AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Eligio Agriconi
“Vaso di fiori con frutta”
Oil on cardboard dated 1943 - Historized
Dimensions: 59 x 64.5 cm in the frame
Painting: 46 x 50 cm
Refined still life realized in 1943, depicting a floral composition with vivid yellows and oranges, arranged in a ceramic jug, beside a plate with fruit.
The work stands out for its lively chromatic sensitivity and notable freshness of execution, expressed through a thick, rapid, and tactile brushstroke capable of imparting particular luminous intensity to the composition.
The palette, dominated by warm and vibrant tones, harmonizes with the delicate pinkish and purplish nuances of the background, creating a refined balance between color, light and painting material.
The painting bears witness to a figurative language of post-impressionist origin, characterized by spontaneous and expressive painting, in which the construction of forms occurs mainly through color.
A work of appreciable artistic quality, representative of the Italian artistic sensibility of the first half of the twentieth century.
Conservation state: a superficial patina and some signs of time are detectable, compatible with the proposed period.
*** Photographic note
The photographic images of the work (some) were taken with the aid of professional studio lighting and spotlights, to allow better legibility of the composition, details and painting material. Such lighting may cause slight variations in color perception and brightness compared with viewing the work directly. The photographs are for illustrative and documentary purposes only.
The frame is provided free of charge as a gift with the work and must therefore be considered an accessory element, not included in the economic evaluation of the painting. Given the natural fragility of antique and gilded frames, any damages, detachments, breakages or losses of parts of the frame occurring during transport or shipment cannot be the subject of reimbursement, indemnity or dispute concerning the value of the work. The packaging will, however, be prepared with the utmost care to ensure, as far as possible, a safe transport.
