Early 20th Century Oil on Canvas Painting Marc Sterling

This is an impressive 19th Century large-scale oil on canvas by Ukrainian artist Marc Sterling (1895-1976). The still-life composition draws the viewer in with its depiction of assorted fruits, a delicate vase embellished with blooming flowers, and an intricate charger, offering a feast for the eyes with its rich textures and soft colours. The painting is presented in its original Italian Cassetta frame, a fine example of traditional Italian design. The frame showcases a flat inner frieze, complemented by elegantly raised mouldings on the inner and outer edges. Signed and dated by the artist, this piece measures 67cm x 78cm and represents an exquisite blend of artistic mastery and historical framing techniques, making it a standout addition to any collection.
