AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Very charming and atmospheric antique oil painting on a solid wooden panel, dating from the late 19th century (c. 1870–1900).

This finely painted cabinet piece shows three playing kittens on a red velvet background. The work is beautifully executed in the romantic tradition and strong school of the famous cat painters Henriëtte Ronner-Knip and Charles van den Eycken. The texture of the fur and the lively gaze of the kittens are expertly captured.

Medium used: oil on solid wooden panel (the reverse side shows the authentic dark patina of age).

The painting is unsigned but is believed to be attributed to a skilled master from the 19th-century Dutch/Belgian school.

The painting is mounted in a heavy, richly decorated gold-colored Baroque frame with beautiful corner ornaments.

Size of the painting: 30x24 cm.
