Artwork Description

Oil on canvas, ready to hang.

Signed on the front.

This artwork comes with an external frame

The 19th cent. Dutch pewter coffee pot is a time stamp for the style, as is the pewter plate and tazza on the edge of a table laden with summer fruits. A composition is only as good as the quality of props used in it. To create a composition in which the objects are also as important as the color combination one has to chosen carefully as not to clash with the overall picture. Although it has sharp bold colors in places they mute into the overall painting giving it an age old feel as if it is painted in another century. This painting is not created with any short cuts, photo's, projections, modern tricks or copied from an already existing painting.

All art by Jos Kivits

A painting of this calibre is and always will be an eye catcher when people realise it has not been created with shortcuts and tricks, but genuinely by discipline and artistry without smoke and mirrors. It is a work I cannot get away from as it is in my soul to paint what every eye can see without the help of any kind of trickery or Painted in 2005 and several times perfected and varnished over the years. This very work has never been exhibited, although one similar depicting different objects was revealed in Jos’ 2018 exhibition.

The style and technique is considered ‘Classical European’ and first exposed to Australia by some well-known earlier artists like Hans Heysen, Arthur Streeton, & Besie Davidson.Apples and pears, glass of red wine,  opened wall nuts, and a 18th century fruit knife, all on a stone ledge
