Anthony van Dyck

Anthony van Dyck, a leading Flemish Baroque painter and draughtsman, is represented here by a compact but telling group of sheets that move between portraiture, figure studies and landscape. The collection gathers 32 works, dominated by oil on canvas and oil on wood, alongside pen-and-brown-ink drawings, some with brush and brown wash, and a sheet combining ink with black chalk on the verso. The material spans 1615 to 1650, with impressions up to that later date, and ranges from equestrian and aristocratic portraits to head studies, trees and devotional subjects such as Christ on the Cross.
