A. Salneuve (XIX-XX) - Stilleven

A moody, dramatic still life in the in 1925 ??
On a dark table against a near-black background sit:
• A large blue-and-white porcelain (Chinese-style) jug
• An overturned wicker basket spilling white grapes
• A dead game bird (partridge or pheasant) with rich plumage
• Scattered fruits: grapes, pomegranate, peach, pear
Strong chiaroscuro lighting, deep shadows, and a slightly somber atmosphere — very much an academic or traditional still life with excellent attention to texture and reflection.
