Genoese School Of The 17th Century, Pair Of Still Life Paintings

COD 0933
Refined pair from the second half of the 17th century Italian paintings. Oil on canvas artworks depicting two wonderful still lifes of the Genoese school. In the first painting we find baskets of fruit and vegetables with splendidly painted animals. In the second painting we see a table full of vegetables, large fish with lobster and a flask of wine. In the center of the composition we see a cat who has stolen a fish and is hiding behind the terracotta vase. On the left a young boy in seventeenth-century clothes looks at us breaking the fourth wall and with an eloquent gesture raises his finger to his lips inviting silence. Paintings of notable pictorial quality and difficult to find, for antique dealers and collectors of high-period Italian painting. Elegant 19th century frames in carved and gilded wood, with several losses of gilding (see photo). Paintings already restored with relining, replacement of the frame and repainting in small spots, overall in good condition. Interior size H 91 x W 119 cm.
