This artistic work brilliantly illustrates a rustic interior opening onto a lush garden, offering a window into a world of tranquility and contemplation. The composition centers on a table covered with a green tablecloth, carefully set with an elegant arrangement of objects. In the foreground, a large terracotta jug holds a sumptuous bouquet of brightly colored flowers, each petal catching the light in a way that breathes vitality and freshness into the scene. Next to the jug, a generous bowl of fruit adds a note of simplicity and abundance, recalling the importance of nature in our daily lives. The colors used are soft and calming, with shades of greens, browns and reds that complement each other harmoniously. The arrangement of the elements on the table, with a carelessly rolled napkin, suggests a scene of everyday life, intimate and peaceful. The wooden door, opening onto a green garden, creates a fluid transition between indoors and outdoors. The garden in the background is painted with remarkable finesse, each leaf and branch capturing the essence of nature. The soft light that spreads across the scene evokes an atmosphere of calm and serenity, transporting the viewer to a state of contemplation and inner peace. This painting stands out for its harmonious balance between natural elements and everyday objects, inviting the viewer to appreciate beauty in simplicity. Technical mastery, combined with deep artistic sensitivity, makes this work a captivating and unforgettable piece. This piece has an attribution mark,
