Description: | Signed: yes Description: This exquisite painting on copper, one of a pair with TWCMS:C7383, is a fine example of Jan van Kessel's work, which has been extremely popular with collectors from his own time until the present day. The quality of the painting technique only emphasises the exoticness of the birds depicted, and highlights the rarity both of the subject matter, and the jewel-like nature of the object itself. Adding a humorous touch, the artist has added a song-book for the birds, which bears his signature. | Subjects: | animal (bird) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Kessel, Jan van, II (Flemish painter, 1626-1679) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8414... | Go to resource |
