Follower of Van Kessel

At Herry in Beaune, France, they sell on 12 April 2015 a "Flemish School, 18th century" still life with monkey (actually a pair of still lifes), estimated at 600 Euro.

The first of the two works is a copy of or variation of the work of Jan Van Kessel. The quality is clearly not there to attribute it to him, but the inspiration can not be doubted.

The above, also by a follower of Van Kessel but clearly a better work than what is offered here, was sold at Weschler's in 2006 for $17,000.

Of these other two variations I could only find small images. The uppermost is a Jan Van Kessel from the University of Virginia Art Museum. The lower one was sold as by Jan Van Kessel III.
