A wonderfully colourful vintage still life painting, full of texture and character. An original still life, believed to be oil on board, with wonderfully thick, expressive brushwork and richly textured passages of paint.

An arrangement of garden vegetables surrounds a golden-yellow vessel, with bright orange carrots, rosy red radishes, leafy greens and an onion set against a dark, atmospheric background.

What makes this painting particularly appealing is the way the paint has been applied. Thick, expressive brushstrokes give the vegetables an almost sculptural quality, particularly the leafy greens and the richly coloured central vessel.

There is something rather charming about its slightly naïve style, with its bold shapes, strong colours and uncomplicated composition.

Presented in a gilt-finish wooden frame which complements the warm yellows and oranges beautifully. A decorative piece for a kitchen, dining room or country-style interior.
