George Weissbort
Impressionist still life with Bread, Cheese and wine on a dinner table interior

Circa 1970

About the Item

This still-life painting by George Weissbort exemplifies his mastery of classical realism and meticulous attention to detail. The composition is elegantly restrained, featuring a rustic arrangement of food and drink atop a draped table. A wheel of cheese, partially sliced, sits at the center of the scene, its textured surface catching the soft, diffused light. Nearby, a knife rests on the table, reinforcing the quiet narrative of an interrupted meal. Two glasses filled with red wine add a rich contrast to the muted tones of the cloth and background. The folds and creases of the tablecloth, striped in white and red, are rendered with remarkable precision, emphasizing Weissbort’s ability to capture the tactile qualities of fabric. To the right, a deep blue cloth drapes over the edge of the table, its dark hue providing a striking counterbalance to the lighter elements. The background is softly blended, creating a subdued atmosphere that enhances the timeless quality of the painting. The careful composition and skillful lighting recall the traditions of 17th-century Dutch and Flemish still-life painting, where objects were arranged to suggest themes of abundance, simplicity, and the passing of time. Weissbort’s work reflects a reverence for everyday objects, elevating them through his precise brushwork and rich tonal variations. The painting invites viewers to appreciate the quiet beauty of ordinary moments, celebrating the artistry found in life’s simple pleasures. The painting came from the estate of the artist.
