A very pretty small still life oil on canvas, signed Sarpe and dated 1979, depicting a brass mortar with its pestle, garlic, and an egg against a soft background of brown and green tones. The work is meticulous, with luminous contrasts. The richly molded, Rococo-style frame of wood and gilt stucco beautifully complements the piece.
The canvas is landscape format, 27 x 22 cm; the frame is 40 x 35 cm and 6 cm thick. The painting is in very good overall condition; the frame has been partially regilded and discreetly repaired at the top; the canvas is clean, with no missing pieces or tears. Approximately 1.2 kg.
