Post-Impressionist Still Life Oil Painting on Canvas attributed to C. Paris - A Post-Impressionist still life oil painting on canvas after C. Paris. The composition features an eclectic arrangement of objects set against a vibrant ochre-yellow background, all resting upon a heavily draped dark green cloth. The items include a large light-green handled amphora, a decorative ceramic bottle with geometric and floral motifs in shades of red and green, a smaller dark-blue vase with a landscape panel, and a globular vase decorated with stylized brown and blue flowers. A dark, high-shouldered glass decanter positioned to the right features a notable reflection detail, depicting a miniature artist at an easel within a lit studio interior. A small figurine of a woman in a wide skirt and hat sits in the foreground. To the left, a wooden artist's easel is partially visible, topped with a draped red cloth. The work is executed with thick, expressive brushwork and visible impasto. The artist's signature, C. PARIS, is painted in dark green in the lower right corner. The painting is housed in a Late 19th or early 20th-century gilt wood and gesso frame with egg-and-dart moulding. No other maker marks or labels are visible on the reverse.
