Composition with Jug and Lemons

“Composition with Jug and Lemons”
18 x 24 in., oil on canvas, framed in a dark wood-effect walnut float frame
 
This still life explores the timeless interplay of form, shadow, and light in a quiet domestic setting. A simple earthen jug and two bright lemons rest upon a table draped with white cloth, their forms illuminated by a soft yet deliberate beam of sunlight. The cool gray-green tones of the panelled background create a calm, architectural rhythm that contrasts beautifully with the warmth of the fruit. Inspired by the compositional discipline of Cézanne, “Composition with Jug and Lemons” invites the viewer to linger in the balance between structure and serenity — a study in simplicity and timeless harmony.
