JAN FRANS (AND PIETER?) VAN BLOEMEN, CALLED L'ORIZZONTE (Antwerp, 1662 - Rome, 1749)

Landscape with wayfarers crossing a wood and hills on the background

Oil on canvas, cm. 130x171,5. Framed

Signed lower left on the rock: "JF. BLOEMEN FECIT".
Jan Frans Van Bloemen and his brother Pieter arrived in Rome around 1687, after a first Italian stay in Turin. From there until Pieter's return to Antwerp, between the end of 1692 and the beginning of 1693, the two brothers often collaborated, although also carrying out a prolific independent activity, dividing the tasks between the figures and animals of Pieter's responsibility and the landscape entrusted to Jan Frans (who would soon become the landscape painter par excellence on the Roman art scene). This superb landscape with a caravan of wayfarers, executed on canvas "as an emperor", although bearing the signature of Jan alone, seems to correspond to the characteristics of the paintings attributable to the collaboration of the two brothers. In particular, it is worth noting here the affinities with the six large canvases, of measures similar to ours, which are kept at the Palazzo di Propaganda Fide in Rome, especially the one at n. 5 of Busiri Vici's catalog raisonné (p. 64, fig. 57), which presents evident analogies with ours in composition and landscape; but also with one of the two Lazio Landscapes without figures in the Doria Pamphili Gallery (Busiri Vici, p. 65, fig. 58 and cat. 8). For the figures, the comparison with wayfarers in the Lazio countryside at dusk, also in the Doria Pamphili Gallery (Busiri Vici, p. 68, fig. 63 and cat. 14) appears to be precise. Beyond the presence of Pieter, albeit hypothetical, within this luminous landscape of truly monumental breath, its rare location in Van Bloemen's production of the last decade of the seventeenth century, still at the beginning of his extraordinary Roman career.
