Toutes les enchères / Autres / École Française (c. 1880) - Chez Maxim's
- Oil on canvas. Original canvas. Signed with initials and dated 1885. - This 1885 still life is a visual manifesto of the Hedonistic Belle Époque, a period when haute cuisine became one of the fine arts. The composition celebrates controlled excess: a cooked lobster, whose coral red glows like a trophy on the table, surrounded by a variety of silvery-scaled fish that still seem to retain the shine of sea salt, symbolizing the absolute freshness demanded by the most discerning palates of fin-de-siècle Paris. The axis of refinement is defined by the silver champagne cooler, where the sparkling bottle rests among ice fragments that the artist depicts with a vibrant, cold brushstroke. This detail is not incidental; champagne was the social lubricant of the great boulevards and Maxim’s private rooms. The work captures that moment of gastronomic anticipation, where the rough texture of the crustacean contrasts with the smooth surface of the chilled glass, evoking a world of endless banquets and a bourgeoisie that found in the pairing of seafood with Reims wine the ultimate expression of its triumph and sophistication. - Image dimensions without frame: 82 x 60.5 cm / 93 x 70 cm with exclusive custom frame. At Montbaron Gallery, we are pleased to offer our clients an exclusive selection of artworks, all of them unique, original and unrepeatable. Each piece in our gallery is the result of deep dedication, a creative vision and masterful technique, qualities that guarantee its authenticity.

Originality is the basis of our commitment to excellence, and therefore every painting or sculpture that is part of our collection is carefully selected to ensure its singularity.

Thus, we guarantee that every piece leaving our gallery is a unique item in the world, with no replicas, and a showcase of the innovation and passion of the artists we work with. Certain lots, due to their age and value, require an export permit issued by the Ministry of Culture. Although this is an administrative procedure, it is essential to ensure the authenticity of the work and its free international circulation. Montbaron Gallery is committed to offering its clients original, unique and unrepeatable artworks, guaranteeing the authenticity and quality of every piece in our collection. To ensure transparency and trust in every purchase, we offer a digital Certificate of Guarantee, signed by a certified art historian. This certificate certifies that the purchased work has been authenticated by our specialists, who verify its authorship, origin and condition. The Certificate of Guarantee includes complete details about the piece, such as its author, creation date, technique used, and dimensions. The digital Certificate of Guarantee will be issued at the client’s request, providing an official reference for the purchased piece. This document will be sent digitally and will be signed by an art historian from our gallery, ensuring its validity and support. We are committed to client satisfaction and confidence, so any questions about authenticity or condition of the work will be addressed professionally and diligently. To request your Certificate of Guarantee, please contact us through our usual channels. As experts in art logistics, at Montbaron Gallery we are committed to ensuring that each piece reaches its destination safely and in the best possible condition. To this end, we work with a network of professionals specialized in art transport, who guarantee maximum care throughout the process. It is important to note that the shipping cost prices indicated in the listing are indicative and subject to changes depending on various circumstances. These include fluctuations in transport market rates, changes in delivery location, the size and weight of the work, as well as possible extraordinary circumstances, such as fuel cost fluctuations or adjustments in customs and import tariffs. The final shipping cost will be calculated precisely based on these factors, and the client will always be informed beforehand before proceeding with the shipment. Our aim is to offer the best possible service, adapting to each client’s needs and ensuring the artwork reaches its destination quickly and safely, with no surprises. The frame shown in the previous images has been added to the work by a third party or by the seller, so it is not an integral part of the object. This frame is provided to you at no additional cost so that, when the work arrives at your home, it can be displayed immediately on your wall. Accordingly, damages to the frame that do not affect the integrity of the work will not be accepted as valid grounds for filing a claim or requesting a cancellation.
