Franz Josef Geiger

Franz Josef Geiger is a Flemish Baroque painting artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Bavarian State Painting Collections.

Franz Josef Geiger left no movement label, but their 1678 work in the bundle shows the precision and depth of Dutch still-life painting in full swing. Notice how light caresses the polished pewter and the way the half-peeled lemon curls back like a question mark. Next, tilt into the same quiet drama with “Still Life with Nautilus Cup,” another Dutch still life where shadows pool around silver and fruit.
