EDITORS COMMENTS
Cornelis Norbertus Gysbrechts' Trompe l'oeil with Violin, Music Book and Recorder, painted in 1672, is a captivating masterpiece of Flemish art from the seventeenth century. This exquisite oil on canvas painting, currently on display at the Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen, Denmark, showcases the artist's exceptional skill in creating a three-dimensional illusion. In this still life, Gysbrechts masterfully depicts a violin, music book, and recorder, each element rendered with such intricate detail that it appears as if they could be real objects. The violin, with its richly textured, wooden surface and meticulously painted strings, is positioned at the center, its bow poised as if ready to play. To the left, a quill pen and inkwell rest on a sheet of parchment, adding an element of scholarship and learning to the scene. A music book lies open beside the violin, its pages filled with intricate sheet music, while a recorder, complete with a delicate bell, sits atop the book. The use of color and shadow adds depth and dimension to the painting, further enhancing the illusion. The violin's deep, rich hues contrast with the lighter, more muted tones of the music book and recorder, creating a visually striking composition. The quill pen and inkwell, with their dark, glossy surfaces, add a sense of contrast and texture, further emphasizing the three-dimensionality of the scene. This Trompe l'oeil painting by Cornelis Norbertus Gysbrechts is a testament to the artist's extraordinary talent and the enduring allure of Flemish art from the seventeenth century. A must-see for any art enthusiast, this masterpiece continues to captivate and inspire viewers at the National Gallery of Denmark.
