About the Item
This minimalistic still life painting captures the quiet anticipation of Advent through the gentle glow of a single burning candle on an Advent wreath. The evergreen wreath, adorned with some berries, evokes a sense of tradition and warmth. Soft shadows flicker across the background, enhancing the peaceful atmosphere. The lone flame symbolizes the beginning of the Advent season—a moment of reflection, hope, and the promise of light in the midst of winter darkness.
