Peter Von <strong>Art</strong>ensArgentine born Peter Von <strong>Art</strong>ens developed his study <strong>of</strong> portraiturein Italy and matured his style <strong>of</strong> realism in Venezuela. Von <strong>Art</strong>ensis well known for his highly realistic still-life images that sharean affinity with the Spanish and Dutch Baroque artists <strong>of</strong> the17th Century.

He is concerned with resolvingthe aesthetic issues <strong>of</strong> light, form and color in the pictorialrepresentation <strong>of</strong> his subject.LOT 63PETER VON ARTENS(ARGENTINA, 1937 – 2003)Flores en vaso azul / Flower in a Blue Vase, 2003oil on canvas, 40 x 42 in.
