About this work

This image shows a pear sitting on a woven chair. The pear is brown with a green stem and leaf still attached. The chair has a ruffled skirt and looks like it’s made of a checkered fabric. The artist used fine lines to create texture, especially in the chair’s fabric. This style is called cross-hatching. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists build shadows with lines.
