Rectangular dinanderie panel depicting a still life. The central composition features a clever self-reference, representing an ovoid vase characteristic of Claudius Linossier's own creations, generously filled with a bouquet of flowers and foliage. The floral design is rendered through a subtle interplay of oxidations and metallic tones (gold, silver, and copper), which stand out brilliantly against a dark, textured background.
The artwork is beautifully showcased in its wide, original frame created by the renowned Lyonnais cabinetmaker André Sornay. Made of light wood (ash / beech) with a highly pronounced grain, the frame features Sornay's emblematic "cloutage" (studded) technique. Small, evenly spaced metallic nail heads are aligned to highlight the joinery and geometric lines of the woodwork.
Signed and dated "1939 CL.LINOSSIER" in the lower right corner of the composition.
