Copy after Van Dyck, Virgin and Child


At William Bunch in Pennsylvania, 31 March 2015, they sell a "Continental School, 19th century" Madonna in Red with Jesus, estimated at $600 to $1,200. UPDATE: sold for $3,000!


It is a reasonably well executed copy of a Virgin and Child by Van Dyck, with some condition issues. The original is in the Walters Art Museum.


The next lot in the same sale is also described as Continental School, estimated at only $200 to $400. It is a copy after Murillo, quite easy to find so I'll not bother with a comparison image this time. UPDATE: they changed the description to indicate the Murillo link, and it sold for $1,300
