A hitherto unpublished painting of a Woman Potting a Sapling, recently acquired by the Pinacoteca Tosio Martinengo in Brescia, is here attributed to the Danish artist Eberhard Keilhau (1624-1687), better known in Italy as Monsù Bernardo. In addition to discussing the style of the canvas in order to establish its likely date in the mid-1650s, the author focuses on its iconography, identifying a pendant image in another work already ascribed to Monsù Bernardo, a Woman Holding a Sapling.

Abstract

A hitherto unpublished painting of a Woman Potting a Sapling, recently acquired by the Pinacoteca Tosio Martinengo in Brescia, is here attributed to the Danish artist Eberhard Keilhau (1624-1687), better known in Italy as Monsù Bernardo. In addition to discussing the style of the canvas in order to establish its likely date in the mid-1650s, the author focuses on its iconography, identifying a pendant image in another work already ascribed to Monsù Bernardo, a Woman Holding a Sapling.
