TU-ChristiesThe majority of Gustave Courbet’s still lifes were executed in 1871 and 1872, during and shortly after his confinement in Sainte-Pélagie prison for his part in the Commune uprising. During his time in prison Courbet turned to still life painting, drawing inspiration from the apples, flowers and other fruits that were brought to him by his sister Zoé.
Our 19th Century European Art auction takes place today at Christie’s New York.
