Description

FASCINATING 19TH-CENTURY ANTIQUE ITALIAN STILL LIFE IMPRESSIONIST OLD MASTER OIL PAINTING ON CANVAS. (Circa 1800s) THIS WORK IS SO PROFOUND. WHERE DO I BEGIN? THE EPITOME OF GREATNESS. EXQUISITELY RENDERED THROUGHOUT EVERY ENTICING BRUSH STROKE. THE OVERSIZED NEOCLASSICAL STYLIZED VASE IS ADORNED WITH TINY GREEK ROMANIZED FIGURES THAT CAPTURE THE VIEWER'S CURIOSITY OF WONDERMENT. THE APOLLO, GREEK MYTHOLOGY GOD, IS SHOWN STANDING OVER A MAN POURING A WOMAN A DRINK. A SLICED WATERMELON AND GRAPES RESTING NEXT TO A STYLIZED CHALICE CENTRALIZED BY EXOTIC FLOWERS AND A WHITE PARROT SITTING ON THE FAR END. MOUNTAINS ARE SHOWN IN THE BACKGROUND, BACKED BY THE SUN SETTING OVER THE HORIZON. THIS IS A VERY IMPOSING AND THOUGHT-PROVOKING PAINTING. WELL OVER 150 YEARS OLD. THERE’S SOME WRITING ON THE REAR STRETCHER THAT APPEARS TO BE A FADED SIGNATURE, ALONG WITH OTHER WRITING. PERHAPS YOU RECOGNIZE THE ARTIST? IT DATES AROUND THE 1800s. IT’S IN GOOD OVERALL CONDITION FOR A PIECE OF THIS AGE. THERE’S MILD PAINT LOSS, AS SHOWN. THE FRAME HAS SCRATCHES AND CHIPS; HOWEVER IT DOES NOT DETRACT FROM ITS BEAUTY IN ANY WAY. PROVENANCE: PRIVATE COLLECTION, BEVERLY HILLS, CA. DIMENSIONS: 32” H x 44” W
