Thoughts on age of this painting

When the frame broke it was white, slightly translucent resin.
I don't know if the frame is original to the painting.

 

Here's an ebay offering of the same subject, dated 1931.

Hmm, another from a dead link ...

 

Wow that's really interesting so this is a copy of some maybe famous painting.
Otherwise how come these paintings are all painting the same vase?

Check gpt seems to think 30s to fifties then after I showed your ones it thinks: "Interwar Post-Impressionist still life painting, c. 1915–1935

It’s a single, fixed studio motif painted multiple times from the same physical setup."

 

Likely a copy, yes, but perhaps not a famous painting. For one thing, if it was it'd probably come up in an image search.

There are operations that produce multiples of the same identical painting, at fast speed. The overseas ones can be gigantic.

 

Looks to me like A.MEL didn't see the shadowed edge of the jug on the right, leaving the body of theirs somewhat deficient.

 

Yeah A Mel was not as good as the other 2

 

Then there are the ones that aren't identical, but very similar:

The eBay one Roaring IDed is described by seller as being Austrian. The one above was auctioned in Sweden.

A more free-wheeling, reversed one:

Also auctioned in Sweden. Maybe there was a television show for devoted amateur painters.

 

Think this may be the original.

For 33 EUR, it didn't sell for much more than any of the others.

 

Check gpt seems to think there was an art school or something where they set up the still Life and then whole lots of people came through and painted it.
Is that plausible or is there an original somewhere that somehow got famous....

 

I wasn't entirely joking when I suggested a television show along the lines of The Joy of Painting/Bob Ross. The left handed one interests me, as though it was painted from a projection of the image.*

 

interesting you'd say that, when i prefer yours to both of the other examples (more feeling)

 

like the stronger outlining of the petals on yours

 

* Or the others were painted from a projection of that one.

 

Yeah I don't know much about paintings but having a look I actually agree with you in terms of the feeling it does feel like it's got a bit more sort of flair to it

 

the others leave me a bit ..............but like yours more with every look

can't quite work out whats going on here though (with all the same subjects etc)

gotta be an original somewhere i would think

 

I feel like the black framed one is the only one with an original frame.

 

or all painted at different times

i'd like to see a square on centred look at yours (if you don't mindy) as its a bit skewwhiff

 

It's a bit wrinkled and loose but I don't know how to stretch it
