Jules Jacques Olivier De Cocquerel
Fish, lemon and copper

About the Item

Work on canvas Dimensions with frame : 65 x 85 x 6 cm This captivating work presents a still life of great finesse, featuring an assortment of fresh fish, spread out on a table. A large, richly ornamented copper vase stands next to it, adding a touch of luxury to the scene. The meticulous details of the fish's shiny scales and rich textures testify to the artist's remarkable technical skill. The bright lemon on the right introduces a striking contrast with the dark, earthy tones of the background, while the few discreet flowers bring a subtle delicacy to the composition. The skilful interplay of light and shadow accentuates depth, giving the whole a realistic, immersive atmosphere. This painting remarkably illustrates the fragile harmony between nature and man-made objects, while capturing the ephemeral beauty of marine life.

Modern Salon painting Still life MASURE Flowers Japenese "Fleurs et japoneries"
Located in PARIS, FR
Georges Paul MASURE (Active 1900s/1910s) Oil on canvas 80 x 65 cm (97 x 82cm with the frame) Signed and dated lower right "G. P. Masure / 1912" Painting exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants in 1913 (2032. « Fleurs et japoneries ») Beautiful 19th century frame Georges Paul Masure was a Parisian painter in the Montparnasse area. He exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants in the years 1900/1910. Our painting is the painting he exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants in 1913 under the number 2032 and titled "Flowers and Japaneries". It represents a still life with a bunch of flowers, a magnificent basket of oranges, a pomegranate and a Japanese sculpture with a little fisherman with a red Koi carp. 2500 years ago, when the son of Confucius was born, he received as a gift from King Shoko of Ro, a fish that was first called Koi. It represents the symbol of strength, because this fish was the only one able to go up the steam of the Yellow River. Owning a koi will long remain the prerogative of the Japanese nobility. The dominant colors in the painting are orange and red. And in Japanese Shinto...
