About the Item

Frans Moormans (Dutch, 1831-1893) The Goldfish Bowl, c. 1870 Oil on panel, 8 1/2 x 6 1/4 inches FRAMED: 19 1/2 x 14 1/4 inches (approx.) Signed at lower right: “Frans. Moormans” Born in Rotterdam, Frans Moormans studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp and later taught at the Academy of Fine Arts in Amsterdam. He exhibited widely in Europe and won a medal at the Exposition Universelle in Paris in 1889. His genre paintings, examples of which are in museums in Montreal and Rouen, include multi-figural works and single figures in decorative interiors. The meditative quality of this interior scene is reminiscent of the great Dutch painter from Delft, Johannes Vermeer (1632-1675) who emerged from relative obscurity during the late nineteenth century.

19th Century genre oil painting of a young woman pouring tea
Located in Nr Broadway, Worcestershire
Pierre-Louis Bouchard French, (1831-1889) Une Bonne Tasse de Thé Oil on canvas, signed Image size: 23 inches x 13.75 inches Size including frame: 35 inches x 25.75 inches A lovely portrait of a young woman pouring a cup of tea, by Pierre Louis Bouchard. The woman is depicted wearing a green striped dress with a white apron, whilst on her head is a mob cap decorated with a red ribbon. She is shown standing before a table containing a porcelain tea service on a silver salver. She is painted with her head turned towards the viewer as she expertly pours the tea into a cup. The mode appears similar to others figures the artist painted and could well have been the same person. Pierre Louis Bouchard was born Pierre-François Bouchard in Lyon on 2 May 1831 to Pierre Bouchard and Amelie Baron. In 1845, he began studying at the École des Beaux-Arts in Lyon where he was taught by Jean-Claude Bonnefond (1796-1860). He then moved to Paris where he became a pupil of Jean-Léon Gérôme (1824-1904) at the Ecole des beaux Arts. He also studied under Jean-Hippolyte Flandrin...
