Still life of white roses, an oil painting from the Netherlands dating to 1970–1980, framed, signed, original edition by Wil Smits (pseudonym W. Vermeer) and sold by Galerie.
Description from the seller
This is an oil painting of a still life of white roses. The work was created by Wil Smits (1941). The Eindhoven-based artist has been painting for over twenty years, almost exclusively still lifes, thus connecting with the long tradition that this genre holds within Dutch and Belgian painting.
Although the old masters are an important source of inspiration, Smits composes his works using a variety of antique objects from his own collection. His work is characterized by exceptionally refined detailing and a stunningly realistic depiction. In doing so, Wil Smits' paintings bridge historical painting and a contemporary approach to the classical still life.
The painting is signed with his pseudonym ‘W. Vermeer’.
Dimensions: 44 x 40 cm
Dimensions with frame: 60 x 56 cm
The work is available for viewing at our gallery. Furthermore, Art Dumay has a framing shop (celebrating their 85th anniversary this year) and a restoration studio. If you wish to make use of these services, we would be happy to hear from you.
