Flask & Fruit

SOLD.

A charming mid century modernist still life in oil dated 1949, painted onto canvas which has then been laid down to backing board.

The composition depicts a vase of flowers among some fruit and another vessel. The painting features deep and vivid colour, creating a lovely moody effect. There is a timelessness to the painting, which focuses on shape, colour, line and form. The artist has intentionally made bold black outlines visible, drawing our attention the shape and form of the objects depicted, which have been set against a background that plays off the colours of the objects.

The painting is housed in a unique distressed bronze frame, with an inner linen lined window. There is some wear to the upper left corner of the painting as shown in the close up. The frame has some general signs of ageing.

Size: 45 x 38 cm (including frame)
