It has beautifully painted fruits pears, grapes and other fruits on a plate, a candle, copper teapot, striped teacup, and small dish. Set against a green tablecloth, blue curtain, and subtle window view, it highlights light interplay, depth, and everyday beauty through loose brushstrokes and a rich palette.

Danish in origin, its post-impressionist style echoes Christine Swane’s harmonious colors and abstracted forms with Cubist layers, as in “Arrangement with Stone Vase” (1942). It parallels Anna Syberg’s spontaneous floral depictions of organic vitality and impressionistic energy, like “Forårsblomster i glasvase” (1900) or “Blomstrende bladkaktus” (1903). The domestic arrangement and tonal richness resemble Karl Larsen’s oil still lifes blending realism and abstraction, influenced by Paris in the 1920s-1950s. It also aligns with Ole Kielberg’s freer colors, light effects, and garden-inspired compositions, as in “Still life with flowers.”
It’s a beautiful still life that will add richness and breadth to your collection. See less
