Fire 1990

"Fire" is a 1990 painting by American artist Bo Bartlett, known for his photorealistic style. The artwork depicts a simple, yet powerful scene: a fiery blaze engulfing a red metal barrel. This evocative portrayal of fire, captured with striking detail, speaks to the inherent beauty and destructive potential of nature. Bartlett's mastery of light and shadow, particularly in the rendering of the flames, adds a dramatic intensity to the composition.
