Oil on canvas • one-of-one piece

A quietly expressive Italian still life — fruit gathered into a low copper vessel, softened by time and painted with an easy, confident hand.

There’s a looseness to the brushwork that gives it life without overstatement. Grapes are built in quick, rounded strokes, the copper bowl holds warmth and weight, and the background dissolves into a soft, tonal field that lets the composition breathe.

The kind of piece that works just as naturally in a kitchen as it does layered into a more considered interiors  

Sourced in Italy.
