Description
This midcentury oil painting on canvas by French painter Marcel Saint-Jean (1914-1994) portrays a still life in an interior. A coffee pot filled with fresh flowers is placed on a table. Another table can be seen in the background, along with dried flowers hanging from the ceiling. An evocative palette and textured brushwork vividly render the different materials of the scene, setting the colourful fresh flowers against the cool white of the ceramic pot and the earthy brown of the table. The bold perspective of the table and window is softened beautifully by the organic lines of the flowers. The painting evokes the beauty of a country kitchen and showcases authentic details, such as the shape of the coffee pot and the dried flowers hung on a rope. This large work is mounted in a black and gilt frame and signed by the artist.
