbent’, a society of Dutch and Flemish painters notorious for its bacchic rituals and opposition to the Roman Accademia di San Luca. On his return to Amsterdam in 1697, de Moucheron fostered an interest in classicist French masters such as Nicolas Poussin and Gaspard Dughet, copying and etching their work, and their influence on his landscapes was significant.
