Signed on the front.

The antique Turkish coffeepot has been in the family for a very long time, and I inherited it, to add to my collection of painting props. The roemer glass is Reinish Frechen and the pipes are typical 17th century Dutch. On the left old fashion glasses, on the newspaper and the pocket watch watch on the right with two silver coins are typical symbols that the person was from the middle class and left his corner for just a moment to open the door for the person he was expecting. An interesting painting for a corner where a husband would read a book, or to hang in an office.

All art by Jos Kivits

The feeling of holding something in your hands that is hundred of years old, like the pewter and the ceramic Japanese vase, gives me a feeling of agelessness. It vibrates through my entire body and to spend weeks painting something like this climaxes to an explosion in my imagination. 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.
