Cutia cu portocale

About this work

This painting shows a simple setup on a table. There’s a yellow woven basket with red apples spilling out of it. Next to it, a blue cloth drapes over the edge of the basket. On the table, a white plate holds a few more apples and a green lemon. The background is plain and dark, focusing all attention on the objects up front. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, almost like the artist painted fast. The colors pop—bright reds, a deep blue, and the warm yellow of the basket—without much detail. If you like this style, look up impasto next.
