AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Fascinating oil still life on a very textured canvas, 50x60 cm, signed bottom right.
The work depicts a floral composition, rendered with thick impasto and soft colors. In the center of the scene stand out a bowl with fruit, a pear, apples, a blue-decorated container, and a vase with flowers, arranged on a dark surface with a painterly background rich in chromatic variations.
The painting presents a lively and material rendering, with visible ridges and bold brushstrokes especially in the fruit, flowers, and lighted areas. The decorative setup and the color palette suggest a placement in the second half of the 20th century, roughly the 1960s/1970s.
Work attributable to the English school of the 20th century, signed bottom right.
