With a dramatic contrast between light and shadow, this is not your everyday still life painting - it calls attention to the ways in which art can bring a mundane scene to life. A great painting for a fish restaurant or kitchen. Artist name: signed (unidentified at present) approx date: 1944, dated on the back. Canvas size: h 81 cm x w 99 cm x d 2 cm medium: oil on canvas condition: reasonable for age. Age-related crackle in the top right-hand corner. Please see the photographs.
