Table for One 

Joseph Lorusso, a contemporary realist painter, depicts a solitary figure seated at a table in a restaurant in his painting "Table for One." The composition is characterized by muted colors and a sense of quiet contemplation. The lone diner, dressed in a yellow jacket and cap, appears lost in thought as he sits alone in a space that is both intimate and slightly melancholic. The use of light and shadow highlights the figure and the details of the interior, emphasizing the feeling of solitude and introspection. This painting captures a common human experience, offering a glimpse into the private moments that make up everyday life.
