Manner of Joachim Beuckelaer, early 19th Century- Preparing food in the kitchen; oil on canvas, 103 x 147 cm. Provenance: Strachan Family, Stonehaven, Aberdeenshire.; Private Collection, UK. Note: Beuckelaer's development of the genre of market and kitchen scenes was extremely influential on the development of still life art in Northern Europe as well as Italy, and the anonymous artist of the present work, which also recalls paintings by Floris Gerritsz van Schooten (c.1585-1656) and Benjamin Blake (1757-1830), was presumably looking to hispositions.Please refer to department for condition report
