A floral still life with a monkey and a parrot, oil on canvas, 81 x 113.5 cm, framed
It has not yet been possible to find a convincing attribution for this still life of extremely high quality. It is a key exemplar of the European fashion for singerie, the depiction of monkeys, a fashion that reached its height during the Late Baroque and Rococco periods. Sophisticated collectors, such as the Duc de Rohan sought to decorate their entire estates in the singerie style
