About the Item
GREEN APPLE WITH GLASSES
Size: 70.5 x 61.5 cm (including frame)
Oil on canvas
A refined mid-century still life that presents a quiet tabletop arrangement composed of a dark glass bottle, a delicate wine glass holding a small measure of red wine, and a vivid green apple, painted in oil onto canvas.
Set against a cool, muted background, the composition balances solidity and translucence, with the reflective tabletop subtly mirroring the forms above it. A secondary, shadowed bottle in the background adds depth and a sense of spatial calm, while loosely suggested vertical planes hint at an interior setting beyond the table’s edge.
Executed in a distinctly modernist mid-century style, the painting favours simplified forms and tonal harmony over strict realism. The colour palette is restrained yet expressive: smoky blue-greys and slate tones dominate the background, offset by the rich emerald of the bottle, the jewel-like crimson of the wine, and the luminous, almost electric green of the apple. These carefully placed accents draw the eye and create a gentle visual rhythm across the surface.
The brushwork is confident, with visible strokes lending texture and life to the painted surface. Broad, matte passages contrast with more fluid, translucent handling in the glassware, where light and reflection are suggested rather than meticulously detailed.
This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary silver painted wood frame with visible grain. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
