Description
Théodule Augustin Ribot (1823–1891) Still Life with Apples Oil on panel. H_23.5 cm W_31.5 cm Glossy varnish, slight signs of wear. This painting is comparable to another work by Ribot, which was sold at Auctie’s on 20 September 2024, lot 287. Théodule Ribot was a French realist painter, closely associated with Henri Fantin-Latour and the American painter James Whistler. He distinguished himself in the depiction of genre scenes, employing a restrained colour palette and powerful chiaroscuro with great mastery. From a very early stage, he was compared to the 17th-century Spanish painter José de Ribera. This painting perfectly illustrates his style, contrasting thick, light blocks of colour with dark, barely brushed backgrounds using the ‘réserves’ technique
