ANTIQUE PAINTING, BASKET OF RED ROSES, ACHILLE CESBRON, STILL LIFE WITH FLOWERS, OIL ON CANVAS, 19TH CENTURY. (QF783)
The antique floral still life painting presented here is a refined floral composition with a basket of roses and Jeté de roses, an oil on canvas painting
from the 19th century. A delicate still life with rose flowers, gathered at the moment of their fullest bloom. The composition features a rich arrangement
of cut flowers, dominated by large roses: pink, red and white, arranged in the foreground on a horizontal surface. Behind the composition appears a woven
basket containing additional roses. A harmonious and luminous palette, which gives the artwork a natural and refined character.
Antique painting with flowers, floral still life signed lower right by Achille Cesbron, a 19th-century French painter, specialist in floral still lifes and flower
compositions, particularly renowned for his roses.
Achille Théodore Cesbron (1849–1913) was born in Oran, Algeria, and died in Paris. He trained in Paris at the École des Beaux-Arts, where he was a pupil
of important masters of French academic painting, including Léon Bonnat, Louis Français and Fernand Cormon.
His artistic career developed between the second half of the 19th century and the early years of the 20th century, during a period of great success for genre
painting and French floral painting.
He first exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1877, beginning a long and regular presence at the exhibitions of the Société des Artistes Français.
Throughout his career, he received several distinctions, including an honourable mention in 1882, a third medal in 1884 and a second medal in 1886.
In 1889, he was also awarded a silver medal at the Exposition Universelle in Paris.
His painting is characterised by particular attention to the naturalistic rendering of flowers, the delicacy of the petals, the luminosity of the colours and
the decorative balance of the compositions. Cesbron achieved particular recognition for his representations of roses.
His work is now found in several French museums, including the Musée d'Orsay, the Musée des Beaux-Arts d'Angers and the museums of
Châteaudun and Nantes. The antique painting is presented in a gilded frame.
The antique frame and the oil painting have been carefully and professionally restored. 1930s.
