AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Eligio Agriconi
“Vase of Flowers with Fruit”
Oil on cardboard, 1943 – Period-documented
Measurements: 59 x 64.5 cm framed
Painting: 46 x 50 cm
A refined still life painted in 1943, depicting a floral arrangement in vivid yellow and orange tones, arranged in a ceramic jug beside a plate of fruit.
The work stands out for its lively sensitivity to color and remarkable freshness of execution, expressed through a substantial, quick, and richly textured brushstroke that lends particular luminosity to the composition.
The palette, dominated by warm, vibrant tones, harmonizes with the delicate pink and violet hues of the background, creating a refined balance between color, light, and painterly texture.
The painting bears witness to a post-Impressionist figurative style, characterized by spontaneous, expressive painting, in which forms are constructed primarily through color.
A work of appreciable artistic quality, representative of Italian artistic sensibility in the first half of the twentieth century.
Condition: A surface patina and some signs of age are visible, consistent with the period stated.
*** Photography note
Some of the photographs of the work were taken using professional studio lighting and spotlights to make the composition, details, and painterly texture easier to see. This lighting may cause slight variations in the perception of color and brightness compared with viewing the work in person. The photographs are for illustrative and documentary purposes only.
The frame is provided free of charge as a gift with the artwork and should therefore be considered an accessory, not included in the painting’s valuation. Given the natural fragility of antique, gilded frames, any damage, detachment, breakage, or loss of frame components occurring during transport or shipping will not be grounds for a refund, compensation, or a dispute concerning the value of the artwork. The work will nevertheless be packed with the utmost care to ensure, as far as possible, safe transport.
Insured shipping and sales document; lawful provenance.
