Still life with musical instruments by Peter Klas

Still life with musical instruments by Peter Klas

One of the famous artists of the Dutch school of painting Peter Klaas wrote beautiful realistic still lifes, in which he carefully recreated the life of the city burghers. In his works, one feels a love for things that surround a person in everyday life.

The objective world finds its philosophy: every thing is created with skillful hands, whether it’s freshly baked bread or a glass of the finest glass made by a skilled craftsman. Things serve a person, create the necessary warmth and comfort, decorating his life.

You can spend a long time looking at the still lifes of Klaas, on which each subject is written so carefully, with such an excellent transfer of the texture of the material and the play of light on its surface that you can not help wondering if this thing can actually be so good as it is beautiful in this picture.

In the paintings of the master everything matters, nothing is accidental or secondary. Each subject can tell its story, and they all tell about the life of the citizens of the XVII century.
