Still-life with jug 1913

"Still-life with jug" is a 1913 painting by Russian-born artist Alexej von Jawlensky. It depicts a bowl of fruit, two jugs, and a green cup on a dark blue tabletop. The composition is flattened and simplified, with bold outlines and blocks of color, characteristic of Jawlensky's later works, which are often categorized as Expressionism. The colors are vibrant and expressive, creating a sense of movement and energy. The subject matter is typical of a still life, but Jawlensky's interpretation is unique and personal, reflecting his interest in color and form.
