EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "A Study of Insects" an exquisite oil painting on copper by Jan van Kessel, the Elder. Measuring 38.5x55.5 cm, this artwork is a true masterpiece that resides in a private collection and is managed by Johnny Van Haeften Ltd. , London. The composition of this painting beautifully captures the diversity and intricacy of the insect world. From delicate butterflies to curious lizards, from colorful beetles to diligent ants, and from graceful grasshoppers to mesmerizing spiders, every creature seems to come alive on this canvas. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable as he portrays each tiny inhabitant with precision and accuracy. A snail slowly makes its way across a leaf while a caterpillar munches on foliage nearby. A cricket chirps its song as a moth gracefully flutters through the air. Even the notorious cockroach finds its place among these fascinating creatures. Jan van Kessel's ability to capture not only insects but also reptiles like geckos adds another layer of interest to this piece. The juxtaposition of delicate butterflies against scaly reptilian skin creates an intriguing contrast within nature's realm. This print allows us to appreciate the beauty and complexity found in even the tiniest inhabitants of our world. It serves as a reminder that every creature has its purpose and contributes uniquely to our ecosystem—a testament both to nature's artistry and Jan van Kessel's talent as an artist.
