About the Item

This 20th-century still life by George Weissbolt is a masterful composition that exudes sophistication and quiet elegance. The painting captures a carefully arranged table setting featuring a selection of seafood, wine, and other fine delicacies, evoking the traditions of classical still-life painting while incorporating a modern sensibility. At the heart of the composition, a lobster and a crab rest on a blue-trimmed platter, their rich textures and warm hues contrasting against the crisp white tablecloth. Nearby, a bottle of wine, another bottle chilling in an ice bucket, and two glasses filled with a golden liquid suggest an atmosphere of indulgence and refinement. The inclusion of small red apples and a tin labeled “Blanc Bit” adds further visual interest and balance to the arrangement. Weissbolt’s use of muted tones and soft, natural lighting creates a sense of calm and realism, while the careful rendering of textures—from the glass reflections to the delicate folds of the cloth—demonstrates his technical skill. The subdued background ensures that the eye remains focused on the rich details of the foreground, reinforcing the timeless quality of the work. Framed in an ornate gold frame, this painting continues the still-life tradition that dates back to the Dutch Golden Age while embracing a more contemporary aesthetic. It speaks to the pleasures of fine dining and the artistry of everyday objects, inviting viewers to appreciate both the beauty and transience of life’s simple luxuries. The painting came from the estate of the artist.
