The artist, unfortunately, remains unknown. The intricate design of the door lintel features an array of lush, ripe fruits and cut flowers, including grapes and peaches, arranged in a harmonious composition. The grapes, with their green and purple hues, cascade down the lintel, while the peaches, with their rosy blush, add a touch of elegance. The use of oil painting technique adds depth and texture to the image, making it a true masterpiece of the 18th century. The door lintel is a reflection of the historical significance of decorative arts during this period. The abundance of fruits and flowers symbolizes prosperity, wealth, and the passage of time. This art piece, with its intricate details and beautiful colors, continues to inspire awe and admiration, reminding us of the rich artistic heritage that has been passed down through generations.
