Flegel, Georg1563 Olmütz - 1638 Frankfurt/Main Breakfast of Grapes, Nuts, Chestnuts and Bread. Oil on oak. 38,7 x 48,6cm. Framed. Verso: panel maker`s stamp. Provenance: Private estate, Stuttgart. Assessment from Dr. Hana Seifertová on November 12th, 2004. Assessment from Dr. Anne-Dore Ketelsen-Volkhardt on January 24th, 2011. "This image of a laid table of snacks belongs to the much admired themes of Georg Flegel, who belongs to the first specialists in still lifes of the 17th Century. He varied the so-called breakfasts or snacks (Dutch Ontbijtje) throughout his oeuvre in different ways and often in many of his editions. It is in this realm that our image of Breakfast with Grapes, Nuts, Chestnuts and Bread belongs to. It represents a small snack, one which only the well-to-do society could enjoy: beside bread and butter on a white and blue decorated plate are the secretly depicted grapes in a silver bowl; white wine in a pitcher, a glass cup produced in Germany, and finally the hazelnuts displayed in an expensive Chinese bowl. Chestnuts and medlars, as well as half of a lemon (an expensive fruit at the time) are displayed in two simple tin cans. Beside the lemon is a knife with an ornamental handle. This entire image can be seen as a representation of the dining at the time." (Dr. Seifertová)."After first glance regarding the painting, the motifs and the composition, as well as the format, the image has large similarities with two other Breakfast still lifes from Georg Flegel 1566 - 1638: Breakfast with Grapes, Crayfish and Bread, oil on wood, 39 x 47cm, Monogrammed on the blade of the knife, Brotmuseum, Ulm; Large Breakfast with Fruit, oil on canvas, 40 x 48cm, private collection. Due to these similarities, it is in my opinion that "Breakfast with Grapes, Nutes and Bread" can be attributed to Georg Flegel." (Dr. Ketelsen-Volkhardt).

A fine Chinese Canton ivory and painted brise fan, late 18th century formed of twenty-six guard sticks, very finely carved and pierced with flowers, birds and butterflies, with foliate and flower swags above three finely painted ivory cartouches, two circular and one oval with European scenes of the `sailor`s return` on one side highlighted with a gold border, and flower posies on the other, the stick ends carved and pierced with alternating birds and flowers with gold border on one side, the lower section with a smaller cartouche carved with a pagoda amongst trees, the end sticks more deeply carved with flowers and birds, the pivot with paste mount Fans were a popular Chinese export item with the earliest fans dating from the early 18th century. There was an influx of fans to Europe and America during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, with them becoming very fashionable with Western ladies of the 1800s. Some of the finest brise fans of the type seen in this example were made during the same period, with the same fine quality painting most likely done by skilled artists of the time. The carved designs used on fans are often mirrored on contemporary porcelain, such as the foliate swags seen here, are also seen on famille rose export porcelain of the same period.
