Summary

edit
Description
English: Oil painting on canvas, Venus and Organ Player (after Titian), attributed to Miguel de la Cruz (active c.1630-1660), circa 1625/45. Naked Venus reclines centre right, in an open interior, the walls draped with red velvet curtains. A pipe organ to the left is played by a man. The original of about 1555 was in Philip IV's collection and is now in the Prado, Madrid. Another version of this work, also in the Prado, in which Venus is caressing a small dog and looking downwards and there is no putto was originally owned by Charles I, and was bought for Philip IV of Spain at the auction of Charles I's collection. This picture at Ham House is a copy of the former. The frame is of the 1670s.
