DESCRIPTION | A beautiful and expertly painted still life oil painting of A BRASS JUG AND MUG AND A SHERRY GLASS. Painted by the late listed South African artist DENZIL HERRING (1940 - 2008). The painting is done on artist board (fine treated canvass on hardboard) and it is framed in a very attractive and expensive good quality gilt frame with cream inner frame to display the artwork to it's best effect (This is a recent frame which is from a later date than the artwork which was painted c 1970) . The artist has signed the artwork at bottom left and it is undated. The artwork measures 610 x 410 mm in the frame and the artwork alone measures 450 x 250 mm. You can see the painting as it is sold in the image above. There are three more images and further particulars below. Please have a look at them and ask a question if there is anything you are unsure about. |
CONDITION | Both the artwork and frame are in very good condition and it can be hung and displayed as is. |
A very well executed artwork with excellent composition and great use of light by an accomplished and well known South African artist. Denzil Herring was a prolific painter of still life paintings who occasionally ventured into other themes in his artworks (such as portraiture and wildlife art). His most productive period was between the 1960s and 1980s. Regrettably he was another one of those South African artists of considerable merit who never really got the recognition he deserved. His art is very decorative and I believe that he is still one of the best painters of still life paintings produced by this country. Here is your opportunity to buy one of his typical still lives featuring glass and brass objects against a dark background and with his typical white impasto highlighting. I must be honest with you and inform you that this painting will, in my opinion, never become worth a fortune - but here is your opportunity to become the owner of a Denzil Herring at a reasonable price. It will look great on your wall and it will always have good resale value. |
