An vibrant mid-century interior still life painting, executed in oil onto canvas.
The composition presents a warmly lit domestic scene, featuring a hanging terracotta planter with cascading green foliage, a deep green bowl, and a striped textile draped casually across a tabletop. The backdrop is a moody, textured wash of blue, suggesting a window or a darkened interior wall, offering contrast to the brighter foreground.
Executed in a modernist style, the composition emphasises flat planes of colour and simplified forms. The palette is rich but controlled – yellow, navy blue, forest green, and earthy reds dominate the scene. The artist has used broad, confident brushstrokes and has left traces of underpainting and canvas texture visible, giving the work a spontaneous, tactile quality. The interplay between geometric shapes and organic curves imbues this still life with both structure and intimacy.
This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has very minor scuffs, but is in good condition overall.Â
