Lot 429 | Petrus CHRISTUS (c.1410-c.1475)
Petrus CHRISTUS (c.1410-c.1475) Portrait Elisabeth Braderyck
Öl auf Leinwand, um 1470 oder 19. Jh.
47 x 34 cm, Rahmen: 53 x 39,5 cm

Dieses in der kunstgeschichtlichen Forschung schon öfters behandelte Werk, welches aus der Sammlung Leo Nardes / Frankreich kam, wurde 1907 noch Hans Memling zugeschrieben und war auf Holz gemalt 1925 wurde es versteigert. Im Auktionskatalog wurde festgehalten, dass das Gemälde 1908 von Holz auf Leinwand übertragen wurde. Mittlerweile wird das Bild Petrus Christus zugeschrieben, doch in der Forschung wird bis heute gerätselt, ob es sich um ein Werk aus der Zeit um 1470 handelt oder um eine Arbeit des 19. Jh. Seit 1955 befand es sich in der Schweiz und ist nun erstmals wieder aufgetaucht. Zur Geschichte siehe ausführlich: Lola B. Gellman, Two Lost Portraits by Petrus Christus, in: M.W. Ainsworth, Petrus Christus in Renaissance Bruges, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1995, S. 101-114.

Petrus CHRISTUS (c.1410-c.1475)
Portrait of Elisabeth Braderyck
Oil on canvas, around 1470 or 19th c.
47 x 34 cm, frame: 53 x 39.5 cm

This work, which has often been discussed in art historical research and came from the Leo Nardes collection in France, was attributed to Hans Memling in 1907 and was painted on wood. It was auctioned in 1925. The auction catalog noted that the painting was transferred from wood to canvas in 1908. The picture is now attributed to Peter Christ, but researchers are still puzzled today as to whether it is a work from around 1470 or a work from the 19th century. It has been in Switzerland since 1955 and is now for the first time appeared again. For more information on the history, see: Lola B. Gellman, Two Lost Portraits by Petrus Christus, in: M.W. Ainsworth, Petrus Christus in Renaissance Bruges, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1995, pp. 101-114.
