Portuguese 18th Century Carved Stone Column
$6,500.0039.50"H x 16"W x 15.25"D
Dimensions: 39 ½” H x 16” W x 15 ¼” D
A fabulous 18th century, or earlier, carved stone column from Portugal, best described as Gothic or Romanesque in style, using the familiar acanthus motif around the capital.

Belgian Early 20th Century Still Life in Gilt Frame
$695.0031.13"H x 33"W x 2.50"D
Dimensions: 31 ⅛” H x 33” W x 2 ½” D
This early 20th century still life is a classic composition of mixed fruits and vessels on a wood table, however the moody lighting conditions show the remarkable talent and perceptive observations of the artist, Aurélien Dehon. Arranged before a murky background, a ceramic pitcher is softly illuminated by the light coming from a nearby window which is barely reflected on the dark brown demijohn to the right. In the foreground is a white platter of fruit that appears to be bananas and apples. A complementary gold gilt frame (repaired) protects the delicate work, which shows its age in a craquelure texture, some loss of pigment, and a small hole near the mouth of the pitcher. Signed by the artist “Dehon” and a small sticker pasted to the back with unclear title and address. Please view the detailed images to see the current condition.

A low plinth base cut with a serpentine silhouette juts out slightly around each column, bracing the console structurally and creates another surface for display or storage. Cleaned and polished with a French paste wax, ready for your interior. Please view the detailed images as there are several areas where the grain has lifted or split which have since been stabilized.
