Post-impressionist Floral Still Life Oil Painting, Dated 1896

An original late 19th century period floral still life oil painting on canvas stitched or glued onto a board (canvas board or doek op karton), dated 1896.

The composition features a central green ceramic jug holding a bouquet of red gladioli. In the foreground sits a pocket watch or a compass in a wooden case alongside a small book.

The work is executed in a heavy impasto technique with a dark, muted tonal palette typical of late 19th-century Continental or Dutch post-impressionist intense colour genre. Also the signature style, although unidentifiable, suggests a Dutch or North European regional hand.

The painting is signed in the lower right above the clear date of 1896 and is housed in its period, rustic molded wooden frame.

The paint layer exhibits widespread, natural age-related craquelure throughout, consistent with its late-19th-century origin. The frame is structurally sound, showing light wear, surface scuffs, and minor separation at the mitered corners appropriate for its age.
