About this work

This painting shows a table with three pomegranates, a bowl, and a small vase. The fruit’s deep reds pop against the dark background. Light hits one side of each pomegranate, making them look almost round. Hrandt Avakian painted this in the 1960s, though the exact year isn’t clear. The thick paint on the fruit’s skin gives it texture you almost want to touch. It’s not flashy—just quiet realism. Have you seen Paul Cézanne’s still lifes? Try looking up his work next.
