CHARDIN, JEAN-BAPTISTE SIMEON
Paris 1699 - 1779
Workshop
Title: The Soap Bubble Blower.
Technique: Oil on wood.
Measurement: 31 x 26cm.
Frame/Pedestal: Framed.
Provenance:
Private ownership, Germany.
Jean-Baptiste-Siméon Chardin made at least four versions of the "bubble blowers": three are in American museums (New York, Los Angeles and Washington) and the fourth, lost, is known through an engraving by the engraver Pierre Filloeul (1696 - 1754 ca.).
The present painting, which is oriented in the same direction as the print, shows stylistic features very similar to those of Chardin. The painting was probably made in his workshop. Maybe it could be a work of his son Jean-Pierre: The painting would then not have been copied from the engraving, but from the lost painting as a challenge in his educational process.
We are grateful to Alastair Laing, London, for his kind support in cataloguing the present painting.
