Dirk Filarski (Amsterdam 1885 – Zeist 1964) Still Life of White Ara, Dead Hare and Statuette of Cockatoo (Still Life of White Macaw, Dead Hare and Statuette of a Cockatoo) (before 1930) Signed lower right Oil on canvas, 99.5 x 80.1 cm Provenance: – Collection Ernst Filarski (son of the artist), the Netherlands - Private collection, the Netherlands Note: Filarski regularly painted still lifes in the 1920s. Renée Smithuis, specialist in the Bergen School and Dutch Expressionism, writes the following about the artist in her monograph DHW Filarski (2005): “Many of his still lifes show that Filarski usually worked expeditiously. That does not have to be negative, after all; one of Filarski's great examples, Vincent van Gogh had preceded him. Filarski was a passionate and charged gentleman and apparently had to express the tension that was accompanied by the swift build-up of a work – this was not at the expense of quality.”
