Description: | This work by Vincelet, a flower and fruit painter is typical of his oeuvre. The paint has been applied thickly, creating a three dimensional quality, which gives a rich and expressive appearance to this work by a tormented artist who lived in poverty and committed suicide in 1871. Vincelet worked for low prices and is known to have sold works imitating that of Diaz and Delacroix. His works were shown at the Paris Salon of 1869 and 1870, but he does not seem to have achieved success during his lifetime. However, he did produce a large number of works, examples of which examples can also be seen at the museum at Greenock and at Le Musée de Saint-Etienne. | Subjects: | still life | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Vincelet, Victor (French artist, 1840-1871) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8797... | Go to resource |
