Apple and Strawberry Still Life | Vintage Fruit Canvas Wall Art Print

About Apple and Strawberry Still Life

A white cloth table holds a clear plastic punnet packed with strawberries, its lattice sides catching light at the front left. Behind it sits a round tin printed with a vintage illustration of a woman in a red suit, her dark hair and pale face reflected across the curved metal. To the right, a cream cup with a gold rim and painted pink flowers holds a spray of small red blossoms. Two red and yellow apples rest beside loose strawberries scattered across the cloth.

The colour is carried almost entirely by red: the berries, the blossoms, the woman's suit and a red bandana folded at the lower left. Light falls from the upper left, leaving soft shadows under the apples and a dark brown pocket behind the tin. The surface reads as watercolour, with washed transparent layers in the fruit and crisp white paper left bare for highlights on the punnet and the cloth.

Suited to a kitchen wall above a bench or dresser, a dining room beside a sideboard, or a breakfast nook in a country or cottage-style home. It sits well with timber furniture, cream cabinetry and vintage china, and picks up red accents in tea towels, rugs or painted chairs.
