About the Item

Still life - Paolo De Robertis Italia 2002 - Oil on canvas cm.50x70 The painting is inspired by the work of Abraham Van Beyeren, a Dutch painter of the Baroque era and one of the greatest still life painters.The composition of this painting can be characterised as a simpler version of a type of banquet or Pronkstilleven that flourished in Antwerp in the 1740s. In this 'pronkstilleven' (Dutch for 'sumptuous still life') De Robertis depicts a wide variety of luxurious objects, such as the silver bowl and tray, the Venetian glass, shrimps and different varieties of fruit. These are expressions of wealth as well as a demonstration of the artist's pictorial virtuosity.
