About the Item

Hans August Lassen (1857–1927) – "Im Atelier des Malers" (1887) Artist: Hans August Lassen Title: Im Atelier des Malers (In the Painter’s Studio) Date: 1887 Medium: Oil on Panel Dimensions: Framed: 38 x 33 cm Artwork: 24 x 18 cm Signature: Signed in the upper left corner Provenance: Includes papers with a description of the painting This exquisite oil painting on wood by the esteemed Hans August Lassen, dated 1887, is a masterful example of 19th-century genre painting, depicting a detailed and lively scene inside an artist's studio. The carefully arranged composition features a group of elegantly dressed figures—possibly art patrons or students—engaging in discussion and admiration of a grand artwork in progress. Lassen’s attention to period costume, atmospheric lighting, and meticulous detail is evident throughout the scene, lending it both historical authenticity and narrative depth. Lassen, known for his interior scenes and meticulously executed historical compositions, often depicted subjects from the artistic and academic worlds. His work reflects influences from Academic Realism and the Romantic tradition, capturing the spirit of the era with rich colors, refined brushwork, and masterful perspective. The painting is encased in a striking ornate period frame, further enhancing its historical significance and visual grandeur. An exceptional piece for collectors of 19th-century European genre paintings, this work is not only a remarkable artistic achievement but also a glimpse into the cultural world of art during Lassen’s time.

"Flemish genre tavern scene"
Located in Edinburgh, GB
Unidentified Artist 17th-Century Tavern Scene Oil on canvas Framed: 113 x 103 cm Canvas: 96 x 91 cm This 17th-century oil painting captures a lively tavern scene, a popular subject in Dutch and Flemish genre painting of the Golden Age. The composition is rich in character and storytelling, depicting a group of men engaged in a card game, with coins, letters, and drinks scattered across the table. A standing woman, possibly a barmaid or concerned onlooker, leans in, while a man enters from the left, holding his hat and appearing amused by the game. In the foreground, a small child tends to a jug and tankard, adding a touch of humor and domestic realism. Executed in oil on canvas, the painting showcases earthy, warm tones and rich chiaroscuro, emphasizing the candlelit glow of the scene. The artist masterfully captures the textures of fabrics, wood, and metal, giving depth and dimension to the environment. The expressive faces and animated gestures highlight the social interactions typical of Dutch and Flemish tavern paintings...

An auction at Drouot's in Paris.
By René Francois Xavier Prinet
Located in Paris, FR
An auction at Drouot's in Paris. Oil on canvas. Signed lower right. Around 1900-1910. René François Xavier Prinet (31 December 1861, Vitry-le-François – 26 January 1946, Bourbonne-les-Bains) was a French painter and illustrator who drew his subjects from middle-class society. He was born to Henri Prinet, an Imperial Prosecutor in Vitry-le-François. A promotion led to him being posted in Paris, where they lived in a home not far from the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts. His father painted as a hobby and was supportive of his desire to study art, having him seek the advice of Louis Charles Timbal [fr], a well-known church painter and friend of the family. Around 1880, he began his studies in earnest, in the studios of Jean-Léon Gérôme; remaining with him until 1885. That year, his painting "The Infant Jesus" was accepted for display at the Salon. This was followed by studies at the Académie Julian. At this time, he also became associated with a group of young artists known as the Bande Noire (Black Stripe), which included Lucien Simon, André Dauchez...
