(active in Antwerp circa 1615–1669)
A still life with a lobster, fruit and a vase of flowers,
fragments of a signature lower right,
oil on canvas, 105 x 141 cm, framed
Though his precise dates are unknown, Andries Benedetti was a pupil of Vincent Cernevael in 1636, and later moved to the studio of Jan Davidsz. de Heem. Much influenced by his master, Benedetti’s work imitates the innovations of de Heem, creating sumptuous compositions with skimming light and combining the rich colourful, typically Netherlandish palette with the more muted tones popular in Northern paintings.
