STILL LIFE IN THE STUDIO
Description dimensions: 58 x 48 cm (h x w) period: 1860s Oil on cardboard. Signed lower left: “S. Pinkas”. According to the expert opinion prepared by PhDr. Nadezda Blazicková-Horová, “Still Life in the Studio is unquestionably the work of Sobeslav Hippolyt Pinkas, and was probably painted while the artist still resided in France. Pinkas studied at the Academy in Prague, then under Berdellé in Munich. In 1854 he left for Paris, where he continued his studies under a painter who was quite fashionable at the time, Thomas Couture He sought the subjects for his paintings primarily in the area around Cernay-la Ville; these were landscape scenes, social genres, but also portraits of villagers and people from the painter’s immediate surroundings, as well as interiors of houses in the countryside. With broad brushstrokes, heavy impasto paint application, and a maximum effort to impart a realistic rendering, Pinkas portrayed a part of his studio. In 1867 Pinkas and his family returned to Bohemia, alternating between his ancestral home in Prague’s Lesser Quarter and his farmhouse in Budy/Sázava, and he painted only occasionally. This is one reason why his works appear only very rarely in Prague art auctions.”
