Child With Parrot, German School Eighteenth Century
Panel representing a child or teenager, a parrot on his arm.
The child wears a wig, he wears an elegant blue coat, silk stockings and a shirt adorned with fine lace. He sits on a purple Genoa velvet seat embroidered with gold and holds his arm leaning on a table covered with a cloth. On the table, a precious finely carvedwooden mirror of flowers and human figures and gold is leaning against a fictional wall. His hat, a tricorn adorned with an embroidered ribbon, is placed on the table, as well as an open sachet of almonds.
The child holds on his left hand a superb parrot with red, blue and gold plumage, to whom he strains an almond. A sheet defines the scene in the background, which itself is part of a window frame.
Oil on panel.
German school of the eighteenth century.
Beautiful carved and gilded wood frame (dimensions: 39 cm x 44 cm).
By its majesty and its symbolism, this portrait of a child inscribed undoubtedly in the course of the aristocratic portraits of the seventeenth and early eighteenth century.
Far from constituting an official and cold portrait, it gives off an indescribable emotion, a great sweetness and a certain poetry.
Very good original conditions.
