About the Item
This neoclassical trompe l'oeil painting is an allegory of summer. It would have been hung with allegories of the other three seasons over the doors of a salon. Ceres, Roman goddess of agriculture, represents summer, and points to her handmaidens harvesting wheat. She wears a sheaf of wheat as a tiara in her hair. A child representing fertility toys with a basket of succulent fruits. The panel was painted to imitate a stone bas-relief, with shadows cast upwards to correspond with light that would have emanated from windows and candlelight below. Trompe l’oeil panels were in vogue in late 18th century France when the Belgian-born painter Piot-Joseph Sauvage, who specialized in them, was appointed Peintre du Roi under Louis XVI on the eve of the revolution.

French Trompe L'oeil Drawing Circa 1800
Located in New York, NY
This trompe l'oeil drawing depicts the artist's tools -- a black and a red crayon, and a folding steel ruler that was painted with silver pigments, which have blackened with age. They're shown on a sheaf of papers that include a medieval manuscript page, a musical score, and a group of prints.
The unifying theme is the artistic patronage of the Medici, the Grand Dukes of Tuscany, who intermarried with the Habsburgs, who were the Holy Roman Emperors.
Among the papers are prints by Stefano Della Bella, the Florentine artist who worked for the Medici. They depict a negro page with a horse, and portraits of Lorenzo Lippi...

Small Painting by Jean Hugo from 1927
By Jean Hugo
Located in New York, NY
Great grandson of the famous writer Victor Hugo, the painter Jean Hugo (1894-1984) was in the thick of the Paris art scene between the wars. A member of the avant garde, he was a friend of Picasso, Cocteau and Colette and was associated with the Neo Romantics. His small gouaches on paper were avidly collected by Dr. Albert Barnes, and can be seen today in the Barnes Collection in Philadelphia. Hugo's most desirable work -- landscapes, interior scenes, set designs -- date from the mid 1920s to the late 1930s. This whimsical painting, signed and dated 1927, is set in a curtained, classical interior furnished with Victorian lighting fixtures...
