NEW YORK, NY -- Doyle's auction on May 20, 2025 saw strong results for 19th Century & Old Master Paintings & Drawings spanning the Italian Renaissance through the early 19th century. The sale showcased a wide range of landscapes, still lifes, portraits and religious and mythological subjects.
Highlighting the sale was an 18th century French School view of Ships Loading Cargo in a Mediterranean Harbor estimated at $2,500-5,000 that achieved a stunning $38,500. Property of a Distinguished European Collector, the painting depicted a fantastical scene of sailing ships in a harbor surrounded by classical ruins.
The selection of Old Master drawings in the sale featured Studies of a Juvenile Spoonbill, Greenfinch, and Butterfly by Vincenzo Leonardi (Italian, 1589-1657) that sold to a private collector for $20,460, many times its $3,000-5,000 estimate. Consigned by the Estate of Joanne duPont Foster, the watercolor had a distinguished and lengthy provenance dating back to the prominent Roman collector Cassiano dal Pozzo (1588-1657). It was later sold to Pope Clement XI in 1703, and eventually to King George III of England in 1762, leaving the royal collection during the reign of King Edward VII.
