Description from the seller
EXCEPTIONALLY WITHOUT RESERVE!
Interesting 20th-century still life characterized by a lively and tactile composition, with two dark bottles placed at the sides of a large central vessel of slender form, accompanied by a lower container in the foreground. In the background appear numerous vases with flowers and foliage, creating a pleasant domestic setting.
The painting is executed with energetic and thick brushstrokes, with a warm palette dominated by ochre yellows, intense greens, oranges and browns. Light is rendered through strong color contrasts and reflections on the surfaces of the bottles and containers, giving the composition an expressive and decorative character.
The work bears a signature in the lower right.
The gold frame, wide and linear, well enhances the composition and complements its warm tones.
Photographs were taken also under spotlight to best show colors, details and the painterly surface.
The work shows normal signs and defects compatible with its age and history. The frame is regarded as a courtesy and therefore will not be counted in the lot in case of damages during transport. For each work we issue a certificate of guarantee.
Fast shipping and professional and meticulous packaging. Each work destined for countries outside the Schengen area will be shipped rolled in a dedicated tube, without frame and without stretcher.
