Large Still Life with Fish Oil-on-Canvas in Gilded Frame 152cm x 112cm Other style 19th century
This exquisite and large still life oil-on-canvas painting portrays an abundant range of food items carefully arranged on a table against a dark backdrop. At the center, a large fish rests on a red dish, surrounded by a brass container filled with white asparagus and leafy greens. To the left, a white pie sits near pieces of bread, an orange, and a knife, while to the right, a bowl of red berries is placed next to a tall goblet and a small group of fish and peeled shrimp as well as lemons and more herring.The central symbol in this painting being fish is considered a symbol of the origin of life in accordance with the traditional cosmogonic concepts of most peoples of the Earth; life originated from water. During ritual worships, fish dishes, as well as fish sacrifices were presented to all gods of the underworld and the moon goddesses of water, love and fertility.The artist of this piece uses predominantly warm colours and dramatic lighting from the right side to highlight the textures and surfaces of the items, With its very generous dimensions, measuring 152.3 in width and 112cm in height, this painting would make a fantastic and eye-catching centre piece of any luxurious and large space such as a living room or a hallway. It is dated back to early 1900.
