Robert Weise was active in the late 19th Century, early 20th Century and lived in Germany. He is known for portrait and still life painting. This painting of a outdoor still life in a garden is a wonderful representation of his work, with beautiful details and light hitting his subject effortlessly. We are reminded of the great Master, Sargent, as Weise was an admirer of his work. The flowers and tea set are executed with nostalgia as we are brought to this place in time seamlessly.
