English: Acquisition of the Month, September 2015 An Oil Study by Thomas Willeboirts Bosschaert Nationalmuseum’s collection of Baroque paintings has been enriched by a work by Flemish painter Thomas Willeboirts Bosschaert. The painting is an oil head study of a mischievous-looking boy with rosy cheeks and abundant curly blond hair, painted in the mid-1640s. Leaning back slightly, his head cocked to one side, the model meets the viewer’s glance with curiosity, but also with reserve. Probably, this is a so-called tronie, a preparatory study intended to be used for many different compositions. The boy was, for example, used as a model for the god of love in the allegorical painting of Amor Triumphant Amongst the Emblems of Art, Science and War, painted circa 1645 in collaboration with the still-life painter Paul de Vos. The latter work formed part of the art collection of Swedish Queen Lovisa Ulrika in the 18th century and now belongs to Nationalmuseum. Thomas Willeboirts Bosschaert (1613-1654) was apprenticed to the history painter Gerard Seghers at Antwerp. In 1637 Willeboirts became a master in Antwerp’s Guild of St. Luke as was also awarded his citizenship. Shortly thereafter, he received an invitation by the city’s leading, internationally renowned painter Peter Paul Rubens, to collaborate on a series of paintings commissioned by the Spanish king Philip IV for his hunting lodge, the Torre de la Parada. Despite his close collaboration with Rubens, the most important source of inspiration for Willeboirts was the work of the younger artist Anthony van Dyck. Indeed, Willeboirts achieved great success with his own elegant painting in the spirit of Van Dyck. He received, among others, several large commissions from the Dutch Stadtholder at The Hague, Prince Fredrik Hendrik of Orange. Between 1642 and 1647, Willeboirts executed a series of 17 paintings with mythological subjects for the Stadtholder’s country residence, the Huis ten Bosch. Amor Triumphant represents the first occasion on which the boy’s head was employed as a preparatory study in Willeboirts’ production. While the pose and lighting have been retained in the larger work, the boy has now metamorphosed into a beautiful youth with golden locks. Already in the 16th century Frans Floris had used tronies in his extensive workshop production, but it was Rubens who reintroduced them as part of the creative process. Although often connected originally with specific paintings, they also formed an important part of the artist’s store of patterns. Kept in the studio for future use, they were frequently copied, both within and outside the studio, and were sold as independent works of art. Willeboirts’ charming head study of a boy soon became a favorite among his artist colleagues at Antwerp, who, like the artist himself often made use of it. The newly acquired work, previously owned by the Stirling family at Keir House in Scotland, is one of two known autograph replicas. The acquisition was made possible by a generous contribution by the Friends’ Association of the Nationalmuseum. The Museum has no funds of its own for the acquisition of paintings and applied arts, and the collections grow through the gifts and funds made available by private individuals and foundations. Inventory number: NM 7295 Månadens nyförvärv, September 2015: Nationalmuseums samling av barockmåleri har utökats med ett verk av den flamländske konstnären Thomas Willeboirts Bosschaert. Det är en oljestudie av en pojke med busig uppsyn, rosiga kinder och blond korkskruvslockig kalufs målad vid mitten av 1640-talet. Med huvudet något bakåtlutat och litet på sned möter modellen nyfiket, men samtidigt avvaktande, betraktarens blick. Antagligen rör det sig om en så kallad ”tronie”, en förstudie tänkt att användas för olika kompositioner. Pojken har bland annat stått modell för kärleksguden i den allegoriska målningen Amor triumferande bland konstens, vetenskapens och krigets emblem, utförd omkring år 1645 i samarbete med stillebenmålaren Paul de Vos. Verket ingick i drottning Lovisa Ulrikas konstsamling på 1700-talet och tillhör nu Nationalmuseum. Thomas Willeboirts Bosschaert (1613-1654) gick i lära hos historiemålaren Gerard Seghers i Antwerpen. 1637 blev han mästare i Lukasgillet och tillika borgare i staden. Kort därpå blev han inbjuden av Antwerpens ledande konstnär, den internationellt kände Peter Paul Rubens, för att samarbeta kring en serie målningar för den spanske kungen Filip IV:s jaktslott Torre de la Parada. Trots det nära samarbetet med Rubens var det istället den yngre konstnären Anthonis van Dycks måleri som blev Willeboirts främsta inspirationskälla. Han blev mycket framgångsrik med sitt eget eleganta bildspråk i van Dycks anda och fick bland annat flera större uppdrag av den holländske ståthållaren i Haag, Fredrik Hendrik av Oranien. Mellan 1642 till 1647 utförde Willeboirts en serie om 17 målningar med mytologiska teman för lustslottet Huis ten Bosch. Amor triumferande är den första kompositionen i Willeboirts produktion där studien av pojkhuvudet använts som förlaga. Pose och ljussättning har bibehållits men pojken har förvandlats till en skön yngling med guldlockigt hårsvall. Redan på 1500-talet använde Frans Floris sig av ”tronies” i sin omfattande verkstadsproduktion, men det var Rubens som återinförde dem som en del av den kreativa processen. Ofta tillkom studierna i direkt anslutning till specifika verk och utgjorde en viktig del av konstnärens idébank. De förvarades i ateljén för framtida bruk och kopierades flitigt, både inom och utom ateljén, för att säljas som självständiga konstverk. Willeboirts charmiga pojkhuvud blev en favorit bland konstnärskollegorna i Antwerpen, som liksom konstnären själv flitigt använde sig av det. Förvärvet är en av två egenhändiga repliker och har tidigare ingått i familjen Stirlings samling på Keir House i Skottland. Det har möjliggjorts genom ett generöst bidrag från Nationalmusei Vänner. Het Nationalmuseum heeft een mede-eigenaar van konst en konsthantverk voor een groep mensen die gebruik maken van privé-stiften en fondmedels.
