Description

'A Treat From The Master's Table' by Arturo Orselli (Italian, 19th Century).

Italian painter, renowned for his genre scenes, Arturo Orselli presented a variety of characters, scenes of life in taverns, mythological subjects, as well as representations of gentlemen, horsemen and soldiers. In his paintings and drawings, Arturo Orselli multiplies the representations of wealthy people in richly decorated bourgeois interiors.

This is a fine example of Orselli's work. The opulent interior to the background boasts gilt framed parlour doors, ornate panelling and artworks. The humorous scene depicts a gentleman boasting the finest cloth with a gleaming waistcoat, cane and gold pocket watch falling from his pocket, gazing with amusement at his dog who is begging for sugar lumps from the table. Signed lower right.

The work is housed in a highly decorative glazed frame with low reflectivity art glass.

An extremely fine work.
