Early 19th century English Antique Still life of peaches, grapes, melon outdoors

circa 1820

About the Item

Wonderful Early 19th-century Still life of different fruits on an earth bank. Very much painted in the same way as George William Sartorius painted his still lives this piece has all the skill and quality of one of his paintings. After researching the work of Sartorius we found that few if any of his attributed paintings were signed. This must have been a decision that the artist made whilst painting each piece. The use of a well lite peach in the foreground was one of his compositional traits and along with the darker background giving this piece a dramatic feel. The painting has been framed in an Antique English maple wood frame which would date from the 1830s

    By CHARLES THOMAS BALE
    Located in Woodbury, CT
    Outstanding English 19th century still life of fruit, a German Stein with silver top in an interior. Charles Thomas Bale was born in Soho, London in 1849, the son of Thomas Bale, a basket maker. His older brother Thomas Charles Bale (1831-1899) was an artist and picture restorer. He lived with his family in St James, Westminster and although little is known about his education, he would have undoubtedly received encouragement and drawing tuition from his brother. Bale started exhibiting in 1866 at the Institute of British Artists, Suffolk Street. He also exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1872, the same year he married Caroline Leathem. Together, they spent their married life in St Pancras.

Bale’s work was influenced by the English still-life artists George Lance and William Duffield...
