Danish golden age painter, first half of the 19th century
Casa del Portinaio in the garden of Villa Borghese in Rome. Unsigned. Oil on paper laid on canvas. 33×38 cm.
Casa del Portinaio has also been known as Raphael's studio, when in the early 1800s the building was mistakenly considered the former home of the Renaissance artist Raphael (1483–1520). The motif was therefore incredibly popular among painters in the 19th century, and Danish painters such as C.W. Eckersberg (1783–1853), Martinus Rørbye (1803–1848) and Jørgen Roed (1808–1888) have depicted the iconic house. The building was also called Casa Cenci. It does not exist today.
Minimal peeling. Repairs, retouches and a long the edge crackles. In need of a light surface cleaning.
