Description
American School (19th century), A Pair of Still Life Paintings
pastel on paper, each with "H" monogram and dated 1871, matted and framed under glass.
Frame dimensions 32 1/4 x 28 1/4 in.
This pair of still lifes by a talented, yet unknown, artist are excellent examples of the genre. The first features a Bristol glass pedestal bowl piled high with baked goods rising above a garniture of sweet fruits on the table. The second features a flint glass compote with an artfully arranged group of juicy peaches, the marble tabletop laden with more luscious fruits including an invitingly peeled orange.
