A charming and brilliantly executed mid-century modernist still life painting, executed in oil onto board and dated 1966. Small yet impactful in its composition, the painting presents three pears against a blue background. The pears, rendered in soft yellows and greens, are arranged in a balanced yet dynamic grouping, with subtle shadows anchoring them in space. This piece is executed in a modernist style, with a strong emphasis on shape, light, and composition rather than realistic details. The artist has used a painterly approach with visible, angular brushstrokes that add a sense of structure and depth to the forms. The colour palette is harmonious, featuring warm tones for the fruit contrasting beautifully against the cool blue background. This oil on board is housed in a beautiful wood and gilt frame with multiple profiles, that suits the painting very well. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. Size: 29 x 37 cm (including frame)
