Atmospheric still life in the fashion of the times; the painterly rendition of the various materials and surfaces is masterfully executed

This still life was painted in 1900. On a table is positioned a flower vase that is decorated with Asian motifs and holds two blooming hydrangea branches. To the right of the vase is displayed a red casket with golden fittings on top of which a candlestick bearing a red candle is placed. In the foreground a beautifully elaborated cloth is draped. The left edge of a framed picture looms into the right half of the background. On its canvas a stack of books is visible. In places, the objects are painted very naturalistic and detailed, whereas sometimes the shapes are only indicated.



The painting is signed and dated with ‘Rüpplin 00’ in the lower right part. Canvas and frame are in a good condition with slight signs of age and wear. A thin crack cuts the surface on the right. At the edges of the painting the color flaked off where the frame has rubbed. The framed dimensions are 81.5 x 59.5 cm, while the canvas itself measures 66 x 44 cm. (nlu)
