Fruit Still Life | Oil on Panel

A charming 1940s still life rendered in oil on panel depicting a simple arrangement of bananas, an orange, and a green pear on a white plate against a subdued olive background. Executed in a restrained, painterly style with visible brushwork and an emphasis on form over detail, the composition recalls the quiet domestic still lifes of European and American academic and modernist traditions. Though unsigned, the painting demonstrates confident handling of color and light, with warm ochres and greens creating a pleasing tonal harmony. Housed in a period wood frame and accompanied by provenance from a New York City collection, it is an attractive decorative work well suited to both traditional and contemporary interiors.
