Attrib. Henry Andrews (1794-1868) - Mid 19th Century Oil, An Elegant CoupleUnknown
Unknown
About the Item
We are thrilled to have acquired this fine mid 19th Century oil, attributed to the genre scene painter Henry Andrews (1794-1868). The scene shows an elegantly dressed couple, the woman in a flowing white dress and the man in britches and a rust coloured , velvet jacket and a jauntily angled hat. This particular couple are a direct reference to Jean Antoine Watteau's paintings as these two characters appeared in several of his works. The fountain too is a nod to the garden scenes of Watteau. Although inspired by Watteau's fêtes galantes, this painting is not a direct copy of any one of his works. Andrew's signature cavalier Spaniel jumps up at the couples feet and another couple can been seen strolling under an arch in the background. The painting is unsigned.
The painting has been presented in its original Louis XV style frame. A particularity beautiful artefact in its own right, this gilt frame has swept and pierced corners and rails with built up acanthus leaf ornamentation. Many frame makers of this period were influenced greatly by Jean Antoine Watteau, this may be why this frame so suits its painting.
On wood panel.
