"Oil On Panel, Hunting Subject, Dead Jay, On A White Cloth. Late 19th Century."
Beautiful hunting still life. Dead jay, placed on a white cloth, on an entablature. In the background a large glass or a pitcher. Powerful execution, beautiful color contrasts, strength of the subject well described on a background painted in broad strokes. Strong lighting, coming from the left, which gives a lot of relief. Friendly dedication, bottom left.
