Buy OIL ON CANVAS. THE TAVERN. JOHANN FRIEDRICH FRICK

- Oil on canvas of a tavern. German.
- It is signed, and although it does not keep the original period frame, it fits perfectly with the painting.
- The author, Johann Friedrich Frick (1774-1850) was a German painter, graphic artist and engraver.
- We are not sure if he is the author of the work, as the signature is difficult to identify, but all research points to him.
- The painting depicts five figures, all of them men. Four of them are seated around a table in a tavern, and the innkeeper is standing next to them.
- Two of them are smoking a pipe and all four are drinking cognac or wine.
- The artistic quality and execution is good. The medium brushstrokes are very loose, which gives the oil painting a great liveliness.
- The painting is executed with a great diversity of colours.
- The details of the oil and the handling of the colours are really superb.
- The fact that the object has a distinctive mark or contrast is of great importance in order to be able to identify data such as its author, the place where it was made and other details.
