Still life, an oil painting on canvas from Germany, dating to the 1960s–1970s, signed bottom right.
Description from the seller
Fascinating richly textured oil still life on canvas, 50x40 cm, signed bottom right.
The work depicts a floral arrangement rendered with a thick impasto and soft colors. At the center of the scene stand a fruit cup, a pear, apples, a blue-decorated container, and a vase of flowers, arranged on a dark surface with a painterly, lively background rich in chromatic variations.
The painting presents a lively and material rendering, with visible impastos and bold brushstrokes especially in the fruit, the flowers, and the light areas. The decorative setup and the color palette suggest a placement in the second half of the 20th century, roughly the 1960s/1970s.
Work attributable to the European school of the 20th century, signed bottom right.
