MEAL TIME Painting

The painting shows an unusual scene, where red fruit, apples, lie on a huge table, next to a bowl. However, the central subject is a man sitting on a chair, holding cutlery in his hands. The chair is high, but compared to the gigantic table it appears as a miniature. The background of the painting is maintained in calm, subdued colors, shades of gray and brown, which gives the room an atmosphere of severity and space. The style of the painting is surrealism. The use of light and shadow is masterful, emphasizing the elements of the painting in a subtle way. The artist plays with proportions, which makes the viewer think as if they were witnessing a fairy tale. Doesn't it look like a scene from a dream? Such paintings can evoke a smile and embarrassment at the same time. This man is about to eat a meal, but this meal is beyond his reach. Art can mess with your head, right? And this apple, despite its simplicity, seems to be a symbol of something bigger, unattainable. The painting can be interpreted as a reflection on the feeling of insufficiency in the face of everyday challenges. A perfect example of how the little things in art can make you think deeply and sometimes just make you laugh in a way you don't expect.
