About the Item
Still Life Violin & Sheet Music Oil on Canvas Signed Hessler, Framed :
A finely rendered trompe-l’Œil still life attributed to Otto Rudolf Hessler ( German 1856- 1942) depicting a violin resting across an open book of sheet music, accompanied by a leather-bound volume, a rolled manuscript, and additional papers arranged upon a dark tabletop. Executed with remarkable attention to detail, the composition captures the textures of polished wood, aged paper, and gilt bindings with striking realism.
This work reflects the academic realist tradition of late 19th- and early 20th-century Germany, where Hessler is known to have produced similarly meticulous still lifes. The dramatic contrast of the illuminated objects against the shadowed background enhances the sense of depth, while the subject matter—musical instruments and books—conveys both cultural refinement and the quiet poetry of study. Oil on canvas, signed “Hessler” lower right. Attributed to Otto Rudolf Hessler (1856–1942). Presented in an ornate period-style giltwood frame.

About the artist :
Otto Rudolf Hessler (German, 1858–c.1942) was a painter trained in the academic tradition, born in Leipzig in 1858. He studied at the art academies in Leipzig and Karlsruhe, where he became a pupil of the noted painter Ferdinand Keller. Like many artists of his generation, Hessler likely traveled to major artistic centers such as Munich, Paris, and Italy, absorbing influences that shaped his style. His oeuvre includes genre scenes, landscapes, figure compositions, and still lifes, all characterized by careful modeling, balanced compositions, and refined use of light and color. Works attributed to Hessler are signed in variations such as “H. Hessler” or “O.R. Hessler,” or " Hessler" . His works have maintained a steady presence at auction, appearing regularly in European and international sales. . Hessler is believed to have died around 1942, leaving behind a body of work that reflects the enduring appeal of late 19th- and early 20th-century academic realism.
