Still-Life
by PAUDISS, Christoph, Oil on canvas transferred from panel, 62 x 47 cm
German-born Paudiss likely acquired his love of light and ability to depict it in Rembrandt’s studio, where he worked in the early 1640s. His calm light, however, carries no strong symbolic charge and gives his still-lifes, which are devoid of both triviality and deep significance, the charm of pure art.
