Still Life with Statuette and Books 1923

"Still Life with Statuette and Books" is an oil painting created in 1923 by Samuel Peploe, a prominent Scottish artist known for his vibrant and expressive style. This still life features a collection of objects including a statuette, books, and a teacup. Peploe uses bold strokes and rich colors, particularly in the drapery and the books, to create a sense of depth and movement within the composition. The subject matter and the artist's distinctive style place this piece firmly within the realm of Post-Impressionism.
