About the Item
Flemish school of the 17th century Oil on canvas 52 x 60 cm (66 x 76 cm with the frame) Very beautiful old frame in gilded wood Good condition (a few repaints and craquelures)
The style of our painting reminds the first period of Flemish still life of the 17th century, very descriptive and meticulous. We think of painters such as Osias Beert, Jacob van Es and Clara Peeters. The very simple composition, the warm colors (the browns and reds) and a greasy and shiny touch are particularly caracteristic. This is probably a painter who specialized in fishes and close to the Antwerp painters such as Alexander Adriaenssen and Clara Peeters. The latter in particular used to arrange the elements of her still lifes very simply and detached, on a very dark background, and she was focusing on rendering the reflections on metallic objects, pieces, dishes, vases and bowls. She also had a palette of colors can became more and more restricted, to monochrome harmonies of gray and brown.
Still life painting is also a symbol game. In the center the fishes are a clear reference to Christians. On the left of the composition, myrtle's fruits, a symbol of immortality in the 17th century (myrtle being an evergreen shrub!) And on the right two clumps of butter in an earthen pot, the butter representing in the biblical exegesis the humanity of Christ as opposed to honey, which represents its divine nature. And a cut lemon testifies the bitterness of existence ! A pitcher in the background evokes the wine and therefore the blood of Christ and the sacrifice. The spoon in the center is an invitation to the viewer to taste the symbolic foods here presented. And the meaning may be to seek immortality through sacrifices by following the example of the humanity of Jesus Christ through sacrifices without avoiding the bitterness of life !

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...
