Still Life with Squash, Gourds, Stoneware, and a Basket with Fruit and Cheese
Located in New York, NY
Provenance:
Selma Herringman, New York, ca. 1955-2013; thence by descent to:
Private Collection, New York, 2013-2020
This seventeenth century Spanish still-life of a laden table, known as a bodegón, stands out for its dramatic lighting and for the detailed description of each object. The artist’s confident use of chiaroscuro enables the sliced-open squash in the left foreground to appear as if emerging out of the darkness and projecting towards the viewer. The light source emanates from the upper left, illuminating the array, and its strength is made apparent by the reflections on the pitcher, pot, and the fruit in the basket. Visible brush strokes accentuate the vegetables’ rough surfaces and delicate interiors. Although the painter of this striking work remains unknown, it is a characteristic example of the pioneering Spanish still-lifes of the baroque period, which brought inanimate objects alive on canvas.
In our painting, the knife and the large yellow squash boldly protrude off the table. Balancing objects on the edge of a table was a clever way for still-life painters to emphasize the three-dimensionality of the objects depicted, as well a way to lend a sense of drama to an otherwise static image. The knife here teeters on the edge, appearing as if it might fall off the table and out of the painting at any moment. The shape and consistency of the squash at left is brilliantly conveyed through the light brush strokes that define the vegetable’s fleshy and feathery interior. The smaller gourds—gathered together in a pile—are shrouded partly in darkness and stand out for their rugged, bumpy exterior. The stoneware has a brassy glaze, and the earthy tones of the vessels are carefully modulated by their interaction with the light and shadow that falls across them. The artist has cleverly arranged the still-life in a V-shaped composition, with a triangular slice of cheese standing upright, serving as its pinnacle.
Independent still-lifes only became an important pictorial genre in the first years of the seventeenth century. In Italy, and particularly through the revolutionary works of Caravaggio, painted objects became carriers of meaning, and their depiction and arrangement the province of serious artistic scrutiny. Caravaggio famously asserted that it was equally difficult to paint a still-life as it was to paint figures, and the elevation of this new art form would have profound consequences to the present day. In Spain Juan Sanchez Cotan...

Chrysanthemums
Located in Hillsborough, NC
'Chrysanthemums' is a mid-century painting, oil on canvas, with impasto deep layers of thick paint, creating color and texture. The petals literally leap from the surface in a way that is difficult to capture in photos. The impasto technique gives this work tremendous depth and a particular vibrance that makes it stand out and be noticed! Influenced by Matisse and Scottish Colourists, Donald Bain (1904-1979), painted 'Chrysanthemums' in post-impressionist brilliant, cheerful color, in stark contrast with the bleak years of World War II. It is a triumph of joyful expression.
Bain exhibited at the Royal Academy and the Royal Scottish Academy. His work appears in the Scottish National Galleries, Hunterian Art Gallery, Glasgow Museums, City Art Centre in Edinburgh, Perth, Paisley and elsewhere.
Born in Renfrewshire, Bain attended Moffat Academy and soon after travelled to Paris in the 1920s where he was influenced by Matisse and later Cezanne, then returned to Glasgow in 1940. He studied art in the Glasgow School of Art where he met artists from the Glasgow Boys artist group, and the Scottish Colourists. Donald Bain, joined with Scottish Colourist Fergusson and together co-founded the 'New Scottish Group' a group of artists in and around Glasgow with shared views of the world and experience in the art of the Continent. Chrysanthemums dates to 1944, soon after forming the new movement of Scottish artists and their first exhibition in 1942. After WW II, Bain returned to France then moved back to Glasgow in 1948. He worked as a printmaker, theatre scenery...
