Very Fine Petite Antique Antwerp School Academic Still-life Painting in the Manner of Osias Beert

Anonymous, Monogrammed L.B.C. (?)
19th or 20th century; Northern Europe
Oil on panel; ebony or stained wood frame

Approximate size: 6 (h) x 7.5 (w) x .75 (d) in. 

This small but lively painting reflects a carefully curated selection of objects typical of Osias Beert’s oeuvre with lustrous fruits, such as plump grapes and ripe peaches, rendered with a tactile realism that invites viewers to reach out and touch them. The play of light on the surfaces creates a brilliant interplay of reflections and shadows, accentuating the three-dimensionality of each item.

Condition commensurate with age. Minor nicks to the frame. Minor scratches or losses to the painted surface.
