Description from the seller
Title: Still Life of Fruits
School: European (20th Century)
Style: Realist
Technique: Lithography
A refined still life with a classical composition is presented, where an abundant variety of fruits — white and black grapes, peaches, plums, and watermelon — are arranged on a table covered with a greenish cloth. The scene is organized in a harmonious balance, with particular attention to the volume, texture, and sheen of each element.
The lighting treatment stands out, highlighting the transparency of the grapes and the velvety appearance of the peaches, achieving a strong verisimilitude. The neutral background, accompanied by a warm-toned side curtain, introduces depth and a scenographic air that recalls the tradition of the European classical still life. The brushwork is precise and detailed, evidencing a clear naturalistic vocation typical of the 20th century with influences from earlier schools.
The work is presented in a carved and gilded wooden frame, richly ornamented with vegetal motifs and relief scrolls. Its aged finish and its volume contribute presence and character, reinforcing the classical aesthetics of the ensemble and notably enhancing the pictorial composition.
Observations:
The work may show slight signs of use consistent with its age. It is recommended to review the images for a better assessment of its condition.
The work may incur damage during transport even with proper packaging. In such a case, we will require photographs of the damages to proceed with compensation. Customer satisfaction is always our priority.
Exceptionally, shipping costs may be affected by a surcharge due to causes such as being outside a continental territory, excessive dimensions, or weight of the item. PremiArt will in no case cover this surcharge.
Due to border issues with Switzerland we are obliged to inform that shipments longer than 1 meter in length or height to that destination will not be carried out.
Dimensions: 61 x 91 cm
Dimensions with frame: 81 x 112 cm
