watercolor
From the collection of Victoria and Albert Museum
Pinapple with other fruit is a 1837 watercolor by William Henry Hunt, depicting Fruit, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a pineapple sitting on a rough surface, its spiky green leaves fanning out. Next to it are a few plump purple plums, a yellow pear, and a small bunch of red berries. The background looks like a patch of grassy ground with some dry plants scattered around. The pineapple’s rough skin is painted with tiny brushstrokes, making it look almost textured. The colors are bright but natural, with the green leaves standing out against the pineapple’s yellow-brown surface. If you like this kind of close-up fruit painting, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum.
William Henry Hunt (London 28 March 1790 – 10 February 1864), was an English watercolourist.
