Condition

The painting is lined. The picture is vibrant, highly-textured and visually impressive in person. The artist's process has led to losses in some of the more heavily painted areas, particularly at upper left. Under UV, there are several horizontal lines of inpainting at upper right and lower right as well as some scattered small spots in the leftmost glove to address losses incurred during the drying process. The center of the composition evidences no retouching and this work is otherwise in good condition.

拍品資料及來源

This vibrantly colorful still-life is the largest and most lavishly detailed from Delaunay's Neo-Impressionist period.   The picture dates from 1906 or 1907, when the stylization of Delaunay's compositions was heavily indebted to the influence of Henri-Edmond Cross, whose solo exhibition in Paris he probably saw in 1905.  Delaunay appreciated Cross's unorthodox color palette and the distinct patches of color that gave shape to his compositions.  Taking this technique a step further in his own work, Delaunay applied his medium in large, rectangular blocks that resembled stones of a mosaic.  Other examples of this technique from 1906 are Portrait du Henri Carlier and Paysage au vaches, both in the collection of the Musée National d'Art Moderne, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris.

Nature morte aux gants also demonstrates the influence of the Fauves on his compositions.  Delaunay had freed his palette from the colors of the natural world, and in this picture his color choices are largely a mode of unmitigated expression rather than a vehicle for naturalistic representation.  In his monograph on the artist, Gustav Vriesen observes that "the short blunt Neo-impressionist line no longer determines the structure but serves instead to decorate the picture in accordance with a new feeling for ornament."  Discussing the present composition, he continues: "Thus, in Still Life with Gloves, the ornamental design of the rug is 'stitched' across the entire picture surface.  A persian faience vase adds further to the Oriental atmosphere" (G. Vriesen, op. cit., p. 20).
