About the Item
A finely executed pair of 19th-century trompe-l’œil bird still lifes by Italian painter Michelangelo Meucci (1840–1890), each meticulously rendered in oil on cardboard. The compositions depict game birds suspended by string, painted with remarkable precision and lifelike texture — hallmarks of Meucci’s naturalistic style.
The artist’s delicate handling of plumage, shadow, and light demonstrates a mastery of academic realism, reflecting the influence of Italian and Northern European still-life traditions. Both works are signed and dated by the artist, and presented in gilded, period-style frames that complement the refined palette and intimate scale.
An elegant and rare matching pair, ideal for collectors of 19th-century still life and naturalist painting.
