Oil on Canvas

A charming and inviting mid-century painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

In this composition, the artist captures the essence of an afternoon in the open air, as it features a charming table setting amidst the tranquility of nature. Two blue chairs by the table invite viewers to join the scene, and we can spot a tree amidst lush greenry in the background.

The central focus rests on a teapot, a bowl brimming with an assortment of fruit, and a cup that are all set atop the table.

The colour palette is a harmonious dance of predominantly blues, greens and browns, evoking the soothing and cool tones of a summer day.

The artist displays a mastery in the medium of oil, using expressive, loose and unrestrained brushstrokes that infuse the painting with vitality, and creating a sketch-like and diaphanous effect that resembles the nature of watercolour.

This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim white frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. less
