Still life with a basket of apples Print

Classical, at first glance, still life of fruits and simple household items has become a real apotheosis of avant-garde painting. It reflected everything that the artist considered innovative techniques in art. Bright, expressive, as if vibrating and tearing from the canvas paints, sharp lines of strokes that emphasize the shape of objects, but do not make them detached from the environment, a lot of air and an indescribably vivid impression of the image - these are the main features of this picture. The canvas depicts ordinary things that could be found in everyday life of any family at that time. This is a dark glass bottle, most likely a wine bottle, a large basket full of ripe, juicy apples, a white ceramic plate of food, a crumpled tablecloth or a large towel. All this freely settled on the kitchen table made of light wood, against the background of a simple whitewashed wall. The apples in the basket attract with their brightness and volume. Side light falls on them, emphasizing the shape and making the colors literally glow against the dark background of the basket. And although they have a completely natural color - yellow, green, red "tanned" barrels, the fruits depicted by the master acquire a special sound. This is the quintessence, the collective image of all ripe apples in the world. The characteristic style of the artist in this canvas is perfectly recognizable even without a signature. Sharp, lively, dynamic strokes, a combination of bright colors and dark contours, a play of colors and expressive forms distinguish this still life from the rest of the master's works. Reflections on the bottle and reflections from bright colors on the table give it relief and texture, it is immediately clear that this is a smooth and shiny glass. The same goes for the rest of the items. All of them are painted in large, even sweeping strokes, as if sculpting shapes from paints, but the background wall is painted in small frequent strokes, creating play of color. The image of apples has become a landmark in the work of Cézanne. His paintings are popular and are of interest to amateurs and professionals today.
