Jean-Baptiste Monnoyer (1636-1699), Entourage de - Grand coupe à fleurs
- Oil on canvas.
- Wonderful vase by Jean-Baptiste Monnoyer, probably one of the most gifted still life painters of the Louis XIV period. The impressive quality of the painting is highlighted by its excellent state of preservation, and the presentation of the painting in a style frame probably created in the mid-19th century to house this work of art. The composition follows the scheme so often repeated by the illustrious French florist: on a classical entablature, in front of a cloudy backdrop, there is an exquisite classical vase filled with flowers of numerous species. The precision of the brushstrokes is that of a master, and every detail, every shine, every leaf and every petal shine with their own light in this high-quality painting.
