Hendrik Frans van Lint, lo Studio (Antwerp 1684-1763 Rome)

Though an uncommon subject in van Lint's oeuvre, comparison can be made with a vegetable still life sold Christie's, London, 8 July 1983, lot 50 that is signed and dated 1735 (see A. Busiri Vici, Peter, Hendrik e Giacomo Van Lint: Tre pittori di Anversa del '600 e '700 lavorano a Roma, Rome, 1987, pp. 262-263, no. 316, illustrated).
