AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Realistic still life by Johannes (Hans) Habraken (born 1946), executed in oil on panel and signed bottom right. The panel measures 40 x 50 cm; including the frame about 49 x 59 cm.
On a wooden tabletop, a carefully balanced ensemble is built around a metal jug and a green drinking glass. On the left lie blue grapes and a halved lemon, whose long spiraling rind stretches across the foreground. On the right, a braided basket with peaches and light grapes forms the focal point, complemented by a bunch of grapes draped over the edge of the table. Large wine leaves connect the different parts of the composition.
Characteristic is the precise handling of diverse surfaces: the cool light on the metal, the transparent green of the glass, the gloss of the grapes, and the soft skin of the fruit. The predominantly warm palette of ocher, brown, and red tones is enlivened by blue-violet grapes and green accents. Against the dark, restrained background, the objects stand out strongly through directed highlights.
Artist biography
Johannes (Hans) Habraken, born on 11 March 1946, is a Dutch painter who is especially known for his realistically executed still lifes. His oeuvre also includes landscapes, seascapes and portraits, but still lifes form a recurring and recognizable part of his work. He mostly paints in oil on panel and works with a predominantly warm color palette. Within his still lifes, the depiction of texture and the interaction between light and different materials—a glass, metal, ceramics, fruit and other everyday objects—play an important role and are carefully arranged against one another.
