German school (XVIII) - Anciano comiendo

Oil on canvas depicting an elderly woman in profile holding a spoon and a bowl, in keeping with the tradition of hyperrealistic portraits from the German school. The composition is clearly reminiscent of works by Balthasar Denner (1685–1749), particularly in its naturalistic rendering of the aged face, its chiaroscuro, and its meticulous detail. Framed dimensions: 70 × 60 (height and width) Unframed dimensions: approximately 57 × 47 The painting comes from a private Spanish collection and retains an antique gilt frame. A historical report dated Madrid, January 7, 1973, and signed by an academic and art historian, considers the painting to be a work by Denner. This report will be provided to the buyer. However, the attribution has not been confirmed by international auction houses. The painting is therefore offered as belonging to the circle, school, or tradition of Balthasar Denner, and is sold as shown in the photographs. The painting displays notable pictorial quality, especially in the treatment of the face and hands and in its lighting effects. It is an interesting piece for collectors of old German or Baroque paintings.
