ANTIQUE #SA1055476

Still Life With Shell, Bottle And Feather - Oil On Canvas, 19th Century - Unsigned.

£460    $608    €521
Here is an supremely opulent and striking still life oil on canvas painting, featuring a shell, cranberry glass perfume bottle, Chinese tea cup and peacock feather - all set against a golden silk backdrop and emerald green wall.
 
The colours are incredibly rich and vibrant, all set off by the golden hue of the frame.
 
Painted by an accomplished hand, the use of light, and the highlights that the artist has picked out - from the reflection of the window in the glass of the scent bottle, to the ridges of the shell, all bring this painting to life.
 
The painting displays beautifully, but has the expected surface wear and craquelure of an oil painting of this age, but as I hope the photographs show, this doesn''t distract at all and the painting really draws the eye in and captivates the viewer. Please study the photographs so that you may see.
 
The painting measures 42cm by 38cm framed, and the canvas 26cm by 22cm.
 
Please do nit hesitate to get in touch if I can offer any furth...
