Another artist of the last century who was eminently skilled, yet not as well-known to most art collectors. Look closely at this wonderfully composed still-life painting – that this is a scholar’s desk goes without saying. A hint of trompe l’oeil suggests that you may be able to pick up those glasses and read the titles of the books and the pages lying beneath. This is no doubt a scholar’s desk, or maybe it is the desk of the artist himself. We leave it to your inspired imagination.
