Beschrijving lot

Drawing, pen and brown ink, grey and yellow wash, 20 x 17,2 cm, laid paper with watermark (circle with crown), signed at statue base "W. Pompe f." (several brown stains).

Walter Pompe (1703-1777) was a Flemish master-sculptor, known for his religious works in wood. He was a student of Michiel Van de Voort, from Antwerp. Often he designed Baroque interiors for important churches such as the high altar of St Peter's church in Turnhout and the statues of the City Hall of Middelburg. Our drawing is very similar to a group of sculpture drawings now in the collection of the Museum of Art and History in Brussels (inv. 8852). The sheet contains a ms. note in the same brown ink, describing the height and costs of the intended statue "Mot koste 55 gulde wisselgelt / 3 voeten hogh".
