We haven't yet deciphered the signature at the bottom right edge of the canvas, but the work speaks for itself. Exciting handling of the volumes of the objects in a way reminiscent of Cezanne and the later Fauvists, especially in the color range as well as the bold brushwork and employment of the palette knife to create a vibrant surface. We particularly note the artist's subtle observation of image refraction through the glass and the water it contains. Top-notch in every way. From a collection in San Francisco.

Canvas measures15" x 18" and the frame is 27" x 24" x 2 1/2" See less
