Adriaan de Braekeleer
A kitchen interior - Adriaan de Braekeleer (1818-1904)

1862

About the Item

Oil on canvas Signed lower left: "Adriaan De Braekeleer, 1862" In Adriaan de Braekeleer's painting, the rustic charm of a kitchen interior comes alive with the warmth of a scene steeped in domesticity and bounty. At the heart of this captivating tableau stands a man, the epitome of rustic vitality, offering forth the spoils of his successful hunt. De Braekeleer's brushwork captures the interplay of light and shadow within the kitchen, illuminating the textures and hues of the scene. The warm tones infuse the setting with a sense of coziness, inviting viewers to revel in the simple pleasures of hearth and home. Adriaan De Braekeleer was a Belgian artist. He was a nephew and pupil of painter Ferdinand De Braekeleer (1792-1883). To avoid name confusion with his uncle, he used the name Adriaan. He chose an artistic career possibly encouraged by his uncle's successful example and the favourable prospects this profession offered him. His brother Jacobus Joannes De Braekeleer became a sculptor. He painted genre scenes, mainly interiors of inns, kitchens and workshops such as smithies. His oeuvre is situated within romantic realism. When a tiger escaped from the Antwerp zoo on 7 June 1868, Adriaan de Braekeleer shot it. The artist made a painting of this heroic act, which is kept in the Zoo.

  • Lizbeth Mitty, Melting Light, 2019, oil on canvas, 12 x 12, Still Life
    By Lizbeth Mitty
    Located in Darien, CT
    Born in Queens, NY to a family of artists, inventors and actors, Lizbeth Mitty grew up painting and writing. Her work has been exhibited in galleries and museums in both the United States and abroad and is held in public and private collections including the The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The New York State Museum, The Orlando Museum of Art, The Zimmerli Archive, The U.S. State Department, and Trierenberg Holding AG (Austria). My studio is located in Brooklyn, NY. Described by New York Times critic Ken Johnson as a combination of “painterly verve and hellish beauty” — Mitty's work has long been concerned with examining and amplifying the intrinsic abstract beauty of deteriorating or overlooked corners of urban architecture and interiors. In 2015, one object, the chandelier, rose up from detritus to dominate her body of work. Spectacular, illuminated and intricate, the chandelier is evocative of grandeur. In contrast, for much of Mitty's career, scrap yards and other sites of urban devastation, locations of organized chaos, formally beautiful, yet apocalyptic and terrifying. Similarly, the chandeliers speak of decadence, sadness, elegance, death and hope. By 2017, the chandeliers began to open and morph into architecture in the round. Gazebos and scrap dominate a verdant post-apocalyptic landscape...
