It is a still life with a modern feel, characterized by metallic reflections and color contrasts.

Subject and Style: The painting depicts a composition dedicated to the moment of pouring wine or an aperitif: a tall silver-plated metal jug (or carafe) with a handle dominates the center, flanked by a bottle, two stemmed glasses, and a deep blue plate with lemon slices and a knife. The style is realistic, with particular attention to the rendering of the metal's sheen and the glass's transparency, which gives the objects volume against a neutral, nuanced background.

Material and Finish: Oil painting (the certificate states "oil on canvas," mounted on a rigid support/cardboard). The work is protected by glass and framed in a gilded wooden frame with a light-colored fabric mat. The Certificate of Authenticity signed by the artist is attached to the back, listing the title, technique, date (1985), and the historical valuation at the time (800,000 lire).
