About this work

This painting shows two cut watermelons sitting on a dark, rough wooden surface. The rind is green, and the inside is bright red with black seeds. The fruit looks juicy and fresh, with a slight shadow under one half. The artist signed it in the corner, but the date is unclear. The watermelons are the only focus—no background or extra objects. If you like this, look up still life next.
