Vintage Mid Century Modern Original Still Life Oil Painting - Teapot and Fruits

1960s

About the Item

TEAPOT AND FRUITS Size: 39 x 49 cm (including frame) Oil on board A charming mid-century still life painting that celebrates the beauty of everyday objects through colour and form, painted in oil onto board. An elegant white teapot punctuates the center of the composition, accompanied by a basket of bananas, two mangoes, and some green pears resting on a wooden surface. The objects are placed against an abstract backdrop comprising varying shades of green. The artist has used an uplifting and vibrant colour palette. The brushstrokes are deliberately smooth and the lines are clean, creating flat planes of colour that emphasise shape and balance over intricate detail. This oil on board is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some scuffs and losses to its right edge but this is only visible when viewed from an angle. It is in good condition otherwise. Please note all of the artworks we sell are vintage and unless otherwise stated, their condition is typical for their age. This can sometimes include slight changes in colour, yellowing to the varnish, and minor bumps and bruises. We have tried to include as many close-up photos as possible.
