Description
Follower of Piat Joseph Sauvage,
Belgian 1744-1818-
A pair of trompe l'oeil friezes, each depicting putti around a medallion, en grisaille;
oils on canvas, 54.7 x 111.5 cm.
Provenance:
The collection of Christian Levett.
Private Collection, UK.
Note:
The present works are clearly inspired by Sauvage's distinctive trompe l'oeil paintings, typically executed en grisaille to evoke the appearance of a sculpted plaster relief, and which were themselves influenced by the work of Sauvage's teacher Marten Jozef Geeraerts (1707-1791). The subject of putti with garlands is one to which Sauvage often returned, as in a composition of his in oils which sold at Sotheby's, Paris, on 25 June 2008, lot 60.
