Set of four landscapes in oil. Each one shows a different landscape, all with the presence of human figures, animals and buildings and clothing reminiscent of the fashion of northern Europe around the 18th century, or even before. In two of them there are buildings reminiscent of classical times (the bridge with the sculpture and that kind of arch), but as if they had been conceived by someone who had not seen these elements in reality. Although it may be thought that the landscapes are intended to represent Italy, since this country was the destination chosen by many young people on the Grand Tour (boom between the mid-17th century and the 1820s) Price per unit.

Devotional plaque, Saint Peter in tears. Bronze. Spanish school, 19th century. Devotional plaque made of bronze with a rectangular shape that has a washer at the top and a frame of smooth mouldings around a figurative relief. It shows a Christian theme known as “Saint Peter in tears” or “The repentance of Saint Peter”, being the moment in which the Apostle laments having denied Christ three times (hence the rooster on the column). Apparently, the piece shows a common iconography in a group of Castilian devotional plaques made since the end of the 16th century and throughout the 17th century, based on a chalcographic print (simplified and inverted) by Lèonard Gaultier (ca. 1561 - ca. 1635), and which was published by Jean Leclerc (1560 - ca. 1622). A similar piece to the present one is kept at the Museum of Fine Arts in Valencia. Weight: 152 grams.
